A Romance of the Redwoods is a 1917 American silent drama film directed by Cecil B. DeMille and starring Mary Pickford.

Several offer to take the little girl to live with them, when the lawyer announces that the last wish of her mother was that she be sent to her uncle John Lawrence (Winter Hall), who left for the California gold mines two months previous.

John Lawrence, the uncle, has been killed by Indians and his body is found by "Black" Brown (Elliot Dexter), a road agent who is being pursued by the sheriff's posse.

Taking complete charge of the house, she prepares for Jack the first good breakfast he has had for some time and a warm friendship springs up between the two.

Jenny connects the robbery with the handkerchief, picks up the letter from his mother to the murdered miner and goes to her cabin where she prepares to leave immediately.

Jack enters with a new dress, bonnet and doll for Jenny but the latter refuses them and shows the letter of the dead boy to his mother, together with the bandit mask she discovered.

He holds up the stagecoach in which unknown to him Jenny is riding with Jim Lyn (Charles Ogle), her date for a country picnic at Indian Bar.

Just as her sweetheart is about to be hanged from the cabin rafters, Jenny returns to the room with a little white dress, which she has secretly taken from the doll, and the apparent significance of the situation dawns upon the men, who are very fond of her.
