During the powwow, Kitty Regan escaped and encountered a party of pioneers. The pioneers were headed by Harry Livingston and his sweetheart, Mary Lane. Breathlessly Kitty described the attack and begged for help. The men lost no time in going to the rescue and Harry, finding his horse fatigued from the taxing journey, took Mary's pinto pony and followed the relief party, guided by Kitty. The crafty savages had carefully watched the advancing party and a fierce battle was soon waging. Several of the Indians encircled the white men and captured a number of horses, among them, the pony. Harry soon found himself engaged in a hand-to-hand encounter with an Indian, who finally thrust the young man over a cliff, and, with a yell of satisfaction, ran to join his companions. By careful maneuvers and fine marksmanship, the pioneers completely annihilated the band of red men and returned to the wagons, only to find that Harry was missing. Meanwhile the young man had regained consciousness and found his leg broken. He clung to the rocks and called for help. High above the abandoned pony was calmly grazing, awaiting its rider. The loosened lariat, fastened to the saddle, hung over the cliff and in a moment caught the eyes of Harry. The horse came to the summit of the cliff and permitted the rope to dangle within reach of Harry, who drew himself to the solid ground. Harry's reunion with his sweetheart and the reception given the pony make a striking finale. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
