Red Wing and the Paleface (1912)
Elmore, a hunter, accidentally kills Red Fox, loved by the chief's daughter, Red Wing. The Indian girl enlists the aid of her father to avenge the death of Red Fox. A raid is made against the white settlement and Elmore is taken back to the Indian village, a prisoner. Elmore's wife, Ann, follows to the camp and begs Red Wing to intercede with the chief for her husband's life. Red Wing, turning to the white woman, says, "He has killed my lover. I will kill thine." Ann returns to the wreck of her home, where she meets Elmore's father and a number of settlers who have gathered. Horrified at Ann's story, the father and his companions become furious and decide to secure Elmore at once by force. They mount their horses and ride to the Indian camp, where a fierce fight takes place and Elmore, who has been tied to a stake by the Indians and is about to be tortured, is liberated. Red Wing, realizing that the Indians are no match for the hardy settlers and that she has been robbed of her revenge, escapes while the fight is in progress. She visits the spot where Elmore killed her lover, Red Fox, and takes her own life that she may join him in the happy hunting grounds.
