Tap Roots

When she lost her lover...her sister gained one!

As the Civil War begins, a Mississippi county chooses to secede from the state rather than enter the conflict. An abolitionist and a Native American gentleman protect the county from the Confederacy. The abolitionist's daughter is courted by a powerful newspaper publisher after her fiancé, a Confederate officer, elopes with her sister. She initially resists the publisher's advances but later seeks his help when her ex-fiancé plans to capture the seceding county for the South.
