A sleepy little town nestled in some out of the way valley close by a cattle range. Such a town was Longhorn. Population 300. Seldom did Longhorn see any strangers. But now as our story opens, six hard looking men ride along the single street. Mace Leder, killer and cattle rustler has come to town. Quite a town, eh Mace? Yeah, we ought to wake it up a little, huh? Well, not now, Fox. Later on, maybe after we Run some of them cattle out there up into one of the canyons. We do that tonight. Yeah. Sun'll be going down pretty soon now and we'll get busy. Hey, look. Is that old geezer sitting out front of the jail? The marshal must be wearing a star. That young one over on the bench must be his deputy. You know, Fox, I always wanted to rustle cattle wearing a Marshall star. Good idea, Mace. I can't think of no better place for that old goat than to be in his own jail. Oh, boy. You Fox, watch that deputy. See you don't make no trouble. Sure, Mace. Hey, Marshall, wake up. Who are you? Amre. What do you want? First off, I'll take that star. You give me that star back. Sure, sure, take it. Give me that or I'll draw on you right ahead. Watch a Macy's, you killer. Maybe you'd like to draw on me, Deputy. No, I ain't gunfighting six to one. But I sure know where I can find somebody who will gunfight you. Get up there. Come on down. Hey, Lance, you and Walt go after that young squirt. You better get him right, Mason. Come on. I don't know whether I killed this old buzzard or not. That don't make no difference. Some of you hombres take him into the jail and throw him into a cell. I'm beginning to enjoy myself in. Be right to see Marshall Danforth, Cisco. No see, Pancho. Be good to see Marshall Danforth again. Not seen him for nearly five years. He old man now, Cisco. Oh, she's getting old, amigo. Uh huh. But at one time he was one of the finest, the bravest sheriffs in the whole West. Brave sheriff, eh? And according to the last letter I had from him, he is still in law enforcement work as marshal of the town of Longhorn. He made a company, Cisco. And that mean we stay in this country a while, huh? We'll stay around for a few days and visit with Marshall Danforth and meet some of his friends. Good punch. You like to rest for a while? Do us both good, Pancho. Rider come this way, Cisco. Oh, see? Far behind him, two more riders come right this way, too. Cisco, can you ride to town with me quick? The marshal's been gunned down. Marshal Danforth has? Yeah. And them two Omris coming here, a part of his gang. They're riding to get me, too. They stopped now, sir. You depp and they not come no nearer. I ain't scared of two of them, but six was too many. I knew your camp was out this Way, Cisco. I rode by this noon and saw you from a distance. Will you come with me, see? We will. Bandidos. Turn around. Ride back, Cisco. Coyotes. The mavericks let us ride after them up there. Come on. We're not going to catch them at this distance, Cisco. Perhaps not. We'll give them something to think about. Did you throw him into a cell, Fox? Yeah, he's still alive. Want me to go back and finish him off? No, just leave him there. What's that? It sounds like thunder. That's what it is, all right. See them clouds piling up off there? I don't know whether we better try to run off any of them cattle tonight or not. The weather might spook them, huh? Yeah. That's a big herd out there. Once them longhorns started stampeding, they'd be mighty hard to stop. Besides that, I need all hands. Lance and Wall ain't got back yet. Don't suppose that kid deputy gunned them both down, do you, Mace? Not unless he got enough of a start so as he could dry gulch him. That's just what I was thinking. Maybe we ought to ride out along the trail and find out, huh? They got dry gulps. That's their hard luck. We'll go out after some of them cattle. Fox. Get the other two boys. We'll get started. We almost catch up with him, Cisco. Yeah, Poncho, look. They're stopping at the Geo, Cisco. They're going to shoot it out with us. Where's Thunder Space, Little boy? Never mind that, Rob. Draw your guns. Ah, those chaotis mean business. But also we mean business. Back them down the altar. Right now. Right now. Be careful where you point that gun over me. Like to have a part of that meat, aren't you? Get me somebody, Cisco. I'll help you. Punch you. Come on. Come on. Punch you in the nose. Waste no more time with you than I can help. Just about one more cut. Punch. Yeah. Nice work, Cisco. I'll get his guns and put the handcuffs on him. See it every this coyote all through, Cisco. Why not Pancho? Where's the marshal, Deputy? I don't know. Unless these buzzards threw him into the jail. You'll see. Come Pancho. Marsha not here. In the office, Cisco. Look out in the cell block. Chico. Possible they took him out there. Come on, you blasted killers. Out. Here's the marshal, Cisco. He not sound like he did. No, no, he's not dead. Senior marshal. We are not the banter. I say your marshal. We are the Cisco Kid and Pancho. And Pancho come on, let us go in the cel. At least the bandidos did not lock the cell door and take the key. Who'd you say you were? Well, by thunder, Cisco. Yeah, an old butterball poncho. Say, Senior Marzo, old butterball poncho, you're happy to find you alive, senor. Here, let me take a look at that wound, Cisco. One time I packed more lead than this in my carcass and still brought in a bank robber. Tough no good for you, Senor Marjo. Just the same, you had better take care of that wound of yours, why don't you? And I will help you to your home. Home nothing. I'm going after the skunks that gunned me down. Deputy is bringing in two of them. There's four more of them. And I heard them talking outside saying they was going after cattle. That'll most likely be the big herd over on the mesa. Get in there. You two go. Stay there. Hey. Better put leg irons on them, deputy. Sure will, Marshal. Say, mighty glad to see you on your feet. And this time I'm gonna stay on them. But, Senor Marshal, those hombres would not be foolish enough to try to rustle cattle on a night like this. That's what they're going to do. Cattle stamped a thing and cattle run over them. That's why I'm going right out there. I don't want the cattle to get him. I want to get them. Well. It's not hard to understand, Senor Marshal, how you made such a reputation for yourself as a fighting sheriff. Easy to to under. Under. See the marshal a good fighter. Know look to your guns, Pancho. We are riding with the marshal. Sure is going to be tough to cut out any of them cattle tonight without spooking the whole blasted herd. That's right, miss. I'll have to take it easy. All right. Easy. Yeah. Where's Harley? He rode back to the jail. Didn't know but what Lance and Walt might have come back. Look, Fox, I told you if they was gunned down, that was their hard luck. Yeah, but I. I'll do the thinking just to make sure you know it. I'm running things. Don't forget it. Sure, Mace. I ain't forgetting it. The blame fool. Only know that might spook them cattle. It's Harley. Hola. Oh, hoa. Hey, Mace. Mace Walton. Lancer in jail. The old marshal's on his way out here. The marshal? I thought I killed him. And that ain't all. The Cisco kids with him. What a Cisco Kid and that fat partner of his. I saw him starting out. Cisco Kid's a mighty bad hombre to mix with, Mace. Yeah, I know it. I mixed with him once over in Santa Fe. I've been waiting for the chance to get back at him ever since. Hey, I got an idea. What's that? They riding in from that direction. Harley. Yeah. Good. That'll put him into a pocket. And if we can spook all these longhorns at him from an angle, it'll run them off over the rimrock. Come on, let's ride over behind the herd. Harley, you ride back along the trail. And when they get into the pocket, fire a signal shot. Let's go. Storm get near us. He skull see? We'll break in a few minutes. I cannot imagine any hombres in the right sense trying to rustle cattle on a night like this. There's a big herd, Isco. See? I would not want to be in front of them to herds of stampede. Are you sure those homares rode out this way? Senior marshal heard them say they was going to Cisco there. Let us stop and listen. Hold up, hold up. Fanch not hear nothing but cattle. Cisco, I do not like this place we are in. Let us go this way and ride around that herd. I figure that's a good idea. You are right, Senor Marshal. Those hombres are here. Madre mia. Those long horns are stampeding this way. A Marshall puncho up your heart on the right. Hey, be lucky if we escape that St. Pete Poncho. Jesus. Go. We need the edge of the rim too. Cannons not stop for nobody. What's the matter, Cisco? The marshal has fallen from his horse. The horse may have stepped in the go hole. Poncho, keep on riding. I'm going back. You go back, Cisco. But those cannons killed you. I cannot leave the Marshall lying there. Right on, Pacho. Popo. This way. Tonight we used to burn over back. Now Pacho Madre. There's no need for both of us to risk our lives. Go back. Go back. And so our friends ride directly into the face of the stampeding longhorns. In just a moment, we'll return to the Cisco Kid. Step into the world of power, loyalty and luck. I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse with family. Cannolis and spins mean everything thing. Now you want to get mixed up in the family business.

Now back to the Cisco Kid in our gripping story Longhorns on Stampede. Arriving in the town of Longhorn, Sisko and Pancho found that their old friend Marshall Danforth had been shot down by a roistering gang of rustlers. But the tough old marshal recovered quickly and insisted on riding with Cisco and Pancho out onto the mesa. Meanwhile, the rustlers tipped off that our friends were after them, spooked the uneasy cattle. Just then the marshal's horse threw him directly in the path of the stampeding longhorns. Now, Pancho. I tell you go back. You not go back. Cisco, vajo. Help Cisco save the marsh. Will not take two of us, Pancho. Why don't you go where Cisco goes? Cisco. Ah, Santos. If we get out of this alive, I will have to talk to you, Senior Marshall. Stand up on your feet if you can. I'll have to swing you to the saddle. Is that right by? It's going to be close. Punch off in the air P or trying to turn the stamp beaches. Back you cattle. Back. Hi. Hi. No use Pancho. You cannot stop them. Get ready, Marshall. Swing your body this way. Yep. Where does Cisco pick up the marshal? Ah, this way. Diablo run. Yeah, sure thought I was a caller. You're not out of danger yet. This way. She's going the rim rock. I think we can make it to the side. Pyro's turn a little bit, Cisco. Hey, Pancho. Yeah. Now we are safe over there. Wait here for us, Senor Marshal. What you gonna do, Cisco? I'm going to try and turn those cattle. We cannot let them plunge over that rim robber until we can help it all over. Turn the cattle. If we can only turn the lasers and start them building poncho. The others will follow. Yee ha. Few longhorns turn Yah. Hey, hey. Turn your low hun. Turn around your grave. Yeah. They're turning Pancho. Once more. Yeah. Blowhounds back this way. It's working, Pancho. There you go. We turn them. Cisco and I'll go over the rib racks. Hey, glad we could turn him. Oh, they're easy now. Easy, Lobo, easy. Slow down. Oh, here come the Marshall. Cisco. I found my horse is going. He got out of the way of stampede. Ah, bueno, Senor Marshal. Where are the riders with this herd? Sid Graylin owns this herd. He's mighty shorthanded. A man right now. But I'll ride to his place and see if he can't turn out a couple riders. He had better if he wants to save the herd. Bancho and I will stay here with these cattle until you return, Senor Marshal. And then we are going after those hombres who started the stampede. I want him for another reason, too, Cisco. For gunning me down and Punch. You want them to practice at the seat of the Patalonis with the bull whip? No. You feel able, Senior Marshall. Go get those riders and be as quick as you can. Well, I figure that's the end of the Cisco Kid, Vox. I don't know, Mace. Them cattle turned clear over by the rimrock. Yeah, but they was mighty close. I believe they ran Cisco and the other two over the edge. Now we'll go back to that jail and see about Walt and Lance, that young deputy, if he's there. Didn't Harley say he thought he saw that deputy? Yeah, we'll gun him down mighty quick. But, Mace. Well, I figure we ought to ride over by that rim rock. I ain't so sure, but what? Cisco got away. I said we was riding to that jail, fox. That's what we're doing. Them clouds are going to open up any minute. We'll get a regular old sod. Soaker. There she comes now. I ain't aiming to get any wetter than I can help. After we get Walt and Lance out of jail, we'll go over to the cafe and make a night of it. Get up. Come on, Santo. Cisco, in this rain so heavy, Pancho feel like a duck. See, Pancho? But there is nothing we can do about it. We must wait here for the marshal. Pancho hope you come back soon. And Pancho feel like Pancho standing under the waterfall. Well, Chico, there's no place we can go for shelter. Just wait out here in the rain, Cisco. Pancho tell Pancho the riddle. And Pancho like to hear a riddle that make pounce not think so much about the rain. Very well, amigo. I will tell you a riddle. How do you get down off an elephant's back? Get down over elephant's back that easy, Cisco? It punch you up on the elephant's back. And punch you slide down the elephant. It's strong. No, no, no, no. It's wrong. It's wrong. That is the riddle. Oh, you do not get down off an elephant. You get down off a duck. Get down off a duck? What do you mean, Cisco? Pancho don't understand. The dog's so Small Pancho not kid. Get up on the dog's back. In the first place, you're kind of a dog, see, Pancho. You get down off a duck. The kind of down you put in pillows. And Pancho know now when Pancho want to take his siesta. And Pancho like to have a soft pillar for Pancho's head. And the pillar fill with down. Get it down from the duck and not from the elephant. He's a good riddle, Cisco. Well, it has to pass the time, Chico. But I'm worried about the marshal. It's not good for him to be out in this rain. Get downloaded. Got to remember this. What'd you say, Cisco? I said it is not good for the marshal to be out in this rain. Not with a bad wound, Cisco. That is just it, Pancho. The marshal is very tough, but there is a limit to what he can stand. Cannot get uneasy again, Cisco. See? But I do not think they will stampede again. Maybe they hear someone riding this way. Franchise, I think they hear anything in this rain. There is the rider. Just saw him in that flash of lightning. Who is the marshal, Cisco? Did you get the rider, Senor Marshal? Yeah. Sit. Sending a couple right out. They're right close behind me. Bueno. How about yourself, Senior Marshall? How are you feeling? Oh, I. Pete. Fine, Cisco, fine. I do not like to doubt you, but I think we had better be getting to town as fast as possible. To your house after them coyotes are rounded up, Cisco. I ain't going home before Cisco the Marshall week. He wobble in the saddle, see, Pancho? Watch him closely. Right by his side, Marshall. Need to go to bed very quick. See? There's a great pride, Pancho. Pride of doing the job to a finish. That is why he was such a great sheriff in his day. Here comes the riders to look after the cattle. Then let us get started. We have a score to settle as soon as possible. There's a trail, Mace, right ahead of us. Somebody's there. Too light in the office anyway. Probably that kid deputy. I sure hope so. Oh, there. Fox, you come on with me. All right. You two boys stay out here and keep watch. Just in case that Cisco Kid did get away. And he'll be riding back here. You can get Sheller under that roof of the shed. Come on, Fox. Hey, Deputy. Heard us coming. Looked out the window, Mace. Yeah, but Thunder. He put out that lamp, too. Wait a minute. What do we do now? We'll sneak up and I'll open that door quick. Then duck back if he fires. Fox, you Shoot at the gun, Flash. All right, come on now. He ain't in there. Mace. Hear that other door close? He ran out in the cell block. Come on then, we'll go get him. Hey boys, get around back of the jail and keep watch. Deputy May try to get away through the back. Follow me, Fox. All right, keep your guns handy. I got him. Darker in the bottom of a mill pond in here. I take a chance and light the lamp. You crazy? We'll find him in the dark. We'll feel our way to him. Fox. Here's the cell block door. Hey, Walt, Lance, you in there? We'll have you out in no time after we kill this deputy. Come on and get me, you coyotes. That's just what we're gonna do. Starting right now. Take it easy, Fox. No rush about this. That flash of lightning. There he is down at the end of this corridor. He's got to stay there. There ain't any other place he can go. Open up again, Fox. Sure will. No. Got him, you murderous. Yeah, we kind of got you now. I. Deputy, as soon as that lightning flashes again, we'll get a real beat on you and finish you off. And there's the lightning. Just enough for me to see you. Omri and I just think we'll just go and gun boxes. There's nobody for part to take. All right, Cisco, if you want to fight, you'll sure get it seeing. Perhaps you better get some of it too, Homony. Imagine that. You'd see nothing. There's two more of the coyotes out back of the sea. Sit on SpongeBob. We've came today. Just one more flash of lightning and. Ah, there it is. Time enough to aim for your jaw, hominy. That should hold you for a moment or two. You all right, deputy? Yeah, sure, Cisco. One of their bullets just winged how to get a match lighted so we can see what we're doing there. Now go into the office and light the lamp. Just a moment till I get these guns. Now I'll go out and help the marshal and Pancho. All right, Poncho, I got both the critters now. Sounds like they don't need help. Cisco. You take care of those two hombres back there. Deputy. Meanwhile, I will bring in the two other prisoners. Because now, whether he wants to or not, the marshal is going home to bed and get a well deserved rest. How are you feeling now, senior Marshall? Me? Why, I'm fine, Cisco. Fine. That is nonsense that Doc keeping me in bed this way. All that wound do is kill almost any Other senor, he's kept me in bed now for three days and says I gotta stay here a week more. Bless it all, at least in the tone of your voice you are getting better. I tell you, I was all right, Cisco. Why, certainly you were. When I was younger, I took 10 bullets and kept on after. Listen to me bragging. If any man has a right to brag, you have, Senor Marshall. Nobody likes to hear it do. That's right nice of you, Poncho. Say, would you two do me a favor? Just name it. Would you hang around the town till I'm up and about again? My deputy's a mighty good boy, but he's a might green. And if you was here to back him up. Of course we will stay. Cisco. She a pretty segue on his sleeve this morning. Watch out. She smiled at Cisco too. Now here, Pancho, of course we say SIU Marshal, we stay for you. But that senorita with Mile and Cisco helps some too, no? You remember when we waiting out in a measure in the rain for the Marshall to come back, See? I remember. Chico, you remember the riddle do the, Pancho? But how do you not get down off the elephant? You get down off the duck, see? I'm glad you remembered the riddle, Pancho. Perhaps you can tell it to someone else one of these days, Pancho. Remember this very good riddle about it, Doc? Poor little duck. Poor little duck. Why do you say that, Pancho? Poor little duck. Oh, this dog, Pancho, thinking about you, is the little teeny weeny baby dog he just hatched from the egg, Cisco. Oh, a very small duck, Chico. Very small dog. Would you like to hear a little Cisco? Yeah, Migo, if you have one. I would like to hear one about a little baby duck. Cisco, you know why the little baby duck walks softly? Why the little duck walks softly? No, Chico, I do not know. Why does a little duck walk softly? Because the little baby duck cannot walk hardly. Oh, Poncho. Oh. And so ends another exciting adventure with O.
