An 18th-century frontiersman named Kent McIntyre (Barker) is sent by the British to negotiate a peace treaty with Chief Pontiac (Chaney Jr.) but, as expected, the Indian tribe are wary of white-man promises. After the initial unsuccessful mission, McIntyre's commanding officer is replaced by the ruthless Von Webber (Kroeger) who launches a severe anti-Indian policy. A battle commences, during which, in an effort to decimate the Indians, Von Webber gives the tribe smallpox-infested blankets. Eventually, the evil Hessian gets what's coming to him, and peace is restored. (official distributor synopsis)
