| Notes | Last appearance. It's very probable the character in this story, Senator Claxonhorn, was swiped from radio's Senator Claghorn, played by Kenny Delmar on the Fred Allen show (later used by Warner Brothers in their cartoon series, "Foghorn Leghorn"). He uses all the same verbage the radio Senator did, including "Ah'm from the South -- the South that is!". |

A gangster, Boss Brewster, is killed at a masquerade party and one Joe Monsi is arrested for the crime and sentenced to die for it. However, a remark from Monsi's wife somehow rings true to the judge, who decides to go out among the criminal element to see how the other half lives. In doing so, he tracks down the Brewster Gang, and as The Red Demon, brings them to justice, and clears Monsi's name. |

| First Line | A textbook is a poor substitute for a heart... |
| Notes | The Who's Who only identified Carlin as the scripter for the Black Cat in 1947, so name added with ? by Craig Delich. Radio announcer in the this story was renamed for the true person, Gabriel Heater, famed broadcaster. Much of the story is told in flashback. All other appearances of this feature are titled "His Honor and ... The Demon", and that is used here. But in this story only, it was named "His Honor and ... The Red Demon". |
