When a group of grave-robbers tangle with a band of Kiowa, a passing column of U.S. Cavalry kill all but one of the Kiowa, whom they assume are the agressors in the fight. The surviving Kiowa, who is called Ke-Woh-No-Tay, is actually the son of Matt Savage, who was kidnapped as an infant. He is reunited with his dying father, but rejects his white heritage and is jailed. He escapes prison and tracks down the grave-robbers, killing all but one, who clears him of wrong-doing in the original conflict.
