Little Dorothy begs for a story, so the old nurse seats herself on a chair and tells a story of the priest twenty years ago. As she talks the walls of the old log cabin where they live seem to fade before little Dorothy's eyes and she sees the priest, her uncle, place a crucifix in the hands of an Indian chief. The chief, respecting the gift, set the cross up as his talisman and made the entire tribe respect the principles for which it stood. Even while the nurse talked, however, the old chief was dying and his tribe under a new leader destroys the cross and takes to the warpath. Soon they attack the priest's house, and when everything seems going against the palefaces, suddenly the spirit of the dead chief appears and, holding the crucifix on high, saves all.
