Hiram Paul and a party of emigrants are caught in a sandstorm on the desert without water. They have a small boy, Val, and a baby, Phyllis. The emigrants meet Watahnah and she furnishes the nursing mother with water and is taken in as one of the party. After a stroll in the mountains with his son, Paul returns to find the entire party massacred by the Indians; however, the old squaw has spirited away his baby girl. Many years later, Paul is a colonel, commanding a Western military post. With him are his now-grown son Val, Lieutenant Clifford, and Clifford's sister Margaret, with whom Val is in love. While scouting, Val and Clifford meet Phyllis, now a woman, with the Indians of another tribe. Clifford is struck by her beauty. Two days later, he goes alone to find the Indian girl. Val follows and observes him meet the girl, mistakes his purpose, and upon returning to the post, criticizes Clifford. Phyllis likewise is suspected of duplicity by the chief's son, who loves her. She goes to the post to appeal to Clifford, but instead, meets Val and Margaret. The suspicious Indian has followed her, and when he sees Val accuse and mistreat the Indian girl, he shoots and wounds him. Margaret wounds the Indian. Learning that his son has wounded the colonel's son, the chief decides to move the tribe. Colonel Paul decides to bring the chief's son to justice. There is a battle, and the Indians are defeated, Watahnah, the old squaw, recognizes Colonel Paul, and tells him that Phyllis is his daughter. Val wins the hand of Margaret, and Clifford that of Phyllis. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
