When the trading is finished, Wentworth and the Indians are startled by the incantations of the Medicine Man. Upon inquiring, Wentworth learns that Starlight, the daughter of Chief Lone Hawk, is seriously ill, and realizing that the fanatical supplications of the Indians to the spirits will not do the sick girl any good, he ministers to her wants by giving her some of his medicine. This is observed by the Medicine Man, who vows that he will wreak vengeance upon the tribe if Wentworth is not gotten rid of. Whereupon, the Indians make the trader a prisoner. During the incarceration of Wentworth Starlight rapidly regains her strength, and one day she liberates him. Knowing that the tribe will seek revenge against her, she goes with the trader. They become separated on the desert, and Starlight manages to reach the post. The pursuing Indians are held in abeyance, and Starlight, full of gratitude for Wentworth, brings his wife and child to safety. In the meantime, Wentworth meets a party of settlers, and as he is telling them his experience the Indians put in another appearance. They are again routed and Wentworth escapes. He makes his way to Fort Wilcox, where he informs the commander of the impending attack of the Indians. The troop is about to start out to quell the outbreak when Starlight and Wentworth's wife and child are sighted. The women are cared for. The Indians, who have returned home are rejoicing, when their festivities are interrupted by the troops. Starlight has followed the soldiers, and from a neighboring hill she sees how the tribe is wiped out and the wigwams burned. She goes back to the fort, where she begs the Wentworths to make her their servant, as she is without a home. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
