This two-reel offering is a strong &quot;come hack&quot; in the way of Indian fighting. The battle with the savages in the second reel is picturesque in the extreme and will make even veteran picturegoers sit up. The story also is a strong one. The colonel&apos;s wife becomes jealous of her own sister, through an odd but plausible situation. The girl, discovering this, marries her sweetheart and leaves the fort. She is captured by Indians and the hero saves her in a desperate encounter, during which he kills numerous redskins. A strong offering of the kind. - The Moving Picture World, August 30, 1913

Nell, the sister of Colonel Wilson's wife, is in love with Private Walsh, one of the post telegraphers. The colonel is fond of Nell, and his wife, being of a jealous disposition, is uneasy. The colonel discovers Nell's love affair, and takes from Walsh's desk Nell's photograph autographed, "Lovingly, Nell." Mrs. Wilson sews a button on her husband's coat and finds the photograph. She overhears snatches of conversation in which the colonel is trying to persuade Nell to give up Walsh and misconstrues them, and in a fit of temper accuses the colonel of being in love with her sister. The colonel is too hurt to give her an answer, and Nell is indignant. Nell and Walsh elope, Nell writing a note to her sister, Mrs. Wilson finds out for the first time the true circumstances, and begs her husband's forgiveness. The colonel goes in pursuit of the elopers with a squad of soldiers, and is surrounded by hostile Indians. A desperate fight takes place, and Walsh sees that the soldiers are being hard pressed. He climbs a telegraph post, taps the wire, and sends in a call for help. His figure on the top of the post makes an excellent target for the Indians, and he falls, badly wounded. Nell picks up his gun and holds off the Indians, who attack her, until the arrival of the troops. The Indians are badly defeated, though many of the soldiers are shot, and the horses tumbled to the ground. Walsh is tenderly carried to the fort and nursed back to health. For his bravery he receives a lieutenant's commission, which removes the social barrier between him and his wife.
