In this case Johnson, the trapper, finds Peach Blossom out in the fields gathering herbs and kidnaps her. The girl sees the Indians, out on a hunt, calls to them, the trapper throws her to the ground, and then escapes. Eagle Eye, in revenge, goes to Johnson's cabin and takes his boy, who is carried to the Indian camp and turned over to Mona. She becomes a little mother to the child, refusing to permit others to touch him. Mrs. Johnson, discovering the loss of the boy, rides to the fort and informs the commander. He orders out a troop. When the Indians hear of the approach of the soldiers they break camp and take up a position in what seems a very poor tactical position in a hollow, where the soldiers can not only shoot down into them, but roll rocks among them. The Indians are captured and lodged in the stockade. Big Rock and Dark Feather scale the fence. Big Rock steals up behind the sentry, throws him to the ground and with Mona gets away. The soldiers pursue. The chief, exhausted, is overtaken and shot. The Indian woman draws a knife and plunges it into her own breast. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
