Transcript
The Challenge of the Yukon! 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-modded police who preserved law and order in the Yukon during the Gold Rush of 98.
That was the year that brought over fifty thousand 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. In the light of the moon, the front of the bank at Doby City seemed quiet and empty. Then the small office at the back of the building, voices were raised in argument.
Sitting back in his chair behind a huge desk, the banker, Mac McDermott, watched the man facing him coolly. You better keep a civil tongue in your head, Sam. Erg, get a tongue in my head, all right.
Now I aim to use it. I hate seeing it more. He looks mighty determined to me. If what he says is true, if you're keeping more than half of the gold, man... What if it is true?
Who does the thinking for this outfit? Not any of you. You better start thinking then. Because if he gets to the multi it'll be jail for all of us. There's no reason why you should get to anybody.
If you see what I mean, try and stop him. He's mad, hoppin' mad. If it means goin' to jail himself, I'd lay money down. He'd go through with it just to make sure you get there.
