Burns is hunting in the woods, and fires as Little Dove comes riding up. The report startles her horse, and it wheels suddenly, throwing the girl to the ground. Burns carries her to his camp, nearby, and he and his friend bandage her sprained ankle. Her tribe misses her and trails her to the camp, where an attack is prevented by Little Dove, who explains that the white men are her friends. She falls in love with Burns, who does not encourage her. The white men depart and Little Dove's sadness is pathetic, hut she finally accepts the love of an Indian brave.
