- The story, which is well known to every school child, is taken from Parkman's History and is presented without alteration or embellishment, and in the number of people employed and in the character or the scenic mountings is by long odds the greatest Indian production yet offered under the Kalem trade-mark. It will be remembered that Major Gladwynn, Commandant of Fort Detroit in 1763, had declared his love for a young Indian girl and she had become much attached to him. At this period Pontiac was at the height of his power and had sent emissaries about the villages of the Ottawas inciting war against the whites. The final plan involved the entry to the fort of a number of picked chieftains, each carrying a shortened gun beneath his blanket. The mission was ostensibly to be one of peace, but at a signal from Pontiac the chieftains were to drop their blankets and to massacre the whites. However, Major Gladwynn was informed of the plot by the Indian girl and when Pontiac presented himself with his delegation on his treacherous mission, Major Gladwynn was well prepared and the fort was saved. Throughout this story is woven a love romance involving an Indian girl and Lady Jane Amherst, a young English girl visiting the fort at the time. The "Conspiracy of Pontiac" is so accurately and beautifully done that it will stand for a long time as an Indian classic and will unquestionably appeal very strongly to the school authorities as an educational subject worthy of close study.
- The action opens in the humble home of Betty Hampton, whose mother is very ill. Tom Driscoll, a typical "Green Mountain Boy," to whom Betty is engaged, brings her the coat of his new Continental uniform, to have the buttons changed, when they are interrupted by a hail outside. Hastily hiding the coat, lest it be seen by some enemy of the cause, they are much relieved to find that their caller is none other than Ethan Allen, the leader of the Green Mountain Boys. Allen has just received word of the battles of Concord and Lexington and decides to take steps to aid the revolt against Great Britain on his own responsibility. He imparts to them his plan to capture the British strongholds on Lake Champlain, the first one to be Fort Ticonderoga. He and Tom go to a well-known glen in the woods, having sent Neshobee, an Indian scout, to call in all the leaders for a council. This meeting results in their eagerly following Allen's lead and they depart to collect their followers. Allen, Tom and Neshobee are on their way to the village when they come across Betty, who is being annoyed by several of the soldiers of the fort. Quickly putting them to rout, they send Neshobee home with Betty and continue their way to the meeting place. Arriving home, Betty finds her mother in a very serious condition. She sends Neshobee for a neighbor, who, upon arriving, says a doctor is needed at once. The only doctor in the neighborhood is at the fort, so Betty goes to him, taking Neshobee as escort. She is ushered into the Commander's presence while the officers are banqueting and all more or less the worse for liquor. She states her errand, and while the doctor has gone for his kit, they attempt to make her drink the King's health, which she indignantly refuses to do. Arriving home she finds her mother has passed the crisis safely and at once resolves to tell Allen of the conditions at the fort and urge him to attack at once. Allen upon hearing her news, decides to attack at once without waiting for reinforcements and, gathering his men about him, eighty-three in all, they silently make their way across the lake. Creeping silently up the steep slope to the fort they overpower the sleepy sentinel and enter the fort unmolested. Beating upon Captain De La Place's door, Allen rouses him out of bed and when the sleepy commander opens the door, he finds himself confronted by Allen, sword in hand, demanding "Surrender, in the name of the Great Jehovah and the Continental Congress!" and his stronghold in possession of the Green Mountain Boys. He surrenders the fort and without firing a shot, the American heroes gain possession of the strongest fortification on Lake Champlain, together with all the stores of munition and cannon, a great number of which were afterward used to drive the British out of Boston. Allen leads Betty out before his men and publicly thanks her for her share of the night's work which is echoed by cheers from the men, while she blushingly hides her head on Tom's shoulder.
