Tonto's horse in stories involving The Lone Ranger (5)

I believe the answer is:

scout

(Other definitions for scout that I've seen before include "One searches for and recruits talented people" , "Reconnoitre" , "Member of organisation for boys" , "Soldier on a reconnaissance mission" , "Member of a youth movement" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
