Should've asked this a long time ago but I completly forgot. Any stories where we see a ransom letter or similar for a main character? (I know The Beagle Boys once forced HDL to write a letter.)

In Paperino, Zio Paperone e una questione di piume the Beagle Boys asked two ransom for the two billionaires of Duckburg. They sent a ransom letter with a feather of Scrooge to Donald, and then made a call to Rockerduck butler for another ransom.
I try asking something too. Some times ago I was reading the old post of this forum and stumbled in an interesting story that I cannot find anymore. It was a story where Scrooge tried to prove himself being descendant of Cornelius Coot and going in a big genealogy research to prove it, finding nothing but at the end discovering an unusual descendant (I have some memories it was his butler Battista, but I'm not so sure).

I doubt anyone remembers this but what ever. Scrooge is trying to take a shower, however the money bag is stubborn and falls down on him with a *thump*. This alerts his butler to whom he replies that he would want his morning coffee (or was it breakfast? Can't remember) served at the office. I'm almost certain that 1: It's in one of the early pocketbooks (among the first 100) 2: The book has a blue cover.
I remember that! It's I TL 846-C, and if I remember right, he asks for " et glas vand, tak!", Danish for "one glass of water , please!".

Thanks, it was this. I couldn't find it because it wasn't here, but in a blog post which all the early histories of Cornelius and Duckburg.
My memory about Cornelius being the ancestor of Scrooge's butler was also right, but he isn't Battista, just a unidentified bird-like character. It would have been really interesting if it was Battista, since I'm trying to collect all his relatives.
I'm have long been looking for a story with a flashback of Scrooge's youth: he was hungry and homeless in a snowy landscape and looked at a warm house from the outside without being able to enter.
I believed it to be an italian story published in Mickey Parade in 1995-1996 but checking Inducks did not bring anything (although it may be an incidental episode not entirely relevant to the bulk of the story). As far I remember the drawing style was definitely not Rosa's (and the setting is not necessarily Klondike).
Anyone remember the story where HDL is taking a bath, and Donald throws some kind of fish in the tub? (No, I have NO clue.) I DO however remember that it was german, cause when the nephews jumped out one of them exclaimed "Hilfe. Ein hai."

Not an "I can't remember" question, but another "I don't have this story" question. Could anyone who happens to own the Italian story Il mio e il vostro successo contact me? I have a few questions about the story for a little project I'm working on.
