The Challenge of the Yukon. Low underdog kings, swiftest and 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 Mounted Police, who preserved law and order in the new Northwest country,
country where the greed for wealth and power led to frequent violence and bloodshed. But in spite of the odds against them, Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog king met that challenge and justice ruled triumphant.
The early darkness of the North country had fallen when Sergeant Preston of the Northwest Mounted Police stopped his dog team beside the trading post of old Sandy McDonald near Dawson City. Open! Open! This big lead, Dog King.
The mighty end of the store and was greeted by the old scotchman, who was a friend of many years standing. Hello, sir. It's good to see you again, Maddy. How are you, Sandy? It's been six months since I've laid eyes on you with that fine animal king.
Yes, we've been away a long time. Sit your doom and water yourself a spend. You've got hot tea, Eddie. Well, thanks, Sandy. Oh, that's fair. It feels good. I've been on the trails this morning.
Just put your park on that chair and make yourself comfortable. Alright. I'm getting that on boy. Ah, that you've been busy miles. Trapped them from one end of the territory to the other. Yeah? Alright.
Nothing like black steel on tawami or insides on a day like this. Right you are, Zendy. Well, how's the trading business since I last saw you? Well, I can't complain. Oh, there will now be much do-one to the laddies coming with their quarters in the spring.
