They become enamored of each other in the sudden positive way of the savage, and agree to meet at sunset. The chief of the tribe to which the girl belongs, covets and demands her of her father. The father consents, but the girl rebels. At sunset, she meets her lover and tells him what her fate is to be. He tells her that when the moon shines, he will come for her and take her away. Their clandestine conversation is overheard by an unfriendly Indian and carried to the covetous chief. The lover is taken prisoner and taunted by the chief. Finally the chief raises a weapon to strike the prisoner dead. The girl jumps between and receives the blow, which wounds her mortally. The lover breaks his bonds and demands trial by conquest. This is granted. He fights with and kills the chief, and is himself elected chief of the tribe. But his heart is with the girl. He takes his own life, and the spirits of the two are seen to reunite in the Happy Hunting Ground. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
