The Passing of Dappled Fawn

Dappled Fawn is the daughter of the chief of her tribe, and is deeply in love with a young brave, but her affection is frowned upon by her father, who finally gives her to a trapper in exchange for many gifts. Heartbroken, but unable to refuse her father's bidding, Dappled Fawn leaves with the trapper, and they ride away from the camp towards her new home. Big Bear, her true lover, however, is not to be thwarted thus easily. Taking a horse from camp he follows the unhappy girl. Ere long he catches up with the couple, and there ensues a spectacular fight on horseback between the trapper and the Indian. In the end the trapper overcomes his adversary and deals him a death blow. Poor little Dappled Fawn is now indeed alone in the world, and the prospect of her life with this man grows more and more distasteful, until finally she decides to get out of it and join her lover in the Happy Hunting Ground. Soon after she throws herself from a cliff into the swirling water of a mountain stream, and the trapper for days and days is haunted by the vision of the girl whose life he has thus ruined, until finally, in despair, he seeks the place where she met her death, and he too throws himself into the stream.
