"Les Frères Bishop" (Cap'tain Swing) p. 3-66 in Cap'tain
Swing, no. 122 (Mai 2004). -- Summary: Supplies are low at
Fort Ontario, so Swing, Mister Bluff and Hibou Lugubre head
for town to see their supplier, Judge Davenport. On the way
they find at least four freight wagons destroyed, and they
assume the wagons had contained food for the fort. Another
traveler passing by says it was done by the Bishop
brothers, who for some reason only attack shipments owned
by Davenport. While Swing talks to Judge Davenport, Bluff
and Hibou try to get food from Davenport's cook.
Unfortunately Bluff has brought his dog Pouik along. Pouik
chases a cat, trips the cook, and steals a sausage. The men
never get fed, which supplies a comedic subplot to the
story. A young woman named Judith Plummer is working for
Davenport, who says he took her in because the Bishop
brothers killed her mother. One of the Bishops, Andrew, is
captured, and both Swing and Judith seem to recognize him.
Swing realizes he owes the man for saving his life, though
he never knew his name. Judith, we discover, is in love
with Andrew and they were engaged to be married before her
mother died. Davenport sentences Andrew to die the next
morning, so Swing breaks him out of the lockup in the
night. This leads to the unraveling of Davenport's schemes.
Actually it was "Judge" Davenport who killed Mrs. Plummer
and the father of the Bishop boys. Davenport framed the
Bishops to get control of their freight business. Finally
Davenport sends a wagon full of English soldiers to Fort
Ontario to try to capture it. The Fort is warned on time,
but Davenport is shown to be a traitor as well as an
assassin and a thief. With Davenport dead and the English
routed, Andrew and Judith will marry and the transport
business will be back in the hands of the Bishop family. --

"Le Héros Déshonoré" (Cap'tain Swing) p. 3-66 in Cap'tain
Swing, no. 113 (Août 2003). -- Summary: Fort Brix is under
siege, and food and ammunition are almost gone. Captain
Swing sneaks in through a passageway only he knows, to try
to encourage the defenders. Only two more days and
reenforcements will arrive. Colonel Hopkins is in despair,
though. If the British actually push their advantage the
fort won't last two hours. Hopkins wonders how Swing got
past the British lines and Swing explains, but somebody
overhears. That night a silver platter is thrown out the
window of Fort Brix with the details of the secret passage
scratched on it. The British sneak in. Only Captain Swing,
the Colonel's daughter Vivian, and her fiancé Bertie
Wilkins survive. Swing is badly wounded. He tells a general
investigating the case that he only told Colonel Hopkins
about the passage, and although the Colonel is dead he is
disgraced as a traitor. Capt. Swing takes several weeks to
recover from his wounds. Then, at an inn, Swing
accidentally finds the silver platter because of a
confusion of luggage with another guest. The confusion is
soon corrected and Swing doesn't know the significance of
the platter, but Vivian and Bertie chance to come in as he
is holding it. Bertie recognizes it, and since he signed
the message with his initials decides that Swing must
already know about his treachery. Bertie's efforts to
recover the platter are to no avail, of course, because the
other customer has it and has gone on his way. Swing is
knocked out by a mysterious man searching his room (it was
Bertie) and is invited to Vivian's place to recover. Vivian
seems to have a slave named Sam, or at least a very
obsequious Black servant and cook. Bertie hires a man to
kill Swing, and has Mister Bluff (Swing's sidekick) taken
hostage. The ransom note demands the silver plate, but
Swing doesn't know what that's about. Swing is being held
at gunpoint by the kidnappers when Pouik (Bluff's dog)
brings him a pistol and joins the fray. Hibou (another
sidekick) turns up as well, and Bluff is soon freed. The
man with the platter knows its significance, and returns to
ask Vivian for 200 guineas to prove her father's innocence.
Bertie Wilkins gets to the man first, stabs him, and takes
the platter. The man lives long enough to explain it to
Vivian and Swing. Swing finds Wilkins trying to bury the
platter, and the game is up. The Hopkins name is cleared,
and Vivian is single again. -- Call no.: PN6748.C336no.113

Bluff, Mister.
"Le Livre Maudit" (Cap'tain Swing) p. 3-66 in Cap'tain
Swing, no. 114 (Sept. 2004). -- Summary: The Redcoat
soldiers arrest a man in the street who complains loudly of
his fate, but when he is taken to the commanding officer it
turns out he's an undercover agent, a traitor turning over
a list of patriots' names. Lord Marmaduke Langsburry, an
emisary direct from the King in London, witnesses the
transaction and asks to see the list. Lord Langsburry
pockets the list, then removes his beard to reveal that he
is indeed Captain Swing. In short order the traitor is
dead, and the fine carriage that brought "Langsburry" has
left at a gallop. The British soldiers take off after the
carriage, making it easy for Swing to sneak out of the
headquarters to hide with his old friend Professor
Griffith. The professor is puzzling over an old Rosicrucian
book he bought from an antiquarian book dealer in
Strasbourg. The reading isn't going well since it's
Greco-Latino-Hebraic in runic characters. By chance, a
soldier has seen Swing enter Griffith's house, so the
soldiers come and the two have to flee. Also there is a
sinister-looking bald man lurking in the house looking for
a chance to steal the book. The professor takes the book
with him, and they ride to Fort Ontario. Betty sets the
professor up with a place to study. The creepy bald man
returns to his home as well, on Black Skull Mountain, which
is not far from Fort Ontario. He thinks awhile, then sends
one of his superstitious Black servants, named Mumbulah, to
go to Fort Ontario on Lake Ontario and retrieve the book,
no matter whose life it costs. Meanwhile Griffith suddenly
figures out the book, and it makes him crazy. He babbles
nonsense and ancient-sounding words, and tries to kill
Mister Bluff's dog, Pouik, by hanging it by the neck with a
rope. Griffith's raving is so violent they have to tie him
up. Mumbulah arrives at the fort and tries to steal the
book, but gets locked up for his trouble. Hibou thinks
sorcery is involved. Taking the book, Swing rides out from
Lake Ontario for a few hours to a mountain cave full of
books, bottles and a smoking brazier. Swing asks the wise
man there to take a look at the book, and the wise man is
interested. He says to come back in a few days when he's
studied the book. Meanwhile, the strange bald man from
Black Skull Mountain shows up at Fort Ontario asking for
lodging. As he enters both Griffith and Mumbulah can be
heard raving from their respective lockups, and Mister
Bluff wonders if it might be the weather causing it. Hibou
says that Indians lose their spirit in captivity too, and
in sympathy lets Mumbulah out for some exercise. Mumbulah
sees his master and immediately commits suicide by jumping
from a tower. Then the bald man hypnotizes Betty from
behind without her having even seen him. He tells her to go
to town and buy a blue dress, and when she leaves the fort
on foot he kidnaps her. When Swing comes back from
delivering the book to his guru, a ransom note is found.
The Rosicrucian book must be brought to Black Skull
Mountain in exchange for Betty's life. Swing, Bluff and
Hibou retrace Swing's path to retrieve the book, and arrive
just as the wise man has deciphered it. He also starts
raving and has to be tied up. The bald man gets excited
when he mentally feels the book approaching, the book that
was "stolen from them at Tubingen." The man tries to
capture Swing rather than release Betty, and in the
struggle the book and the whole house are burned to ashes.
At that moment both of the raving scholars are released
from their spells miles apart. They get together at Fort
Ontario and agree that the destruction of the book was a
good thing. The one from the mountain, the one that Swing
calls "master," quotes Shakespeare: "There are more things
in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosopy."

Bluff, Mister.
"Spartacus" (Cap'tain Swing) p. 3-66 in Cap'tain Swing, no.
112 (Juillet 2003). -- Summary: A group of Redcoats
commanded by a Lieutenant Abbott stops at an inn where
Bluff and Hibou are waiting to meet Cap'tain Swing. The
innkeeper, Simeon, has had a run-in with the bad-tempered
Abbott before, so he runs off when Bluff offers to play
host. Abbott has a mysterious small chest with him that he
seems to be guarding with exaggerated care. Hibou and Bluff
are curious, so Hibou ties some pans to Pouik's tail to
distract Abbott, and Bluff switches the contents of the
chest for some stinky cheese. Meanwhile, a few miles away,
Swing is talking to Madame Meyer, a lady from whom the
British have just stolen a small chest of family jewels.
Also her husband has been missing for three days. When
Swing arrives at the inn the English soldiers have gone. He
and Bluff look at the jewels and Swing sends Bluff and
Hibou to return them to Madame Meyer and to look for her
husband, while Swing continues on his previous mission for
Dr. Strong. Another guest at the inn overhears and steals
the jewels. Meanwhile the Governor has presented the box of
stinky cheese to his wife as a gift, and Lt. Abbott is in
deep trouble. Three days later Swing hears a troubador
singing a ballad of Spartacus, and Swing asks the singer
where he can find Spartacus. The singer says he might not
even exist, but another audience member says to ask the
Redcoats, who have been humiliated by Spartacus a thousand
times. Swing meets Spartacus in a bar, goes to his hideout,
and asks him for Dr. Strong to join an American attack on
the British. Hibou and Bluff, thanks to Pouik's tracking
ability, arrive at the hideout at the same time on the
trail of the jewel thief. It turns out to be the wife of
Spartacus who stole the jewels in order to buy arms for the
resistance. It turns out also that Spartacus is just a
bandit and he is also holding Mr. Meyer captive. Swing
frees Meyer, returns the jewels, and kidnaps Spartacus for
trial in an American tribunal. -- Call no.:
