Jim agrees with the idea and makes the silver bullets. Thinking that lead bullets would be just as effective, Jim asks why such an unusual request John explains that the silver bullets are to be used not as a weapon, but a symbol, a symbol of justice to remind himself and others that life, like silver, has value and is not to be wasted. John tells Jim about the ambush and his intent to become the Lone Ranger and then makes an unusual request for Jim to forge silver bullets for him. Once recovered from his wounds, John hires an old friend, a retired Ranger named Jim, to work the mine for him.
When John declares that he'll be the Lone Ranger, Tonto vows to help him.ĭuring the ambush, Dan confided in John that his wife and son were coming from the East, and urged John to look after them in the event of his death he also expected John to leave the Rangers and work the secret silver mine they owned together, and to see that his family gets his share, which John promised. Now with a strengthening determination to bring Cavendish and his gang to justice for their crimes, John decides that his name must remain buried with his brother and his colleagues and resolves to assume a secret identity and wear a disguise it was Tonto who suggested that John wear a mask for a disguise, which he made out of cloth from his brother's vest. John realizes that he will be a marked man once Cavendish finds out that he survived, but Tonto reassures him that he made six graves while burying only five men, so the outlaws will think John died with the others. Tonto then made the observation that John was the only Ranger left, calling him the "lone ranger". When John recognized Tonto, he remembered the name the Indian gave him: " Kemosabe", which meant 'trusty scout'. As it was near dark, Cavendish's plan was to open fire on the Rangers as they rode through and keep shooting until they were sure the Rangers were all dead.Ĭavendish was convinced that all of the Rangers were killed in the ambush, but John survived, nursed back to health after being found by an Indian named Tonto, who remembered John as he had once saved Tonto's life when they were boys. Assisted by a tracker named Collins (who was secretly employed by Cavendish), the Rangers were lulled into thinking that the gang were camped in an area on the far end of a canyon called Bryant's Gap, but Collins had lied to the Rangers Cavendish and his men were actually waiting in ambush on the rim on both sides of the gap. Texas Ranger John Reid and his older brother, Captain Dan Reid, were part of a group of six Rangers in pursuit of a gang of dangerous outlaws led by Butch Cavendish. When the Ranger, the younger brother of Captain Reid, regains his strength, he decides to disguise himself with a mask and become the Lone Ranger.(Although there have been several differing versions of the Lone Ranger's origin over the years, the basic story has remained the same.) Tonto tends to the Ranger's wounds and makes six graves so the outlaws will believe all the Rangers are dead. He discovers this Ranger is the same man who helped Tonto when his village was destroyed when they were both boys. Later that evening, a native american named Tonto comes upon the scene and finds one Ranger still barely alive. Cavendish then goes about his business, believing all six Rangers dead. Collins, secretly working for Cavendish, leads the Rangers into an ambush in a narrow pass known as Bryant's Gap.
A tracker named Collins leads a group of six Texas Rangers, led by Captain Reid, after them. Butch Cavendish and his band of outlaws are terrorizing the West.
