Synopsis

Someone is trying to scare a retired lawman out of his estate and steal his silver. Dick Tracy and Hemlock Holmes head out West to find out who is behind the events. It turns out that Stooge Villa and Mumbles are frightening the old man with film and recorded images of ghosts, witches, cannons and other things. But Tracy breaks into the house and exposes the scam. As the two cops take the villains away, the former cop reveals that he is The Lone Stranger, and that his "Silver" is actually his horse.
