Transcript
The Challenge of the Yukon King, the swiftest, strongest of Eskimo lead dogs, blazes the trail through storm and snow for Sergeant Preston As he meets the Challenge of the Yukon Sergeant Preston was typical of the small band of Northwest Motard Police who preserved law and order in the Yukon during the Gold Rush of 98
That was the year that brought over 50,000 men swarming into the Klondike region and the greed for gold led to frequent violence and bloodshed. But in spite of the odds against them, the force preserved a splendid record in maintaining the right.
The challenge of the North was answered, and justice ruled triumphant. The Buckeye Bank was silent and dark, the contrast to the lighted buildings that lined the single street of the settlement. Boisterous miners and trappers pouring into the fays and dance halls never noticed the two figures slip from the shadows at the back of the bank. Easy enough. No time for a slip up.

I told you we'd have to work this job from the inside, didn't I? The old man's going to be mighty surprised in the morning when he finds his cashier gone and his safe empty. Yes, him and them miners. I always did
say a man was a fool to put his dust in the bank, just invite somebody to walk in and help themselves like we did. And what's your figure we got? There's more than $50,000 worth of gold right here. Added to what I took from the till yesterday. Yeah, and it was a nice profit.
