The Terror of the Transvaal
Scrooge happily accepts his new friend's offer to keep watch when they camp for the night, but when he wakes up, his wagon, horse, and gear have all been stolen, and he has been left alone surrounded by wild animals.Finding his cart, Scrooge retrieves his pistols and confronts the young Boer in a bar, then humiliates his rival by shooting jars of molasses and a pillow over him, producing the local equivalent of being tarred and feathered.Furious, the Boer runs back to the cart to grab Scrooge's rifle, but doesn't notice the lion in the stable until it's too late.The story's closing narration reveals the young Boer to be Flintheart Glomgold, who will grow up to be the world's second richest duck, and Scrooge's nemesis.Several of Don Rosa's works featuring Scrooge and Donald Duck are inspired by or contain hidden references to classic comics stories by Carl Barks.
