The Panther Filming Locations

Andrew McLeod, the Factor, is called "The Panther" by the Indians, owing to his cruelty. He wishes to marry Julie, the daughter of Francois Ledru, a French trapper. Julie is afraid of McLeod and rather than become his wife she runs away. Ledru is terrified when he discovers her absence as he knows McLeod will make him suffer for it, in which fear he is fully justified, as he is beaten and then shot by McLeod. Meantime, Julie, in her wanderings, runs into Father Lezare, who is journeying toward the trading station, and also David Brandt, a hunter. She appeals to them for help and upon David's assertion that he will do anything to help her, she begs him to marry her. After some hesitation on the part of both David and the priest, this is done. McLeod's Indians who have been sent in search of Julie, capture the three and bring them back to the station. There David is tortured by Brandt and Julie is confined in a small room in his house. About this time John Caribou, an Indian returns from a trapping expedition, and upon learning of his good friend Ledru's death, vows to avenge it. He pretends friendliness to McLeod, who tells him to give David a chance to escape with Julie, then to kill David and bring Julie back to him. John pretends to do this but really does help David and Julie to escape He then returns to McLeod and tells him David is dead. McLeod demands to be shown his body. He is led by John to the grave of Ledru and there a fierce struggle takes place between John and McLeod. John is mortally wounded but manages to shoot McLeod while he is making his "get-away."
