Return to the days of yesteryear, when out of the hills come the thundering hooves of the mighty horse, Silver, and the shouts of the Lone Ranger.
The local doctor gives a diagnosis that declares that a pioneer man has a month to live. He can’t bear to give the bad news to his wife. A friend approaches him with a plan to make sure his family will be cared for when he’s gone. It’s the kind of proposition that only a desperate man with nothing to lose might go for. Little does he know that the Lone Ranger, and Tonto are about to ride to town to see the doc about an injury that Tonto has suffered. The pair get supplies and help from the poor pioneer family.
What happens next? Your guess is as good as mine. The audio is cut short after the first act. So, we never find out if Tonto survives his injury, or if the ailing pioneer dies in the mine shaft. It certainly looks like some tight spots for the Lone Ranger, but I’d bet he pulled a miracle out of his white hat to save the day.
