Jay Silverheels (born Harold Jay Smith; May 26, 1912 – March 5, 1980, Mohawk) [1] was a Canadian actor and athlete, descended from three Iroquois nations. [2] He was well known for his role as Tonto, the Native American companion of the Lone Ranger [3] [4] in the American Western television series The Lone Ranger.
Tonto first rode a horse named "White Feller" (White Fella/Fellah). When the 1938 Republic movie serial The Lone Ranger was being filmed, it was thought that having two white horses would be confusing, so the producers made "White Feller" a pinto horse, presumably on the theory that, being partly white, a pinto could still be named "White Feller".
