Confederate Money (5/20/1938)

This episode introduces two of my favorite recurring characters - Bolivar Bates and Hacksaw Hastings (introduced as Hacksaw Hawkins). Two old Confederate soldiers, pockets full of now-worthless Confederate cash, are looking for a way to get some real money and avoid starving. The Lone Ranger and Tonto take a liking to the two old-timers and help them get jobs as tax collectors. Will all that real money prove to be too much temptation for a couple of poor old men?
