This Billy resents, thinking it rather disparaging to his own mother. After a pathetic scene between father and son, Billy visits his mother's grave and is found there weeping by Sergeant Casey, whom the father, Captain Allen, has sent out to look for him. When Allen leaves for the frontier station with an escort to meet his bride, Billy secrets himself in the coach, but is very sullen to the new mother, Alice. Allen receives a telegram from the fort, commanding him to investigate an Indian uprising. He sends Alice and Billy with an escort back to the fort while he, with the remainder of the command, rides to the scene of the uprising, only to find that the Indians have ravaged the town and departed. In the meantime the Indians attack the fort and while the soldiers are fighting, Billy manfully takes Alice to the top of the hill, where they are unnoticed by the Indians. Alice faints from exhaustion. When Allen returns to the fort he finds them all nearly distracted because they cannot find Billy. Allen is equally surprised to learn that he and Alice have not reached the fort. A command is sent out and Billy, loyally taking care of Alice, is discovered, and a touching reunion takes place.
