- 1:00Speaker 4: At a A A A at.
- 2:01Speaker 2: Most of the Indian wars during the early years of
- 2:03Speaker 2: the Western United States were caused by officials who used
- 2:07Speaker 2: their position to rob the red men. Greed was the
- 2:10Speaker 2: driving force behind all their actions, and it was not
- 2:13Speaker 2: until the masked rider of the plane started his great
- 2:16Speaker 2: fight for justice that they paid the penalty for their
- 2:19Speaker 2: open defiance of the public good. It was the Lone Ranger,
- 2:22Speaker 2: more than any other man, who blazed the trail for
- 2:25Speaker 2: the winning of the West. Return with us now to
- 2:28Speaker 2: those thrilling days of yesteryear. From out of the past,
- 2:31Speaker 2: come the thundering hoof beat to the great horse silver.
- 2:34Speaker 5: The Lone Ranger rides again on.
- 2:36Speaker 6: Silver for hanging to the Indian country. That's going to
- 2:40Speaker 6: be trouble wid.
- 2:49Speaker 2: Two thousand head of buffalo grazed in the basin on
- 2:52Speaker 2: the western rim. Two horsemen, dark figures against the sunset gold,
- 2:56Speaker 2: had rained up to watch them. One of the men
- 2:59Speaker 2: was tall in broad shoulder. He rode a great white
- 3:02Speaker 2: stallion and wore a mask. His companion, an Indian, was
- 3:06Speaker 2: mounted on a paint.
- 3:07Speaker 6: They're drifting him south. Helloa. Ah, they didn't get farther
- 3:10Speaker 6: than the Wishboone range this year.
- 3:11Speaker 7: They are not many now and don't have to go
- 3:13Speaker 7: far north.
- 3:14Speaker 6: That a few years ago they were over a million
- 3:16Speaker 6: head and traveled as far north as White Ridge in
- 3:18Speaker 6: the Thunderclouds country.
- 3:20Speaker 7: Half right. Indian killed buffalo have plenty meat for winter.
- 3:23Speaker 6: Thundercloud's tribe won't starve even without the buffalo.
- 3:26Speaker 7: Ah, say them not hunt White Ridge anymore?
- 3:28Speaker 6: Lah says they can't hunt on this side of the.
- 3:30Speaker 7: Ridge, not much game on the other side, and winter.
- 3:33Speaker 6: I know it doesn't seem fair to Utano. The government's
- 3:35Speaker 6: taken away one of their best hunting grounds. The tribe
- 3:38Speaker 6: will be well taken care of. They'll be given enough
- 3:40Speaker 6: beef to last through the winter.
- 3:41Speaker 7: Maybe so no buffalo and humber, no game in winter.
- 3:45Speaker 7: Heap bad for Indian.
- 3:46Speaker 6: Not with government beef to tie them over. Ah, well,
- 3:49Speaker 6: we stopped at the circle bar. No, they're driving six
- 3:51Speaker 6: hundred head north for Thundercloud's tribe. There's nothing to worry about.
- 3:55Speaker 7: Some Indian Asian good many band.
- 3:58Speaker 6: That's true. Have you heard any thing about the Indian
- 4:00Speaker 6: agent in Grandville. Him knew might be a good idea
- 4:04Speaker 6: right up that way. Uh agent named Grady, him from east,
- 4:07Speaker 6: and he won't be able to understand the Indians very well.
- 4:10Speaker 6: We may be able to help him, help thunder clown,
- 4:12Speaker 6: of course, if he needs it. He's our friend.
- 4:14Speaker 7: This winter be long cold all time. Show that wind,
- 4:19Speaker 7: chili cold. Come soon.

- 9:00Speaker 10: only paid for three. Yep.
- 9:02Speaker 5: I don't mind stealing from the Engines, but we'll be
- 9:04Speaker 5: stealing from the government too.
- 9:05Speaker 10: Washington will never find out. Suppose the Engines kick. They
- 9:08Speaker 10: don't know how much beef they're supposed to get, and
- 9:11Speaker 10: I'll kick if they're hungry, only to me, and it
- 9:13Speaker 10: won't get any further. And if they're hungry, let them
- 9:17Speaker 10: go out and hunt. They might go after our cattle.
- 9:19Speaker 10: Low says they can't cross White Ridge. If you see
- 9:22Speaker 10: any on the valley's side, shoot the kill. It's trespassing.
- 9:25Speaker 10: You within your rights. I'm not a bad shot. Do
- 9:28Speaker 10: a mess man ready.
- 9:29Speaker 6: I'm giving you a warning. Do you fairly with Chief
- 9:32Speaker 6: Thunderclouds tribe and you'll have no trouble. Gotta cheat them
- 9:35Speaker 6: and you'll endanger the lives of every man and woman here.
- 9:37Speaker 6: Who are you? It doesn't matter. Remember my warning.
- 9:40Speaker 5: He's in our flaw. Get the sheriff after him.
- 9:42Speaker 10: Well, here we are. He's not flaw sure in the
- 9:47Speaker 10: friend of thunder Clouds, but he can't do anything. Does
- 9:49Speaker 10: Maybe he hurt us talking? Possibly? I don't like it.
- 9:51Speaker 10: We've made our plans too well for anybody to catch
- 9:54Speaker 10: us up. We're going through with him, and by the
- 9:56Speaker 10: time I'm ready to quit this job, we'll both be rich.
- 10:00Speaker 2: In cabins were built in White River Valley the Circle
- 10:15Speaker 2: Bar Trail. Herds reached Grantville, half were driven onto the
- 10:19Speaker 2: Norton Range, half were held in a sheltered valley near
- 10:22Speaker 2: the town. Then every week Thundercloud received his ration of beet,
- 10:26Speaker 2: but only half enough to feed his people. With the
- 10:29Speaker 2: first snowfall, the game disappeared from the north side of
- 10:32Speaker 2: the ridge, and the Indian camp was faced with slow starvation.
- 10:37Speaker 2: One night, the Lone Ranger and Tonto rode into Grantville
- 10:40Speaker 2: and reigned up in front of Grady's home.
- 10:44Speaker 6: Stay here too, I will below.
- 10:46Speaker 7: Huh you tell him what we see over up?
- 10:51Speaker 6: Guddy? What's it over up?
- 10:55Speaker 10: Who is it? What's the hed?
- 10:58Speaker 6: I'm coming in. I canna gun here you come, you
- 11:00Speaker 6: will need your gun. Just come from thunder Clouds camp?
- 11:03Speaker 3: Eh.
- 11:04Speaker 6: Do you know how many Indians are in that camp?
- 11:06Speaker 6: If you don't, you should.
- 11:07Speaker 10: What about it?
- 11:07Speaker 6: They need more food?
- 11:09Speaker 10: You trying to tell me how to run my business.
- 11:11Speaker 6: I'm telling you a simple fact. I need twice as
- 11:14Speaker 6: much beef as you're giving them.
- 11:15Speaker 10: Do you want me to give it to him now
- 11:17Speaker 10: and let him go without at the end of the winter.
- 11:19Speaker 6: Can't you buy more?
- 11:19Speaker 10: Where would they get the money?
- 11:20Speaker 6: Right to Washington? Tell them the need is urgent.
- 11:22Speaker 10: I wouldn't get a reply for months. Give me the letter,
- 11:25Speaker 10: let me get he answer would be no, the government's
- 11:28Speaker 10: spend all the money it's going to when there was
- 11:29Speaker 10: no good redskins.
- 11:31Speaker 6: They won't feel that way if you explain the situation.
- 11:33Speaker 6: The Indians are forbidden to hunt south of the ridge.
- 11:36Speaker 6: There's no game to the north.
- 11:37Speaker 10: Better stay where it belong.
- 11:39Speaker 6: They will thunder clouds. Tribe is peaceful. They'll obey the
- 11:42Speaker 6: law until hunger forces him to break it.
- 11:43Speaker 10: Hunger's no excuse. I have too livery rancher to shoot
- 11:47Speaker 10: the kill if he sees an Indian on this side
- 11:48Speaker 10: of the ridge.
- 11:49Speaker 6: Do you want an uprising?
- 11:50Speaker 10: I'm the agent here. How many stings my way?
- 11:52Speaker 6: You realize how many Indians there are in comparison with
- 11:55Speaker 6: the white settlers in this section of it.
- 11:56Speaker 10: We got rifles. They don't like. You're at it, mass Man.
- 12:01Speaker 10: You broke into my office once and warned me not
- 12:03Speaker 10: to cheat undercloud. You talk like a relegade. I wouldn't
- 12:08Speaker 10: be surprised if you were trying to stir up the ridskins.
- 12:10Speaker 10: Get us old musket share from the posse. Be on
- 12:13Speaker 10: your trail before morning.
- 12:14Speaker 6: You don't want me arrested. If I were, I might
- 12:16Speaker 6: start asking questions that you'd find hard to answer.
- 12:19Speaker 10: I'm ready to show my books any time. I'll get
- 12:23Speaker 10: out of here.
- 12:24Speaker 6: I'm going, but I'll be back in the meantime. Give
- 12:28Speaker 6: those Indians more beef, you will have trouble.
- 12:38Speaker 2: A week later, Bill connors ed, Norton, and Grady rode
- 12:53Speaker 2: toward the two cabins in White River Valley after an
- 12:56Speaker 2: inspection of the herd.
- 12:58Speaker 6: The ridge.
- 12:58Speaker 2: The riot was covered with snow, but there was only
- 13:01Speaker 2: an occasional white patch on the plane below.
- 13:03Speaker 10: You firmly show it for the hurd.
- 13:05Speaker 5: Bill, They would a will if we don't have any
- 13:08Speaker 5: more snow.
- 13:08Speaker 10: You will protect it here in the valley. They have
- 13:10Speaker 10: to be a blizzard. Hey, what's a minute? No cop
- 13:12Speaker 10: at the ridge coming over the top.
- 13:14Speaker 5: It's an elk there he goes into the pine.
- 13:19Speaker 6: He's been wounded.
- 13:19Speaker 10: How can you tell?
- 13:20Speaker 1: I don't know the moved.
- 13:22Speaker 10: Some Indian must to shoot him. Why don't they learn
- 13:25Speaker 10: to shoot straight?
- 13:26Speaker 5: And it's hard to kill an elk with one arrow.
- 13:28Speaker 10: There's the indian. Now if he comes one step father,
- 13:30Speaker 10: he's breaking the law.
- 13:31Speaker 12: He's got to finish there. You'll have a rifle, Bill
- 13:33Speaker 12: shoot him the Indian. Of course, I will not hear
- 13:36Speaker 12: within your rights. Radio back up. That engine ain't hurting
- 13:39Speaker 12: me or the cattle. Just going after that buck to
- 13:41Speaker 12: finish him. You'll heard what I said, I'm all right, Grady.
- 13:44Speaker 10: He'll teach the rest of him to stay with the glow.
- 13:46Speaker 5: Not me. You're the farmer of this outfit, but I'm
- 13:48Speaker 5: the boss. I'm ordering you to shoot that engine.
- 13:50Speaker 6: Do your own dirty work.
- 13:52Speaker 10: Are you refusing to obey my orders?
- 13:54Speaker 5: I sure am.
- 13:55Speaker 9: I had a hunchy one honor in the low down
- 13:57Speaker 9: sidewinder from the first day we met. I only took
- 13:59Speaker 9: the job because of Shan. But now I'm through.
- 14:02Speaker 12: You're local, you're true, all right. I'll pay you off
- 14:04Speaker 12: as soon as we get back to the cabin. But
- 14:06Speaker 12: that rifle belongs to me. I hand it, old lady.
- 14:08Speaker 10: Give it to him.
- 14:09Speaker 5: If he shoots that engine.
- 14:10Speaker 6: You know what will happen, don't you.
- 14:11Speaker 10: It's a kind of treatment they need.
- 14:13Speaker 13: Take your rifle. I'm not party to this. Get up there, boy, yeah,
- 14:25Speaker 13: pack your war back.
- 14:25Speaker 5: Sleepy, we're getting out of here. I just heard the show,

- 14:32Speaker 6: Sounds like a war party.
- 14:33Speaker 10: It is.
- 14:34Speaker 9: There must have been more engines on the other side
- 14:35Speaker 9: of the ridge. They saw what happened, Sleepy, We're in
- 14:38Speaker 9: for a fight.
- 14:45Speaker 13: The curtain falls on the first act of our Lone
- 14:48Speaker 13: Ranger story.

- 15:58Speaker 2: Ed Norton shot at an India would follow the wounded
- 16:01Speaker 2: elk over the ridge. A moment later, a whole party
- 16:04Speaker 2: of Indians could be seen on the top of the ridge.
- 16:06Speaker 2: They yelled, split the cold clear air. They ran toward
- 16:09Speaker 2: their fallen companion, and Norton and Grady raced for the
- 16:12Speaker 2: first cabin where Ed and Sharon lived.

- 16:48Speaker 11: Are they really going to attack soon?

- 17:12Speaker 5: money will be paid on the day you marry.
- 17:15Speaker 11: That'll be just as soon as Villa and I can
- 17:16Speaker 11: get to town. Wait a minute, you want to marry me,

- 17:30Speaker 9: The Redskins are coming down from the ridge, but they
- 17:32Speaker 9: haven't got any fight with us I started.
- 17:34Speaker 10: You can't set us out there to die.
- 17:36Speaker 9: He wouldn't do any good. They couldn't see you fire
- 17:38Speaker 9: that shot from the ridge. They'll hold us home. Responsible. Grady,

- 17:48Speaker 6: Leon and range?
- 17:49Speaker 11: Yet I almost wish they'd start yelling again.
- 17:51Speaker 6: They mean business.
- 17:52Speaker 10: Now, what's that smell on the white horse? He's riding
- 17:56Speaker 10: into the belly fle east. There's Lynchin with you man
- 18:00Speaker 10: and an injun. Say that he's a friend of thunder Clouds.
- 18:02Speaker 10: You're sure, Hosive, you can bring him down to another
- 18:04Speaker 10: minute out.
- 18:05Speaker 6: Of the way.
- 18:05Speaker 5: You can't shoot him, Bill, I'll give him a chance
- 18:07Speaker 5: to show his colors. Rain up for a fire.
- 18:10Speaker 10: Do believe him? Shoot while you still get the church.
- 18:12Speaker 11: He's riding straight toward the cab.
- 18:14Speaker 5: Get away from that opening chain.
- 18:15Speaker 11: I won't let your shoot Bill. Suppose he is a friend.
- 18:17Speaker 11: Suppose he's come here to help us. Come on over
- 18:20Speaker 11: to the door. You can keep in cupboard until he
- 18:22Speaker 11: rides up from there. You said you'd give him a chance.
- 18:25Speaker 6: All right, Watch out for the Indians if they aren't
- 18:27Speaker 6: close enough.
- 18:28Speaker 5: Yes, steady, mass man, you'll cover it.
- 18:32Speaker 6: Why are those Indians attacking?
- 18:33Speaker 9: Ed Norton shot one of them up on the ridge.
- 18:35Speaker 9: Get off that horse, keep your hands high and walk
- 18:38Speaker 9: this way.
- 18:38Speaker 6: Then you see a thunder Clouds with him, Totto, No,
- 18:41Speaker 6: you're not there. He's the only Anne who stopped him.
- 18:43Speaker 6: Head back to the east. And cross the ridge from
- 18:45Speaker 6: that side. Bring Thundercloud here as fast as you can.
- 18:47Speaker 6: Once you do, I'll ride toward the ridge and meet them.
- 18:49Speaker 6: I'll try to keep them away from the cabins. Whoil
- 18:51Speaker 6: you get back?
- 18:51Speaker 7: And that plenty of danger?
- 18:52Speaker 6: He wait, isn't that Thundercloud coming down the ridge?
- 18:55Speaker 7: Now him? Ryan horse?
- 18:56Speaker 10: Like that?
- 18:58Speaker 7: Not him?
- 18:58Speaker 6: Your bill, colors, aren't you?
- 19:00Speaker 11: Yes, you've heard enough, Bill. They're trying to help us.
- 19:04Speaker 6: What do you want? Mass Man? Who else is in
- 19:06Speaker 6: the cabin? Norton Grady and we came here to find him?
- 19:09Speaker 6: And Sleepy Horllow tell them all to hold their fire.
- 19:11Speaker 6: If you try to make a fight of it, you
- 19:12Speaker 6: haven't a chance.
- 19:13Speaker 10: What if they attack?
- 19:14Speaker 6: And we'll talk with Thundercloud and do what we can
- 19:16Speaker 6: consul very much? Shout?
- 19:18Speaker 11: We call his horse silver.
- 19:20Speaker 1: I heard him.
- 19:21Speaker 10: You told that mass Man we wouldn't shoot.
- 19:23Speaker 6: You'll do as he says.
- 19:24Speaker 9: It's a trick, he's We're in a tight spot, mister,
- 19:27Speaker 9: and he's the only one who can get us out
- 19:29Speaker 9: of it.
- 19:30Speaker 10: That mask man is the lone range.
- 19:50Speaker 8: The little band in the cabin watched the lone range.
- 19:52Speaker 8: He're on Totto. As they rode toward the Indians.
- 19:55Speaker 2: Chief thunder Claude was waiting for them in the front
- 19:57Speaker 2: rank of his braves for minutes that see deemed all.
- 20:00Speaker 2: As the masked man of the chief talked. At last,
- 20:03Speaker 2: Thunderclog could be seen to raise his arm, and a
- 20:06Speaker 2: single file of Indians moved to the east and to
- 20:09Speaker 2: the west, and.
- 20:10Speaker 10: They're surrounding us the tools. It was a trick. Mass
- 20:13Speaker 10: Man's coming back.
- 20:14Speaker 5: You won't get here if I can help it. Put
- 20:16Speaker 5: down that rifle, not on your line.
- 20:17Speaker 10: No, no, that's the way.
- 20:19Speaker 5: Why didn't I think of that, Moselle. You'll be sorry,
- 20:22Speaker 5: carr all about it.
- 20:24Speaker 6: Mass Man was the Indian killed, He was badly wounded,
- 20:27Speaker 6: and he's been taken back to the camp. Let go,
- 20:29Speaker 6: I've met a bargain with Thundercloud. Indians are surrounding the cabin,
- 20:33Speaker 6: but they won't attack. If you don't open fire or
- 20:36Speaker 6: try to escape, you'll be safe until dawn tomorrow.
- 20:39Speaker 10: Until done what happens to us.
- 20:41Speaker 6: Then, if Silver can make it to River City and
- 20:43Speaker 6: back before then each of you will get exactly what
- 20:45Speaker 6: you deserve.
- 20:46Speaker 10: What kind of talk is said?
- 20:48Speaker 6: I mean that if your conscience is clear, you'll have
- 20:51Speaker 6: nothing to worry about it.
- 20:53Speaker 5: It's sort of a truth.
- 20:55Speaker 6: Yes, what are you gonna do in River City? It's
- 20:57Speaker 6: a long way.
- 20:58Speaker 10: Are they gonna let you out of the value on me?
- 21:01Speaker 6: That's all? Couldn't you take Shan along?
- 21:03Speaker 11: I don't want to go with them.
- 21:05Speaker 6: You won't be hurt no matter what happens. Yes, I
- 21:08Speaker 6: wish that I could guarantee your safety. Bill, that's impossible,
- 21:12Speaker 6: mass manner. I know who you are, and I know
- 21:15Speaker 6: you're doing your best to help us. That's good enough
- 21:17Speaker 6: for me. We go now, asked Toto. We'll have to hurry, remember,
- 21:22Speaker 6: don We'll bring you exactly what you deserve. Come on there, boy.
- 21:47Speaker 2: The afternoon shadows were beginning to lengthen as the Lone
- 21:50Speaker 2: Ranger and Tonto raced across the level floor of the
- 21:52Speaker 2: valley to the east. When night fell, a circle of
- 21:56Speaker 2: campfires sprang up around the cabin, mute evidence. The Indians
- 22:00Speaker 2: were continuing the siege, but there was no sound at midnight,
- 22:05Speaker 2: and Bill decided there was no reason why they shouldn't
- 22:07Speaker 2: get some rest.
- 22:09Speaker 8: Then toward morning.
- 22:11Speaker 10: Heard yeah, uh, the others asleep. Yeah, even if the
- 22:16Speaker 10: mass Man gets us out of the shoes, stand to
- 22:18Speaker 10: loose you share the rainge. She hasn't married that cow
- 22:21Speaker 10: hand yet she will and I don't like it either.
- 22:25Speaker 10: What's it to you? How can I claim my share
- 22:27Speaker 10: the kettle without explaining where they came from? Yeah, you
- 22:30Speaker 10: stand to lose plenty, not if we uh get rid
- 22:34Speaker 10: of Bill? How the mass man said the Indians wouldn't
- 22:38Speaker 10: stand for us trying to get out of the.
- 22:39Speaker 5: Valley, and whatever he says goes as far as Bill's concerned.
- 22:42Speaker 10: He's sleeping there. He could uh hit 'em over the head,
- 22:46Speaker 10: kill him. Nah, just knock him out and get him outside,
- 22:49Speaker 10: tandoor horse and give the horse a lake, send him
- 22:53Speaker 10: streets and campfires. He'd never get past him at all, right,
- 22:58Speaker 10: but the better let me do it. I'd like to
- 23:00Speaker 10: get even for this afternoon? Care, don't we anybody have?
- 23:04Speaker 5: They're all dead to the world, and I can reach
- 23:07Speaker 5: him without moving and use my gun.
- 23:11Speaker 6: But this is the valley waters we're in time. Those
- 23:29Speaker 6: the Indian fires up ahead, Yes, let them know we're coming.

- 23:53Speaker 6: that horse over there? It's heading straight for the campfires.
- 23:56Speaker 6: One of them is trying to make a break for it,
- 23:57Speaker 6: and I thought that we gotta head him off. Come on,
- 23:59Speaker 6: Silver fast, if the Indians see him, wait for word
- 24:02Speaker 6: from thunder Cloud they were attacked. I can't keep up
- 24:04Speaker 6: with you, Master Silver. We've gotta stop him by that's it.
