He asks that his little son be taken and educated as a white man. This is done. John Graham becomes a football star at Carlisle, and later wins a medical degree. He marries Mary Penton, and obtains the position of post surgeon on the Indian reservation. At John's request, the colonel tells the Dog that he is not to disclose his identity as the boy's father to John's white wife. The Indian promises. However, he assures himself that Mary is worthy of his son. And for a moment he holds his grandson against his breast. Later, the child wanders away, and the colonel sends for the Dog to trail him. He finds little John just about to spring a bear trap with his hand. At last, the son acknowledges his father. The picture closes as the old Indian is folding one end of his blanket about Mary and the child, and the other end about his son. Written by
