Wild West Weekly, No. 289, May 1, 1908
"Forbidden Pass"
is a narrow trail that serves as a shortcut between two mountain ranges. It saves travelers untold hours rather than going around one of the mountains. Ranchers, cowboys and pioneers have used the pass for decades, trouble-free. Unfortunately, a gang of enterprising outlaws have decided to begin charging a toll on those who would use the pass. This does not sit well with Young Wild West and his comrades, and even though first one and then another of his comrades are first captured, most of them manage to escape unharmed.
Most
of them!
