Synopsis

The robbers replaced their worn-out ponies with Red's purebreds. The Sheriff's posse's ponies are spent. Red and Little Beaver follow sign until they lose it, then head in opposite directions. Beaver follows a hunch, finds the robbers, but is outnumbered. He takes refuge, through the underwater entrance, in a beaver lodge under the beaver dam. He talks to them in Navajo hoping they won't bite him. By and by, he fetches Red, who beards the robbers, and with Little Beaver's help captures them. Beaver wonders how much of the reward his beaver friends earned.
