A zombie gives Donald a poisoned doll that was intended for Uncle Scrooge, who looked like Donald when the doll was given to the Zombie some seventy years before.

Notes:
Art submitted on March 3, 1949. Story contains info on Scrooge's younger days. Comment: "On the first and twenty-second pages of this story, Barks' editors substituted "done for" for "dead." However, "dead" was left unchanged on the sixth page." Comment and story synopsis by Michael Barrier from "Carl Barks and the Art of the Comic Book" (1982).
