distant Southwest Territory. I'm mister Madock. Good to see you again, Thanks,

in the midst of a question whenthe door opened and then India entered.

(04:24):
excuse my friend me, will youWe're going in the next room,
have a little private talk. SheriffFraser led Toto into the adjoining cell room,
closing the door behind them. Mattockwaited a moment, then he left
his chair and hurried across the roomto the sheriff's desk. The sheriff's gun
holster was on top of the deskand his revolver lay beside it. Maddock,
moving quickly, removed the bullets fromthe gun, wrapped them in his
(04:45):
breast pocket handkerchief, and placed thefolded linen back into his pocket. He
replaced the gun and hurried back tohis chair. Through the window, he
saw a body of horsemen dismount infront of the bank across the street.
They adjusted bandanas across their faces andran up the three stairs leading to the
building. Bank president Jason Sterling andthree employees were placing stacks of money into
(05:08):
the safe when the mass bandits entered. Raise me, are this is a
whole right to have all the moneyI have? Those people who want to
get out, take the old guy. Here's a gun, but use yours
any suit Across the street. SheriffFreezer and Tottle entered the office from the
(05:31):
cell room as the sound of gunfirewas heard outside. Were shots sport.
Maddock, white faced, rose fromhis chair. Those shots, I think
they looked through indo masked men rightfrom bank. Get on my way back
a wit like get my gun.It's robbery. We can't look at him.
I'm sorry, sheriff finded me aboveit. The bandits were motting their
horses as Toto and the sheriff raninto the street. Staff in the of
(05:55):
the them get ways. Taho fired, hitting one of the crooks. The
other crooks returned the fire and sentmen and women scurrying for cover. Taho
continued to shoot, and two moreof the bandits fell from their horses.
Meanwhile, the Sheriff's s gung flickedharmlessly. Gets Jimpy an ship, I
(06:16):
say, I'm hit. The sherifffell to the ground unconscious. Tahoe kept
firing after the retreating outlaws not allget way. At that moment, Ward
Maddock rushed from the office sherifol Rightas he spoke, one of the wounded
bandits fired from the ground to Tatto. The bullet went wild and caught Mannoc
in the shoulder. As the banditsdisappeared into the hills, frightened and curious
(06:41):
men began to emerge from their placesof cover, among them doctor White.
As the doctor examined Sheriff Fraser,other men appeared on the scene. Among
them was Deputy Bill Allen. Withgun drawn, he ran to where outlawed
taxed Garland and the other wounded bandedwere rising unsteadily to their feet. And
right way are you chaots? You'reunder arrest. Take him into the Sheriff's
office, put him in a celland bandage, and the doctor get to
(07:03):
them in his own good time.Come on here too, get moment the

Mick, Oh from me? Sorry, tappo, And withdrawing the bandanna from
Maddock's pocket, saw two objects fallfrom it's full onto the ground. Them

if bullets for my gunner left itat home, That's why I couldn't help
before you engine I'm Belle Allen,deputy in charge. Now that the sheriff's

That's what I'll do. Engine comeinto the Sheriff's office. Huh, I'd
like to ask you some questions.Uh. As Toto followed Deputy Bill Allen
into the Sheriff's office, a hastilyformed posse sent out in pursuit of the
bank roppers. Inside, Toto offereda silver bullet to the deputy and identified
(08:35):
himself. Allan was impressed. AsTonto prepared to leave it. He glanced
him at one of the two prisoners, a man having his arm banded.
The Indian frowned and fought m He'dthink we know that hombrey. Who is

Texts Garland was their top gunslinger too. Ke Mus happy. They don't

Sheriff Sam is a boy of ten. He got right in the robbers den
and gets his man because he knowshe's got go power. Frown Cheerios.

(12:16):
Lone Range during the grove near theend of the main street. The Indian
went to the Sheriff's office and returnedshortly was Count kiss, Honey, we
tell deffity you hear him say,come to doctor's office. I'm going to
leave that door open. You knowhow to get to the office. H
be right behind buildings, If notfar, it comes come. When the
(12:43):
Lone Ranger and Toto entered through therear door of doctor White's home and office,
W B. Bill Allen introduced himselfto the mask man. Then he
said, class, he hasn't returnedyet to prisoners. We have refused to
talk. Ow sure, Fraser Aye, He's come to and find Sha Lack
White having a hard time keeping himin bed. Doc's got him and Jason
(13:03):
Sterling in bed in the next room. The Sterling he's head of the bank.
The man has got him too,But come inside, masks Man.
When I told the cheff you'd behere, he could hardly wait. In
the room where Fraser and Sterling werebetted, the lone Ranger was introduced to
doctor White and the bank president.After a brief talk with the lawman,
(13:24):
the Masterman told of Tuntle's identifying texGarland and voiced the belief that the gang
was that of Jake Gibson and EddieBowen. Jason Sterling spoke, first,
you must be right. Just beforethey shot me, one of the bandits
called the other by name. Itwas Eddie jumpin tor stools. That was
Eddy Board. It must have been. Now lie back there, suff I'd
(13:46):
like to know something about this man, whose name is Madock. I can
tell you about him. He's oneof our best citizens. Madick's a ray
that reminds me. I want totalk to mass Man about something about your
empty revolver show. Yeah, how'dyou know about? Hello? Told me
about it, also about Maddox beingalone in your office. About you and
Tone talked, and there was amatter of the bullets and Maddox's trunk.
(14:09):
Quickly, Tuttle told up the bulletsand immediately a tide of recollections was loosed.
Say he maybe have something there.Maddock came into my office just a
little while before the robbery, andI'm sure my gun was loaded when I
left to talk to Tanno. Tannoand I started after crooks. He stumbled
against us. I thought then itwas an accident. He was trying to
keep you from shooting at his pals. Most like sure, even though he
(14:33):
emptied my gun. That reminds meof something I told him last week about
the money shipment we were to receiveat the bank today. And when the
stage coach was held up, hewas old, gentleman, gentlemen, please
hold on. Maybe all those thingsyou're surmising now are true. Then again,
they might be me coincidence. Idon't believe it. Now I start
thinking it must give the man thebenefit of the doubt. Man is presumed
(14:56):
to be innocent until proved guilty.Yes, doctor White, right, without
proof, nothing we say means anything. Let's find out if Maddock is guilty
or not. How does anyone knowwhere Maddock is now I finished treating him.
He said he was going back tohis ranch to rest good and listen,
please, I have a plan.It involves Maddock and the two men
(15:16):
in the jail house. Text Garlandand his partner, Honey, you figure
to tie them up. It's youwill tie up Allen, not them.
Huh. Let me explain sure ifI hope you will allow me to try.
The little ranger outlined a plan thatinvolved a great risk, but one
that also promised to pay off.Shortly after he'd finished, the posse returned
(15:39):
to town, and the leader reportedto Deputy Bill Allen. Here we drew
a blank. We call it thebalance of the Foothills. But it became
dark then and we lost their trail. There's nothing we can do now before
the war. Well, that's whereyou're wrong. Get the posse together.
I want to talk to them.They're gonna be getting a lot of action
tonight, Yes, sir, alot of action. Half an hour passed
(16:04):
before Deputy Bill Allen entered the Sheriff'soffice. He went to the cell room
and spoke to the man guarding TextGarland and his partner, go, I
need ma'am, I look after thesetwo. Thanks Bill, here's the keys.
I'll be back in an hour.The sullen outlaws in their cell ignored
Bill Allen. During the next tenminutes, he remained facing them, his
(16:26):
back to the door. Suddenly theysaw behind the deputy the figure of a
masked man emerged from the outer room. He held a gun in his hand
and he jammed it against Alan's back. All right, you freeze, Hey
what don't talk or I'll shoot good. I'll take your guns here, I
have it. Who are you,fell of the boys? Texts have come
to free you. You guard openthe cell door fast. Ye, yes,
(16:52):
they are well out boys like spell. Who are you anyway? Jacon
Edie sent me a text. Takethat guards, tie and belt and bind
his ankles and wrists. Sure leftto use his banda and the gag.
He's great text, Lefty, Weshould have known the boys wouldn't let us
stay here. There there you gonnashoot? You have the shots heard.
(17:18):
Don't be crazy. You must bethe pal Lady and Jake have here in
town, the one who set upthis job today. No, tax I'm
not that pal, but I'm takingyou to his place. When we leave
here. We're not going straight tothe idea or No. Tax I have
a message for here to give theMaddock mad dog. So that's the only
reasoning. See, how are wegonna get away from here? I have
two horses for you in the woodsbehind this place. We'll leave by the
(17:40):
rear door. Quant text, snufty, my smiling bandits left the building,
and within seconds Tottle entered the cellroom. He used his knife to cut
the bonds that tied Deputy Bill Allen, after first removing the gag. Thanks,
we go to Madick Ranch now,yes, your friends Leaden text and
(18:03):
left you. Then around about way, we'll be able to get to Mannox
before they do. Let's start onthe way to the Madic Branch house.
The lone rangers careful questioning resulted inmuch information from the unsuspecting outlaws. When
(18:23):
they reached a spot near the house, they stopped. The last man said,
thanks, lefty, I've done allI'm supposed to do. Do you
know your way to the hide outfrom here? Yeah? I do?
Aren't you going there with us?No? I have other plans. After
you've given my message to Maddock,go to the height out for yourself.
Well thanks, well, thanks,all right, we'll see you. The
(18:52):
lone ranger watched the outlaws right upto the main entrance of the ranch.
Then he circles to the rear theproperty and watched in the moonlight. He
saw a group of men move fromthe underbrush to the rear door of the
house. He recognized Deputy Bill Allenin the lead. Good they made it
(19:15):
happy. Hoo, come here,I see you got Bill Allen here in
time? Uh we keep watch?Did you come with crooks? Hollo?
What about the members of the possewho are to follow Texan Lefty when they

and then turned text spoke rapidly earlier, and Drake said it's you the pell
