Comments:
Many of Gladstone's 'best' moments come when he competes against Donald for the fair Daisy's grace.

Synopsis:
Donald decides to put a stop to Gladstone's luck. He sells him a worthless piece of land...

Comments:
A few times Donald has been fool-hearted enough to attempt to give Gladstone a bad time, but he usually winds up regretting his actions, whether he sells Gladstone one single ticket (out of several thousands held by Donald) to a turkey raffle, or - as in this story - sells him a worthless strip of land that immediately after the purchase is hit by a meteor teeming with valuable stones...

Donald travels to British Guiana in order to trace down a valuable stamp and he finds it on an undelivered letter. But it has to be delivered first...

When Donald tries to wriggle himself out of the unfair commitment, Gladstone relentlessly pursues Donald forcing him to pay for not only the dinner but also for a trip to Florida and a hefty doctor's bill.
