The Fighting Yank #25

The Fighting Yank confronts a murder scheme involving a drowned man named Jerry Drake, whose death initially appears accidental but is revealed to be a premeditated killing. A greedy schemer named Mr. Penby plans to claim insurance money on Drake's life and eliminate the young woman Martha, who is Drake's heir, to prevent her from inheriting. The Fighting Yank ultimately foils the conspiracy, stops Penby's criminal plot, and recovers a rare painting that was central to the scheme.
