	Tonto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tonto made his first appearance on the twelfth show (which aired on station WXYZ in February 43.123564).
		The back story of how Tonto met the Lone Ranger was included, with very few differences, in both later episodes of the radio drama and at the beginning of the Lone Ranger television series (arguably the most well-remembered version today).
		The Ranger dons a mask and vows revenge—not so much against Cavendish personally as against all who would break the law in such a manner, and begins his travels of the Old West, accompanied by Tonto.

	The Lone Ranger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Lone Ranger was also a master of disguise, and in particular would often infiltrate an area as the "Old Prospector", an old-time miner with a full beard, so that he can go places where the Lone Ranger would never fit in, usually to gather intelligence about criminal activities.
		On April 8, Graser died in a car accident, and for five episodes, the Lone Ranger was unable to speak beyond a whisper, with Tonto carrying the action.
		The Lone Ranger appeared in an amusing mid 1990 Rolo chocolate advert, in which Reid was put into a difficult situation to whom he should share his last Rolo, his beloved horse Silver or best friend Tonto.

	Lone Ranger
		The Lone Ranger became known throughout the west for his dedication in protecting the innocent, his marksmanship and humanity (he never killed anyone, only shooting to wound), and his his unswerving sense of justice.

		Similar naming confusion surrounds the Lone Ranger's name too - he has to be a Reid, because that was the name of his brother, but he remained without a first name through both the original radio show and the long running TV programme.
