Head of a strong ring in America, the infamous Baron was thwarted time and time again as he tried to sabotage the building of the transcontinental railroad with all the means to his scope, strategically bribing the local Indians into doing his dirty work. Mahoney was an ideal choice to play the lead character, and the role marked the beginning of a long and rewarding association with Columbia Pictures.

La venue des trois enfants du colonel Munro n’est donc pas des plus bienvenues au regard du danger qui règne sur la région d’autant plus que l’éclaireur Magua (Buster Crabbe) s’avère être un espion à la solde des français ; il espère faire tomber les anglais dans un piège, ayant de plus une revanche à prendre sur les Munro. Seuls Hawkeye (Michael O’Shea) et son fidèle compagnon mohicans Uncas ne lui font pas confiance. Ils vont néanmoins avoir pour mission de conduire les enfants à leur père qui commande actuellement Fort Henry.
