Transcript

The challenge of the Yukon. It's King, swift distance, strongest lead dog of the North Country, blazing the trail for Sergeant Preston of the North West, Mothet Police, in his relentless pursuit of lawbreakers. And King!

He'll discover it in the Yukon, a stampede to the Klondike in the greedy race for ditches. Now back to the days of the Gold Rush, when Sergeant Preston and his Wonder Dog King battled through storm and snow to preserve law and order, As they mapped the challenge of the Yukon.

Jed Norris came into his isolated trading post and slammed the door behind him. The tall, slightly stuked man had a worried expression on his clean cut features as he looked at his 18-year-old daughter, Mary.

Yeah, honey. Let me help you into that court. Bearskin's not exactly lightweight, Dad. It's a coat weighs nearly as much as I do. Yes, but it keeps you good and warm, though. Oh, and the dogs are already, I'm gonna hitch to the sled and set the travel.

Thanks, Dan. Oh, I wish you didn't have to make these trips alone. It's a hard run every two weeks into pine crossing to pick up the mail and supply. The mail alone is worth the trip.

I'm always happy to get news from the outside. I like visiting the McDuffs and buying the supplies. It's kind of lonesome way out here with Reneer's cabin, the only one between here and town. A fine neighbor, he is.

Well, don't you worry about me. I can't help but worry with you on the trail alone four hours each way. Dad, Rat, this bad leg of mine. I wish I could go with you. I'll be all right.
