Lassie #5/1965

In "Stopp toget!", the Martins face a sudden crisis when a flash flood destroys a railroad trestle during their journey to a new Farm Program assignment in east Africa. With night approaching and trains still due, they rely on Lassie and Timmy to swim the raging river and set flares on the far bank, guiding oncoming trains to safety. Their bravery earns them widespread praise, culminating in a triumphant welcome in Nairobi.

In the heart of the jungle, a young man named Kyan Zit falls ill after being poisoned, a ruse that distracts the blind elder U Po Net while his rupees are stolen. As Kyan recovers, he recalls the face of the man who poisoned him—Ramyo, the doctor’s assistant—and follows the trail of clues that lead to a shocking discovery. The truth behind the theft lies hidden in plain sight, unraveling a web of deceit in the quiet village.

In "Skrik i natten," the Martins embark on a journey to Uganda, where they're met by Dr. Johnson, headmaster of the Mission School at Moroto, who guides them through the wild and treacherous countryside. As they face dangers from elephant poachers and a sudden stampede, Lassie proves her courage by risking her life to protect her humans. When the travelers set up camp, they inadvertently disturb two sleeping leopards, and the elephants return to harass them—only to find the herd has destroyed their trailer by morning. The story builds with tension and adventure as the party presses on, finally reaching Moroto to be welcomed by the villagers.
