The Indians take to the war path, and a scout, learning of the fact, warns all the settlers in the region, who immediately go to the stockade. A note is sent to the Indians, demanding that they return to their reservation, but the chief's reply to this communication is an arrow, which means, in the language of the primitive men, defiance. A fight ensues at the stockade, but ultimately the settlers win, and a little orphan Indian boy, who appears throughout the film, is adopted by the settlers.
