I added the info on Tonto's horse, White Feller, and Scout's origin from the radio episodes "Four Day Ride" and "Border Dope Smuggling." I don't know the accuracy of the other information, about Silver returning from Wild Horse Canyon with Scout. I have not heard any such episode, but I haven't heard every episode, so I left it for someone else to decide. The story of Silver's origin is accurate, except the episode that aired September 9, 1938 was "Trouble at Fort Gardner," and it did not deal with Silver's origin. Michael.douglas.dean
I have a vague recollection from when I was very young about Silver returning with Scout. Perhaps that is why I was moved reading it just now.
"The Lone Ranger" has doubtless been parodied, spoofed, burlesqued, satirized (etc) hundreds of times. A few of the more-notable ones should be mentioned, particularly the classic Stan Freberg commercial in which The Lone Ranger and Tonto appear, played by Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels.
This article's "fictional character biography" section, first paragraph, states that the LR's name was John Ried, but the "Lone Ranger's name" section, first line, seems to refute that.
