Captain of the Gray Horse Troop Synopsis

Captain George Curtis is sent from Washington, D.C. to improve conditions on an Indian reservation. After ousting a prejudiced government agent, George earns both the allegiance of the Indians and the hostility of neighboring cattlemen, who hope to appropriate the reservation through political corruption. George also falls in love with Elsie, the daughter of ex-Senator Brisbaine, a sworn enemy of the tribe. When the murder of a white rancher by an Indian incites an attack on the reservation, George marches his Gray Horse Troops into town to quell the violence. He then captures the perpetrator and assures the ranchers that the incident was isolated. Although they demand revenge on the entire tribe, George maintains the peace, and wins Elsie's love.

The Last Man Synopsis

After a tour of duty in the Philippines, Major Harvey, an army surgeon, returns to his home in Montana to discover his wife Lorna has begun an affair with Lieutenant Horne, whom she marries after Harvey divorces her. Weary of his former wife's high society sophistication, Harvey falls in love with Jeanne MacDonald, a young woman from the mountains, and, giving her a job as an army nurse, returns with her to the Philippines. Meanwhile, Horne has also been stationed there, and brings Lorna with him. The Philippine rebels attack the Americans, and the two couples find themselves under siege together. During the fighting, Lorna, tired of Horne, begins flirting with her ex-husband. After the rebels have been defeated, however, Harvey rejects Lorna and marries Jeanne.
