stranger eats again with his faithful Indian companion taughto the daring and resourceful mask rider of the planes let the fight for law and order in the early western United States nowhere in the pages of history can one find a greater champion of justice return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear from out of the past come the thundering hoof beats of the great horse silver the lone ranger rides again L Diablo was a name known and feared throughout the southwest wherever men gathered I was usually someone who could relate an experience with a notorious bandit one morning at the sheriff's office in Pecos the express agent was telling of a recent robbery I was working late last night sure getting a big shipment of cash ready to leave on the morning stage for start and I heard the door open and turn to see who it was great senior I'm gonna go for your gun no no see senior no doubt you've heard of L Diablo hell Diablo oh yes yes I won't move Mr. or you are wise amigo I shall not hesitate to shoo you if you do blacky text me now to say quickly all right when I'm brave here the name L Diablo they shake too much to holy god hurry get the cash from the safe well share after they cleaned out the safe they tied and gagged me and left me behind the counter I was found only a short time ago I'm gonna that means I had all night to make you get away how much did they take around $20,000 that hombre L Diablo is smooth talking but he's plenty dangerous yes it's right he's already wanted from more than one murder well they'll form a party sipping pick up their trail you say they were free of them that's all I saw but it sounded like more than three year old away here come on we'll get that party together that morning in a hideout cabin not far from town the man called L Diablo sat talking to his followers we have done well seniors no sure every lawman in the territory is looking for L Diablo described as a tall Mexican this guy's in myself as a Mexican and using an accent was the best idea I ever had you was rushed you got them all guessing nobody suspects L Diablo is really rust seldom posing as a drifting cowpoke that's right as usual we took great pains to cover our tracks you men stay here for a while until the excitement ties down what are you going to do rest I'm going to town that agent must have been found by this time I might even join the sheriff's posse and help search for L Diablo so long see you later the clever bandit rode to town and joined the posse by subtle suggestion he managed to steer them away from the vicinity of the hideout where his men were waiting later after losing the trail the posse was returning to town they can have it L Diablo was too clever for it I was hoping we'd find him in his gunman this time yes so was I chef the cash shouldn't come in by stage day after tomorrow I'd hate to have them get wind of it I'm most likely by this time that gang is a long way from here is a rick and souce healing they had a big start on this the bandit leader returned to the hideout cabin he told the men about the expected shipment saying they didn't know they were given the information directly to L Diablo I was glad to hear about it figure on grabbing that cash shipment from the stage sure you Texan I can handle the job Blankey the rest of the men will wait for us here and there won't be so many tracks to cover sure good idea when does the stage come through it's due just before sundown day after tomorrow we'll stop it in narrow valley after we pull that job we'll leave this territory and head south the afternoon that the stage was due the bandit leader with black Ian Tex waited in hiding in narrow valley once more Russ Selden wore the disguise of L Diablo he had cleverly used a berry stain to darken his skin in such a way that even careful scrutiny would not betray him Tex was saying you sure are a wizard at putting on that disguise Russ and with the accent you use your pass for a Mexican even below the border hey here comes the stage have your guns ready we'll right out shooting let's go yeah yeah meantime the lone ranger and tato wrote a trail overlooking the valley only at the stage mask man and indian waist down the slope black Ian Tex turned and urged their horses into a gallop up the opposite slope while L Diablo held back to exchange more shots with the oncoming mask man and indian realizing his two companions have left he too turned and headed up the other slope we've got to capture one of them fellow one behind another to get him fleeing bandit leader looked back and saw the mask man and indian moving closer he emptied his gun in their direction but the movements of his galloping horse spoiled his aim and realizing his gun was empty he hosted it and urged his horse to greater speed yeah yeah once more he glanced back just as the little rangers larry at snake down and yet him from the saddle covered time for them why should a mask man want to capture L Diablo so you're L Diablo I see Senor glad to hear it the law wants you in your gun slicks the law but what course a mask man who helps the law time well thought of maybe we find hideout catch other men there are more than the two you saw and when I do not come back he will know something is wrong and leave I know I have an idea it's still not enough for me to study his features in there about the same size and bill now what do you think I've came to something I've done grievous shirt in my saddlebag similar to his I'll put them on disguised my features to look like him and ride his horse of course I'll use an accent why you do that I'll trail the other two men of the hideout and impersonate L Diablo long enough to lead them into a trap abandoned leader's impulse was to speak in his natural voice deriding the mask man's plan then realizing the lone ranger and Indians still thought he was really a Mexican he cleverly decided to keep up the pretense hoping the gang would quickly discover they've been tricked he looked up and spoke you're very clever amigo thanks it risky chemo something it's worth trying to take this man to the sheriff after dark his captures to be kept secret until I go through with my plan me tell Sharon tell him that posing as L Diablo I'll plan with a gang to rob the express office at dawn suggests that he and his men were in hiding then we'll capture the gang a short time later the transformation was complete and the lone ranger stood before tanto saying well let me go do I not look like you'll be a blow you do plenty good job I'll take his horse now and follow the other two men of the hideout tie him on silver and take him to the sheriff if all goes well we'll have the whole gang by morning perhaps and you're the morning will bring you a bigger surprise than you think mounted on the bandit leaders horse the lone ranger picked up the trail of blacky and text though they had taken precautions to cover their tracks the masked man finally managed to find them at the cabin blacky tex and the other three crooks discussed what had happened if Russ got away from the two armies he should have been here by now maybe he's taking time to cover his tracks well I say if he doesn't show up within the next half hour we'd better hit the trail for the border going to those two embrace your spoil things for us I wonder what it sounds like Russ now yeah yeah it is hi Russ man alive are we glad to see you what happened don't raise me right to get rid of amigo right and so but you had us plenty worried you must not worry L Diablo can take care of himself no yeah yeah I have decided to pull a job at dawn Seniors as much cash at the express office we should go and take it hey why do you keep up the act you usually wait a minute sex and Diablo what's happened to your English my English cover a man that's not russian instantly five threatening guns pointed at the lone ranger he realized he had slipped up somewhere but trying to bluff his way through shrugging his shoulders he said what is this little joke omega it's no joke mister you're not L Diablo sure why do you say that do I not look like myself how about you look like him he did a clever job of imitating but the real Diablo doesn't use an accent when he's with us I'm sure now the tone of your voice is different what's his name and his and his well same your yeah you don't know mister and somehow L Diablo fooled you into thinking he's really Mexican that's why you kept up the accent Russell he used it on jobs right couple of you take his guns while we cover him then tie him to a chair we'll continue our lone ranger adventure in just a moment a cloud of dust a flash of light and a hearty pio marita the lone stranger oh me know they best tasting snack cakes but what's so funny there's my old food banana flip and began smiling Mickey Jim Jam and began laughing Mickey devil's delight days of yesteryear the lone stranger to continue the lone ranger realized he was trapped and it was useless to keep up the pretext any longer covered by guns in the hands of three of the men he also realized escape at the moment was out of the question as two of the men tied him to a chair he spoke in his normal voice so L Diablo isn't really a Mexican right and now I know that you aren't either where's Russ in jail watch yes where he belongs he got him yeah and if this Andre found his way here others may do the same thing wait a minute now while posing as L Diablo this army told us we were to hold up the express office at dawn I figure he planned to lead us into a trap hey that's right that case nobody come after him till morning we don't have to worry about that what are we gonna do we'll plug this army later then head for the border don't we plug him right now because I want to make him regret interfering in our business meanwhile under cover of darkness Tato had delivered the bandit leader to the sheriff and outlined the lone rangers plan they send to our friend the mask man sure has courage and brains keep this umbra cover Tato while I am time and put on handcuffs and I'll take him into a cell quickly the sheriff untied L Diablo and as he pushed the man sleeves up to put on the handcuffs he suddenly explained what's his hands and wrists are dyed Tato huh his arms are white rip open his shirt this is no Mexican his chest is as wet as pork fat that's not good to watch him a minute I'll get some water and rub it on his face all right sheriff so you found out I'm not Mexican the sheriff said nothing but came back and washed the dye from the leader's face ready to me this is worth selling me hey he rode with a party the other day when we look for all the oblox gang and now you know everything but let me tell you this the umbra who went to find the gang is in for trouble that's right sheriff him not know L Diablo not Mexican yeah and he doesn't know I never use the accent when I'm with the gang they'll spot him for a fake and take care of him come on you I'll put you where you belong after taking L Diablo into a cell the sheriff rejoin Tato Tato you think they'll really find out the mask man is impersonating their leader me think him in plenty danger what do we do you get posse sheriff me go to narrow valley then wait for moonlight and follow tracks alone ranger you and posse follow me leave clear trail we'll be ready to ride in 10 minutes in that good me go now take lone rangers horse try a fine hideout before it too late later at the hideout cabin blackie left his chair and walked to a window the moon's coming up now we'll wait a while longer then give that hombre what he deserves and leave for the border just who are you mister that matter answer me I weren't tired I'd beat you to a pulp shut up I'll remember that let him alone blackie we're about ready to leave now let me gun him and get it over with how about it mister you ready to take your bullet grab your gun to stand behind him tax I'll count to three and you let him have it I go through all that I like to watch him squirm go ahead all right I'll stand over here ready tax yeah yeah start cutting one as blackie spoke the first number the lone ranger tensed inwardly but he was determined not to show any emotion before the man who stood staring expectantly at him to the mask man had not lost all hope of escape without moving his lips he said a silent prayer that he be spared if it be the Lord's will his clear eyes caught and hell those of the man blackie for a moment the outlaw hesitated then looking away spoke the fatal number three shot came from the outlaws gun but from Tato's the Indian fired from the side window a split second before text to fire that shot came through the side window guns man I'll finish off that umbrae oh get him at that moment the sheriff and his man appeared at all the windows the sheriff called out a moment later the sheriff strolled into the cabin with his men all right we get to lose kill somebody thanks to you were the answer to my prayers this was almost my finish real turner came on ahead of us I'm mighty glad he did so my sheriff are you free now we see your guns on side table we get a thanks to the death these are the followers of L Diablo I don't know how you realize my impersonation had failed when we found out L Diablo isn't Mexican he's rust selling that Mr. Cowpoke Tato and I figured these men would realize you weren't selling this is one time I was caught in my own trap you can spread of that we cut L Diablo on his gang because of you my friend the main thing is that you're safe yes sheriff but there's one thing more I want to do before we leave here you blackie huh you're not so anxious to slap my face now are you stop bluffing if they weren't holding guns on us I'd beat the hide off you these men aren't going to stop you go ahead all right take this that's what I was waiting for I'll kill you yes blackie and balloon rangers to toe-to-toe exchanging hard they were well matched as to size but the mask man supple muscles and superior strength soon gave him the advantage as they fought the skull on blackie's face gradually gave way to a look of surprise then as he was right by the hard well-placed blows blackie showed fear and panic I'll show you I'll break your neck this is for the slaps in the face oh and this for trying to shoot me all right get him to his feet man hand cupping all right champ I reckon he'd think twice before I'd ever stand up to our friend again being such this cabin for the cash these tools from the express office I saw a blackie counting packets of cash a while ago sheriff yeah he put it back into the table drawer until they were ready to leave yep here's the cash for the express company represented we'll take it as evidence
