Champion the Wonder Horse - The Saddle Tramp

Our story begins with an old coot travelling via mule from one place to another looking for free food and a bed for the night. The old man is this story is called Will. He and his mule have an arrangement whereby everytime he laughs out loud, the mule has been taught to run far away. The duo come across a sign saying "Sandy North's Ranch 3 Miles." Will fancies some rest and food for a couple of days and starts to think up ways he could achieve this. Whilst he and the mule are practising the laughing and running routine, Rebel the dog appears and chases Will up a tree. Champion then arrives on the scene and further scares Will. Finally Ricky arrives and calls Rebel and Champ off. He befriends the old man and invites him back to the ranch. Uncle Sandy is out on the ranch chasing outlaws. He finally meets Will and allows him to stay for supper whilst Will entertains Ricky with stories about this bravery. Sandy knows the old man is telling tall tales but Ricky believes every word of it and wants Will to stay for longer to learn more. Will tells Ricky of the time he chased off an entire group of Apache Indians simply by putting on a Grizzly bearskin that he took from a bear he killed with his bear hands.

A sign is nailed to a tree stating 3 miles to the Sandy North ranch Will decides it's supper time Rebel chases Will up a tree

At the end of supper Will knows he will have to return to his mule but manages to start laughing loudly when he recounts the Grizzly bear story. The mule hears the laughing and runs off into the night. This deprives Will of his transport for the night and hence Sandy invites him to stay in the house. The next morning Will starts to pretend to be ill with a sore knee and hence he is unable to go after the cattle rustlers with Sandy. Uncle Sandy goes off on horseback followed by Rebel. The pair soon come across the bad guys who are attempting to steal an entire herd of cattle. Sandy goes charging in with his gun drawn but there are three bad guys and Sandy is shot in the arm. He falls from his horse and the thieves steal this as well. Rebel goes back to the ranch house for help (bit like Skippy) and Ricky rides out to help help his uncle. Pretty soon Sandy is back at the ranch and confined to bed as he has lost a lot of blood. The local town Sheriff tells Sandy that a Federal Marshal is arriving soon to deal with the cattle rustlers.
