Дж. Х. Ингрэм «The Young Fisherman; Or, The Cruiser Of The English Channel»

In the May 3, 1851, issue of Gleason's Pictorial Drawing Room Companion, there appeared the first installment of a serial entitled «The Young Fisherman; Or, The Cruiser Of The English Channel», with the by-line «F. Clinton Barrington.» (The quotation marks appear in the original.) It was reprinted in Bailouts Weekly Novelettes under the title «Red Hand; Or, The Cruiser Of The English Channel». In a revised and condensed version it was issued by Beadle as «The Loyalist; Or, The Channel Scourge», in the Dime Library Of Choice Fiction, No. 4, and as «Red Hand; Or, The Channel Scourge», in Pocket Novel No. 16; both giving the name of A. G. Piper as author.

Four years after Beadle's reprint was published, the story reappeared as by Barrington in Nos. 61 and 62 of Elliott, Thomas and Talbot's Ten Cent Novelettes under the titles, «Red Hand; or, The Cruiser of the English Channel,« and «The Young Fisherman; or, The Cruiser of the English Channel,« both issued in 1868.

Besides being condensed, the Beadle version changed the names of Guilford Graham, the hero, to Richard Graham, Lady Catharine Vane to Lucy Branden, Rudolph Vane to William Branden, and Ann Graham to Mabel Forester. The plots are identical.
