02:39You made good time, Yak.
02:41How long you wait?
02:42Oh, I got here last night.
02:44What'd you find out?
02:46More fun.
02:47Well, that's one way to look at it.
02:49But there's been two sheriffs killed in Little Rock.
02:52It's our job to find out who did it.
02:54We do them.
02:55Well, I reckon we better get started.
02:57Beat him to the hold, then.
03:16Gentlemen, I've called this meeting that you may all know Al Davis.
03:43He's to be sworn in this afternoon as sheriff of this county.
03:52Mr. Davis, I feel that we should acquaint you with the fact that this vicinity is being terrorized by a band of outlaws ruled by a man whom they call the Shadow.
04:03He's a very clever man.
04:05Many traps have been set for him, but he's always evaded them.
04:09Our cattle are stolen night after night.
04:11He has absolutely no regard for human life.
04:15Stagecoaches are held up and robbed.
04:17The driver's shot.
04:40Well, looks like we're going to get through this time, Dave.
05:10You stay out of sight and follow me.
06:10Don't look back.
06:24Drop that gun and keep driving.
06:40Oh.
07:09You meet me in town.
07:16Throw down that bag.
07:18You're too late, a lone rider beat you to it.
08:49Hey, look, boys.
08:51Something's wrong.
09:07Hey, what's happened?
09:08What's the matter?
09:10You better get him to a doctor, boys.
09:11Quick.
09:18Where can I find Mr. Matlock?
09:20He's my uncle.
09:21I'll get him for you, miss.
09:22Thanks.
09:24Well, miss, you had quite an exciting ride.
09:26I certainly did.
09:28And gentlemen, map up.
09:30Map up.
09:31The stage was held up.
09:32Joe was dead and Dave was wounded.
09:34There's a girl on the stage who claims to be your niece.
09:36She's asking for you.
09:39Okay.
09:48So you are...
09:49I'm Anita, Uncle Matt.
09:51My dear, this is certainly a pleasant surprise.
09:54Tell us, what has happened?
09:56Well, I don't know exactly.
09:58I was heading for town when I saw the runaway.
10:00I happened to be close, so I caught it.
10:03This young lady can probably tell you more than I can.
10:07Well, first we were held up by a lone rider.
10:09And then shortly after, two men held us up again.
10:12And they shot the guard and the driver,
10:14and then the horses ran away.
10:16And this gentleman caught them.
10:18And I'm mighty grateful, too.
10:20And so am I.
10:23You see, Davis, it's things like this that happen every day.
10:37Look.
10:39See that smoke?
10:52The bullet came straight on.
10:54But from where?
10:56That's just the way the other one came.
10:59I don't know.
11:01The bullet came straight on.
11:03But from where?
11:05That's just the way the other man was killed.
11:08I reckon this is the end of law and order.
11:10Won't nobody run for sheriff now.
11:13If it's just the same with you folks,
11:16I'll take this job as sheriff.
11:22They say you can see the whole street.
11:25Me here shocked.
11:27Look quick.
11:28See no one.
11:29Only smoke.
11:32And suddenly, mighty strength.
11:35Huh.
11:47I'm sure those are the hombres that held up the stage.
11:50Wait here.
11:59I'll be back.
12:30Don't even explain, boys.
12:32I know everything that has happened.
12:34Keep your eyes on this new sheriff.
12:36Watch every move and report to me in the morning.
12:41Don't even explain, boys.
12:43I know everything that has happened.
12:45Keep your eyes on this new sheriff.
12:47Watch every move and report to me in the morning.
13:10Keep your eyes on this new sheriff.
13:13Watch every move and report to me in the morning.
13:17Don't even explain, boys.
13:19I know everything that has happened.
13:22Watch every move and report to me in the morning.
13:26Don't even explain, boys.
13:28Watch every move and report to me in the morning.
13:32Don't even explain, boys.
13:34Watch every move and report to me in the morning.
13:38Watch every move and report to me in the morning.
14:08Watch every move and report to me in the morning.
14:38Watch every move and report to me in the morning.
15:08Watch every move and report to me in the morning.
15:38It's the stage bag.
15:57Do you suppose he just found it?
15:59I don't know.
16:01But here's where we get it.
16:03Two.
16:16Huh.
16:17Two men follow.
16:19Look through glass.
16:21Ah.
16:22Well, I figured as much.
16:24Here, take my horse and meet me at the express office.
16:27Keep this money.
16:56Keep this money.
17:26Keep this money.
17:46It's empty.
17:49Where did he go?
17:50I don't know.
17:53Look.
18:07I know we got him.
18:08We can't get far.
18:10Come on, let's find him.
18:39Oh, you stay here and watch.
18:41Reckon the express company will be glad to get this money back.
19:04We killed him and saw him pick up the money bags.
19:07Park here shot him off his horse, but we couldn't find him.
19:10He just rode in town and went to the express office.
19:13Probably with the dough.
19:15This is twice you've gummed things up.
19:17Another fluke like this and you two guys keep right.
19:20It's ten to one he knows who followed him.
19:22So you better get back to the hideout and stay there till I set for you.
19:42All right, Jack, let's find out where they'll lead us.
20:11All right.
20:40All right.
21:08Loco Frank.
21:10He'd cut a man's throat for a dollar.
21:16And Fleiss Burton.
21:18A lifer from Walla Walla.
21:27And there's Chuck of Walla Red.
21:29He's wanted in every state on the border.
21:36Slippery Williams and Spike Morgan.
21:40What a nest of hornets.
21:43Matlock's ranch only two miles away.
21:46Wonder if he knows what's near him.
21:48Maybe we tell him.
21:50No, it might spoil our chances of getting them.
22:08Well, my dear, what do you think of the ranch?
22:11Oh, fine.
22:12But I haven't seen any cattle.
22:14There are no cattle.
22:16They were all stolen several weeks ago.
22:18That's why I've tried to bring law and order to this valley.
22:21Seems useless.
22:23Three men have been mysteriously shot down.
22:25And the outlaw activity continues.
22:27Well, can't you appeal to the government?
22:29The ranchmen have written repeatedly, but nothing has happened.
22:32Well, where is the foreman and your boys?
22:35They were in with the rustlers and left with the cattle.
22:37And you live here alone?
22:39Yes, except for old Jake, the cook.
22:50I'm going over to Matlock's.
22:52Now you stay here and keep an eye on whoever passes.
23:09Under the circumstances, I think we should try and dispose of this ranch.
23:13Or at least let me buy your half.
23:15This is certainly no place for a woman.
23:18Well, I quite agree with you there, Uncle Matt.
23:21I didn't expect to find it like this.
23:24How many per supper, Mr. Matlock?
23:26Just the three of us, Jake.
23:28Thank you, sir.
23:29Here comes someone, Uncle Matt.
23:41Well, it's our new sheriff.
23:47Come right in, Mr. Travers.
23:49How do you do, Miss Matlock?
23:51How do you do?
23:52Just wanted to tell you about my good luck.
23:54I found the express money near the scene of the holdup.
23:57Well, that is good luck.
23:59Did you see any sign of the robbers?
24:01Well, I can't make any promises right now, Mr. Matlock.
24:06But I hope to have the Shadow and his gang behind the bars in a very few days.
24:10Well, my boy, I certainly wish you luck.
24:13But I'm afraid that never can happen.
24:15The Shadow is clever.
24:17His men are the most desperate criminals ever banded together.
24:20How do you know?
24:22By the cold-blooded manner in which they operate.
24:26Oh, I see.
24:28But I still think I can do it.
24:30Well, I certainly hope you do.
24:32Will you excuse me a moment?
24:39I suppose you're glad to be home again, Miss Matlock.
24:42Well, this isn't exactly my home.
24:44In fact, it's the first time I've seen the place.
24:46You see, my father and Uncle Matt owned this ranch.
24:50And two years ago, Dad was killed.
24:53I inherited his house.
24:55Uncle Matt has offered to buy me out.
24:57He says this is no place for a woman.
24:59Oh.
25:01He says strange things happen here at night.
25:05There are only the three of us.
25:07Old Jake, Uncle Matt, and myself.
25:10I'm almost afraid.
25:14Hello.
25:15The sheriff will soon be leaving Matlock's ranch.
25:17Wait for him at the crossroads.
25:19There's a girl at the ranch.
25:21No harm must come to her, but scare her away tonight.
25:26All right.
25:27I'll have the boys attend to it.
25:32And don't be afraid to use it.
25:34I won't be.
25:45Won't you stay for dinner, Mr. Travers?
25:46No, thanks.
25:47I have to be going.
25:48I'll see you in the morning.
25:50Have a good day, Miss Matlock.
25:51Goodbye.
26:12A fine fellow, isn't he?
26:13Yeah.
26:15It's too bad that he's sheriff.
26:42He'll be all right.
27:11It's all right.
27:21It's all right.
27:31It's all right.
27:59It's all right.
28:28It's all right.
28:41You've always been a little too careless with your shooting irons, so we'll just send you
29:05up for attempted murder.
29:31We'll be out of here by noon tomorrow.
29:34Well, thanks for the information.
29:56It must be a secret entrance.
29:59I distinctly heard a third voice.
30:04That's a funny place for a safe.
30:14Here it is.
30:15It's a fake safe.
30:18This must be where the shadow gives his orders from.
30:32Well, this is interesting.
30:39It's a tunnel.
30:40Come on, let's see where it leads.
31:09Oh, what do you think?
31:25They've hollered off this old stump.
31:29This is where those mysterious shots came from.
31:33Through this hole, a man could cover the entire northern part of the street.
31:40We've got work to do tonight, Jack.
31:42The first thing is to find a cross-cut saw.
32:34What do you think?
33:02A cross-cut saw.
33:31Oh!
