In August, 1757, the French
and Indian War was at its height.

General Montcalm, the French commander,
with a large force of troops and Indian allies

was moving down from Canada to attack
British-held territory near Lake George.

As a matter of defense, it was
important that the British learn at once

whether Montcalm would
strike Fort William Henry

or bypass it and
attack Fort Edward.

Scout for General Webb!

Your scout, Magua, to see you, sir.

Good.

Perhaps he has word of Montcalm!

You found Montcalm for me, Magua?

Excellent! I knew
I could count on you.

Where is he?

Far off. There.

Two day march.

But that's to the south, sir.
Montcalm will come from the north.

Are you sure, Magua?

Magua see.

Magua speak truly.

This news will cause
us to revise our strategy!

Well, not only that...

Major Heywood is bringing General
Munro's family from that direction!

Send some mounted men out at once.
Even now they may be under Indian attack!

Yes, sir.

This is beautiful country, Duncan.

It certainly is, Miss Cora,
and dangerous, also.

Beautiful yet dangerous...

like a lovely woman.

Are you speaking
for yourself, Miss Alice?

Hey, I bet I saw an Indian!

David, would you please stop
using those Yankee expressions?

Aw, gosh, sis!

That's what Alice means, David.

Well all right, but if we're attacked,
don't say I didn't warn you!

Major Heywood, sir, your escort.

Why, Sergeant?

We received a report that Montcalm
is south of here. General Webb sent us.

Will that prevent us from joining
Father at Fort William Henry?

General Webb'll have
to make that decision.

Proceed!

David, stop that!

Ah!

Miss Alice...

Thank you, Duncan.

Careful now, the ground is rough.

Thank you.

This is so exciting!
Are all these men American?

Er, yes, they are --
militiamen, good fighters.

Aren't they interesting?

And such amusing costumes, too.

You must remember to get one like them,
Duncan, for our first fancy dress ball.

(Snickering)
- (Ahem) Come, ladies.

You're all so amusing, my dears...

but you're so blasted dirty!

Well, well... so you're here at last!

No trouble I hope?

It's been perfect.

Hardly more arduous
than traveling in England.

Oh, I was terrified
all the time, but...

Duncan is such a
marvelous protector.

The country between here and Boston
has become quite civilized, General.

Oh, yes. Yes, indeed!

Well, won't you come in?

Where'd you get those?

They come off an Iroquois who
didn't know my rifle was loaded.

Can I have them?

And who are you?

David Munro.

Oh-ho, you are, are you?

I don't think you ever got close
enough to an Iroquois to shoot 'im.

Your feet are too big!

An Indian would hear you
in the forest a mile away!

Now you listen
to me, young feller...

And I don't think you
ever shot that Iroquois.

He probably took one look at
you and laughed himself to death!

Can I have them?

You can have
a box on the ears!

You--

I'm afraid we're not going
to give you much rest.

My officers insisted on planning
a party for you this evening.

I, er, tried to stop them.

Oh, General, you didn't!

Well, maybe I
didn't try too hard.

Oh, and this is
Master David, eh?

How do you do, sir?
- How do you do?

I've had my library fitted up for
them, Major. Will you show them in?

Certainly, sir.

And there'll be an officer's
meeting immediately after dinner.

Oh, you won't let it interfere
with the dance, will you?

Well, not more than
I can help, Miss Alice

but, after all, we must spare some
time for this troublesome war.

David fancied he saw
Indians all along the way!

I did, General.
I saw lots of Indians

...but nobody believed me.

I imagine you did, David.
They're everywhere.

Let me know what you need --
er, we'll find a maid for you.

Thank you, General.
- Thank you.

This way, ladies.

Well, well... if it ain't the Mohican,
Uncas, and my old friend Hawk-Eye!

How are you, Bob?

What's all the
excitement hereabouts?

Well, that rather than all depends
on what you call "excitement."

About the biggest thing
that's happened around here

General Munro's two pretty
daughters just come in today!

Uh huh.

Then there was that report that
Montcalm and his army are south of here.

South of here?

And whose claim is that?

Word was brought by Magua,
General Webb's scout.

Ah...

Magua, huh?

Mm.

Excuse me.

Hey, hey, hey, Hawk-Eye...

if you're goin' to the dance
tonight, you'd better change!

So that renegade
Magua's here again, huh?

Magua is Iroquois.

Always will be, too.

We were all through that country south
of here, Uncas. We saw no signs of the French.

They are not there.

Aye.

I'd better tell Webb
that Magua lied to 'im.

The general's in a meeting with his
officers and cannot be disturbed.

(Gasp)

What do you want?

Er, the... I'm looking for
General Webb there, but I...

I don't believe you.

You're one of those rude
Colonials with no manners!

(Huff) Will you get out
or shall I call the guard?

I'm going. I'm leaving, ladies.

Beg your pardon, General Webb...

I'd like to set you straight on the
false report you got about Montcalm.

Who are you?

They call me Hawk-Eye.
I'm a scout, like Magua...

only I report what I see and
not what I want people to believe.

Well, Magua is working
for me and you're not.

I've always found him reliable.

Well, in this case, he ain't.

I was all through that country
south of here only last week

and found no sign
of Montcalm at all.

Then why should
Magua say he's there?

Isn't he the Indian Munro
had flogged last June?

Well, yes... but that was for
drunkenness. He's since reformed.

General Webb... floggin'
never reformed an Indian.

I do not intend to
discuss it with you!

Your intentions are probably honest
but your manners are to be deplored!

Now, get out.

Get out!

Miss Alice...

I have the next dance
with Miss Alice, Major.

And I have the next.

Yes, and she's promised
me the Lasses'.

This is all too cruel, promising
every dance to someone else.

I thought you weren't coming!

General Webb kept us a little longer
in the meeting than I expected.

Well, as it wasn't your fault...

haven't I heard that possession
is nine points of the law?

Excuse us, gentlemen.

...and then I said
to the general

Why, you haven't
heard a thing I said.

Oh, I'm sorry.

My dance, Major.

Excuse me, please...

Oh, er, dance, Miss Cora?

Oh, I'd love to, Duncan!

Was your meeting interesting?

Very.

We should hear the results
of it any moment now.

I hope it won't interfere
with our journey.

I hardly think so.

Gentlemen of the
regiments... your attention.

We have decided that we will not wait
for the French and Indians to attack us.

Montcalm is two days'
march away to the south.

We shall not await his convenience,
but we'll strike the first blow.

A portion of the regiment
will march at dawn.

What does it mean, Duncan?

It means this will be your last
dance for some time, ladies.

The general has decided to send
you on to join your father tomorrow

and with Montcalm to the south, the road
to William Henry should be quite safe.

Oh, but you're going
to take us, aren't you?

Of course.

It's a fine sight, sir.

Makes me feel sorry I'm
not going along with them.

It's more important that you should
escort General Munro's children to him.

You should be there by nightfall.

It'll be a safe trip now that
we've located Montcalm.

Well, I could spare
you half a dozen men...

It isn't necessary, sir.

We'll travel much faster alone.

Magua will select a safe route.
He knows the forest.

Wasn't it thrilling?

Ah...

We were watching
from the window.

It made me glad I'm
not in Montcalm's boots.

I hope he'll regret being in
those boots himself before long.

But how charming you look!

I see you really
mean to leave us.

It's been perfectly wonderful, General,
the nicest part of our journey.

If it weren't for Father,
we'd never want to leave.

David!

Give up?

You win!

Good work.

What did he do with his shirt?

And his jacket?

Anyway, he's proved that Colonials aren't
the only ones that know how to ride a horse.

Look, I bet my red coat against these
feathers I could beat him and I did!

For goodness sake, put your clothes on!

I've decided I'm
gonna ride like this.

You're not going to let Father
see you looking like a savage!

Oh, gosh, Cora...

And stop using that
terrible expression!

Well, we're riding
through Indian country.

What's wrong with being
dressed like an Indian?

You're not gonna
do any such thing.

Come on, now, put these on.

Aw, all right.

Well, here are your horses.

I declare Fort Edward will
be a dreary desert without you.

Why don't you come with us?

Well, as a matter of fact, I did offer Major
Heywood a half dozen men, but he refused.

He said he could
make better time alone.

(Laughs) Oh, General.

May as well warn
your officers, sir...

it won't do them any good to
try a surprise attack on the road.

I know their tactics too well!

Good!

I've always heard that Heywood was
an excellent campaigner, Miss Alice.

I found him a delightful one!

Ah.

You needn't hold too tight
a rein. He's a gentle horse.

I'm sure if you chose him,
he's perfect, Duncan.

Come on, now, get in your saddle.

Well, goodbye, my boy, and be sure
to give your father my warmest regards!

I will, sir.

Good luck!

It's really going
to be fun, Cora.

We'll be the only
English girls at the fort.

The only young ones, anyway.

One might travel for days in this
forest without coming to the end.

Who knows what's
beyond it, to the west?

Or to the north or south?

All this wilderness waiting
for men to come and tame.

What a dreary thought!

Uncas...

what kind of an arrow
would you say that is?

Iroquois.

Mm hm.

Then this was
a friendly Indian?

Mm.

Many Iroquois watch
road to William Henry.

We go this way.

Are you sure?

But the Iroquois
are with Montcalm.

White man eye cannot
read sign of forest.

We've run into a bit of luck.

Magua tells me he knows
a shorter way to the fort.

Oh, good!

I didn't want to alarm your sisters,
David, but it looks like trouble...

so be on a sharp lookout.

If you see or hear anything you
don't understand, give me a call.

Right, Major!

We can start again, ladies.

David, are you all right?

I guess so.

Who fired the shot?

I did...

and a fine shot it was,
too, if I say so meself.

Well, where did you come from?

Back there.

Who are you?

I'll consider your profound ignorance
and forgive you for not thankin' me.

If the way your travel is any
indication of how you value your life

then one more or less of you
won't make much difference.

I'm very grateful for what
you've done, naturally, but, uh...

who are you?

My name is Nathaniel Bumppo, but that's
a bit too Irish for me Indian friends.

They call me Hawk-Eye.

So may you, if you like.

David! Are you all right?

David, what happened?

Oh, I'm all right!

The danger's over now...

for which we're indebted
to Mr. "Hawk-Eye."

I don't care
to be in his debt.

He's the man I told you
about who was so rude at the fort.

The same one who tried to
warn you, but you wouldn't listen.

David, will you take your
sisters back to Magua, please?

I'll join you in a moment.

I'll get my horse.

I insist on knowing
what you're doing here.

Oh, do ya, now? Well, I
like to know who I'm talkin' to

before I start answerin'
questions in a place like this.

I'm Major Heywood, commanding
the Sixtieth Provincials.

Now if you'll excuse us, we still
have much of our journey to make.

What makes you think
you're gonna make it, Major?

Oh, no, no, I'm not
gonna stop you. No...

but these woods are very confusin' to
anyone passin' through 'em for the first time.

We have a guide, thank you.

You have, have you?

Who are you?

You're askin' a powerful
lot of questions, Major

and the woods are filled with dead
men who didn't get the right answers.

I'm a little tired of
your wit, Mr. "Hawk-Eye."

Oh, now, don't get
your hackles up, Major.

His name is Uncas.

He's a Mohican, the last of a fine tribe
driven to the four winds by you British.

Where's Magua?

He probably didn't like
the sound of my rifle.

He's a faithful guide.

He was a thievin', renegade
Iroquois -- and a liar to boot.

Why do you think we've been
followin' you all this time, man?

I don't believe you.

Ah, you believed him quickly
enough when he was lyin' to you.

He has no idea where Montcalm
is any more than I have.

I don't care to discuss
the matter with you!

I'm sorry, Major. Maybe I was
a bit sudden, but, you see

out here, a man doesn't have a
chance to think up pretty speeches.

Let's shake.

That's better...

and now, sir, if I'm not mistaken,
these two charmin' young ladies

are the daughters
of General Munro.

How do you know that?

'Tis only that I've heard
that they're the most

beautiful young ladies
that ever visited the colonies

and it would be poor
hospitality to let our

fair visitors fall into the
hands of the Iroquois.

The Iroquois are
with the French!

Not all of 'em, Major.

There's a dead runner back there
with an Iroquois arrow in his back.

Shall we go back to the fort?

No, no, there's no need for that.

Right.

Look here, Hawk-Eye...
you say you want to be friends.

I'm going to
take you up on it.

We can use your rifles and
your knowledge of the woods.

They're yours to command, Major.

Not a bad speech for a
backwoods Irishman, eh?

Now, then...

the thing to do is to dispose of what
forces we have to the best advantage.

You and the Indian...
- Er, just a minute, Major.

He's more than just an Indian.

He's a Mohican and a chief at that,
and his name is Uncas, like I told you before.

I beg your pardon.

You and Uncas will lead the way.

David will ride with the ladies,
and I'll guard the rear.

Major, why don't
you let me take over, sir?

Don't do it, Duncan.

I'm afraid I'd be putting
my pride above your safety.

Very well.
Will you take command?

I think I'm gonna
like you, Major.

Very well, sir, me first
order is to get rid of those

burdensome clothes and
the... those funny-lookin' hats.

I'll take care of the horses.
- Duncan!

The Iroquois can hear
a horse a half a mile away.

We're not very far from the river
and Uncas and I just happened

to borrow a couple of canoes
from our Iroquois friends.

Hawk-Eye!

What?

Iroquois.

Iroquois. Follow me, quick.

We'll meet at the island...
where the river widens.

Well, we must have lost them.

You don't suppose
they were caught?

Hawk-Eye too wise.

You follow me.

Hide in cave.

Well, it seems safe enough.

You two wait here.

I'm going to take
a look around outside

We'll be all right, Duncan.

So...

you decided to
come back, Magua.

Why did you run away?

Has Magua lost his tongue?

Perhaps it is courage
that has left him.

White man will know of
Magua courage soon enough!

What are you doing here?

Are there any Iroquoi
in that direction?

Are many Iroquoi brother.

Do they know we're here?

You're lying!

I saw you when you
came out of the water...

You didn't know whether
anybody was on the island or not!

The Iroquois brother will
know when Magua tell them.

Let us say...

if Magua tell them!

White man courage
to kill fallen enemy?

No.

Get up!

[Iroqoi language]

Magua not kill white brother.

More value alive.

Come and get me!

[Iroqois]

Hey, Major!

Major!

Over here!

Where's Alice?

She's safe.

Kind of a funny time to be
takin' a bath, ain't it, Major?

I found Magua on the island.

Uh huh. That proves one thing, then:
There's Iroquois ahead of us as well as behind.

Maybe you can get the girls
and David away in a canoe.

Ah, it's too late for that.

There's no need to
frighten the ladies, though.

Look, I'll go to the cave alone.
You keep a sharp watch.

Relieve Uncas, he's over here.

I'll tell him all that shootin' was
me takin' potshots at shadows.

We heard some shooting!

Did you, now? Well, that was me
takin' potshots at some shadows.

Is Duncan all right?

Of course, he's all right!
He's standin' watch.

Are you hungry?

Yes, I am, really!

Follow me.

"Follow me," I said!

Ah, I see you haven't found
the sleeping quarters yet.

That I don't blame you.

It took all the genius of Uncas and
I to figure out this little thing here.

Here we go...

(Grunt)

(Sigh)

It ain't exactly Buckin'ham Palace,
but it's better than an Iroquois hut.

Come in.

Uncas and I don't often have company,
but you're welcome to what we have.

Oh...

What is it?

Dried venison.

I'm not hungry, thank you.

Thank you.

We're both tired. I think perhaps if
we could rest a little bit before we eat...

That's all right, ma'am,
help yourself. There's the bed.

I'm sure we'll
be very comfortable.

I'm hungry, too, Mr. Hawk-Eye.

Are you now, me boy?
Well, you're lucky.

You know, a man can have a good
appetite and nothin' else and he can be rich.

This here is probably the finest delicacy
in all the North American woods.

Well, what does it taste like?

Well, son...

it tastes a bit like the sole of
an old boot softened by the rain

only maybe a
bit more tender.

Davy, me boy... I'd like
a word with you outside.

Now, listen, me boy...

I didn't want to frighten the ladies,
but the Iroquois have picked up our trail.

Aw, gosh!

You see, they want to
take your sisters prisoners

because they'd make
very valuable hostages.

Well, what can we do, Hawk-Eye?

Now, there's nothing much
we can do now but watch.

Now, here's what
I want you to do:

You go down and guard
the lower end of the island.

Hey, wait. Come here.

You'd better go inside
and put on your own jumper

and I have an idea the
Iroquois won't appreciate

them feathers, so you
better take 'em off.

All right.
- Go along with you.

Do you think they'll attack?

When all together.

Sun come up.

Aye.

Well, in that case,
I might as well enjoy the stars.

Ah...

You know... they don't look a bit
different on a man's last night on earth.

They're two lovely girls, Uncas.

The Major's a lucky man.

Tell me, son...

how would you go about
handlin' the fair one?

Do you think she'd
make a good squaw?

Maybe.

After much hard work.

And the weight of her
husband's hand now and then.

It is good way.

'Twould be a pity
if she died before she

met the man she couldn't
twist around her little finger.

Mmh.

I can't go on waiting in
this trap to be slaughtered!

I'll give myself up,
that's what I'll do!

I'll give myself up...

Alice, please,
don't talk like that!

Now, stop it.

Major! Hawk-Eye!

It's difficult for
all of us, Alice.

Is there a chance getting the girls
and David off the island somehow?

Maybe under cover of darkness.

We'll try it tonight.

Stay here.

A fight you want, is it,
ya dirty heathens...

Your knife, Hawk-Eye.

Eh? Oh...

Here you are.

Here, dip this in the water.

We'll beat them yet, Major.

I'm sorry, Hawk-Eye. I...

guess I won't be
much up to you, now.

Ah...

Hawk-Eye...

Hm?

I'll get your gun.

Uh huh.

There's only one thing to do.

You wait here.

Go back into the inner
cave and hide, all of you

and no matter what happens,
don't put up a fight.

We've got one chance --
the Iroquoi want to take you alive.

You mean we're
to let them catch us?

Yes, if they find you, and if they
don't, they'll think you got away.

The thing for us to do is to
stay alive as long as possible.

We can't sacrifice
David and the girls!

Look, Major, I like a
fight as well as any man

but this is one time we've got to be smarter
than the Indians who're closing in on ya.

All right, Hawk-Eye.
Come along, Cora.

Davy Boy, can you
keep your mouth shut?

You mean give up,
just like cowards?

My son, they'll kill you if you
don't, so let them take you.

But here's what I
want you to do...

I want you to leave
a trail wherever you go.

Leave a trail? How?

Now, mind you, the Iroquois are
very smart, so you've got to be careful

but every so often,
drop something

something small, mind you
-- and don't let them see you.

Do you think you can do it?

I can do it.

I know you can. Now, go along
with you, boy, to the cave. Hurry!

They've gone.

Where are Hawk-Eye and Mohican?

They ran away.

That is lie! Where they go?

Where they go?

Will you speak...
- Take your hands off her!

They... they were afraid!

They were afraid of you...

Afraid for Magua?

That good!

(Iroquois)

Put on.

White brother keep foot on dry ground!

(Iroquois)

Will be no track
for Hawk-Eye to follow.

But Hawk-Eye ran away.

You think Magua is child?

(Iroquois)

Magua!

White warrior call?

I want to talk to you.

Can the others understand me?

Where are you taking us?

To Magua village.

And what reward
will Magua receive?

Much honour.

Hm!

Magua uses the
words of a child.

Honor is a plaything
for children and fools!

Magua can have much riches
and all the firewater he can drink.

Who give those thing?

The white warrior, Munro.

Let us go, Magua.
Anything you ask is yours.

The white warrior does
not break his promise.

Magua let you go.

Three of you.

Magua not want be rich.

Montcalm has give much those things.

Is something more Magua want.

If my life can be the ransom...

Oh, no, Duncan!

Wait.

What is it you want?

To punish those who
have punished Magua.

What do you mean?

Once, long ago...

white warrior Munro
was Magua friend...

give Magua much firewater.

Magua drink.

Was flogged.

Magua say...

"Munro children pay for that!"

Magua say...

"they die!"

Each stroke of lash...

will be year of
suffer for Munro.

Now...

Magua not want your life.

If this one...

come with Magua, be squaw...

other go free.

We'd rather die, first!

Brave talk, white warrior...

but no use.

Never mind, Cora.
Hawk-Eye will save us!

Look.

(Iroquoi)

No, Davy, no!

Take your hands off
my sister! Let her go!

David!

I said take your
hand off my sister!

David, you mustn't!
It won't do any good!

No.

Little Bear demand
blood of white boy.

Stain on honor, attack by child.

I'm not afraid of 'im!

Magua has saved your life.

Have better use for you both.

Hawk-Eye!

That's right, me son.
Turn around with you...

Eh, looks like I've been
spendin' all me time lately

poppin' off Indians just as they're about
to sink their tomahawk into your skull.

Gosh, Hawk-Eye,
I knew you'd find us!

How are you, Major?

Oh, better, thank you.

That's good.

Ah, that...

Well, it would hurt his honor as a
warrior if he didn't scalp his victims.

Too bad you didn't get
here a few hours sooner.

If it hadn'ta been for Uncas,
we wouldn't be here at all.

That Magua made that
trail pretty difficult to follow.

Hawk-Eye...

they've taken my sisters away.

I know, me boy.

Indians always separate their captives.

Is there any hope for them?

As long as we're
all alive, there's hope.

You were right, Hawk-Eye.

Thanks, Major.

Cheer up, me boy.
I'll find them for you.

Magua is gone.

I thought as much.
He's a sly one, that Magua.

Well, as soon as you two are
in shape, we'll get going after 'im.

I'm ready now!

So am I!

Well, I ain't.

I ain't had a bite in
me mouth all day. Here...

Chew on that for awhile.

Oh, thanks!
- Help yourself, Uncas.

Uh heh!

They started the ceremony.

Now a little powder in here...

There we are, and then
the fuse in the end...

and plug it up
with a bit of mud...

and there we are.

The Major's rounded
up the horses, Hawk-Eye.

He's all ready.

Nice work!

Now, Uncas, have
you got the signal?

Three hoots of an owl, and then the
bugle call, and then I'll set off the reeds.

Right?

Good luck to you, boy.

Come on, Davy, come on.
Let's get out o' here.

Uncas has courage.

I hope he can keep
them listening

He's a Mohican chief.

They'll listen to him, all right.

I am Uncas...

chief of Mohicans.

Have no fear.

I have no more reason
to love white man than you...

Even less.

They destroyed my tribe.

That true...

but Uncas have fight
on side of white man.

Uncas have killed many
Magua Iroquois brother.

I fought only because
I was attacked.

Why Uncas come here?

To claim my prisoners.

Magua and his brothers
took them away from me.

They belong to me.

I have come for them.

This is trick!

Magua speaks with tongue of child.

I am Uncas...

last of my people.

I am alone.

Where Uncas friend, Hawk-Eye?

He lie in forest...

tomahawk of Uncas in skull.

Major...

you and Davy take
the ladies in that direction.

Now remember, keep the sun
so that a half turn of your head

will bring it directly
over your left shoulder.

Follow that direction for two miles
and you'll come to a ruined cabin.

Wait there for awhile, and Uncas
and I'll join you as soon as we can.

Go along. Come on, Uncas.

(Sigh) It seems hard to believe
that this terrible journey's almost over.

I keep thinking of Father.

No word from us.
He must be sick with worry.

Hm!

Poor Davy.
He's all worn out.

Well, you ladies had
better get some sleep.

I'll keep a lookout until
Hawk-Eye gets here.

But you need sleep, too.

I'll get some when I see you
both safe in your father's arms.

Uh...

I'll never be able to sleep.
I'm much too restless.

Well, why don't
you go for a little walk?

Oh, I... I wouldn't dare.

Oh, I should think it would be quite safe.
You could stay close to the building, and...

Duncan's on guard.

Well, if... you think so.

Don't you want to come along?

No, thank you.

I shan't stay long.

Just think, Duncan...

by this time tomorrow night,
we'll be back at Fort William Henry.

We'll have so much to talk about.

We'll certainly have that.

You know what I'm going to do?

No, what?

I'm going to ask Father to have
you transferred back to England

...to London.

I'm not sure I want
to go back to England.

What do you mean?

Well, there's something
about this country I like.

Oh!

Wilderness... full of savages.

Oh, it'll all change.

There's real opportunity
here for a man.

And besides, England's
so dull and civilized.

Duncan...

You know, I...
I feel terribly cold.

Oh, forgive me.

There, how's that?

It's fine, thanks.

You know...

I think you've forgotten
what London's really like.

That's the trouble.

You should have been
there just before we left.

I've never seen it so gay...

Theatres were just
packed every night

and the parties...

Take a look around, Uncas.

Major...

Major, the Iroquoi have tracked us here.
You better wake the others.

On your feet, me proud
beauty. Up you go.

Where's Major Heywood?

Get in the cabin.

How dare you push me!

I'll have you whipped for this!

Keep your voice down. You'll have the
Indians on us with all that cluckin' there.

Come on, now!

I've never been treated
like this in my whole life!

Well, it's time your were,
then. Inside you go.

We have to leave!

David...

Come on, wake up.
We have to go now.

Duncan!

This man is the rudest
person I've ever met!

Now, now, now...

Don't you touch me again!

Many Iroquois coming.

Uh huh.

We've gotta get
moving outta here.

Quickly!

Come along, David.

So you're gonna have
me punished, are you?

I certainly am!

Severely!

In England, ladies
are treated differently.

Oh? How are they treated there?

With respect...

honored and looked up to...

even adored.

"Even adored," huh?

Why?

Oh, you...!

You're impossible!

So your adored, are you?

I shouldn't expect
a savage to...

to understand that women are
respected just because they're women!

That's not reason enough.

The people in this country
are respected for what they do.

How quaint!

Now, take you...

All I ever seen
you do is weep!

You're probably the best weeper
that ever came to North America.

Oh, I will not
stand for this!

Duncan!

Better save your breath, Alice.
We've a hard journey ahead.

You're worn out, dear, but...
we're almost there, aren't we?

That's right.

'Tis almost daybreak.

From the top of
one of those hills

we'll be able to look right
down on Fort William Henry.

All right, let's move.

Is that the hill we see
the fort from, Hawk-Eye?

Well now, maybe, David, but...

hills are funny things.

Sometimes the top
ain't the top at all.

You just find you got another
big climb ahead o' you.

Now that I wish it...

I always wanted to find a place
where I could look down on everything...

like your sister, Alice, here, does.

Oh!

Look, British soldiers!

But they're only a few!

And they have the look
of beaten men about them.

There's Father!

You suppose Montcalm
has taken the fort?

We can find out
soon enough. Come on!

Father!

Father...

Father, these are our
friends, Hawk-Eye and Uncas.

They helped us escape
from the Indians.

Heywood, what is
the meaning of this?

I sent word for you
to stay at Fort Edward.

We never received
your message, sir!

That would be the
dead runner we found.

Did you lose the fort, General?

Yes.

Held out as long as we could.
Expected help from Fort Edward

...but none came.

I surrendered to save the men.
It was an honorable one.

Well, er, bein' an honorable surrender,
I see they let you keep your arms.

And how are you fixed
for a powder and shot?

Er, we... we have none.

Uh huh. And, er, what
about Montcalm's Indians?

Uh, they've returned
to their villages.

Montcalm assures us there'll
be no more trouble from them.

Oh, did he, now?

Well, that was mighty
handsome of 'im.

Do you think we'll be attacked?

General, I am sure of it.

Uh, Cora, Alice, get
in one of those wagons.

Uh, the rest of you,
uh, mount the spare horses!

Put your men at the double, General.
We've got to find a place to make a stand!

Why?
- We're going to be attacked!

Attacked, by whom?
I see nobody!

There's Indians hereabouts.
We can feel them.

I suggest you take
his word for it, sir.

I've learned they know
what they're talking about.

Forward, at the double!

Have your men affix
their bayonets, General.

See to it, Heywood!

Yes, sir.

There's good cover over there
for the ladies. Go on, get it there.

Here, take this to your sister.

I'm going to
the fort to get help.

You stay here. I go.

I know forest.

See if you can find that detachment
that went out on the wild goose chase.

How is he?

His pulse is weakening!

I found this keg of
powder in the wagon!

That'll make a lot of noise,
even if it don't hurt anybody.

Yes, but the Indians
won't know that!

We'll pass it out to the men!

Use the buttons off your
coats, or small stones

anything that'll put a dent
in an Indian at close range!

Alice, come back!

Munro...

Go to Father...

Hawk-Eye...

Yes, Alice?

You were right.

There isn't any room in...

North America for...

for weepers.
