- 1:00Speaker 4: At a a aa.
- 1:42Speaker 2: AA, with his faithful Indian companion Tuntle, the masked rider
- 2:04Speaker 2: of the Planes, led the fight for law and order
- 2:07Speaker 2: in the early Western United States. The stories of his
- 2:10Speaker 2: strength and courage, his daring and resourcefulness, have come down
- 2:13Speaker 2: to us through the generations. And nowhere in the pages
- 2:15Speaker 2: of history can one find a greater champion of justice
- 2:19Speaker 2: return with us. Not of those thrilling days of yesteryear.

- 2:23Speaker 2: the great horse Silver. The lone Ranger rides again.
- 2:27Speaker 5: Long Silver, resturentualas on the twin ahead.
- 2:41Speaker 2: The cell door clang shut, and the prisoner walked into
- 2:44Speaker 2: the larger room, the sheriff's office. He saw the grim
- 2:46Speaker 2: placed sheriff sitting at his desk. He saw the owner
- 2:49Speaker 2: of the Border City Cafe, Texas Jack, in a nearby chair.
- 2:53Speaker 6: He hesitated, sat down.
- 2:57Speaker 7: Texas Jack's best friend was murdered by the trench. You'll pay,
- 3:01Speaker 7: handsome to see the last of the gang wiped out.
- 3:04Speaker 6: Now, Dirk, you talk well, you go. I had a
- 3:08Speaker 6: letter from Transula. What that's how he send it. That's
- 3:11Speaker 6: all I knew about him. I was told what to
- 3:14Speaker 6: do and how to do it. I found out later
- 3:16Speaker 6: a lot of other men got letters of the same sort.
- 3:19Speaker 6: They they were.
- 3:21Speaker 7: All all wanted further by the law or something.
- 3:25Speaker 6: It was to the rub the folks in Mexico, for example. Well, anyhow,
- 3:28Speaker 6: my part was to make friends with Chief Thundercloud. There
- 3:31Speaker 6: was instructions how to do it.
- 3:33Speaker 8: So you made friends with him and stole that magic
- 3:35Speaker 8: bell he is and used it to win the leadership
- 3:37Speaker 8: of the Apache drive.
- 3:37Speaker 6: Yeah, they do whatever it said. They thought the belt
- 3:41Speaker 6: they glued in the dark was medicine of a mighty
- 3:43Speaker 6: powerful nature. Well, I got all my orders from the Tarantula,
- 3:47Speaker 6: as well as everything else I needed. I let the
- 3:50Speaker 6: Apaches and a lot of raids and do what I
- 3:51Speaker 6: was told to do with old loot.
- 3:52Speaker 5: What did you do with the loot? Oh?
- 3:54Speaker 6: Let the Redskins keep the witless junk and put the
- 3:56Speaker 6: cash in a cave where the headquarters is supposed to be.
- 3:59Speaker 6: And I met a couple of the other members of
- 4:01Speaker 6: the gang there, but they was always masked like I was.
- 4:04Speaker 6: We was ordered not to swamp names.
- 4:06Speaker 5: Did you ever meet the tragula himself in that cave?
- 4:09Speaker 6: I don't know why.
- 4:10Speaker 5: You don't know.
- 4:11Speaker 6: No, you might oppose a member of the gang like
- 4:14Speaker 6: I was to make sure I follow door.
- 4:15Speaker 8: It is, Why did you take the loot to this
- 4:16Speaker 8: boss instead of keeping it?
- 4:17Speaker 6: Well, no one knew the tarantula he had away? I
- 4:21Speaker 6: know them what went on? A couple of men tried
- 4:24Speaker 6: holding out on 'em. Knives they got in their backs
- 4:26Speaker 6: were just like those in your desk, Shief. The idea
- 4:30Speaker 6: was it would do as we were told for one year.
- 4:33Speaker 6: Some of the members would do lots better than the others,
- 4:35Speaker 6: but the agreement was that it would split even all
- 4:37Speaker 6: the way around. But the year was up, and it's
- 4:40Speaker 6: all I know about the gang.
- 4:42Speaker 7: They don't know any other members of it.
- 4:44Speaker 8: Is that loot still in the cave, and I don't
- 4:46Speaker 8: know where's the cave at.
- 4:48Speaker 6: The Bryant Gap, said a vulture mountain near the Limestone rug.
- 4:51Speaker 6: Do you know the place, Texas?
- 4:52Speaker 5: Yep, the loot is there, Dirk.
- 4:54Speaker 8: Maybe the jury will show mercy, but don't cut on
- 4:57Speaker 8: the tragule to get you out of jail.
- 4:58Speaker 6: I'm met. We were made to understand. If we get captured,
- 5:02Speaker 6: we have to face the music.
- 5:03Speaker 7: Now you can talk about the lone ranger who he.
- 5:07Speaker 6: Knew all about me. He tricked me and took that
- 5:10Speaker 6: blond belt away from me. He got it.
- 5:13Speaker 8: Now lock him up, Cheff. We'll go have a look
- 5:15Speaker 8: in this cave. But if he's lied by thunder, you'll
- 5:18Speaker 8: have tool the truth.

- 9:39Speaker 7: a jury.
- 9:40Speaker 13: Now get going. I'm in no mood to talk.
- 9:50Speaker 2: The Lone Range from Tonto came to a halt in
- 9:52Speaker 2: a small camp. They built up enough of a fire
- 9:55Speaker 2: to illuminate the contents of the box and lifted the lid.
- 10:00Speaker 5: HALLO, there's no money here, ah And see Dirk told

- 10:23Speaker 2: The buried boys. A Lone Ranger knew where sand Plats was.
- 10:34Speaker 2: There was a level stretch of shore on the Rio
- 10:36Speaker 2: Grand where the misnamed river was so shallow that a
- 10:38Speaker 2: man could wade across, and somebody that it seemed almost
- 10:41Speaker 2: like quicksand Lem Frisbe and his wife had recently moved
- 10:45Speaker 2: into an old shack on the Texas side and struggled
- 10:48Speaker 2: bravely to clean and repair the place to serve them
- 10:50Speaker 2: as a shelter. Late in the afternoon the day after
- 10:53Speaker 2: the Lone Ranger found the note.
- 10:54Speaker 14: H Martha, you're easn't much of a place to call
- 10:57Speaker 14: Home's the.

- 11:19Speaker 16: brother in the east. Then you'll have a grubstake again.
- 11:22Speaker 9: I was a fool that would come here.
- 11:24Speaker 14: It was a bigger fool to have everything we own
- 11:27Speaker 14: in the town where apaches could clean us out and
- 11:29Speaker 14: burn our house.
- 11:30Speaker 10: Lamb.

- 12:23Speaker 14: I'm a little handy with tools. Fixen, shucks, frisbee. You
- 12:26Speaker 14: don't need to do no fixing.
- 12:28Speaker 17: The fact is, I don't suppose the real owner of
- 12:30Speaker 17: the place is anywhere around. The shack hasn't had any
- 12:34Speaker 17: live people in it for well as long as.

- 12:56Speaker 17: I hate to spoil things for you, ma'am, but well,
- 12:59Speaker 17: it's only right that I should tell you that Carter
- 13:01Speaker 17: said the same thing. Hey, he's a cow hand, tough Hambrey.
- 13:06Speaker 17: He'd bet ten dollars that he'd spend the night here.
- 13:09Speaker 5: Is it right? Good?
- 13:10Speaker 9: Did he win?
- 13:11Speaker 5: Well? He won?
- 13:12Speaker 17: But he he never collected the ten dollars was given
- 13:16Speaker 17: to his widow.
- 13:17Speaker 1: Mm what happened?
- 13:19Speaker 5: Hell, missus Frisbee?
- 13:20Speaker 17: There wasn't a mark on him, not a mark of
- 13:22Speaker 17: any sort to show what killed him, oh as near
- 13:24Speaker 17: as anyone could figure out. And judging from the look
- 13:27Speaker 17: on his face, he was, he was just downright scared today.
- 13:31Speaker 1: Nonsense. I won't take stocking stories night, ma'am.
- 13:33Speaker 9: It ain't for me to tell you you got to
- 13:35Speaker 9: get out.
- 13:35Speaker 5: It's up to you.
- 13:36Speaker 14: Oh put a bar across that, all that won't help
- 13:38Speaker 14: me keep out any critics that come around.
- 13:41Speaker 17: Things that move about at night in this house don't
- 13:43Speaker 17: come from outside. They're here all the time. They're in
- 13:46Speaker 17: the walls, beneath the floor, they're in the rafters waiting
- 13:50Speaker 17: waiting for night when they can come out. And men
- 13:53Speaker 17: passing half a mile away from here at night and
- 13:55Speaker 17: see the lights and hear the the noises noises.
- 14:00Speaker 9: I've got to get moved soon, be real dark.
- 14:03Speaker 17: And I wouldn't be here after dark for a million
- 14:05Speaker 17: dollars not for ten million.
- 14:07Speaker 13: Well, good night to you. I'll stop by in the morning, Martha.
- 14:16Speaker 1: What do you think, Oh, stop nonsense. He just wants
- 14:19Speaker 1: us out to hear that's all hell.
- 14:20Speaker 9: I like that lamp. Left it over here by the
- 14:23Speaker 9: wain and.
- 14:23Speaker 16: Stopp being afraid the things that don't exist, just to
- 14:26Speaker 16: try and figure out why that man was anxious to
- 14:28Speaker 16: scare us away.
- 14:30Speaker 9: What's the matter? Look, this man spoke true. Look over there.
- 14:46Speaker 2: The curtain falls on the first act of our Lone
- 14:48Speaker 2: Ranger story. Before the next exciting scenes, please permit us
- 14:51Speaker 2: to pause for just a few moments now to continue
- 15:56Speaker 2: our story. The Lone Ranger has found a note in
- 15:59Speaker 2: the box that were supposed to contain a stolen cash.
- 16:02Speaker 2: Note was not signed, but the message was intended to
- 16:05Speaker 2: inform one of the Tarantula gang that a certain Hulse
- 16:08Speaker 2: and sand flats had to be haunted in order to
- 16:11Speaker 2: drive the occupants away. The Lone Ranger in Toto knew
- 16:14Speaker 2: where the house was. In a short time after the
- 16:16Speaker 2: masked Man's discovery, they pulled up Silver and Scout in
- 16:19Speaker 2: the woods a short distance from the house. It was
- 16:21Speaker 2: easy to believe that the log cabin might be inhabited
- 16:24Speaker 2: by ghosts, covered with vines and setting in a tangle
- 16:27Speaker 2: of heavy underbrush. The house itself looked like a living thing.
- 16:31Speaker 2: The windows were broken and the shutters their hinges rusted away,
- 16:34Speaker 2: hung at rakish angles to form a hiding place for
- 16:37Speaker 2: bats and giant malls. This was the picture that greeted
- 16:40Speaker 2: the lone Ranger and Tonto. Just as total darkness descended,
- 16:44Speaker 2: the two men dismounted.
- 16:45Speaker 5: Steady, big fellow. Hat's a house hutto out there near
- 16:50Speaker 5: the edge of the river, Ah, mays sin. There's smoke
- 16:53Speaker 5: coming from the chimney, but no light in the house.
- 16:57Speaker 5: They won't leave the cover of these trees for a minute.
- 16:59Speaker 5: Let's watch their horse would saddle. Yes, I see it.
- 17:04Speaker 5: Man is meling. I wonder who that was? You don't know?
- 17:09Speaker 10: Now we going to house.
- 17:10Speaker 5: Huh, that's the house we're looking for, al right, can't
- 17:13Speaker 5: be any question about it.
- 17:15Speaker 10: H Silver anxious to get to water him. Go ahead, Silver,
- 17:19Speaker 10: I hear that shot come from house.
- 17:21Speaker 5: Yes, someone smashed the window to shoot a silver.
- 17:23Speaker 10: Uh.
- 17:24Speaker 5: Other someone's there ahead of us, whoever it is, they're
- 17:27Speaker 5: not going to let us get close. Well, they know
- 17:29Speaker 5: about it and what we do. We'll keep back here
- 17:31Speaker 5: among the trees for a while.
- 17:40Speaker 2: The evening dragged on, with Lamb growing increasingly tense as
- 17:43Speaker 2: he sat with his rifle across his knees. A small
- 17:46Speaker 2: lamp burned low and seemed to make the darkness and
- 17:49Speaker 2: dinginess of the room more obvious. The Frisbees were not
- 17:52Speaker 2: normally superstitious people, but the man who called himself Summer
- 17:56Speaker 2: had told him a weird tale. A cow hand named Carter.
- 17:59Speaker 9: And mysteriously killed in the house. And there were no
- 18:01Speaker 9: marks of violence.
- 18:03Speaker 2: And then there were the strange lights and the eering noises.
- 18:05Speaker 6: That Somemmers had told them about.
- 18:07Speaker 2: They began to believe that perhaps the house was truly haunted. Finally,
- 18:11Speaker 2: Martha Frisbee broke the silence.
- 18:13Speaker 9: I don't like it, Limb, h I hadn't lighted from
- 18:16Speaker 9: the start. That raded Martha. I'd sooner spend the night
- 18:19Speaker 9: on the bank of the river.
- 18:20Speaker 1: What was that shadowy white thing you fired at?
- 18:23Speaker 9: A ghost? I take it them.
- 18:25Speaker 1: I never believed in such things.
- 18:26Speaker 9: It must have been a fired square at it, and
- 18:29Speaker 9: it disappeared.

- 21:07Speaker 16: Don't check what the yelling we heard you do, mister

- 21:15Speaker 5: that you had to be driven away from this house.

- 21:39Speaker 5: They have a load on mules all ready to bring here.
- 21:42Speaker 5: They're waiting for the signal that the coast is clear
- 21:45Speaker 5: my sakes.
- 21:45Speaker 1: So that's what this note means.
- 21:47Speaker 5: Summers, you're going to give that signal, Oh I am?

- 22:20Speaker 5: used summers. If you wouldn't dare, Oh maybe not here, Frisbee,
- 22:25Speaker 5: you take the crossbow. There are no smugglers. This crook
- 22:28Speaker 5: won't mind signaling with his landing. There are smugglers waiting
- 22:31Speaker 5: for this signal. You know what I got to shoot
- 22:33Speaker 5: the Let me have the weapon. How did it work
- 22:36Speaker 5: and look the same as a rifle? Just aim and
- 22:38Speaker 5: pull the trigger. Now, what about it?
- 22:41Speaker 9: Summer, that old man's nervous. Take that thing away from.
- 22:44Speaker 5: Him in summers. Maybe you can use this lamp. Try
- 22:48Speaker 5: do what he says.
- 22:49Speaker 9: Don't go on your head. Drug smuggling, Hay, I will,
- 22:52Speaker 9: I will, But put that weapon down. Well that's worse
- 22:54Speaker 9: than a rifle.
- 22:54Speaker 5: The longer you delay, the longer Frisbee will stand there trembling.
- 22:57Speaker 13: Signal.
- 22:58Speaker 5: I'll signal now, haven't put that. You lower the crossbow
- 23:01Speaker 5: when we hear the smugglers coming.

- 23:18Speaker 5: Warning you someone coming over the water smugglers. Put that
- 23:22Speaker 5: man in the corner, Martha.

- 24:20Speaker 5: My bullet. J Just hitch your gun, get back on
- 24:22Speaker 5: your horses. We will start for town as soon as
- 24:24Speaker 5: we got Summers on his horse.
- 24:26Speaker 9: What are you figuring the town?
- 24:27Speaker 5: The drugs and those saddle bags and on those mules
- 24:29Speaker 5: will tell enough. I'm on Frisbee.
- 24:31Speaker 9: We can witness Horner went on me and bother scene.
- 24:33Speaker 9: You hurt it all.
- 24:34Speaker 5: What you can tell Frisbee, There'll be a perfect case
- 24:37Speaker 5: against all three of them. Let's get going.
- 24:47Speaker 2: The two smugglers and their henchmen Summers, were tightly bound
- 24:51Speaker 2: and placed on their horses for the long ride through
- 24:53Speaker 2: the woods from the banks of the Rio Grande to
- 24:55Speaker 2: the town of Border City in southern Texas. Frisbee and
- 24:58Speaker 2: his wife Martha were within the park, and the old
- 25:01Speaker 2: couple still were not convinced that the house might not
- 25:03Speaker 2: be haunted, although they were to appear his witnesses against
- 25:06Speaker 2: the ghost himself the following day. Were the prisoners safely
- 25:09Speaker 2: locked in the Border City jail, an long ranger talked
- 25:12Speaker 2: with the sheriff in his office.
- 25:13Speaker 5: Here's a note that was in the box, Sheriff.
- 25:15Speaker 13: But hang it on, mister Steele, Sheriff, Let the lone
- 25:17Speaker 13: ranger finish.
- 25:18Speaker 5: Go on. The no tells about the drug smuggling. The
- 25:21Speaker 5: knife ties in with the Tarantula gang. I both were
- 25:24Speaker 5: in the box, but the cash had been taken. Maybe
- 25:27Speaker 5: Summers will tell what he did with the money.
- 25:29Speaker 13: Oh, I didn't touch it.
- 25:30Speaker 9: You're lying.
- 25:30Speaker 5: You'll sweat the truth from him in jail. The next
- 25:32Speaker 5: evidence is represented by the testimony of lem and Martha Frisbee.
- 25:36Speaker 5: A connic can pay for their room and meals here
- 25:38Speaker 5: in town until the trial is over.
- 25:39Speaker 8: I'll pay it, and if they tell enough to convict
- 25:41Speaker 8: those three, I'll pay him a reward. My best friend
- 25:44Speaker 8: was murdered by one of the tarantulas.
- 25:46Speaker 13: All right, all right, I admit that I was helping
- 25:48Speaker 13: these smuggers.
- 25:48Speaker 5: I'll admit that much. But you can't pin a murder
- 25:50Speaker 5: on me. We'll get into that later. Next we have
- 25:52Speaker 5: these two who came when Summers signaled, yep, we see them.
- 25:56Speaker 5: I mused it. Just as they crossed the border. Nothing's
- 25:58Speaker 5: been touched. You find the smuggled drugs on them.
- 26:01Speaker 9: Summers will get there for leading us into the song
- 26:03Speaker 9: I couldn't. I was supposed to have cast to pay us.
- 26:05Speaker 9: You didn't have. That proves he never intended to pay us.
- 26:08Speaker 8: Summer's probably meant to murder you both as soon as
- 26:10Speaker 8: he had the smuggled drugs.
- 26:12Speaker 7: Stop at Texas. We've got to put these three in
- 26:14Speaker 7: the same cell with Dirk. We don't want to meet
- 26:16Speaker 7: each other.
- 26:17Speaker 5: Is the evidence complete, Sheriff? It sure is, And there's
- 26:19Speaker 5: only one thing more.
- 26:21Speaker 9: Yes, dog on it all.
- 26:23Speaker 7: You tricked me and the grabbing an armful of dog
- 26:24Speaker 7: on hard rock inside that cave.
- 26:26Speaker 9: I thought my shoulder was busted.
- 26:28Speaker 5: I'm sorry, Sheriff. Oh how about that headband?
- 26:32Speaker 9: Here? It is my desk.
- 26:34Speaker 5: Take it.
- 26:37Speaker 6: Well, I reckon.
- 26:38Speaker 7: You've done about enough for me to call things like
- 26:41Speaker 7: a bruise shoulder nothing.
- 26:42Speaker 5: At all, And I've certainly done a great thing for me.
- 26:44Speaker 5: I offered a reward. The Taranngela gang isn't licked yet, Texas.
- 26:48Speaker 5: You've gotta let them. Not the leader. He's the one
- 26:51Speaker 5: I'm after. If you take a reward, let him. Frisbee
- 26:54Speaker 5: needs a grubstake, Well, he'll get it in a good one.
- 26:56Speaker 5: I thought I was waiting outside the Sheriff. We want
- 26:59Speaker 5: to return this head and the chief Sunday Cloud. You
- 27:02Speaker 5: don't mind if I leave?
- 27:03Speaker 6: No, I hate to see you leave, but I can't
- 27:06Speaker 6: keep you.
- 27:07Speaker 5: I will meet again, Martha.
- 27:10Speaker 14: Did you ever see the light of that manne? Never
- 27:13Speaker 14: wait here before you lock Summers up. Let me tell
- 27:16Speaker 14: him one thing, Summers you listen to me. You didn't
- 27:20Speaker 14: scare us one bit. We never believed those lies about ghosts,
- 27:24Speaker 14: did we.
