With his faithful Indian companion, Tonto, the daring and resourceful mask rider of the plains led 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 hoofbeats of the Great Horse Silver. The Lone Ranger rides again! Come on, I'm still there! Let's go, big car! I'm still there! Hooray! In the country, including a high government official in Washington, who knew that the Lone Ranger could sometimes be reached through the Padre in a little Spanish mission. When he had a message for the masked man, the Padre let the fact be known to Indians on all sides. Instead of a Padre, a compactly built man in civilian clothes came from inside the mission. The Lone Ranger recognized him as an official from Washington. Drake, what are you doing in the west? When you two have washed and had some food, I'll tell you why I'm here. The man from Washington refused to say more until after the Lone Ranger and Tonto had refreshed themselves and eaten a meal of plain but substantial food. Then seated at a table in the mission, he looked at the masked man and said, Dice Garmin is in jail. You put him there. I helped. But Sheriff Prindle of Carson County paid a large part in his capture. Sheriff Prindle was killed. Garmin shoot Prindle in back. But did you know Garmin was far worse than any stage robber or killer? Worse? That he and a small group of his associates were working to undermine the United States? Oh, I didn't know that. Now is to your special assignment. Here, look at this newspaper. Read the headlines. Dice Garmin breaks jail. Oh, him get away. Overpower the guard, took keys, let himself out. That isn't true. What? Garmin is still in jail and under special guard. There are at least four or five enemies who should be there with him. Those people are more dangerous than Garmin. They're the brains of the spy ring. Garmin was just the gunman, the man for off work. We want the others. And we've no idea who they are. You say it isn't true. Garmin's escaped. No, that newspaper is just a proof. At the proper time, the story will be released and published in all papers. As for you... What shall I do? You will become Dice Garmin. Oh, I see. You're about the same size and weight and you can wear a beard like Garmin's. I don't know how convincing I can be. Garmin seems to have had very little close contact with his associates. That's why it's almost impossible for us to locate them. That fact, however, will be in your favor. They can't know Garmin very well. When I caught Garmin, he was hiding in a cave. Burning papers, wasn't he? Yes. The papers that would have told us at once that he was an enemy agent and possibly given the names of his associates. That cave might have been a place of contact around the room. Exactly. His friends reading of his escape may look there for him. Good. You've grasped our idea. All right. Release the story, Drake. Let the papers know Dice Garmin has escaped from jail. Dice Garmin notorious outlaw serving a 20-year term for armed robbery and suspected of more than one murder. The carefully planned news story was released to papers in all parts of the country. It flashed by telegraph from coast to coast and border to border. The newspapers in the east paid scant attention, but those in the communities where Garmin had operated as a ruthless outlaw made page one headlines of the startling announcement. Dice Garmin at large. When Abigail Quindle, widow of the sheriff read the news, her eyes blazed with fury. Sally, her 18-year-old daughter, was equally enraged. That murder should have been hanged. When I think of him shooting Dad in the back and getting away with it... It couldn't be proved that he killed your father, dear. I know he did. Remember, Mother, I was with Dad when he died. He told me of a secret place where Garmin met his friends. He told you that, Sally? Yes, he did. I didn't know it. I'd like to go gunning for Garmin myself. Sally, you mustn't say such things. Someone at the door. I'll see who it is. Mrs. Marker. Howdy, Sally. Mind if I step in? Behold, do come in. Howdy, Abigail. Glad to see you, Mary. I'm so glad you did. The news about Dice Garmin getting free. Sally, are you going out? For a little while. I'm going to go call on the sheriff. Oh, he's not around, Sally. He's out with his desiccys looking for Garmin. Oh, well, I'll wait at his office. But the sheriff is here. Sally, you're taking your father's gun. Just for protection, mother. I'll not be long. Take the lie, Abigail. I tried to tell her the sheriff might not be bad for two, three days. Mary, I do hope Sally meant what she said. You think she didn't? She was with her father when he died, you know. And I guess learned that he told her with his last breath about the secret meeting place going ahead. Oh, I do hope she hasn't gone there looking for him. You think she'll go there looking for Garmin? Well, I hope not. Abigail, then call her back. She's headstrong, Mary. Mighty headstrong, just like her father. If she's put her mind to a thing, nothing will stop her. Mary Marker hurried home. And there, her manner changed to a plenty hardness. As she called in a border named Jenks. Jenks, it's a good thing I went to the Prindle house. I learned something. Oh, yeah? Oh, it's there. Before he died, Sheriff Prindle told his daughter a few things. I don't know how much he told her, but she does know about the cave. To that cave Prindle, Jenks, if you see the girl, tie her up and keep her there. If you see Garmin, tell him to wait until he hears from me. I've got to think things over. I don't know, Garmin, when I see him. If you see a big man with a beard, it'll be Garmin. I guess so. The cave that served as a secret meeting place for the conspirators was just a few miles from town. The entrance was hidden by a stand of underbrush, so dense that a person could pass within three feet and notice the black opening in a cliff. Sally left her horse among some nearby trees and approached the cave on foot. She stopped abruptly when she saw a mud-spattered horse tied to the underbrush. More cautiously than ever, the girl crept forward, little suspecting that her every move was watched from inside the cave by a tall man who wore a beard that resembled the beard of Dice Gorman in place of a mask that marked him as the lone ranger. When the girl was just passed the doorway, he spoke. Please stand still. You! Dice Gorman! I'll take that, Garmin. No! What? You beast! There. Please tell me quickly who you are. Why did you come here with a gun? I came to kill you, Gorman. To kill you the way you killed my father. Your father? Sheriff Pindle. I didn't expect you to come here, Miss Pindle. I'm sorry, I'll have to tell you. Why don't you shoot me and be done with it? Shoot me in the back if dad was shot. That's real, wouldn't you? You kill me, Garmin! I wish I could convince you that you're not behind. Someone's coming. It's the sheriff to get you. You'd better run while you have the chance. It's not the sheriff, Miss Pindle. I happen to know where he is. There, that will hold you. Come in, but come slowly. Don't have a gun in your hand. It is. I blame you for being careful. Jake! Oh, I see you caught the girl. I came here to warn you she was on the way. You can know where the gun, Gorman. Guess you ought to know I'm all right. I'm sure glad to meet you face to face at last. So you're one of the gang. Too bad you had to find it out, Miss Sally. Now that you know it, you know enough to be dangerous to us. Gangs? Did you bring any instructions? Girls be kept here so she can't get away. You're to wait till the boss makes a plan. I'd like to see the boss. Later. Meanwhile, you better keep a sharp watch on the girl. She's tired. Watch close anyway. Her father was plenty smart. And they tell me she's as smart as he was. You tell the boss to come here tonight at the latest. I've been through a lot in the past months, and I expect to be paid for it. Right, I'll pass the word. I'm sorry you had to try taking the low on your own hands, Miss Sally. I'm done right sorry for you. Save your sympathy, Gangs. Yeah, see you later, Gorman. Very well. Now, Miss Trot, I wish you answered just one quest. What's that, Sally? You either killed a masked man and stole his belt full of silver bullets. Or you're the man who generally wears a mask and you're posing as I go. Now, would you? We'll continue our lone ranger adventure in just a moment. All over the country in every direction How you do it is a question And here's what's to happen That people have to say Are we decent? Do, do, do, do an okay? Okay. And that's the truth. Take California champions, for instance. Now, way out west, you'll hear us talking About a quarterback we call Van Broklin A passing star with Wheaties style Who throws that ball a country mile And Duke Snyder too is a west coast man A fancy slugger and the Wheaties fan Who takes his bat and scares them all When he knocks the hide right off the ball Now, these two champions know That there's big energy in their favorite cereal Because there's a whole kernel of wheat In every Wheaties flake Wheaties, breakfast of champions Keep party to your Wheaties And you do, do, do an okay? Okay. All to continue The daughter of the murdered sheriff Was an exceptionally discerning girl Though the lone ranger was bearded Instead of masked and posing as Dice Gorman Sally noticed that his gun belt Held silver cartridges Are you Gorman or the lone ranger? Sally, I'm not Dice Gorman You've complicated things by coming here I'll have to trust you Here, I'll untie your hands Why'd you tie them in the first place? You'd left until Gorman Dice Gorman was here That had come for me Before I could accomplish a special assignment I couldn't let you do that No Now I can't keep you here You heard what Jenks said You'd probably come back with orders to kill you I'll have to fix up some story of your escape What is your assignment? As much I can't tell you I can't, however, tell you I hope to do what your father tried to do You gotta remember the game I wish I could help you You can help by waiting until dark Before you go home I don't let anyone see you Get into your house and remain there Your hands are free Oh, before I go I wonder if I might have a silver book A memento Oh, why, of course Here Oh, thank you You really are the lone ranger, aren't you? Now don't worry, do anyone but your mother And caution your mother not to tell You can tell on me While Sally waited until darkness had gathered Before venturing into town Jenks reported to Mary Marker A western agent of the undercover organization That daughter of the sheriff will make trouble for us Unless we take action Too bad I rather like the girl How's Gorman? All right, Farzano He wants pay for the time he's spent in jail I'll take care of him I'll get him out of the country Where he'll be safe There's work to be done in Mexico I'll send him to our agent there He says he wants to see you You go back, Jenks Tell him to slip into town around midnight There'll be a man in back of the livery stable With clothes, papers and instructions Also cash All right, I'll tell him I'm calling on Mrs. Prindle tonight Now sit with her and see that things are kept under control When she worries about Sally not coming back What about the girl? You know what about the girl, Jenks If you don't want to earn the $50 bonus for her shooting Go on then That evening the shades were drawn tight In the home of Sheriff Prindle's widow Mrs. Prindle sat beside a table with some needlework While Sally sat nearby holding a silver bullet The girl's reverie was interrupted by a rap on the door The door's early You better get in the new room I remember what I told you about Oh, it's just Mary Marker Do come in Oh, my sakes, Mary, I have so much to tell you Sally's had the most amazing thing ever Is she here? Oh, yes, of course Come in, Sally, it's all right It's just Mary Marker I told you we weren't to say a word Oh, but Mary's all right Well, Sally went to that secret meeting place She found the man who answered the description of Dice Gorman But it wasn't Gorman It was the Lone Ranger I should think she would be surprised Did he say why? We can't tell you anymore, Mrs. Marker Mother shouldn't have told you anything at all Sally, Mary Marker's one of my best friends Why I trusted her with no end of secrets Even your father trusted Mary Marker Well, Mary, the truth is Gorman had other people working with him Before he went to jail And the Lone Ranger hopes to catch some of them Oh, he does He's already learned who one of them is And this will be a shock to you Yes Oh, mother, please don't say any more All right, Sally Well, I'll just forget every word I've heard I almost say it's alive What's the matter? I declare at the game I came away from the house And left bread in my oven And the fire going I must get on right away What a shame, Mary And you just got here Now, why don't you and Sally come with me? It's time to skip and to jump down the street No, we... I have much to tell you That you might tie in with what you've learned about James Why, um... Maybe I can help that Lone Ranger Oh, come, Sally We'll go with Mary You'll be safe in her home James wouldn't look for you there But mother, I... Besides, as Mary says She might have information that would be of help Oh, it's dark and the street's empty No one has seen you Sally had little choice She was persuaded to go with her mother To the home of Mary Marker Now, make yourself at home I'll go to the kitchen See about the bread I'll be right back Mother, I don't smell any bread, Baker Sally, do you think Mary Marker would feel to me? I don't know Something about that woman The way she acted When she heard about the Lone Ranger Anyone would be surprised at what you said I didn't say it, mother You did And I wish you hadn't I promised that man He kept your promise You didn't tell anything There they are, boys Two men and guns And again, you and Sally Are the biggest surprise of your lives Meet Scarf Inner and Red Tuffy Don't cry out and don't move, Sally Mrs. Marker, what does this mean? These men are friends of mine Also friends of James James Mary, what does this mean? Get ropes on these two women All right, boss Boss, get away from me Let me go with you Hurry with those ropes, boys Come on over here Get the women tied And get over to the stable And tell James It's not Gorman in the cave It's the Lone Ranger James had already gone to the cave With the instructions for the bearded man He escorted the Lone Ranger Whom he thought was Dice Gorman Through the darkness Toward the rear of the livery stable What's the matter? You look over there Behind the livery stable I see several men But I can't see who they are They were supposed to be Just one man there Wonder if anything's going wrong Maybe I'm to have company when I ride So Let's go, finish Hi, Scott Thank you, John James Red, you here too? And me What's the idea? You'll find out, James All right, get off that horse, Mr. I plan to Use you as a big fella You're supposed to be Dice Gorman James will tell you Oh, sure he's Dice Gorman What about it, Ben?

This ain't Gorman anymore than I am This is the Lone Ranger What about Gorman? Where's he at? Probably still in jail The boss thinks the whole thing Was a trick to get the rest of us The evidence to hang us I guess now, Mary, you realize I was right When I told her it was dangerous To keep her records and reports And letters in her home Sally hadn't talked This critter would have succeeded In this plan So there is evidence to hang you I'm glad to know that Yeah, but you'll never get to use it All right, tie his hands and rip off That beard and let's see What the critter really looks like Let me get it It's a girl, it's Sally Sally, Sally, come back here Where is she?
