Pocahontas and John Smith (1924)

John Smith tells how Pocahontas fell for him and aroused the jealousy of Chief Hole-in-the-Sock, his bitter rival. After a long chase, the Chief had caught the captain when the latter's escape up a cliff was cut off by a wild bear. Pocahontas had put her broad metal anklet about her lover's neck to deflect the headman's tomahawk, but it was detected and removed by the jealous rival. Just as her lover was about to be decapitated, Pocahontas flung herself across her lover's body and pleaded for his life, explaining to her father that Captain Smith and his brother made such good cough drops.
