Return to the thrilling days of yesteryear, when the Lone Ranger rides again.
Old Ben is a prospector who has been without luck, but persistently mining for 35 years. Suddnly, he rides into town to celebrate his big find. Not a mother lode of ore, but a treasure trove where a lost shipment of gold was buried under a landslide years ago.
The ownership of the shipment is wide open ssince the original person is long dead, and with no heirs. Word spreads, and since Old Ben hadn’t made proper claim, it’s free game for the mini gold rush to find the rest of the treasure. As men of all calibre flock to the area, it’s going to take the Lone Ranger to maintain law, order, and justice.
Hardcases kidnap Old Ben and try rough means to extract the whereabbouts of the treasure from him. The trouble is that the Lone Ranger has yet to make an appearance in this wild situation. Where is he when we need him? Wil he get there in time to rescue Old Ben? How can Ben return to his mine without leading every bandit to it?
The Lone Ranger makes a new friend in Ben when he arrives to bring justice to the situation. A trap is sprung on the host of bad guys who have been planning on horning in on the action.
