From out of the past come the thundering hoof beats of the great horse.

[Brace Beamer]

Silver.

[Fred Foy]

The Lone Ranger rides again.

[Brace Beamer]

Come on, Silver. Let go, big fella. Are you Silver?

[Fred Foy]

Tonto, Indian companion to the Lone Ranger, returned from the town of Stockton to a camp in the hills where the masked man was waiting.

[Brace Beamer]

Oh, Scott. Oh, fella.

[Fred Foy]

Easy, scuff. Easy, fella.

[Narrator]

Did you inquire at the post office

[Brace Beamer]

for males Ono me get letters that come from Dan.

[Fred Foy]

Oh, good.

[Narrator]

I've been waiting to hear from him since he went back to school. See what he has to say. Wait, I'll read it aloud. Tono.

[Brace Beamer]

That's good.

[Narrator]

Dear uncle and Tono, I miss being with you very much and can't wait for the Christmas holidays to come so that I may be with you again.

[Brace Beamer]

And Dan, like all other boys, Chemos happy him wants schooling but look forward to vacations.

[Narrator]

That's right. He goes on to say, I had a little trouble when I reached a town where I changed from the stagecoach to the train. A fellow a couple of years older than I was browbeating a young Indian brave at the station. I interfered and got a terrific black eye for my trouble. But you ought to see the other fellow.

[Brace Beamer]

Damn grown up plenty fast.

[Fred Foy]

Came as abbey.

[Brace Beamer]

What else him say?

[Narrator]

Let's see. The Indian boy who said his name is Little Bear insisted I take a carved silver medallion he wore around his neck and a thin chain. In return, I gave him a silver bullet I had in my pocket. I'm sending the medallion to Tonto to keep for me. As soon as I can locate a small box to send it in. The fellow whose name I found out later is Max Casson. Swore he'd get even with Little Bear. I'm sure the Indian will keep out of his way.

[Brace Beamer]

You think young fellow Kassam related to outlaw Lou Cassim? Maybe Dan Rightmore? Yes.

[Narrator]

He closes by saying it won't be long before I'll be with you and Toto again for the Christmas vacation. Your nephew, Dan. P S. Here it comes, Toto.

[Brace Beamer]

Me know what Im say when Im right.

[Narrator]

P S. Listen, listen. I thought I brought plenty of money with me to last until I saw you again. Somehow I seemed to be running low. Just thought I'd mention it. I'll keep waiting to hear from you, Dan.

[Brace Beamer]

He mean him wait to get more money from Lone Ranger.

[Narrator]

Yes, Toto. I know Dan doesn't squander his money. Most likely he helps someone who is in need. He does that often. All right, I'll send him some.

[Brace Beamer]

Ah, me be glad when holiday comes.

[Narrator]

So shall I, Toto. I miss Dan very much.

[Fred Foy]

A few days later, Toto again visited the post office and returned to camp with a small, small box containing the medallion Dan had mentioned in his letter. The Lone Ranger and Toto examined it closely.

[Narrator]

There seems to be an Indian inscription carved into a tunnel.

[Brace Beamer]

It Say, great Spirit, protect Little Bear son, Comanche chief.

[Narrator]

The Indian lad Dan helped as a chieftain son. Oh, why not wear it on the chain around your neck, Toto? Then it will be safe until Dan returns.

[Brace Beamer]

That good idea. Me put on chain and medallion.

[Narrator]

You know, Toto, I've been thinking. If the boy who fought Dan is related to Luke Casson, he might keep in touch with the outlaw.

[Fred Foy]

Isn't that right?

[Narrator]

Now, Dan took the train at Meadville. We go to that vicinity and make a few inquiries. It's just a few hours ride from here. All right, we'll break camp now and head for Meadville.

[Fred Foy]

At a hideout cabin in the hills near Meadville, Luke Hassan, the outlaw leader, and his men listen to the story Lou's nephew Max told concerning his fight with Dan Reed. The gang had just come to that territory and it was Max's first chance to talk to his uncle. He finished by saying, I've thought of

[Brace Beamer]

a way you and the gang could get plenty for yourself and help me get even with that young Indian at the same time. Go ahead, Max. Tell us about it.

[Fred Foy]

Briefly, Max outlined his plan to have the gang disguise themselves as Comanches, commit several raids and robberies. The Comanches, who had signed a peace treaty would be blamed and punished. Lou not only agreed with the idea, but decided to get the help of a renegade Apache chief, Black Crow, and his band and attack the fort. While the troopers were out after the Comanches, Lou remarked, we'll go along with

[Brace Beamer]

your plan, Max, and when we're through, you'll have your revenge on that young commanche.

[Fred Foy]

The following morning, Luke Hassan's gang, disguised as Comanches and accompanied by Max and the renegade chief Black Crow, held up a stagecoach near Meadville, then moved into town and robbed the express office.

[Brace Beamer]

Some engines just dropped. The express office. You've been catfish. The Comanches have broken the treaty. If they all go on the war path, none of us will be saved. That's right. And I'll send somebody to Fort Wills to notify the commandant. I'll go, Sheriff. Good. Go as fast as you can. Tell him what happened. He'll know what to do.

[Fred Foy]

After the robbery in town, Lou ordered the gang to ride in pairs, cover their trails and head for the hideout. Max and Slick rode together. On the way to the hideout, they saw a hunting party of three young Comanches coming around a bend.

[Brace Beamer]

Slick, Three young Comanche braves. One of them looks like the Indian I had trouble with. Yeah. We can't let them see us in these Disguises. Head into the gully. Quick. Come on. Get up. Get up. Ho. Ho. Ho. Ho. Ho. I'm sure they didn't see us. This is my chance. We'll gun and remain. Now hold on, Max. Maybe we better. I won't miss a chance like this. Here they come. Use your gun too, slick. All right. One of them. I think it's the one I wanted to get. Let's make sure he's done for. Get up.

[Fred Foy]

As the two outlaws rode from the gully and started toward the fallen Indian, they heard fast hoof beats approaching beyond the bend.

[Brace Beamer]

Boy, there. Somebody coming. Better get away fast. Yeah, we're right over the ridge. Quick. Come on. Get up. Get up. On.

[Fred Foy]

A few moments later, the Lone Ranger and Toto stopped beside the fallen Indian.

[Narrator]

The man brave, he seriously wounded us. You?

[Brace Beamer]

You not one who him unconscious now?

[Narrator]

Yes. Make camp up in that grove and give him first aid. Tunnel.

[Fred Foy]

The mask man and his Indian friend bandaged the young brave's wound and made him comfortable. Leaving Toto with the unconscious Indian, the Lone Ranger went back to the place where they had found him and looked around. Soon he returned to the camp.

[Narrator]

Easy.

[Fred Foy]

Steady, big fellow.

[Brace Beamer]

What you find, Kimasabi?

[Narrator]

Two horsemen waited in the gully and ambushed the Indian. I found the tracks of two horses. Also those of two Indian ponies that led away from the spot.

[Brace Beamer]

And what we do?

[Narrator]

You stay with the wounded brave, Tono. I'll follow those tracks and try to find out who shot him. Later we'll see if Silver hear something.

[Brace Beamer]

Look.

[Narrator]

Indians moving in on our camp.

[Brace Beamer]

Take cover. Quickly. Tunnel.

[Fred Foy]

As the horde of yelling savages moved in on all sides, the situation seemed hopeless.

[Brace Beamer]

Sabi them not try hit us with bullet.

[Narrator]

That means they've been told to take us alive.

[Brace Beamer]

And if not good, then torture us.

[Narrator]

Maybe t call out, tell them we give up. Maybe we'll be able to reason with our chief. He's with him.

[Brace Beamer]

Let's go. Me take guns.

[Fred Foy]

Me Chief Big Elk. You fire on hunting party. Kill Comanche, you pay with life. The Lone Ranger and Toto, surrounded by angry Comanches and without their guns, realized the situation was serious. The Lone Ranger hurriedly whispered to Toto,

[Narrator]

we must convince her chief we didn't ambush that hunting party. Chief Big Elk, your brave isn't dead. He's over there wounded.

[Fred Foy]

You shoot at Little Bear, son of chief. You wound brave.

[Narrator]

No chief. Big Elf. We helped your brave.

[Fred Foy]

Big Elf try keep treaty with white man. You'll break treaty. You try kill Comanche. Comanche punish by fire. Take off Mask from face of tall one. So braves watch him suffer. Then tie them to trees. We'll continue our Lone Ranger adventure in just a moment.

[Brace Beamer]

All over the country in every direction. How ya, how you doing? Is a question. And here's what the hap hap Happy people have to say Wheaties and doo doo doo and okay, okay. Take champions down south. They sure enough know about Wheaties. The Southland's favorite Wheaties fan is Muzio, Known as Stan the Man. Cause when he swings his mighty bat he nearly knocks that baseball flat. Another Southland pride and joy is Bobby Lane, a Wheaties boy. Cuz when he starts to turn on steam he's sure a oneman football team. Just ask Stan Musial or Bobby Lane they know the secret of Wheaties energy. There's a whole kernel of wheat in every Wheaties flake. Wheaties breakfast of champions. Keep on eating your Wheaties and you'll be do do do an okay O.

[Fred Foy]

Now to continue. Chief Big Elk ordered the braves to seize the Lone Ranger and Tato and tie them to trees. As strong hands grasped the masked man and Tato, the two men struggled and Tahoe's shirt was torn open. Suddenly Little Bear called out.

[Brace Beamer]

Wait. Strange Indian ware charm. Little Bear give young white friend.

[Narrator]

He's our friend too. Little Bear not right.

[Brace Beamer]

No. Maybe you shoot young white friend take charm.

[Narrator]

Wait. Little Bear. He gave you something. A silver bullet.

[Brace Beamer]

Ah, yes. Silver bullet. Charm him give me.

[Narrator]

Now look in my belt. There are also silver bullets like the one Dan gave to you. I gave him that bullet charm.

[Fred Foy]

Little Bear was convinced when he saw the silver bullets carried by the Lone Ranger. He persuaded the chief to take them to the village and wait until the wounded brave could tell what happened. At the village. The Lone Ranger and Tata were taken into a wigwam and tied. An hour later, Little Bear entered.

[Brace Beamer]

Brave has spoken. He say two Indian ride toward him from gully. After shooting, they ones who try kill us. You Indian friend scare him away. You no longer prisoner. I free you.

[Narrator]

Thanks. Little Bear.

[Brace Beamer]

Here. You're gone.

[Fred Foy]

Good.

[Narrator]

The tracks I found in the gully are those of shod horses. Little Bear not of Indian ponies.

[Brace Beamer]

Me not savvy. Indian not ride pony with iron shoes.

[Narrator]

I know I don't.

[Brace Beamer]

Now go.

[Narrator]

Follow the trail. We may find the ones who are guilty.

[Brace Beamer]

Little Bear go too.

[Narrator]

Very well. Take us to our horses.

[Fred Foy]

Later, the three men reached the gully and found the tracks left by Max and Slick. The tracks led to the opposite side of town and back into the foot hills. Finally, the Lone Ranger, Toto and Little Bear approached the rim of a canyon. They stopped and dismounted among the trees.

[Narrator]

All right. We'll move cautiously to the rim of the canyon and try to find out where those horsemen went. Come on.

[Fred Foy]

They crawled through the brush at the rim of the canyon and looked down.

[Narrator]

Look.

[Brace Beamer]

Kimasari Indian village.

[Narrator]

Wait. I'll use my field glasses. The patches. Here you look.

[Brace Beamer]

Kimasabe. There's men in front of Chief's wigwam. Take off war bonnets. Put on sombreros. Them white men.

[Narrator]

You look a Little Bear.

[Brace Beamer]

Ah, ya. Tell them jump close. Little Bear.

[Narrator]

I just seen closer. Don't be afraid of the glasses.

[Brace Beamer]

Oh, me. Me not afraid. Glass is good magic for me. Sea Chief, him bad Indian. Him Apache renegade. Black Crow. Him talk with braves in sign language.

[Narrator]

You and Toto try to figure out what he says.

[Fred Foy]

For a few moments, Toto and Little Bear took turns watching. Toto interpreted what they found out.

[Brace Beamer]

Kimasabi?

[Narrator]

Yes.

[Brace Beamer]

Him tell braves white brothers dressed as Comanche rob stage. Rob express office. And him say this get Comanche in trouble.

[Narrator]

What else?

[Brace Beamer]

I'll im Tell braves man from town go for troopers at fort. Him say troopers sure to leave fort punish Comanche. Oh, that fad. And him say Apache take back trails to fort. Attack while trooper's away.

[Narrator]

So that's it, Little Bear. We ride to your village to tell Chief Big Elk. You convince him the best thing to do will be to take all of his braves and go with us to meet the troopers.

[Brace Beamer]

Ah, that good. Patrick gets in the way. All right.

[Narrator]

We'll have to hurry. Come on.

[Fred Foy]

Meantime, the troopers left the fort after receiving word of what had happened. Led by Major Downs, they rode the main trail toward Meatville.

[Brace Beamer]

I had hoped that we could trust Chief Big Elk. I hope you brought enough troopers. I brought almost all I had at the four. Holy mackerel. Look. Coming around the bend. The Comanches. Those in front are holding a white cloth on a pole. The flag of truce. It may be a trick. Troopers. Ho. Ho. Ho. Ho. Ho. Ho. Ho. The Indians have stopped too. Now three of them are riding toward us. Look. One of them's not an Indian. And he's massed. I don't understand this. We'll be ready for them if it's a trick.

[Narrator]

Good afternoon, Major. We came to meet you.

[Brace Beamer]

So I see. Carry a flag of truce. I'll give you three minutes to say what you have to say. What's more, I don't understand that mask. Tim Lone Ranger. Maybe you hear a masked man who rides white Stallion the Lone Ranger. By Timiny. I've heard of him plenty. You're really the Lone Ranger?

[Narrator]

That's right.

[Brace Beamer]

Well, I'm glad to meet you, sir. Why, are you a chief? Big Elk. We had word that some of his braves would run em. Wait, please.

[Narrator]

Let me explain.

[Fred Foy]

Quickly and briefly. The Lone Ranger told what they had found out about the group of men and the Apaches in the canyon. He finished by saying Chief Big Elk

[Narrator]

agreed to bring his braves to help prevent the attack on the fort. Major, no doubt the Apaches are already on their way by another route.

[Brace Beamer]

We'll be glad to have the Comanches help. We'll return to the port at the double. Troopers.

[Fred Foy]

Behind a ridge overlooking the fort, Black Crow and Lucas made last preparations for the attack.

[Brace Beamer]

It's time to go, Black Crow. We'll ride over the ridge yelling and shooting to draw their fire. Then have your braves gradually move closer. They'll cover for others to follow with a log to ram open the gates. Now we start attack.

[Fred Foy]

A few men stationed at the fort fought back gallantly. As the Apaches moved in. Max and the other members of the gang rode close to Lucas and were careful to stay out of gun range. The inadequate defense of the fort was immediately evident and soon protected by constant gunfire from the attacking horde, several braves carrying a large log moved to the heavy gates to ram them open. Lou and his men rode close so as to be among the first to enter.

[Brace Beamer]

In a few minutes, they'll have the gates open. Let some of the Indians go in first to clear the way. Then we'll go in to get the loot. Look, Hooper's coming from the right. Yeah, and Indians moving in from the left and behind us. We're trapped.

[Fred Foy]

The Major and the Lone Ranger had planned their counterattack well. The troopers and the Comanches moved in at a fast pace, firing as they rode. For a short time the battle raged. But the Apaches, taken by surprise and far outnumbered, were soon subdued. And those who were not killed or wounded were rounded up and disarmed, including the outlaw gang, the Lone Ranger, with a major chief. Big Elk, Little Bear and Toto pulled to a halt before Black Crow, who was huddled with the outlaws.

[Narrator]

They're the men who planned this attack with Black Crow, Major. I recognize one of them. Lou Casson, the outlaw leader.

[Brace Beamer]

I'm not one of the gang. My uncle forced me to come along. Shut up. You wanted Little Coyote. You gave us the idea to pose as Indians, didn't you? Yeah, and he's the one who insisted we ambush The Comanche hunting party. Him fellow fight young white friend Dan and Meat Bill. While back Dan give him plenty good beat. Oh, shut up. If I could meet that young maverick again.

[Narrator]

Too bad you'll not be around for such a meeting. I'd like to watch it. You spend a great deal of time behind bars for what you've done.

[Fred Foy]

You'll give them to Comanche for Indian punishment.

[Narrator]

No cheap Big Elk. The law will take care of him.

[Brace Beamer]

We'll see to it that all of them get what's coming to them. We'll hold them at the fort until proper disposition is made of their cases. The Apaches will be sent to a reservation.

[Narrator]

Good enough. They're in your hands now, Major.

[Brace Beamer]

Thanks to you, sir.

[Narrator]

Huddle and I were glad to help. Oh, Little Bear, when Dan comes back at Christmas time, I'm sure he'll come to see you.

[Brace Beamer]

May be happy see young white friend again. Him plenty brave, plenty strong.

[Narrator]

Dan will be pleased to hear what you've said about him. Little Bear, I'm sure you and your father will live in peace from now on with your tribe.

[Fred Foy]

That's right. We make treaty, we keep treaty.

[Brace Beamer]

You prove to be good allies today, Chief Big Elk. The great white father in Washington will hear of your help and be very pleased.

[Fred Foy]

That good.

[Narrator]

Hullo. We'll leave now. Adios, everybody.

[Brace Beamer]

Goodbye. There goes a man who's a great friend to Indians and white men alike. You know, today will always stand out in my memory as the day I met the Lone Ranger.
