Maltreated by an Indian brave, Erskine flees to a settlers’ stockade im Kentucky and is recognized by his mortally wounded father, The boy goes to Red Oakes, the great Dale plantation on the James river, Row occupied by COLONEL DALR, younger brother of Erskine's father. The boy ts kindly received by his cousins, BARBARA and WARRY. Erskine flees to the wilderness and leaves Red Oakes, legally his, to Barbara, after threatening to kill Dane Grey, with whom he has juarreled in jealousy over the girl. He is met by Shawnee Indians, who persaued him to visit his fost r, the old chief Kahtoo, In the Indian camp he finds a white woman condemned to death, Her beautiful half-breed daughter, EARLY MORN, is loved by Erskine's enemy, Black Wolf.
