Description

Walking Horse, war chief of the Omissi band of the Cheyennes, pays a mysterious visit to the Suhtai band, among whose foremost chiefs is Big Hard Face. Big Hard Face proudly shows Walking Horse the large herd of fine horses presented to him by his son, Thunder Moon, who captured them in daring raids upon the Comanches. Feigning a desire to buy some of the horses, Walking Horse makes a deal that obliges Thunder Moon to accept an unknown gift. Big Hard Face is ecstatic over the good price, while Thunder Moon awaits the gift with foreboding.
