The Indian Raiders (1912)
The Thomas family are the owners of a large horse ranch, on the borders of New Mexico. A neighboring band of Apaches, under the famous Geronimo, had for several years been at peace, consequently the Thomas ranch was in a flourishing condition. Tom, the foreman, and Jerry, one of his trusted lieutenants, are rivals for the hand of Jess, the ranch owner's daughter. The dainty little miss shows a preference for Tom. Jerry being of a naturally sullen and morose disposition, takes this preference with ill grace. Tom and Jess go for a ride, followed by Jerry. The evening meal is the scene of the announcement of Tom's happiness. But the next morning, Jerry, unable to restrain his disappointment, in an insulting manner, whereupon Tom, coming up unexpectedly knocks him down. Further squabbles are put an end to by the sudden discovery that Geronimo and his raiding band have visited the Thomas corral by night and left it clean of horses. Tom and Jerry lay aside their grievances and go out side by side to fight the common enemy. Exciting scenes follow, where the horses are recovered. Geronimo and his band are routed and the cowboys return victorious. How Tom and Jerry settle their grievances, and how Jerry determines to play a man's part and go away, leaving Tom to his deserved reward, are vividly told in the final scenes of this photoplay.
