Synopsis
Geronimo and his band of renegades make forays into Mexico, where the Mexicans fight against the intrusion, but not too successfully.

Finally, Geronimo tires of running and surrenders, and months later, the once feared warrior is reduced to selling his picture and autograph at the World's Fair in St. Louis.
