Speaker 1: A fiery horse with a speed of lighter cloud of
dust in a hoey high o Silver.
Speaker 2: A lone rangers.
Speaker 1: At around lonely campfires. Throughout the Western United States, cowboys
still tell of the deeds of the mysterious phantom figure
of the Plains, riding his great horse Silver and accompanied
by his faithful Indian companion Tampo. The masked Rider of
Justice devoted his life to the fight against crime and criminals.
And now a Silver's hoops thunder down. The Danger Trail
Adventure comes to life once more. A lone ranger rides again.
Speaker 3: Come on, shatil me so help Hold still.
Speaker 1: As a lone ranger rode by on Silver, he says
that a friend of his needed help.
Speaker 4: It was an important day in the town of Pendleton.
Speaker 1: Young Sandy Tyndale, recently released from jail, was expected on
the stage, and the crowd had gathered to greet him.
Among the people before the stage station was Sheriff Burt Gordon.
He looked sharply around, as though searching for someone he
had expected to be present.
Speaker 5: Curious, I figured he'd be about here somehers you watching
for a share too, That's the odd part of it,
seems you wasn't here when Sandy Tyndale was captured and
sent to jail for two years, wasn't you?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 4: If I come here a year ago, I heard all
about Sandy.
Speaker 5: Though sorriest thing I ever done was to help send
him to jail. Sandy wasn't a bad short just wild
and carefree as a colt, that's all. The fact is
my daughter to know was right stuck on him.
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, the nor's a fine girl. Ain't like her
to judge a man wrong.
Speaker 5: I don't figure she did. Sandy shot it out with
an ordinary poll cap that tried to run a crooked
game of poker?
Speaker 4: You see, m Is that what he went down for?
Speaker 5: That's right? He shot and ride away. He was in hiding,
you savvy outlaw? Eh yeah, But a man with a
white horse and the mask corralled him and fetched him
in the square himself with a law.
Speaker 4: Are the reward money? No?
Speaker 5: The mask mbre wouldn't take the reward. He said a
lot of things to Sandy though, about paying for what
he'd done and going straight.
Speaker 7: It sounds like good sense. Otherwise Sandy might have been
an outlaw a his life.
Speaker 5: Nobody figured that Sandy'd get jailed at all. But we
had a cantangurous coyote on the jury.
Speaker 7: You needn tell me the name.
Speaker 4: I can guess.
Speaker 7: Yeah, banker Puddle, and he's coming down the road right now.
Speaker 5: You're right moret Soneric cuts that ever drawed a breath?
Speaker 3: Where's that stagecoach?
Speaker 8: Hell?
Speaker 3: Where is it?
Speaker 5: You know as well as me, Puddle.
Speaker 9: Aid Carter would have to be late today, just when
he has a cash box aboard for my bank.
Speaker 5: I didn't know nothing about that.
Speaker 9: Well, it's none of the rest true. Five thousand in
cash on board and he has to turn up late.
Speaker 3: It's time.
Speaker 9: There were some laws regarding stages. They ought to be
made to run on time.
Speaker 5: Why don't you speak to Congress about it? Maybe they'd
fix up the weather so there wouldn't be no mudholes
and palm trees and things.
Speaker 9: Poor attempt at being funny.
Speaker 5: Oh hello, Leonora, honey, how do you miss?
Speaker 7: Or?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 9: I suppose you still hold it again me for seeing
young Timdale get what he deserves.
Speaker 10: I'm not interested enough in you, mister Puddle, to hold
anything against him.
Speaker 5: I don't care a puddle. Tim Dale got a raw deel,
but he took it like a man savey, and the
first sombre in this town that tries to throw it
up at him that he's been in jail will have
me to answer for Paul. Yeah, honey, do you think
you had.
Speaker 3: To hunt the mass Man? The captured Sandy would be
in town.
Speaker 5: On the stage, right, Reckon, I was wrong, honey, but
I saw the figured he'd be here.
Speaker 3: Told Sandy he'd see him when he come out of prison.
Speaker 10: All right, I guess I had to think that mass
Man too.
Speaker 3: Now Stan, he'll be coming home. Otherwise he well might
have been a real outlaw. But this time as if
he wasn't. There comes the stage. Come on, fellow, let's
keep saying they're welcome.
Speaker 5: Hey, there ain't no one handling them horses.
Speaker 3: Believe look at the bar.
Speaker 9: Stop that stage and see if my money's the ball.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna cut for a build him dead center.
Speaker 3: Hang on to the wall, Kindale, ain't the boar? See
there's an iron box. Flare, Ain't nothing here? Booted, I've
been wronged. Mike Casher stole.
Speaker 5: You shut up, Let's get down the case.
Speaker 3: It's Sandy Kyndale. He was a board and seen Mike
cashw stolen.
Speaker 5: That's not true.
Speaker 3: Sandy hated crook, no telling what he is. After two
years in jail, he done his just respite.
Speaker 5: What if you go shut up on and off your
mouth in chare.
Speaker 7: If one thing is certain, he is dead and the
stage has been wrong.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the killer ain't dead. Why don't you go get him? Care?
Look at here? What's that a spur? I fancy one
of them. It was catched in the seat of the stage.
Yew father, this.
Speaker 5: Food, let me see it.
Speaker 3: That proves my point. That's all that's needed. I know
that spur. I can't I will leave you.
Speaker 5: You recognize this, honey.
Speaker 10: Yes, it's one of the pair of fancy stirs that
Sandy won at the gotail.
Speaker 3: But he didn't rob the stiege. He didn't kill the driver.
Speaker 6: He was coming home, coming home to meet Paul. He
wouldn't do that.
Speaker 9: Man's cash is gone, tin daylingk here, mare's your spur?
Now shut up, you get him.
Speaker 5: He did come, he was here. I know he'd show up.
Now look at him. Travel. He figures Sandy bus at
his word, and he's out hunting him, and he'll get
him to.
Speaker 3: You gotta find my cake. I gotta shut you up.
Speaker 5: And fight Gun.
Speaker 3: I'm a border to now.
Speaker 1: The lone ranger had waited in town until the arrival
of the stage, but when Sandy did not arrive, he
raced from the station to his small camp in a
grove of cottonwoods, where he met Ton of his faithful
Indian companion. You see, Friend, he wasn't on the stage, Tudder.
The only one on board was the driver, and the
driver was dead.
Speaker 4: What happened?
Speaker 1: Someone shot him with money on board and it was stolen.
Friend to that.
Speaker 4: I'm sure he didn't do it.
Speaker 1: But whoever robbed the stage saw that one of sandy
Spurgs was left to fix the blame on him.
Speaker 4: It's frame up.
Speaker 1: Yes, why you think friend not kill if he did, Tadow,
I'm a poor judge of men. I'll stake almost everything
on Sandy tyndale him in jail two years, and I'm
sure he's learned his lesson. Get your horse saddled, white fellow.
We're going ahead east and try to find Sandy. He's guilty,
he'll pay, He'll see to us that he gets the
limit of the law. But if he isn't guilty, he'll
need a friends and that right because everyone's dead set
against him.
Speaker 4: He'll never get to a trial. He'll be lynched. Ready,
my father, he get him sackle.
Speaker 3: Ready.
Speaker 11: Until you have sent stuff, we'll start.
Speaker 1: The Lone Ranger remembered that on the other occasion, when
Sandy had fled from the law, he had gone into
hiding in a certain cave in a distant valley. Now
with Tanto, the masked man headed for the same cave
once more. The Lone Ranger and his loyal Indian friend
reached the valley. It approached the mouth of the cavern
long after dark. There's a light inside tunnel and hunt
see him.
Speaker 4: No, wait, tuner, Oh, we'll.
Speaker 8: Leave the horses here. It's somebody in the cave. I'm
sure that's where we'll find Sandy. And in my mind,
that will prove that he is not the killer. Why
why that if he were, he didn't know that we'd
come here to find him. It's the same height out
he used before. Maybe him not think about us, Yes
he did. I told him we'd been waiting in town
for him when he came out of prison. Why him,
I'll go to town. Jale does things. The men came
up saving It changes them, makes him feel ashamed to
meet their friends. Right, quite possible. It's done something that
sort of Sandy. Perhaps when he had the chance to
return to town, he didn't feel that he'd be welcome there.
Speaker 3: Quite enough. There he is standing at the entrance to
the cave. Not him, he.
Speaker 6: Killers don't sing like that.
Speaker 9: I'm sure.
Speaker 7: We see him now.
Speaker 3: Yes, he's a hard.
Speaker 4: Sandy. But we came to speak to you.
Speaker 6: You gosh. I I never expected to see you again.
Speaker 4: I told you we'd be waiting for you in town.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I know a friend, but I didn't go to town.
Speaker 4: Everyone expected you to arrive on the stage this afternoon.
Speaker 6: I didn't board the stage. Why, well, I sort of
lost my nerve. I reckon. I oh, I can't go
back there now. You've aged a lot in two years, Sandy,
I reckon, I growed up.
Speaker 4: You knew that Leonor would be waiting for you.
Speaker 6: I'd assume you didn't mention her. She's too fine a
girl too. I don't waste your time on a convict.
Speaker 4: She's still waiting. Why didn't you go on that stage?
Speaker 6: Well, oh shocks. If Leonora never sees me anymore, she'll
forget me and marry a man that's worthwhile me I
know good.
Speaker 4: That's wrong, Sandy. You made a mistake and you've paid
for it.
Speaker 6: You paid in full in your square with the world,
no home, no money, nothing I can do.
Speaker 4: You can do what any other man in this country
can with a.
Speaker 6: Jail record behind me. Yes, and that orn reck coyote
banker Pottle again me.
Speaker 8: Why are you letting a man like him interfere with
your success? He's rich nor doesn't care about money.
Speaker 6: Well, I ain't gonna spoil a life of the finest
woman in the world.
Speaker 1: And that's left by the way, Sandy. Where are the
silver spurs you want at that rodeo?
Speaker 6: Gosh? I don't know. I ain't seen him in a
long time, I reckon. The last time I had them
was before I got into trouble.
Speaker 4: Where did you leave them?
Speaker 6: I left them with what other stuff I had and
that old shack where I was living.
Speaker 4: Sandy, you're going to town.
Speaker 6: With us, sorry, mister, but I ain't doing no such thing.
Speaker 4: Where's your gun?
Speaker 6: I ain't got no gun. That's just it, don't you see,
I ain't nothing at all. They took everything I had
when I went to jail. What was left in my
old shack is likely cleaned out of powers by this time.
Speaker 4: I'll tell you why you're going to town with me.
Speaker 6: There was some of banker Pottle's money on that stage
that you were supposed to be on.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the money was.
Speaker 6: Stolen, stolen, and I suppose they suspect me. They do,
and they'll frame me for it. Don't you see what
chance would I have with my record?
Speaker 4: The driver of the stage was killed.
Speaker 6: Then it's the hangman's rope. If they get me, possibly
and you want me to go back.
Speaker 4: You're going back. If you're innocent, you'll have to prove it.
Speaker 6: I listened to you once before I went back, and
they sent me down for two years. They ruined my life.
They took all I had.
Speaker 3: I look at me.
Speaker 6: I ain't nothing.
Speaker 4: You're going back.
Speaker 6: I ain't. You can't make me go back.
Speaker 4: Gun to the ghetto horses. We'll have to take Sandy
with us.
Speaker 6: Me get them for.
Speaker 4: My back was turned Sandy. Why didn't you get a
gun on me?
Speaker 6: I told you didn't have no gun.
Speaker 4: And that's one thing more to convince me that you
did not rob that stage.
Speaker 6: I told you I didn't, but I can't prove it.
Who believe me?
Speaker 4: We'll find out who'll believe you.
Speaker 1: You see one of the spurs I asked you about
was put on the stage to pin the blame on you.
Speaker 6: Then they're sure to hang me. They won't even give
me a trial, they'll lynch me.
Speaker 4: Come on, teller's bringing the horses.
Speaker 6: Now. Now look here, I had a chance.
Speaker 5: Come.
Speaker 6: Won't you give me no chance at all? It's the
same as murdered me. To take me back.
Speaker 8: You're going to go back to town with us and
clear your name, But I tell you some of your
own quarter? Or shall I put a rope on you?
Speaker 3: All right?
Speaker 6: I ain't no choice, mister, I'll go.
Speaker 1: The curtain falls on the first sect of our running
lone range of drama. Before the next exciting scenes, please
brymitt us to Paulls.
Speaker 4: For just a few moments.
Speaker 1: Now to continue our story, The stage that was expected
to bring Sandy Tindy after a two year term in
prison for a youthful escapade arrived empty. The driver murdered,
money consigned to the bank stolen. A fancy spur known
to belong to Sandy was found caught in the stage,
and banker Pottle accused the absent Sandy of the theft.
The lone Ranger found Sandy hiding in a cave and
forced him to return to town. As our second act opens,
we see the masked man and sandyton Dale riding through
the night toward Pendleton.
Speaker 4: I'll give you my word, Sandy, they'll not lynch you.
Speaker 1: I don't know how you can stop him by letting
you escape.
Speaker 6: By the time they get a lynch mob formed, it'll
be too late to try and escape.
Speaker 3: I'd even got a horse.
Speaker 1: If youre re innocent, you have nothing to worry about.
Speaker 6: You don't know what Poddle is like.
Speaker 4: I want to find out. I want to know more
about that man.
Speaker 6: Well, he's bound and determined that I ain't gonna get
to marry Leonore. What he's been flying for years to
get her to marry him, the old coyote, he's old
enough to be her Paul.
Speaker 4: I didn't know, ye that sort of idea.
Speaker 6: Well, he has the chances I Leonor would better off
to marry him. He's got a plenty of cash. He
could give her everything at money ad by.
Speaker 1: So that was his main purpose. And insisting that the
jury send you to jail. Yeah, I didn't know that well.
Speaker 6: That's the case. That's why I'm sure to be blamed
for the robbery. Why, folks all know I had reason
to bear a grudge again, Poddle, if it wasn't for him,
I've been let go free.
Speaker 3: They'll figure I told.
Speaker 1: His case just to get even, and that with the
spur makes a pretty strong case against you, Sandy.
Speaker 6: Sure, unless unless, what unless we can find the real
thief sucks the inner chance he's covered his pack too well,
folks will lynched me before they bothered the hunt for
anyone else.
Speaker 4: We'll camp outside of the town tonight. You stay in
the camp with Suto.
Speaker 7: What are you gonna do?
Speaker 4: See what I can learn about the case against you?
Oh shucks?
Speaker 3: What's the use?
Speaker 1: Why just let me go and save yourself a lot
of bother Because Sandy, I believe you're innocent.
Speaker 4: Come on there, Silver.
Speaker 1: The lone ranger left Sandy and Tonto in camp, then
proceeded into town alone. In the meantime, Pottle, the banker
had called in the sheriff. Pottle was in an unpleasant
frame of mind.
Speaker 3: I don't like you.
Speaker 9: Ratitude only thing, Shelff. What's more, I'm gonna see that
you get to account for hitting me.
Speaker 5: Save your wind, Puddle. Maybe you can bold those other
folks around town, but you can't get away with your
high handed ways with me.
Speaker 3: No, well we'll see about that. What have you done
about forming a posse?
Speaker 5: I ain't formed one.
Speaker 3: What have you done about searching for Sandy Tyndale?
Speaker 5: What I do about my office ain't none of your affair.
You run your bank, I'll run my office.
Speaker 3: So that's the way you feel about it.
Speaker 5: That's just how I feel about it, And you can
like it a lump it.
Speaker 3: Well, I don't like it. You're showing partiality, that's what
you're doing. Just because your daughter's in love with Kyndale.
You're willing to let him get away with murder.
Speaker 5: That murther ain't going to be got away with Puddle.
The killer will hang for it, just as soon as
I'm convinced who done it?
Speaker 3: What's that? Who done it?
Speaker 9: I'm telling you who done it? Sandy Kindale done it.
There's no wind of proof?
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, es, what's that? Proof consists of his spur
mm hmm grant and he had his spurs on when
he left the prison. I'm expecting the deputy here most
sent him in now, and he'll tell me all about that.
What do you mean I reckon?
Speaker 4: You heard me?
Speaker 5: Puddle?
Speaker 9: Well you ain't hurt the last to me. You do
your duty as you should, or I'll make this comedy
too hot to hold you.
Speaker 5: I'm going to try and do my duty, Puddle, as
I should. Now, good night to you Dad, right at
old Cuss.
Speaker 10: Oh you know that I sit drop at that door.
Speaker 3: I want to speak to you.
Speaker 4: What is it the.
Speaker 5: Begin?
Speaker 3: I just state what's on your mind.
Speaker 10: You've you've been asking me to marry you.
Speaker 3: Well that offer still, who's good?
Speaker 7: Lenore.
Speaker 9: I know I'm older than you, but I'm settled. What's more,
I got plenty of k I know. I'll give you
a fine.
Speaker 6: Home, good clothes, the best of every life.
Speaker 10: I would marry you, mister Poddle, if you leave Sandy
Kinday alone. I know Sandy didn't drop that date. He
couldn't do a thing like that. He couldn't kill a man.
Speaker 3: That's a woman's notion.
Speaker 6: It's true.
Speaker 10: He was a murderer, a thief. Do you think I
married you just to save him?
Speaker 3: My money might have something to do with it.
Speaker 10: If I wanted your money, i'd have married you before this.
I don't want money. I want Danny to be left alone.
He didn't come back here because he'd.
Speaker 6: Forgotten about me. He want to forget it.
Speaker 4: He may, but I don't want him hang.
Speaker 10: He will hang if.
Speaker 3: He's down, he'll be found and hang if it takes
every dime. I got so now you'd marry me?
Speaker 5: Huh?
Speaker 3: Now when by doing it you can save tim Dale's life.
Speaker 6: No, no, mister Powler. I thought I could, but I can't.
I couldn't marry you, not even to saved his life.
Speaker 9: Save his life, I'll spend all I got to see
him hang. Pottle ask you, what are you coming here for?
Speaker 3: Something? To tell you?
Speaker 12: It's important? Play Well, we gotta do something. I just
learned that the deputy is heading this way for the share.
Now that spur was a bad idea to the deputy,
that Tindale didn't have them spurs with him.
Speaker 3: I didn't fink you're on the shrif of checking like that, Martin.
The only way is to locate Tindale and get a
mob to Lynch.
Speaker 4: Bartle did not know that the lone ranger was nearby listening.
Speaker 1: When the math man had the information he needed, he
mounted Silver and urged the great horse toward his camp
while a plan formed in his mind.
Speaker 4: As he entered camp, he shall to the paddle and Sandy,
no one.
Speaker 3: Follow me?
Speaker 6: What's happened?
Speaker 1: You're going to the Sheriff's house, then the back of
Puddle and take her chance on being free.
Speaker 4: But I listen to me. You know that Leonora told
Potol that she'd marry him.
Speaker 6: Well that's her privilege.
Speaker 3: Yes as well.
Speaker 6: I didn't plan to go back and hope to marry her.
Speaker 4: She's willing to marry him to save you.
Speaker 1: She trying to get his promise to give up the
search for you. What that girl begged Puddle to leave
you alone, begged him to take her instead of you.
Speaker 6: Done that?
Speaker 1: Yes, she doesn't care what the future holds for her
without you. She has no future. For two years, she'd
been waiting for you to come back, and you didn't come.
She doesn't think you're a murder and the thief. She
thinks that you've forgotten her, and girl loves you. Then
come on, I'll tell you what to do. I'll show
you how to find the real thief.
Speaker 3: Hire.
Speaker 1: Late that night, while Potto was sleeping, Stealthy footsteps could
be heard making their way through his house. Finally they
paused beside the banker's bed. Poddle awakened suddenly and saw,
revealed by the light of a lamp, the figure the
lone ranger.
Speaker 4: Wake up?
Speaker 3: What's this mean? Who are you? Is this a robbery?
What's the idea.
Speaker 4: You'll find up?
Speaker 3: Him?
Speaker 4: Into the other room. The sheriff is here to speak
to you.
Speaker 3: The sheriff.
Speaker 4: Yes, come on into the other room, open that.
Speaker 3: Door, all right, stop shopping me. Well, mister, has you
got Tindale yet? What's this mass man working with you for?
What's this mean?
Speaker 5: I'll take it easy, Poddle, I reckon, I got some
right good news for you. Well, we got to send it.
Hindal You got him good good? Where is he right outside?
I suppose you will want to have a talk with him,
won't you?
Speaker 3: Yes? Yes, betch you mean? But who is this man?
Speaker 5: Oh? He's the sort of a special deputy. That's all
his parts holding Tindale?
Speaker 4: Bring him in, Paddle.
Speaker 6: Where it's been some time since we see each other.
Speaker 3: Paddle you murdering thief?
Speaker 6: I reckon, there's a right strong case again me.
Speaker 3: Ain't they you were hanged that's what you do.
Speaker 6: Look here, Poddle, I gave the sheriff back part of
the cash.
Speaker 5: Why yeah, he had the box or some of the cash.
I put it on the floor there.
Speaker 6: I didn't kill a man, I guess. Ain't no use
in my trying to make anyone believe then, no.
Speaker 5: Use at all, Poddle. He tells the thinnest yarns you
ever heard.
Speaker 8: You shouldn't get back any of the money. I'm sorry
to see tindale'll get caught. Why don't you let him
tell his story?
Speaker 4: Puddle?
Speaker 3: What's his story? Where's the rest of the cash?
Speaker 6: Listen, mister Pottle, you gotta believe me. I met a
man and they give me that box and a couple
thousand dollars in it. He said, not to mention where
I got it from. I didn't know it was stolen.
I didn't know I was even suspected to thee until
I come to town.
Speaker 3: Who gave it you?
Speaker 5: I don't know what was That story's too thin. That's
about what I thought, Poddle. He's probably got the rest
hid somewhere.
Speaker 3: Take him to the jail, lock him up, hold him
for killing the stage driver.
Speaker 9: I'll see him hang coming with us, Poddle, No, I reckon,
I'll turn in have a busy day tomorrow.
Speaker 4: Come on Dale to.
Speaker 3: Jail, will you.
Speaker 1: Shortly after the men had left, Pottle hurried from his
house and went straight to a shack. Without pausing, he
burst through the door and roughly awakened his henchman.
Speaker 3: Wake up, wake up you double cross and sneak and
faith you? Where's my money?
Speaker 7: Know what you're talking about?
Speaker 3: Come on? You know all right? You stole it from
the house, then gave the box from some of the
cash to Tindale. No one. I couldn't say anything about
the rest of it. You figured you'd get away with
the rest. You're crazy local.
Speaker 4: I never done no such thing.
Speaker 3: I won't stand for your lion.
Speaker 9: You'll hand over my cash.
Speaker 3: Or I'll tell a law on you.
Speaker 9: I'll tell him who killed that man and who planted
Kyndale's old spur in the state.
Speaker 3: Why you where's that money? I got it?
Speaker 1: Listen to me, you start trying to squeal on me,
and see where kit you so?
Speaker 4: Who hired me to rob the stage and frame Sandy?
Speaker 3: Tell him that the cash was in your house all
the time you was raising caine about it being stolen.
Who'd believe you against me? Find someone a sheriff in
a fool he knows a soord onerous snake. You are
all right, then, I'll handle it my way. Give me that.
Speaker 9: Cash, or I'll bring you right here. You don't there,
don't I I can find someone to blame for murdering you.
You double crossing rat. You come to meet me when
I was at the girl's place with some sort of
yarn about the spur story not being believed.
Speaker 3: I savvy it now.
Speaker 9: You just tried to make me think I was in danger,
so I wouldn't make too much fuss about the cash
st I.
Speaker 4: Never truched your money after I brought it to you.
Speaker 3: Give me that cash, Rapho, I ain't caught it. I'll
tell you I heard it.
Speaker 2: QUI poddle, don't you're wrong and.
Speaker 3: Stay off the gun ward of it. Puddle your cover
you again.
Speaker 6: We're all here, Poddle to hear the confession.
Speaker 5: I reckon we'd get you before morning. You're the man
said the killer of the stage driver had to hang,
Ain't him?
Speaker 3: I didn't do. It's as much to blame as I am.
Speaker 5: We will settle that in court. And I don't reckon,
There'll be many men in your favor on that jewelry puddle.
Come on, Sandy will take these to to jail, and
then I reckon. Lenor will be waiting enough to see us.
Speaker 6: Gosh, I don't know why I've ever done to deserve
friends like I got.
Speaker 3: Come on, Till boy, to the fencher of the trail ahead.
Speaker 4: We've got to me puzzle, he still.
Speaker 9: At.
