Synopsis: [?] [From The Moving Picture World]? When her lover’s life is sacrificed to pay the penalty for a crime committed by the chief’s son, Red Wing, an Indian maiden, leaves the camp and goes to live with the family of General Scott, who is in charge of a frontier army post. The Indians do not bother her while General Scott is alive, but when he dies and the funeral procession is journeying to the cemetery the Redmen demand the return of Red Wing. She refuses to go, whereupon the savages attempt to take her from the soldiers. In as pretty a fight as one would wish to see, they are defeated and the heroine of the battle is little Red Wing, General Scott’s protégé.
