Plot[]
As the Canadian Pacific Railway makes its way through the western frontier of Canada in the early 1880s, railroad workers and settlers come under frequent attack by Indians who resent the white man's encroachment on their land. One such attack on a wagon train leaves only one survivor of the Indian massacre, a young girl named Susannah Sheldon (Shirley Temple) who is found by a mounted patrol in the command of Inspector Angus "Monty" Montague. The young girl is taken back to the post where she is adopted by Monty (Randolph Scott) and his friend, Pat O'Hannegan (J. Farrell MacDonald). The two men do their best to help the girl overcome her ordeal.
Some time later, Vicky Standing (Margaret Lockwood), the daughter of the Superintendent (Moroni Olsen) arrives from Toronto to visit her father. Monty is immediately enchanted by the beautiful woman. The blossoming romance sparks a rivalry in Susannah and Harlan Chambers (Lester Matthews), the head of the railroad camp. The Indian attacks resume when a band of renegades steals horses from the railroad camp. One of the friendly Indians, Chief Big Eagle (Maurice Moscovitch), promises to track down the renegades and deliver them to the camp. As a show of good faith, the Chief leaves his son Little Chief (Martin Good Rider) at the post.
Little Chief is soon teaching Susannah the way of the Indians. While the two are out riding one day, they come upon one of the renegades, Wolf Pelt (Victor Jory), attempting to sell his stolen horses to Chambers. The two argue and Chambers threatens the Indians with extinction. Wolf Pelt returns to his tribe and uses Chambers' threats to demand that the tribe go to war against the Europeans. That night, Wolf Pelt raids the post to retrieve Little Chief and kidnaps Monty. Soon after, Big Eagle sends a message demanding that the railroad abandon the area or they will kill Monty.
Susannah decides to search for Monty, and as she approaches the Indian camp she is taken prisoner by the Indians. As the tribe prepares to burn Monty at the stake, Susannah escapes from her teepee and makes an appeal to Big Chief, accusing Wolf Pelt of inciting Chambers by stealing his horses. Wolf Pelt denies the charges. To determine who is telling the truth, Big Chief uses the stick of truth that will point to the liar. When the stick drops towards Wolf Pelt, Big Chief frees Monty and offers him and Susannah his pipe of peace.
