Golden Arrow (Farrell)

Origin
Chief Swift Arrow is from an tribe (not identified in the text). Swift Arrow's tribe signed a treaty with Colonel Moresby of the United States Army. Morseby is in charge of the fort in the area.

Chief Red Eagle, Chief of a roving band of Apaches, intends to attack the fort. He says they must first remove Swift Arrow for befriending the white man. This, he thinks, will make their task easier.

An Apache named Crooked Antler volunteers to take on Swift Arrow to revenge himself for a shame Swift Arrow gave him by besting Crooked Antler in a fight.

The Apaches attack the fort, soon beleaguering the soldiers with superior numbers. Swift Arrow and his tribe join the battle, and soon the Apaches are routed.

Swift Arrow stops Red Eagle from killing Moresby. One of Red Eagle's band throws an axe at Swift Arrow, but the axe misses and kills Red Eagle instead.
