In giving his reason for the slaying, he tells Col. Hansen this story: "He wronged me and mine years ago, and I swore to slay him. I was a young brave of the Shawnee tribe. He, Mannon, an outcast, driven from his people. The chief of my tribe and I came upon him hiding in the underbrush. Although there was peace between his people and mine, he wantonly slew my chief and fled. I pursued him. We fought with our knives until I was left for dead. Settlers found me and brought me back to health. I vowed to kill my treacherous foe. But when I returned to my people, I found that he had become one of them and had turned their heads with strong drink. Even as I came, he was urging them to massacre his people, my friends. When I protested, they mocked me for a woman and bound me lest I give the white people warning. Later, they made the attack and massacred the settlers, slew them all but two, whom they brought back for torture. That night. Morning Dew, my squaw, cut my bonds and I aided my friends to escape. But Mannon saw us flee. Seizing his rifle, he shot at us, and killed Morning Dew. Fearing the wrath of my people, the coward fled. Over the body of my beloved, I swore to search for her slayer until I had wiped out my wrongs. Many moons passed until my head whitened like the snow and I feared that the Great Manitou had willed that my foe escape. But today my search came to an end. In this fort I found Mannon. At the sight of me, fear entered his heart, while I felt once more in my withered muscles the strength of my youth. Again we fought with our knives and I slew him in fair combat. Do with me as the white man's law requires. I am content." Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
