At the White Man's Door (1911)

An Indian tries to cheat the white man in a barter for some furs. The Indian is detected and defeated in his game: the red man arouses his tribe against the white man: they waylay him and wound him with a poisoned arrow, take him to their camp, where he is saved from death and released by an Indian Princess, who has fallen in love with him. When she withdraws the arrow from his wound she places it in the bosom of her dress. Following the white man to his home, she discovers he has a wife and child. In jealous rage she takes the arrow from her breast and plunges it into the arm of the wife, who falls prostrate and unconscious. The white man compels her to administer to his wife as she did to him. The wife lives, the Indian Princess goes to the base of the rapids, where she pierces her own arm and cries to the Great Spirit to receive her soul, dying, a victim of her own vengeance.
