  Speaker 8: But that's right up.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: A few minutes later, I'm not far from the Stone prison.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: A masked man and his Indian friend were resting their
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: horses and a small grove of trees.
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: That sounded like, go ah, maybe men hunt.
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: There's no hunting in that direction. Might be a somebody

  Speaker 5: headed way? What's stay out?
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: Of sight.
• 6:01
  Speaker 8: Ah, who I think we've lost in peace?
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: Sure we have.
• 6:10
  Speaker 8: Those guards can't hit anything they can't reach with a whip.
• 6:12
  Speaker 6: Damn.
• 6:12
  Speaker 10: This is why I'll turn north where too, little town
• 6:15
  Speaker 10: called Classen.
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: Well, I go back there.
• 6:18
  Speaker 7: It's the nearest thing I've got to home.
• 6:20
  Speaker 12: No, lou, don't be Locore. The best share of that
• 6:22
  Speaker 12: town ever had. What do they do for you?
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: Not much?
• 6:25
  Speaker 12: They rail rod a gym of the pen on a
• 6:27
  Speaker 12: fake charge of care rustling. Is that your idea?
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: Not much?
• 6:30
  Speaker 7: That's why I'm going back.
• 6:32
  Speaker 8: I gotta prove I was framed.
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: Don't forget.
• 6:34
  Speaker 12: You're not a free citizen now, Son, you an escape convict.
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: Let's head out west and start clean.
• 6:40
  Speaker 7: Now, Pete, I'm going back to class.
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: Are you're crazy?
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: Maybe?
• 6:45
  Speaker 7: Well then I guess this is where we always say.
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: So long?
• 6:50
  Speaker 13: How do you figure you're going out west? Aren't you listen?
• 6:53
  Speaker 13: You sidewinder? I can't be put off that easy. You're
• 6:56
  Speaker 13: local enough to go back to Classing. Well, I'm loco too, Thanks?
• 7:00
  Speaker 13: What a way waiting for let's high tailor get?
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: I don't those men have just broken out of prison.
• 7:08
  Speaker 6: You think they speak truth? I don't know these men
• 7:12
  Speaker 6: not go away.
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: That's what puzzles me. I could leave the country and
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: be free. Yet one of them insist upon going back
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: to the town where he was convicted of a crime.
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: Me not savvy, neither do I.
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: Anyone who gamble freedom against prison to prove he is
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: right may need help. Here's couch.
• 7:34
  Speaker 6: Boy, Where we go now?
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: The same trailer on class.
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: The little town of class And nestled snugly at the
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: north end of Blue River Valley. In many respects it
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: was similar to other towns of the Range Country. The
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: single exception was a large wooden building on one side
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: of Main Street. This was the courthouse, the seat of
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: justice in Classmen County. It contained the room in which,
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: only a year ago, a jury of angry ranchers that
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: demanded the Sheriff Russell forfeit his badge, Attorney Dan Cummings,
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: had defended Russell at that time. And now, although it
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: was well past midnight, he nervously paced the floor of
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: his small office.
• 8:19
  Speaker 7: Should have heard something by this time. Who is it,
• 8:23
  Speaker 7: John Carter? Just a minute.
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: I was just heading for home when I got your message.
• 8:35
  Speaker 8: What is JU want coming?
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: Well?
• 8:36
  Speaker 7: Commend John, commend, Have much time.
• 8:39
  Speaker 14: Dan that's going to meet me delivery stable. She's driving
• 8:42
  Speaker 14: in from the ranch.
• 8:43
  Speaker 15: But I have to say, won't take long. I'm glad
• 8:46
  Speaker 15: you mentioned this. I'm thinking about her.
• 8:48
  Speaker 14: I guess you've been thinking about my daughter for several years. Dan,
• 8:52
  Speaker 14: Is that what you want to say?
• 8:53
  Speaker 15: She's still in love with Lou Russell, isn't She won't
• 8:56
  Speaker 15: consider me as long as.
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: He's in jail. It might be that way.
• 9:00
  Speaker 7: Lou's getting out of jail. It's probably on his way here.
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: Now what Lou Russell was sent us to five years?
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: I arranged the jail break to be here to night.
• 9:08
  Speaker 8: What's the idea.
• 9:10
  Speaker 15: I'm Lo's friend and we're both in love with Ethel.
• 9:13
  Speaker 15: My only interest is her happiness. If she wants Lou,
• 9:17
  Speaker 15: I'm given to her.
• 9:17
  Speaker 14: Well, I'll be darned. I've heard of things like this,
• 9:20
  Speaker 14: but I never saw it happen before.
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: You'll tell Ethel? Sure? Sure? I will. Er.
• 9:26
  Speaker 14: By the way, Dan, there's something i'd like to ask you. Yes,
• 9:29
  Speaker 14: this Murdoch fellow who holds a mortgage on my ranch.
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: I want to talk to him. Murdoch, he's very seldom
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: in town. You're his lawyer, aren't you?
• 9:38
  Speaker 7: Why do you want to see him curiosity.
• 9:40
  Speaker 14: For one thing, here's a man who holds a mortgage
• 9:43
  Speaker 14: on most every ranch in the valley, and yet nobody
• 9:46
  Speaker 14: but you has ever seen him.
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: Mister Murdoch doesn't like people. I handle all his business.
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: I hear. He's kind of a queer critter.
• 9:53
  Speaker 7: Where's a big black beard and dark glasses.
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: That's right.
• 9:56
  Speaker 14: Another thing, I've got to have an extension on that
• 9:59
  Speaker 14: mortgage at cattle Rushland last year put me way behind.
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: I'll talk to mister Murdack. Sure would appreciate it.
• 10:05
  Speaker 7: I'll talk to Murdock, and you talked to Ethel.
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: Good night, now, good night, Carter. This is classroom Tello,
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: waiting here with the courthouse until we see what those
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: two men do.
• 10:32
  Speaker 6: And it'stop by Longman's place.
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: I think it's a lawyer's office.
• 10:36
  Speaker 6: We follow them.
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: Oh, as long as the street's dark, it's best to
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: wait here. We'll see what happened.
• 10:52
  Speaker 7: Who is it?
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: Oh?
• 10:57
  Speaker 7: You amazing, I'm glad to see you.
• 11:00
  Speaker 8: Do we need it? All right?
• 11:01
  Speaker 7: This is Pete Dan.
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: I had to know you.
• 11:03
  Speaker 15: Pete are do you have any trouble with the guns
• 11:05
  Speaker 15: planted in the warden's office?
• 11:06
  Speaker 7: Everything lined up just like we planned it.
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: The guards. Did you have to know?
• 11:10
  Speaker 7: No, we didn't kill anybody.
• 11:12
  Speaker 15: I'm glad of that. But it doesn't over yet to loose.
• 11:14
  Speaker 15: They'll be after you.
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: I know it.
• 11:16
  Speaker 10: That's why I have to work fast. Work proved that
• 11:18
  Speaker 10: I was framed into that stretch. Isn't that why I
• 11:21
  Speaker 10: busted out of jail? Yes, of course, But it'll take time.
• 11:24
  Speaker 6: No, I won't.
• 11:25
  Speaker 10: The first person I want to see is an ombre
• 11:27
  Speaker 10: who showed up here just after our lift.
• 11:29
  Speaker 6: Who's that here?
• 11:30
  Speaker 10: Where's a black beard? Dark glasses and goes by the
• 11:32
  Speaker 10: name of Murdoch. Murdoch who told you about him?
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: I did?
• 11:36
  Speaker 12: Lord didn't get around of picking me up. About a
• 11:38
  Speaker 12: month after they framed Lou. I saw this Murdoch Ombrey
• 11:42
  Speaker 12: a couple of times.
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: Not up close.
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: Who is he? Dan?
• 11:45
  Speaker 15: Murdoch's just a man who came in here from the
• 11:47
  Speaker 15: east and bought up some spread.
• 11:49
  Speaker 12: Yeah, bought them up after the ranchers went broke on
• 11:51
  Speaker 12: account of the rustle, and they blamed on Lou.
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: There's no law against buying property.
• 11:54
  Speaker 12: Ain't it kind of funny? This Murdoch got so many bargains.
• 11:57
  Speaker 15: He says, he's a shrewd businessman. I handled some of
• 11:59
  Speaker 15: the deals for him.
• 12:00
  Speaker 7: Then you know him, yes, fairly well, But I don't
• 12:03
  Speaker 7: think he'll be.
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: Able to help you very much.
• 12:04
  Speaker 7: I want to talk to him anyway. Where can I
• 12:06
  Speaker 7: find him?
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: Hello?
• 12:07
  Speaker 15: Why don't you and Pete forget all this and head
• 12:09
  Speaker 15: out west somewhere you can start clean.
• 12:12
  Speaker 10: That isn't the reason I busted out of jail. Then
• 12:15
  Speaker 10: I respect the law on what it means. I'm going
• 12:17
  Speaker 10: right back to that jail just as soon as he
• 12:19
  Speaker 10: clear up this mess.
• 12:20
  Speaker 15: Ethel knows about your break. I told her father earlier
• 12:23
  Speaker 15: this evening.
• 12:24
  Speaker 6: I'm grateful for.
• 12:25
  Speaker 7: Everything you've done. Then, right now, I want to.
• 12:27
  Speaker 8: Find this Murdoch.
• 12:28
  Speaker 6: Where is he?
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: He may not be in town. Then we'll tell him.
• 12:31
  Speaker 15: Come on, Pete, Oh wait wait, I'll try to find him.
• 12:34
  Speaker 15: Maybe at the hotel, at the bar.
• 12:36
  Speaker 7: It wouldn't be good for you to show yourself in
• 12:38
  Speaker 7: either of those places. I'll chance it.
• 12:40
  Speaker 10: I'm sure if I find him, I'll find out who
• 12:42
  Speaker 10: is behind my frame of all.
• 12:44
  Speaker 15: Right, Lou, if you're bound to talk to Murdoch, I'll
• 12:47
  Speaker 15: bring him here to the office.
• 12:48
  Speaker 10: Good, but hurry it up then, like as not there's
• 12:50
  Speaker 10: a posse on my trail, right this man?
• 12:51
  Speaker 11: Yes, I'll be right back, Say, Lou, are you real
• 12:58
  Speaker 11: sure this fellow Cummings?
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: What do you mean?
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: Didn't he say handle some deals for Murdoch?
• 13:03
  Speaker 10: You're crazy? Dan Cummings is the best friend I've got.
• 13:06
  Speaker 10: Maybe we wouldn't be here now if it wasn't for Dani.
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: Don't good, Rile. I was just thinking, that's all.
• 13:20
  Speaker 16: I can hardly believe his bother. Why would Dan comingtop
• 13:23
  Speaker 16: Lou Russell the breakout of.
• 13:25
  Speaker 7: JA because he's in love with you?
• 13:26
  Speaker 8: That doesn't make sense.
• 13:28
  Speaker 16: I'm gonna stop at Danzelfice right now.
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: Better leave well enough alone?
• 13:35
  Speaker 8: Who's really here?

  Speaker 16: I'm going to see.
• 13:36
  Speaker 14: Wait too minute, see that man across the street. Yes,

  Speaker 5: To talk to him. All right, you do that?
• 13:43
  Speaker 16: Why are going to Danzel Murdoch?

  Speaker 8: I want to see him too. Is that you murder? Listening?
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: Watch out, Lou.
• 14:04
  Speaker 14: He's got a gun, so am I I can't hold it.
• 14:11
  Speaker 6: I'm for on your left.
• 14:12
  Speaker 8: We're gout. There's so many Pete and the horses come
• 14:19
  Speaker 8: on this way. You keep going. I don't pick old
• 14:21
  Speaker 8: Pete for Lou.
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: I can't. I'd gunn tight as well as the whole town.
• 14:38
  Speaker 6: Look hand run his way.
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: Yes, one of the memory trailed and he's wounded. Tonnel.
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: Help him. Put him on your horse and meet me
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: along the river south of town.
• 14:45
  Speaker 8: Huh where you going?
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: I catch that? Runaway teams come on.
• 14:48
  Speaker 17: Silver curtain falls on the first act of our Lone
• 14:57
  Speaker 17: Ranger story. Before the next exciting scenes, please permit us
• 15:01
  Speaker 17: to pause for just a few moments, and not.
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: To continue our story.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: Ethel Carter's team of young ponies were badly frightened by
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: the gunfire. They raised headlong down the river road, with
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: a light buckboard greening behind them. Hathl and her father
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: clung desperately to the wagon.
• 15:30
  Speaker 16: We do but hope if I can only get it.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: But at that same instant, not far behind, the runaway
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: team was lunging through the night with ever increasing speed.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: The Lone Ranger was urging his great white stallion forward.
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: Slowly but surely.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: The masked man in silver drew alongside the team of violent,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: frightened ponies and a straining closing buckboard which John Carter
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: and his daughter clung precariously. They held on inside, although
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: they knew that at any moment the light wagon would.
• 16:02
  Speaker 7: Be smacked into a million pieces.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: I think row the breast of the racing team, the
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: lone range of Paul for just a moment, then leave
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: it the punging back.
• 16:10
  Speaker 7: One of the police, whoa his firm and steady hand,
• 16:15
  Speaker 7: brought the horses to a stands.
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: Everything is all right.
• 16:19
  Speaker 8: Ever saw I was riding in my life. You saved
• 16:22
  Speaker 8: our lives.
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: It'll be all right now after they rest a few minutes.
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: I don't know how to thank you, stranger. Thanks all
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: ry necessary I got that can help shoet me. You're
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: wearing a mask, white horse out law.
• 16:39
  Speaker 7: It was you who fired those shots at Loo.
• 16:40
  Speaker 5: No, I didn't fire the shots. I saw everything that happened.
• 16:44

• 23:31
  Speaker 10: you three critters, and the sheriff does what the boss says.
