The Challenge of the Yukon! The Wonder Dog King, Swishtus and Strongest of Eskimo lead dogs, lays as 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 North West mounted police who preserved law and order in the new North West Country,
where the greed for wealth and power led to frequent violence in bloodshed. But in spite of the odds against them, Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog king met that challenge, and Justice Rule triumphant. In a small, garishly furnished walk-up apartment on a nondescript Seattle street, two men sat talking.
Blackie Lewis was the older of the two, and his face wore an expression of impatience as he glanced from the cards he was cutting with practice fingers. They tell you blackie, there's not a thing I can do about it.
He won't change his mind. You said that before. You've been getting your cut on everything. It's easy money, kid. Sure, sure it is. It was. Because I'm going with him. It was. What's got into you anyway?
You going sentimental? So the two of you have stuck together all this time. You're from, ain't you? Both of you and the end have made your own way. You don't know that sap-a-thing. Don't call that a yes-sap-lacky.
Maybe he doesn't see a lot of things the way I do. But he's not dumb, see. You think that stuff in the newspaper is on the level? Huh? Oh, oh, yes, sure I do. I brought a ton of the real McCoy, you know, that boat didn't I?
Just think blackie. That kind of go. I am fakin'. I never heard of the place before, but there's no reason why we couldn't. Couldn't what? Yeah, maybe I was wrong. Things had meant so good here lately.
