Transcript
The Challenge of the Yukon! Un-King! Un-You-Husties! King, the swiftest, strongest of Eskimo lead dogs, places 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-motted 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 preserving the right.
The challenge of the North was answered, and justice ruled triumphant. It was early morning, and in Will Conover's small cabin, two men faced each other. Will, quiet, and determined. This is the very calmness, the cold, cunning, and feton's eyes that met death for the man across from him.
Oh, you was reaching for that gun, Will. Why you? Oh. Just a little bit too late. If you'd have reached sooner, you might have saved your gold, but I didn't plan it that way. Now to get the dust.
Murder. But nobody will know cast threatens behind it. A careful search revealed the precious dust hidden under a board in the floor. Pocketing it, Cass left the cabin and drove his sled back to town where he kept a general store, stocking the provisions and equipment needed by the miners and trappers who came to Aberdeen for supplies.
He left his sled outside the store as he opened the door. Hi there Cass! What's your idea of the sled? Oh, hello Mark! Close the door, will you? Yeah, sure. Go somewhere, you have time to send me some flowers.
