The Sacred Tiger of Agra (1915)

Dr. Harris and his daughter, Jennie, incur the everlasting gratitude of Omah, a native of the jungle. Rajah Hamurii wishes to purchase the doctor's land, but they cannot agree on the price. In the meantime, the Sacred Tiger of Agra, which the Rajah worships, is released from its cage by a vindictive servant. Dr. Harris dies suddenly and Jennie is left with only Omah to protect her. The Rajah learns of the doctor's death, purchases the land from Jennie and plots to secure her for himself. Omah urges Jennie to flee to the jungle. The two are followed by the Rajah and his men. Omah and Jennie come upon the Sacred Tiger, which is put to sleep with a powerful native drug. The Rajah overtakes Jennie, and is about to take her to his palace, when she thinks of the tiger. She offers to restore it to the Rajah if he will provide a guide to escort her to the settlement. The honor of the Rajah forces him to agree to this; Jennie starts for safety, while the Rajah rejoices over the recovery of the Sacred Tiger.
