The Secret in the Hill

With action and suspense out of the Old West comes the most famous hero of them all. Hapalong Cassidy, starring William Boyd. The Ring of the Silver Spurs heralds the most amazing man ever to ride the prairies of the early West.

Hapalong Cassidy, the same hoppy you cheer in motion pictures, and the same California you've left at a million times. Raw courage and quick shooting have built a legend around this famous hero. Hapalong is a name to be feared, respected, and admired.

For this great cowboy rides the trails of adventure and excitement. William Boy does huffle on Cassidy and and decline as California. What's our story this time, Hoppy? It's one that I feel mighty lucky I'm alive and able to tell, because it's about a time California and I had our narrow escape.

We call it the secret in the hill. Early one morning we were riding through the Chenango Pass Country when we noticed a sign nailed to a fence pole. I pulled off the trail to read it.

I don't like this California. Listen to what this says. $500 reward. Wanted, dead or alive. Killer of Fred Benson. Son of Wade Benson of Janango Pass by order sheriff. If they got a reward up for him, he's probably run halfway to hella-lu-y by now.

Maybe so. But he might still be around playing possum. I don't know, Hoppy. Seems only reasonable for a killer to be mousse if he got the chance. Eh, depends on how and why the victim was killed.

If we find the reason for Fred Benson's murder, we'll find his killer. We will? Sure. You mean you want us to find a reason? We don't know why a murderer we don't know. Killed a man we don't know.
