What is there so wonderful about sleeping on the hard,
damp ground with trees dripping things on you all night?
Speaker 9 (02:59):
It gets the poison your system. I'll come back a

Will you please come in the house?
Speaker 12 (03:46):
Yeah, father, you go wrapped up in a rose bush there.
Speaker 9 (03:51):

Speaker 2 (03:53):
On a trip.
Speaker 11 (03:54):
He needs to get away from the house.
Speaker 7 (03:56):
What's wrong with the house?
Speaker 11 (03:59):
Nothing?
Speaker 9 (03:59):
Nothing, It's just if Henry needs to work off a
little of that energy out.
Speaker 11 (04:03):
In the fresh air.
Speaker 12 (04:04):
Here.
Speaker 7 (04:04):
He was just out in the yard.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
That isn't the same thing, by Henry?
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Did that ladder cost a great deal?
Speaker 11 (04:12):
Henray?
Speaker 7 (04:13):
Yes, sir, Sam, I've got to go out and get
something in Mary's very well.

Speaker 9 (04:24):
Oh, Henry, how would you like to get away from
all this?
Speaker 5 (04:28):
You're going to send me away just because I broke
the ladder?
Speaker 11 (04:32):
How would you like to go on a camping trip?
Speaker 3 (04:35):
Hello, I'll go with you in octobers.
Speaker 9 (04:38):
Why the prediction is warm and sunny for the next
few days, perhaps the last good ones we'll have.

Tonight, to the movies, Yes, sir, a bunch of a
plan to go this evening.
Speaker 11 (05:01):
Wouldn't you rather get out and eat your own fish?
Speaker 3 (05:04):
But she whiz, Father, they're counting on me to sit
with them.
Speaker 5 (05:08):
Couldn't we go some other time?
Speaker 9 (05:10):
Well, not as well as today, not only later this year.
Speaker 11 (05:13):
What's more, Homer Brown and his father may go.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
With us, Homer and mister Brown.
Speaker 11 (05:18):
That throws a different light on him.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
But Homer seen the picture and it doesn't matter to him.
Speaker 11 (05:23):
I see very well.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
Couldn't we go tomorrow?
Speaker 12 (05:27):
Father?
Speaker 11 (05:27):
No, Henry, if you don't care any more about it
than that, then you needn't even think of going. I'm
in Homer, I am.
Speaker 13 (05:35):
Him, I know, Hi, Henry, Hello, Homer, mister Alrich. My
father wanted me to come over and tell you. He
doesn't know why he didn't think.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Of it before.
Speaker 8 (05:43):
But we can't possibly go on that camping trip.
Speaker 11 (05:46):
Why not?
Speaker 13 (05:46):
We have to go to a wedding this afternoon and
a party afterwards.
Speaker 11 (05:50):
That's quite all right, Homer. I'm not sure I wanted
to go camping anyway.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Weren't you going at all?
Speaker 11 (05:55):
Father? Helone? Well, look she was, I'll go with you, no,
thank you, Henny, sad when you come upstairs me, what's
the trouble?
Speaker 5 (06:03):

Speaker 6 (06:04):
Mary's get him the key in her door and you
can't get it.
Speaker 11 (06:07):
Und I'll be right there, Father.
Speaker 7 (06:09):
Wouldn't you like to join us at the movies at
my expense?
Speaker 11 (06:12):
Thank you?
Speaker 5 (06:13):
And I would not, Henry?
Speaker 8 (06:15):
What did your mother say? Was the matter with Mary?
Speaker 12 (06:18):
Boy?
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Do you know what she did to me? Homer? Just
to be humorous? No, what she stole my diary?
Speaker 8 (06:23):
Your diary, Henry, way a five year.
Speaker 5 (06:25):
Diary, but you just started with this year, and Mary
has a sure and it's got into what I think
of everybody I know, including me.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Sure.
Speaker 6 (06:32):
Well, come on, huff, you look for it, Henry.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
May I have a talk with you with I mother?
Speaker 5 (06:37):
Hello, missus Alrich?
Speaker 10 (06:39):
Hello Homer, would you mind stepping into the hallway for
a minute.
Speaker 13 (06:42):
What do you want me to do out there? Missus Ulrich,
just wait till I'm through talking.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (06:48):
Oh oh, I get it. Well, I'm sure whatever it is,
Henry didn't mate it.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Mother. Mary started the whole thing by taking my diary.
Speaker 7 (06:55):
That isn't what I want to talk about here. Your
father feels rather bad day. Father does that because you'd
rather not go camping.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Oh, but mother, I told him I'd like to go.
Speaker 7 (07:05):
He said, you insisted on going to the movies.
Speaker 5 (07:08):
Ye. I don't know where we ever got that impression.
I'll admit I did.
Speaker 9 (07:11):
Mention the movies because it's a picture.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
I feel it's my duty to see. I didn't refuse
to go camping.
Speaker 10 (07:16):
Well, you see, dear, your father does enjoy doing things
with you, and I'm afraid this time he was just
a little hurt.
Speaker 5 (07:23):
Oh, she I didn't realize he was that sensitive.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Maybe I ought to take him camping.
Speaker 8 (07:30):
Would you like to sure?
Speaker 3 (07:32):
Do him a lot of good.
Speaker 5 (07:33):
He needs to get away from the house for a while.
The house sure out in the fresh air and different surroundings.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Oh, she was, Homer, what's the matter.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
Loving Henry?
Speaker 10 (07:43):
This table drawer came out too far, that's all, Homer.
Speaker 6 (07:47):
Why are you going through the whole table drawer looking.
Speaker 7 (07:50):
For something of Henry's mother?
Speaker 6 (07:51):
Mother wants to know whether we have any eye a dime.
Speaker 7 (07:54):
That happened.
Speaker 6 (07:54):
He hit his finger opening my door, and he's feeling
very sorry for himself.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Mother, Yes, I'm not sure.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
Speaking to Mary, will you please tell her I'll go
up and get the iodine for father.
Speaker 6 (08:04):
Mother, I think Henry's entirely too sensitive.
Speaker 7 (08:07):
Mary, dear, do you know where Henry's diary is?
Speaker 11 (08:11):
Well?
Speaker 14 (08:12):
Exactly what you mean by that, Mother, I mean did
you hide it?
Speaker 10 (08:16):
Well?
Speaker 7 (08:17):
Yes, but well yes, but well yes.
Speaker 6 (08:21):
But that's what puzzles me. Where did you put it
in the clothes happer?
Speaker 7 (08:25):
Did you put it in the clothes happer? Do you
put it in the clothes happer? And when I went
back together it it was.
Speaker 10 (08:30):
Gone, Mary Aldry, I don't really have even the slightest
ideas to where it is.
Speaker 6 (08:36):
For all I know, it may have gone to the laundry.
Speaker 7 (08:38):
Now, Mary, I don't think that was very nice.
Speaker 8 (08:41):
Mother.
Speaker 6 (08:41):
There wasn't one word in it. Be laundry could take
offense at He says, all.
Speaker 8 (08:45):
Right, is Henry still upstairs? Homer?
Speaker 7 (08:48):
What are you doing in there?
Speaker 12 (08:50):
Well?
Speaker 8 (08:50):
Did you know one of the drawers in your desk
is locked?
Speaker 7 (08:53):
Homer?
Speaker 6 (08:54):
Please leave my desk alone.
Speaker 11 (08:58):
Mary, I want you to do something for me.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
What is it?
Speaker 11 (09:00):
Father? Do you see this brown envelope?
Speaker 12 (09:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (09:02):
Well, before I forget, when a mister Warren calls for it,
will you please be sure that he gets it?
Speaker 8 (09:06):
Certainly?
Speaker 7 (09:07):
Father, Sam, are you and Henry really going, Kathy.
Speaker 9 (09:10):
Yes, Alice, we had a little talk upstairs and I
agreed to take him.
Speaker 11 (09:14):
I'm married. Did I write mister Warren's name on the envelope?
Speaker 14 (09:16):
Oh, my goodness, Father, I can certainly remember mister Warren,
can't I?
Speaker 9 (09:20):
Well, don't lose it's it's extremely important.
Speaker 12 (09:22):
Mother.
Speaker 5 (09:22):
Does father tell you I agreed to take him? Yes,
Henry hurry watching that envelope?
Speaker 6 (09:27):
God, don't you wish you knew?
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Can't you tell me?
Speaker 6 (09:30):
It's nothing? Very pride, Sam.
Speaker 10 (09:32):
I'll go in the kitchen and boil a couple dozen
eggs for you and Henry.
Speaker 7 (09:35):
To take away you.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
She mother, you don't need to boil an egg.
Speaker 11 (09:37):
No, Alice, we'll cook our own food.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
What food?
Speaker 11 (09:40):
The fish we catch? All we want is a little
flour so we can make biscuits and some baker.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
What Omer you did?
Speaker 8 (09:48):
What does this mean?
Speaker 13 (09:49):
It says Sam dropped in tonight and I found him
terribly nice but very sensitive.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Food's very census in Homer, Where did you get that?
Speaker 8 (09:59):
Well? You know that block drawer in your desk.
Speaker 7 (10:01):
And may I have it?
Speaker 12 (10:02):
Please?
Speaker 7 (10:03):
You can be mine?
Speaker 11 (10:06):
When did you write that?
Speaker 10 (10:07):
Never mind, we can't read it. We certainly may not.
I'm going to take it out and burn it.
Speaker 11 (10:12):
But come out, Henry.
Speaker 9 (10:13):
Let's go up and get into our old close.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
Sure, father, it's along, Homer.
Speaker 8 (10:17):
You're leaving me, Henry.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Don't you want to go home?
Speaker 8 (10:20):
Well? I was gonna look for your diary somewhere.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
Wait a second, Homer, I just had a wonderful idea
before I will it kill Mary? Will She's got a
brown envelope, Homer, A brown envelope, she says, it's very
private before I go camping. I'm gonna get it and
hide it.
Speaker 8 (10:35):
You are sure?
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Sure? The only thing is Homer. You're not afraid of.
Speaker 8 (10:40):
Mary, are you?
Speaker 4 (10:42):
No?
Speaker 3 (10:42):
But maybe I really are?
Speaker 13 (10:43):
After all, Henry, you aren't gonna open the envelope, are you?
Speaker 8 (10:46):
She is, No, You're just gonna.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Hide it for a few days to get even.
Speaker 13 (10:49):
I think it's a great idea, sure, And boy.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Will I teach her a lesson about taking things that
don't belong to her?
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Father?
Speaker 11 (11:10):
Yes, Henry, I don't mean to be critical.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
But don't you think the fish would bite better if
we didn't whistle?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Yes?
Speaker 12 (11:16):
Good IDEA nice tangy day, isn't it.
Speaker 11 (11:21):
Just look at those leaves, brown red?
Speaker 5 (11:24):
I think I'll cast out here in this other direction.
It don't seem to be biting very well.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Do you have them time? They just getting used to us.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Boy, I have to laugh every time I think of it.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Never time you think of what the way I got
even with Mary?
Speaker 5 (11:41):
See?
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Did I hide something of hers?
Speaker 11 (11:45):
I have never was so you came to visit us?
Speaker 2 (11:47):
He lost his bag offish.
Speaker 5 (11:50):
I think I gotta bite good if we just keep quiet, oping.
Speaker 9 (11:55):
How you hook a little?
Speaker 5 (11:56):
That's what I'm doing. Who whiz that you kicked our
knapsack into the water.
Speaker 11 (12:04):
I can get it.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Be quiet, though.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
All I have to do is to take.
Speaker 9 (12:07):
My shoes and socks off and wad it right out
to where them pack a snag.
Speaker 5 (12:12):
You better hurry, father, The current is taking it away.
Speaker 11 (12:14):
Here I go.
Speaker 12 (12:21):
I'll get it all right.
Speaker 11 (12:22):
Be careful, father, turn out deeper than I thought.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
You want to throw me your coat?
Speaker 12 (12:28):
Father?
Speaker 11 (12:29):
No, I just have to take one more statue?
Speaker 7 (12:34):
It was father, Father?
Speaker 13 (12:37):
Where are you?
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Father?
Speaker 6 (12:46):
Marry?
Speaker 7 (12:46):
Don't you have the slightest idea as to where you
put it?
Speaker 14 (12:49):
I'm almost positive that I put it here on this
hall table, and it was a brown invalids.
Speaker 6 (12:54):
About this stick is that mister Warren waiting in the
living room.
Speaker 7 (12:57):
And no, there it's Will Brown, his uncle.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
I'm asking something, Oh, mister Brown, Yes, Mary, Does your
mister Vaughan really need that envelope today?
Speaker 12 (13:07):
He sure does. It was down at your father's office
this morning and got a little excited or something and
walked off and left it.
Speaker 6 (13:12):
I see, just how valuable is it?
Speaker 12 (13:16):
Well, it wouldn't be valuable to anybody else, but it
certainly means a lot to my nephew, it does. He
had his marriage license inate.
Speaker 7 (13:23):
Oh is that all?
Speaker 12 (13:25):
That's all? He's planning to be married.
Speaker 7 (13:26):
At five o'clock today.
Speaker 12 (13:29):
I hope you don't think i'd be wearing a cutaway
like this and day ahead of time. Yes, sir, My
nephews whole futures in that envelope. O.
Speaker 6 (13:37):
Look, mister Brown, would you mind sitting down just a
minute while my mother and I go through my room
once more?
Speaker 12 (13:42):
Well, I won't sit down exactly. I don't want to
ruin this coat. I'll just sort of lean against the wall.
But another stick on the fire, Hendry.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
That's what I'm doing.
Speaker 11 (13:59):
Father. Do I smell something burning?
Speaker 5 (14:03):
It's just a fire, I think, boy, these fish.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Your are tasty, aren't they?
Speaker 11 (14:08):
Yes? Has some more?
Speaker 3 (14:09):
They don't mind if I do.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
She're we smarter mother to put this can of sardines
in the knapsack.
Speaker 11 (14:16):
Your mother thinks of everything.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
They're even important. You ought to see the big one.
Speaker 11 (14:21):

Speaker 11 (14:46):

Speaker 2 (14:48):
Yes, take this knife and cut a piece of that cake.
Speaker 9 (14:52):
Oh gee, whizz, cut from the end that didn't go
in the lake, you know, soun. As soon as we're
to eat it, I think we'd better move on to
a place where there aren't so many mosquitoes.
Speaker 5 (15:05):
Father, Maybe you did smell something burning?
Speaker 12 (15:07):
What is it?
Speaker 8 (15:08):
She whiz? I didn't know.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
You put your shoes right next to this fire.
Speaker 7 (15:19):
You go through that pile of papers, dear and I'll
go through this one.
Speaker 6 (15:22):
I've been through all of them twice.
Speaker 12 (15:24):
Mother, I just went through the trash pile, and there's
no sign of any license there.
Speaker 10 (15:28):
Will Brown, you haven't been going through the trash pile
in that cutaway?
Speaker 11 (15:32):
Have you?
Speaker 12 (15:32):
I used a long rake?
Speaker 8 (15:34):
Did I just hear the phone?
Speaker 12 (15:36):
If you did, don't answer it. They've been heckling us
for two hours. When we find the envelope, my nephew
can get married, and not until then.
Speaker 7 (15:43):
My goodness, Look at this what mother? I just found
the Christmas card we never open? I wonder car missus
Standish has been so cool.
Speaker 8 (15:52):
To me all year.
Speaker 12 (15:53):
Wait until you see how my nephew reacts to you.
Speaker 7 (15:56):
Where's he going on his honeymoon to New Hampshire, New Hampshire.
Speaker 12 (16:00):
Well they like it thing, they will if they ever
get there. Father.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Where are you here, Homer?
Speaker 8 (16:06):
Well look, they wanted me to tell you the rides
having hysterics.
Speaker 6 (16:10):
Oh my goodness, sh Tomer.
Speaker 13 (16:12):
She says she's never gonna speak to the groom again
as long as she lives.
Speaker 11 (16:15):
That's a fine thing.
Speaker 12 (16:17):
Are all the guests still there?
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Sure?
Speaker 8 (16:19):
When I left? They just finished the wedding cake. Here
I brought your peace.
Speaker 12 (16:24):
Not now, just help us look for that license?
Speaker 11 (16:27):
Well, what did it look like?
Speaker 13 (16:29):
It's in a brown envelope, A brown envelope, Yes, dear,
a brown envelope about.
Speaker 12 (16:37):
This large what's the matter with you, Homer?
Speaker 8 (16:39):
Have you seen it the marriage license?
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (16:42):
No, sir, only you know what I think.
Speaker 8 (16:46):
I think we ought to get in the car and find.
Speaker 12 (16:49):
Mister Alrich Sam Oldrich.
Speaker 8 (16:50):
He's with Henry. I'm positive that'd be the safest thing
to do.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Where is it they're camping out?
Speaker 7 (16:56):
Treat that up near Macaucolly's Rocks.
Speaker 12 (16:57):
Macargo's Rock's way up there.
Speaker 13 (16:59):
We could find him in less than two hours, and
I have a feeling that's the only thing to do.
Speaker 12 (17:05):
Alice, call a waiting and tell him to go ahead
with a reception. We'll get the bride and groom married later.
We'll return to the Aldridge family in just a moment.
His voice has thrilled millions, His curly locks have been

man of the world.

(18:30):
who had lost his diary, Henry has hidden an envelope
which he believes is hers, and he's gone off on a.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Three day camping trip. He's unaware of the.
Speaker 4 (18:38):
Fact that the envelope contains an important marriage license.
Speaker 11 (18:42):
The scene is in the woods, the time is late
at night. Father.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Where are you right here?
Speaker 9 (18:47):
Henry?
Speaker 11 (18:48):
Where all this blanket?
Speaker 10 (18:50):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (18:52):
You think we'll like this place. But in the last
two places we unpacked in.
Speaker 9 (18:55):
There's no mosquito anywhere near here. Now lie out and
get comfortable.
Speaker 5 (19:00):
See, I wish our flashlight hadn't dropped in the water.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
You don't need a flashlight, father, Have you any idea
where we are?
Speaker 11 (19:07):
I know exactly where we are. We're about a mile
and a half from the main line of the.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Y and R Railroad.
Speaker 11 (19:12):
I lie down and go to sleep.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
I am.
Speaker 11 (19:16):
This is the life a son. You think it'll rain,
There isn't a chance. She What was that.
Speaker 9 (19:28):
Just a thunderstorm way over on the other side of
the valley.
Speaker 11 (19:32):
I close your eyes and go to sleep.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
Yes, father, I wonder why the stars aren't out.
Speaker 11 (19:39):
Give them time. They'll come out too bad. Will Brown
and Homer couldn't have come along with us?
Speaker 7 (19:45):
Who's what did you say?
Speaker 9 (19:46):
It was mister Warren, the young businessman who just moved
to town. I expect to do a lot of business
with him. What's that just some animal? Why don't you
just relax, Henry and enjoy nature.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
Sounded gonna be like a train whistle?
Speaker 11 (20:07):
Well it might have been a train over on the
Wye arm Oh.
Speaker 5 (20:13):
Listen, father, don't you think we gotta go some other place.
Speaker 9 (20:15):
Now, Henry, there's no sense in trying to go anyplace else.
Speaker 11 (20:18):
We'll be just as comfortable here as if we were home.
Speaker 12 (20:20):
You're the.
Speaker 11 (20:23):
Father.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
Is it raining where you are?
Speaker 11 (20:28):
Just a little? You better put your blanket over your head?
Speaker 3 (20:35):
For a train whistle sounds closer?
Speaker 9 (20:37):
Well, of course it sounds closer. It's gonna pass within
a mile and a half of it, Father, Father.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
The headlights plenty right at us.
Speaker 11 (20:49):
What's that?
Speaker 4 (20:50):
You feel?
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Only ties under you?
Speaker 13 (20:53):
Do?
Speaker 11 (20:53):
If we get way over here?
Speaker 12 (21:06):
Ray?
Speaker 6 (21:09):
Ray?
Speaker 12 (21:10):
Same? Oh it?
Speaker 8 (21:14):
Do you hear anything?
Speaker 9 (21:15):
Father?
Speaker 12 (21:16):
Oh? Sam?
Speaker 8 (21:18):
Maybe they want a.
Speaker 12 (21:19):
Little father into the woods, Homan. They couldn't have gone.
Speaker 8 (21:22):
What's the matter of father?
Speaker 3 (21:23):
Nothing?
Speaker 12 (21:24):
I just fell down again. I never thought when i'd
put this cutaway on I'd be wearing it out hiking.
Speaker 8 (21:31):
Do you watch your piece of wedding cake?
Speaker 11 (21:33):
Now?
Speaker 12 (21:33):
I do not? All I want is that license here? Homer, China?
Light over this way? What is it? A camp's height?
Somebody cooked their supper here where right there? See sighting?
Can the burnt shoe? Probably a couple of tramps come
on home?
Speaker 8 (21:55):
Is is that rain? I feel?
Speaker 11 (21:58):
Justin leaves? Rustling.
Speaker 8 (22:01):
Was that leads too? Oh?
Speaker 4 (22:04):
Sam?
Speaker 11 (22:05):
Sam?
Speaker 9 (22:20):
Father?
Speaker 3 (22:21):
Are you sure the front door was locked? I am.
Let's try the back door. That's why I'm doing. Don't
you think we ought to call mother?
Speaker 7 (22:29):
No, real softly, there's no use disturbing your mother.
Speaker 11 (22:32):
It's here in midnight.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
Bless you, Thank you, brother.
Speaker 5 (22:37):
Why can't we sleep over at the Browns we drove by.
The lights were still on.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
The guests are still there too. We're not walking in
on any wedding party looking like this. We're the last
people in the world they want.
Speaker 11 (22:46):
To see the nights.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
She even the windows are locked. Father, I know what
we could do? What camp out in the garage?
Speaker 2 (22:55):
No, Henry, your mother never let us hear the last
of us.
Speaker 5 (22:58):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Incidentally, when you see it in the morning, it won't.
Speaker 11 (23:00):
Be necessary to mention the fact that we lost a
frying bear.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
How about your shoe that we lost.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Well, that was an old shoe I bought at least
two years ago.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Hey, wait, I know how we can get here. Where
are you going?
Speaker 11 (23:11):
The cellar door is unlocked?
Speaker 8 (23:13):
Follow me, bless you, thank.
Speaker 6 (23:15):
You, mother.
Speaker 7 (23:30):
Mother, Yes, Mary, I help you, I know it.
Speaker 12 (23:37):
Hello, I know is this.
Speaker 7 (23:39):
Alice all rich?
Speaker 5 (23:40):
Yes? This is Margaret Kuehmer next door.
Speaker 7 (23:43):
Oh, I don't want to love you in the middle
of the night.
Speaker 8 (23:46):
But when I looked out my bedroom window a moment ago,
I saw two men prowling around your house.
Speaker 10 (23:51):
Two men.
Speaker 11 (23:51):
Yes.
Speaker 7 (23:52):
Are you sure everything is long well?
Speaker 9 (23:54):
Yes?
Speaker 7 (23:55):
At least I think everything is well.
Speaker 6 (23:57):
Then I wasn't worried, dear, they're probing.
Speaker 7 (24:01):
Yes, of course I haven't disturbed you.
Speaker 11 (24:04):
Oh no, no, not at all. Good.
Speaker 14 (24:10):
It wasn't anyone, Mary, Just missus Kilmer, Missus Kilmer.
Speaker 7 (24:14):
She says, not to worry, but there were two men outside.
Speaker 6 (24:18):
Two men.
Speaker 7 (24:19):
Now, don't be afraid.
Speaker 14 (24:20):
Every door and window was locked, exitt. Perhaps the cellar
door didn't we locked yet? Mary, We've got to go
down and see whether we did or not at this
time of night, Yes, dear, And then let's not turn.
Speaker 7 (24:31):
On any lights.
Speaker 14 (24:32):
I won't Mother, I don't wait here in the hall, Dear,
While I answered the phone, Who do you suppose it is?
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Hello? Who you know the best man at John Warren's wedding?
Speaker 10 (24:49):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (24:49):
Yes, Do you have any ideas to where mister Brown
former went?
Speaker 10 (24:53):
Yes, up to Macawcay's rocks to look for Henry and
mister Aldridge.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Well, they haven't come back yet.
Speaker 11 (24:58):
We're getting a bit worried.
Speaker 7 (25:00):
My goodness, maybe I better take a couple of guests
and go out and try to find them.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
Well, hope I didn't wake you up.
Speaker 5 (25:06):
Oh no, not at all.
Speaker 7 (25:08):
Bye, goodbye mother.
Speaker 6 (25:11):
Yes, dear, I just ran down and locked the cylind door.
Speaker 5 (25:13):
You locked it.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
I never was so brightened in my life, and I
was just in time.
Speaker 14 (25:17):
Mother.
Speaker 7 (25:18):
I could hear somebody right outside, hear I'm sure we're
perfectly safe. Everything is lost.
Speaker 12 (25:26):
What's that?
Speaker 3 (25:27):
Mary?
Speaker 6 (25:30):
Listen?
Speaker 14 (25:30):
Mary, Mary, someone's putting a ladder against the side of
the house.
Speaker 7 (25:35):
They would climb in one of the windows.
Speaker 6 (25:36):
Shouldn't we call the police?
Speaker 7 (25:37):
Yes, dear, I knew all the time.
Speaker 14 (25:39):
Henry shouldn't have left that ladder lying there on the ground.
Speaker 7 (25:42):
Wasn't it broken?
Speaker 8 (25:43):
I thought it was.
Speaker 6 (25:44):
I don't see how it is.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
What time is it?
Speaker 5 (26:08):
Ch?
Speaker 11 (26:09):
Ten minutes to three?
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Are we almost home? Father?
Speaker 11 (26:12):
We are.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Mary Yes's father. As long as you live.
Speaker 9 (26:17):
If you ever discover that Henry is keeping another diary,
you are not to hide it in the laundry hamper.
Speaker 11 (26:23):
Or in the other place.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
Is that clear?
Speaker 5 (26:26):
Yes?
Speaker 7 (26:26):
Father?
Speaker 11 (26:27):
And Henry?
Speaker 8 (26:28):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (26:28):
Father.
Speaker 7 (26:29):
I know, I thought you made a very nice best man, Sam,
Thank you, even if you were wearing cocky trousers.
Speaker 5 (26:38):
She it's too bad home where mister Brown didn't get
there for the ceremony.
Speaker 7 (26:41):
Well, my goodness, the way they looked when they did
get back. It's just as well. Anyway, it was a
very nice wedding. Didn't you think the bride looked lovely?
Speaker 13 (26:49):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (26:49):
Yes, mother, it is sleepy perhaps, but loveless.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
I didn't like her so much. She was pretty darn
cool to me.
Speaker 11 (26:58):
You don't say, oh, break you, father, sam Aldrich.
Speaker 7 (27:02):
Are you catching cold?
Speaker 11 (27:03):
Certainly not in October.
Speaker 5 (27:05):
It's just well, it's just frankly, I think there was
a little too much tang in the air.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
Radar can't do the entire job of protecting our country
from a surprise air attack. That's up to us as
individual citizens. Right now, the Air Defense Command needs three
hundred thousand more volunteers for its Ground Observer Corps, made
up of patriotic citizens who contribute a few hours of
their spare time each week. Both men and women from
(27:43):
teenage up can join the Ground Observer Corps and perform
a valuable service to our country. Rite aphone, your nearest
civil defense center A Right to Ground Observer Corps Air
Force Washington, twenty five DCRABYD you.

Speaker 3 (28:14):
Where's Molly? Where did that come from?
Speaker 7 (28:16):
I just came back with a laundry.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
What's this piece of paper with it?
Speaker 11 (28:19):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (28:19):
I didn't read it.
Speaker 5 (28:21):
It says we cannot accept responsibility for laundering this article,
but suggest you send.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
It to a reliable dry cleaner.

Why are you home so early?
Speaker 9 (02:34):
Well, all summer I've been saying that sometime Henry, and
I ought to pack up and go off on a
camping trip.
Speaker 11 (02:39):
Here.
Speaker 7 (02:40):
You aren't going on a camping trip in October, are you?

I'm all caught up at the.
Speaker 11 (02:44):
Office's October, Alice.
Speaker 9 (02:46):
There's a tang in the air. All the leaves are
starting to turn color. It's a wonderful idea.
Speaker 10 (02:51):
What is there so wonderful about sleeping on the hard,
damp ground with trees dripping things on you all night?
Speaker 9 (02:59):
It gets the poison your system. I'll come back a
new man. And after all I did promise Henry.
Speaker 7 (03:04):
I'm sure he's forgotten all about it.
Speaker 11 (03:06):
All right.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
He'll enjoy it, Alice, he'll enjoy it.
Speaker 7 (03:08):
How long will you be gone?

Will you please call Henry?
Speaker 8 (03:14):

it up to my window.

Henry, will you please take that ladder back Monday?
Speaker 6 (03:25):
Rely, let's marry for the last time.
Speaker 3 (03:28):

All right, father, I can fix your ladder.
Speaker 11 (03:44):
Will you please come in the house?
Speaker 12 (03:46):
Yeah, father, you go wrapped up in a rose bush there.
Speaker 9 (03:51):
Alice is a good example of why I should take Henry.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
On a trip.
Speaker 11 (03:54):
He needs to get away from the house.
Speaker 7 (03:56):
What's wrong with the house?
Speaker 11 (03:59):
Nothing?
Speaker 9 (03:59):
Nothing, It's just if Henry needs to work off a
little of that energy out.
Speaker 11 (04:03):
In the fresh air.
Speaker 12 (04:04):
Here.
Speaker 7 (04:04):
He was just out in the yard.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
That isn't the same thing, by Henry?
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Did that ladder cost a great deal?
Speaker 11 (04:12):
Henray?
Speaker 7 (04:13):
Yes, sir, Sam, I've got to go out and get
something in Mary's very well.

Speaker 5 (04:23):
Now?
Speaker 11 (04:23):
I do?
Speaker 9 (04:24):
Oh, Henry, how would you like to get away from
all this?
Speaker 5 (04:28):
You're going to send me away just because I broke
the ladder?
Speaker 11 (04:32):
How would you like to go on a camping trip?
Speaker 3 (04:35):
Hello, I'll go with you in octobers.

with them.
Speaker 5 (05:08):
Couldn't we go some other time?
Speaker 9 (05:10):
Well, not as well as today, not only later this year.
Speaker 11 (05:13):
What's more, Homer Brown and his father may go.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
With us, Homer and mister Brown.
Speaker 11 (05:18):
That throws a different light on him.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
But Homer seen the picture and it doesn't matter to him.
Speaker 11 (05:23):
I see very well.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
Couldn't we go tomorrow?
Speaker 12 (05:27):
Father?
Speaker 11 (05:27):
No, Henry, if you don't care any more about it
than that, then you needn't even think of going. I'm
in Homer, I am.
Speaker 13 (05:35):
Him, I know, Hi, Henry, Hello, Homer, mister Alrich. My
father wanted me to come over and tell you. He
doesn't know why he didn't think.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Of it before.
Speaker 8 (05:43):
But we can't possibly go on that camping trip.
Speaker 11 (05:46):
Why not?
Speaker 13 (05:46):
We have to go to a wedding this afternoon and
a party afterwards.
Speaker 11 (05:50):
That's quite all right, Homer. I'm not sure I wanted
to go camping anyway.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Weren't you going at all?
Speaker 11 (05:55):
Father? Helone? Well, look she was, I'll go with you, no,
thank you, Henny, sad when you come upstairs me, what's
the trouble?
Speaker 5 (06:03):
Now?
Speaker 6 (06:04):
Mary's get him the key in her door and you
can't get it.
Speaker 11 (06:07):
Und I'll be right there, Father.
Speaker 7 (06:09):
Wouldn't you like to join us at the movies at
my expense?
Speaker 11 (06:12):
Thank you?
Speaker 5 (06:13):
And I would not, Henry?
Speaker 8 (06:15):
What did your mother say? Was the matter with Mary?
Speaker 12 (06:18):
Boy?
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Do you know what she did to me? Homer? Just
to be humorous? No, what she stole my diary?
Speaker 8 (06:23):
Your diary, Henry, way a five year.
Speaker 5 (06:25):
Diary, but you just started with this year, and Mary
has a sure and it's got into what I think
of everybody I know, including me.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Sure.
Speaker 6 (06:32):
Well, come on, huff, you look for it, Henry.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
May I have a talk with you with I mother?
Speaker 5 (06:37):
Hello, missus Alrich?
Speaker 10 (06:39):
Hello Homer, would you mind stepping into the hallway for
a minute.
Speaker 13 (06:42):
What do you want me to do out there? Missus Ulrich,
just wait till I'm through talking.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (06:48):
Oh oh, I get it. Well, I'm sure whatever it is,
Henry didn't mate it.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Mother. Mary started the whole thing by taking my diary.
Speaker 7 (06:55):
That isn't what I want to talk about here. Your
father feels rather bad day. Father does that because you'd
rather not go camping.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Oh, but mother, I told him I'd like to go.
Speaker 7 (07:05):
He said, you insisted on going to the movies.
Speaker 5 (07:08):
Ye. I don't know where we ever got that impression.
I'll admit I did.
Speaker 9 (07:11):
Mention the movies because it's a picture.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
I feel it's my duty to see. I didn't refuse
to go camping.
Speaker 10 (07:16):
Well, you see, dear, your father does enjoy doing things
with you, and I'm afraid this time he was just
a little hurt.
Speaker 5 (07:23):
Oh, she I didn't realize he was that sensitive.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Maybe I ought to take him camping.
Speaker 8 (07:30):
Would you like to sure?
Speaker 3 (07:32):
Do him a lot of good.
Speaker 5 (07:33):
He needs to get away from the house for a while.
The house sure out in the fresh air and different surroundings.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Oh, she was, Homer, what's the matter.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
Loving Henry?
Speaker 10 (07:43):
This table drawer came out too far, that's all, Homer.
Speaker 6 (07:47):
Why are you going through the whole table drawer looking.
Speaker 7 (07:50):
For something of Henry's mother?
Speaker 6 (07:51):
Mother wants to know whether we have any eye a dime.
Speaker 7 (07:54):
That happened.
Speaker 6 (07:54):
He hit his finger opening my door, and he's feeling
very sorry for himself.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Mother, Yes, I'm not sure.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
Speaking to Mary, will you please tell her I'll go
up and get the iodine for father.
Speaker 6 (08:04):
Mother, I think Henry's entirely too sensitive.
Speaker 7 (08:07):
Mary, dear, do you know where Henry's diary is?
Speaker 11 (08:11):
Well?
Speaker 14 (08:12):
Exactly what you mean by that, Mother, I mean did
you hide it?
Speaker 10 (08:16):
Well?
Speaker 7 (08:17):
Yes, but well yes, but well yes.
Speaker 6 (08:21):
But that's what puzzles me. Where did you put it
in the clothes happer?
Speaker 7 (08:25):
Did you put it in the clothes happer? Do you
put it in the clothes happer? And when I went
back together it it was.
Speaker 10 (08:30):
Gone, Mary Aldry, I don't really have even the slightest
ideas to where it is.
Speaker 6 (08:36):
For all I know, it may have gone to the laundry.
Speaker 7 (08:38):
Now, Mary, I don't think that was very nice.
Speaker 8 (08:41):
Mother.
Speaker 6 (08:41):
There wasn't one word in it. Be laundry could take
offense at He says, all.
Speaker 8 (08:45):
Right, is Henry still upstairs? Homer?
Speaker 7 (08:48):
What are you doing in there?
Speaker 12 (08:50):
Well?
Speaker 8 (08:50):
Did you know one of the drawers in your desk
is locked?
Speaker 7 (08:53):
Homer?
Speaker 6 (08:54):
Please leave my desk alone.
Speaker 11 (08:58):
Mary, I want you to do something for me.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
What is it?
Speaker 11 (09:00):
Father? Do you see this brown envelope?
Speaker 12 (09:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (09:02):
Well, before I forget, when a mister Warren calls for it,
will you please be sure that he gets it?
Speaker 8 (09:06):
Certainly?
Speaker 7 (09:07):
Father, Sam, are you and Henry really going, Kathy.
Speaker 9 (09:10):
Yes, Alice, we had a little talk upstairs and I
agreed to take him.
Speaker 11 (09:14):
I'm married. Did I write mister Warren's name on the envelope?
Speaker 14 (09:16):
Oh, my goodness, Father, I can certainly remember mister Warren,
can't I?
Speaker 9 (09:20):
Well, don't lose it's it's extremely important.
Speaker 12 (09:22):
Mother.
Speaker 5 (09:22):
Does father tell you I agreed to take him? Yes,
Henry hurry watching that envelope?
Speaker 6 (09:27):
God, don't you wish you knew?
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Can't you tell me?
Speaker 6 (09:30):
It's nothing? Very pride, Sam.
Speaker 10 (09:32):
I'll go in the kitchen and boil a couple dozen
eggs for you and Henry.
Speaker 7 (09:35):
To take away you.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
She mother, you don't need to boil an egg.
Speaker 11 (09:37):
No, Alice, we'll cook our own food.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
What food?
Speaker 11 (09:40):
The fish we catch? All we want is a little
flour so we can make biscuits and some baker.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
What Omer you did?
Speaker 8 (09:48):
What does this mean?
Speaker 13 (09:49):
It says Sam dropped in tonight and I found him
terribly nice but very sensitive.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Food's very census in Homer, Where did you get that?
Speaker 8 (09:59):
Well? You know that block drawer in your desk.
Speaker 7 (10:01):
And may I have it?
Speaker 12 (10:02):
Please?
Speaker 7 (10:03):
You can be mine?
Speaker 11 (10:06):
When did you write that?
Speaker 10 (10:07):
Never mind, we can't read it. We certainly may not.
I'm going to take it out and burn it.
Speaker 11 (10:12):
But come out, Henry.
Speaker 9 (10:13):
Let's go up and get into our old close.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
Sure, father, it's along, Homer.
Speaker 8 (10:17):
You're leaving me, Henry.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Don't you want to go home?
Speaker 8 (10:20):
Well? I was gonna look for your diary somewhere.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
Wait a second, Homer, I just had a wonderful idea
before I will it kill Mary? Will She's got a
brown envelope, Homer, A brown envelope, she says, it's very
private before I go camping. I'm gonna get it and
hide it.
Speaker 8 (10:35):
You are sure?
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Sure? The only thing is Homer. You're not afraid of.
Speaker 8 (10:40):
Mary, are you?
Speaker 4 (10:42):
No?
Speaker 3 (10:42):
But maybe I really are?
Speaker 13 (10:43):
After all, Henry, you aren't gonna open the envelope, are you?
Speaker 8 (10:46):
She is, No, You're just gonna.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Hide it for a few days to get even.
Speaker 13 (10:49):
I think it's a great idea, sure, And boy.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Will I teach her a lesson about taking things that
don't belong to her?
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Father?
Speaker 11 (11:10):
Yes, Henry, I don't mean to be critical.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
But don't you think the fish would bite better if
we didn't whistle?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Yes?
Speaker 12 (11:16):
Good IDEA nice tangy day, isn't it.
Speaker 11 (11:21):
Just look at those leaves, brown red?
Speaker 5 (11:24):
I think I'll cast out here in this other direction.
It don't seem to be biting very well.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Do you have them time? They just getting used to us.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Boy, I have to laugh every time I think of it.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Never time you think of what the way I got
even with Mary?
Speaker 5 (11:41):
See?
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Did I hide something of hers?
Speaker 11 (11:45):
I have never was so you came to visit us?
Speaker 2 (11:47):
He lost his bag offish.
Speaker 5 (11:50):
I think I gotta bite good if we just keep quiet, oping.
Speaker 9 (11:55):
How you hook a little?
Speaker 5 (11:56):
That's what I'm doing. Who whiz that you kicked our
knapsack into the water.
Speaker 11 (12:04):
I can get it.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Be quiet, though.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
All I have to do is to take.
Speaker 9 (12:07):
My shoes and socks off and wad it right out
to where them pack a snag.
Speaker 5 (12:12):
You better hurry, father, The current is taking it away.
Speaker 11 (12:14):
Here I go.
Speaker 12 (12:21):
I'll get it all right.
Speaker 11 (12:22):
Be careful, father, turn out deeper than I thought.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
You want to throw me your coat?
Speaker 12 (12:28):
Father?
Speaker 11 (12:29):
No, I just have to take one more statue?
Speaker 7 (12:34):
It was father, Father?
Speaker 13 (12:37):
Where are you?
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Father?
Speaker 6 (12:46):
Marry?
Speaker 7 (12:46):
Don't you have the slightest idea as to where you
put it?
Speaker 14 (12:49):
I'm almost positive that I put it here on this
hall table, and it was a brown invalids.
Speaker 6 (12:54):
About this stick is that mister Warren waiting in the
living room.
Speaker 7 (12:57):
And no, there it's Will Brown, his uncle.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
I'm asking something, Oh, mister Brown, Yes, Mary, Does your
mister Vaughan really need that envelope today?
Speaker 12 (13:07):
He sure does. It was down at your father's office
this morning and got a little excited or something and
walked off and left it.
Speaker 6 (13:12):
I see, just how valuable is it?
Speaker 12 (13:16):
Well, it wouldn't be valuable to anybody else, but it
certainly means a lot to my nephew, it does. He
had his marriage license inate.
Speaker 7 (13:23):
Oh is that all?
Speaker 12 (13:25):
That's all? He's planning to be married.
Speaker 7 (13:26):
At five o'clock today.
Speaker 12 (13:29):
I hope you don't think i'd be wearing a cutaway
like this and day ahead of time. Yes, sir, My
nephews whole futures in that envelope. O.
Speaker 6 (13:37):
Look, mister Brown, would you mind sitting down just a
minute while my mother and I go through my room
once more?
Speaker 12 (13:42):
Well, I won't sit down exactly. I don't want to
ruin this coat. I'll just sort of lean against the wall.
But another stick on the fire, Hendry.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
That's what I'm doing.
Speaker 11 (13:59):
Father. Do I smell something burning?
Speaker 5 (14:03):
It's just a fire, I think, boy, these fish.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Your are tasty, aren't they?
Speaker 11 (14:08):
Yes? Has some more?
Speaker 3 (14:09):
They don't mind if I do.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
She're we smarter mother to put this can of sardines
in the knapsack.
Speaker 11 (14:16):
Your mother thinks of everything.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
They're even important. You ought to see the big one.
Speaker 11 (14:21):
I just got big?
Speaker 3 (14:22):
What sordine, mosquito? How do you want shivering?
Speaker 11 (14:27):
Are you no?
Speaker 2 (14:27):
I don't know.
Speaker 9 (14:28):
I'm almost dry. Thirty is wonderful out here in the
woods in October?
Speaker 12 (14:33):
Do you that tang in the air?
Speaker 11 (14:34):
And I'll bet well Brown? Sorry he couldn't come with us.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Who's wedding?
Speaker 5 (14:38):
Did you have to go?
Speaker 12 (14:39):
To?
Speaker 9 (14:39):
His nephew John Warrens? Hmm, twenty minutes to six. They
want to be just about marriage.
Speaker 11 (14:46):
Fathers.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Do any dessert?
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Yes, take this knife and cut a piece of that cake.
Speaker 9 (14:52):
Oh gee, whizz, cut from the end that didn't go
in the lake, you know, soun. As soon as we're
to eat it, I think we'd better move on to
a place where there aren't so many mosquitoes.
Speaker 5 (15:05):
Father, Maybe you did smell something burning?
Speaker 12 (15:07):
What is it?
Speaker 8 (15:08):
She whiz? I didn't know.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
You put your shoes right next to this fire.
Speaker 7 (15:19):
You go through that pile of papers, dear and I'll
go through this one.
Speaker 6 (15:22):
I've been through all of them twice.
Speaker 12 (15:24):
Mother, I just went through the trash pile, and there's
no sign of any license there.
Speaker 10 (15:28):
Will Brown, you haven't been going through the trash pile
in that cutaway?
Speaker 11 (15:32):
Have you?
Speaker 12 (15:32):
I used a long rake?
Speaker 8 (15:34):
Did I just hear the phone?
Speaker 12 (15:36):
If you did, don't answer it. They've been heckling us
for two hours. When we find the envelope, my nephew
can get married, and not until then.
Speaker 7 (15:43):
My goodness, Look at this what mother? I just found
the Christmas card we never open? I wonder car missus
Standish has been so cool.
Speaker 8 (15:52):
To me all year.
Speaker 12 (15:53):
Wait until you see how my nephew reacts to you.
Speaker 7 (15:56):
Where's he going on his honeymoon to New Hampshire, New Hampshire.
Speaker 12 (16:00):
Well they like it thing, they will if they ever
get there. Father.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Where are you here, Homer?
Speaker 8 (16:06):
Well look, they wanted me to tell you the rides
having hysterics.
Speaker 6 (16:10):
Oh my goodness, sh Tomer.
Speaker 13 (16:12):
She says she's never gonna speak to the groom again
as long as she lives.
Speaker 11 (16:15):
That's a fine thing.
Speaker 12 (16:17):
Are all the guests still there?
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Sure?
Speaker 8 (16:19):
When I left? They just finished the wedding cake. Here
I brought your peace.
Speaker 12 (16:24):
Not now, just help us look for that license?
Speaker 11 (16:27):
Well, what did it look like?
Speaker 13 (16:29):
It's in a brown envelope, A brown envelope, Yes, dear,
a brown envelope about.
Speaker 12 (16:37):
This large what's the matter with you, Homer?
Speaker 8 (16:39):
Have you seen it the marriage license?
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (16:42):
No, sir, only you know what I think.
Speaker 8 (16:46):
I think we ought to get in the car and find.
Speaker 12 (16:49):
Mister Alrich Sam Oldrich.
Speaker 8 (16:50):
He's with Henry. I'm positive that'd be the safest thing
to do.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Where is it they're camping out?
Speaker 7 (16:56):
Treat that up near Macaucolly's Rocks.
Speaker 12 (16:57):
Macargo's Rock's way up there.
Speaker 13 (16:59):
We could find him in less than two hours, and
I have a feeling that's the only thing to do.
Speaker 12 (17:05):
Alice, call a waiting and tell him to go ahead
with a reception. We'll get the bride and groom married later.
We'll return to the Aldridge family in just a moment.
His voice has thrilled millions, His curly locks have been
(17:26):
compared to spun gold. His background is that of a
man of the world.

(18:30):
who had lost his diary, Henry has hidden an envelope
which he believes is hers, and he's gone off on a.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Three day camping trip. He's unaware of the.
Speaker 4 (18:38):
Fact that the envelope contains an important marriage license.
Speaker 11 (18:42):
The scene is in the woods, the time is late
at night. Father.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Where are you right here?
Speaker 9 (18:47):
Henry?
Speaker 11 (18:48):
Where all this blanket?
Speaker 10 (18:50):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (18:52):
You think we'll like this place. But in the last
two places we unpacked in.
Speaker 9 (18:55):
There's no mosquito anywhere near here. Now lie out and
get comfortable.
Speaker 5 (19:00):
See, I wish our flashlight hadn't dropped in the water.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
You don't need a flashlight, father, Have you any idea
where we are?
Speaker 11 (19:07):
I know exactly where we are. We're about a mile
and a half from the main line of the.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Y and R Railroad.
Speaker 11 (19:12):
I lie down and go to sleep.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
I am.
Speaker 11 (19:16):
This is the life a son. You think it'll rain,
There isn't a chance. She What was that.
Speaker 9 (19:28):
Just a thunderstorm way over on the other side of
the valley.
Speaker 11 (19:32):
I close your eyes and go to sleep.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
Yes, father, I wonder why the stars aren't out.
Speaker 11 (19:39):
Give them time. They'll come out too bad. Will Brown
and Homer couldn't have come along with us?
Speaker 7 (19:45):
Who's what did you say?
Speaker 9 (19:46):
It was mister Warren, the young businessman who just moved
to town. I expect to do a lot of business
with him. What's that just some animal? Why don't you
just relax, Henry and enjoy nature.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
Sounded gonna be like a train whistle?
Speaker 11 (20:07):
Well it might have been a train over on the
Wye arm Oh.
Speaker 5 (20:13):
Listen, father, don't you think we gotta go some other place.
Speaker 9 (20:15):
Now, Henry, there's no sense in trying to go anyplace else.
Speaker 11 (20:18):
We'll be just as comfortable here as if we were home.
Speaker 12 (20:20):
You're the.
Speaker 11 (20:23):
Father.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
Is it raining where you are?
Speaker 11 (20:28):
Just a little? You better put your blanket over your head?
Speaker 3 (20:35):
For a train whistle sounds closer?
Speaker 9 (20:37):
Well, of course it sounds closer. It's gonna pass within
a mile and a half of it, Father, Father.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
The headlights plenty right at us.
Speaker 11 (20:49):
What's that?
Speaker 4 (20:50):
You feel?
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Only ties under you?
Speaker 13 (20:53):
Do?
Speaker 11 (20:53):
If we get way over here?
Speaker 12 (21:06):
Ray?
Speaker 6 (21:09):
Ray?
Speaker 12 (21:10):
Same? Oh it?
Speaker 8 (21:14):
Do you hear anything?
Speaker 9 (21:15):
Father?
Speaker 12 (21:16):
Oh? Sam?
Speaker 8 (21:18):
Maybe they want a.
Speaker 12 (21:19):
Little father into the woods, Homan. They couldn't have gone.
Speaker 8 (21:22):
What's the matter of father?
Speaker 3 (21:23):
Nothing?
Speaker 12 (21:24):
I just fell down again. I never thought when i'd
put this cutaway on I'd be wearing it out hiking.
Speaker 8 (21:31):
Do you watch your piece of wedding cake?
Speaker 11 (21:33):
Now?
Speaker 12 (21:33):
I do not? All I want is that license here? Homer, China?
Light over this way? What is it? A camp's height?
Somebody cooked their supper here where right there? See sighting?
Can the burnt shoe? Probably a couple of tramps come
on home?
Speaker 8 (21:55):
Is is that rain? I feel?
Speaker 11 (21:58):
Justin leaves? Rustling.
Speaker 8 (22:01):
Was that leads too? Oh?
Speaker 4 (22:04):
Sam?
Speaker 11 (22:05):
Sam?
Speaker 9 (22:20):
Father?
Speaker 3 (22:21):
Are you sure the front door was locked? I am.
Let's try the back door. That's why I'm doing. Don't
you think we ought to call mother?
Speaker 7 (22:29):
No, real softly, there's no use disturbing your mother.
Speaker 11 (22:32):
It's here in midnight.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
Bless you, Thank you, brother.
Speaker 5 (22:37):
Why can't we sleep over at the Browns we drove by.
The lights were still on.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
The guests are still there too. We're not walking in
on any wedding party looking like this. We're the last
people in the world they want.
Speaker 11 (22:46):
To see the nights.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
She even the windows are locked. Father, I know what
we could do? What camp out in the garage?
Speaker 2 (22:55):
No, Henry, your mother never let us hear the last
of us.
Speaker 5 (22:58):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Incidentally, when you see it in the morning, it won't.
Speaker 11 (23:00):
Be necessary to mention the fact that we lost a
frying bear.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
How about your shoe that we lost.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Well, that was an old shoe I bought at least
two years ago.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Hey, wait, I know how we can get here. Where
are you going?
Speaker 11 (23:11):
The cellar door is unlocked?
Speaker 8 (23:13):
Follow me, bless you, thank.
Speaker 6 (23:15):
You, mother.
Speaker 7 (23:30):
Mother, Yes, Mary, I help you, I know it.
Speaker 12 (23:37):
Hello, I know is this.
Speaker 7 (23:39):
Alice all rich?
Speaker 5 (23:40):
Yes? This is Margaret Kuehmer next door.
Speaker 7 (23:43):
Oh, I don't want to love you in the middle
of the night.
Speaker 8 (23:46):
But when I looked out my bedroom window a moment ago,
I saw two men prowling around your house.
Speaker 10 (23:51):
Two men.
Speaker 11 (23:51):
Yes.
Speaker 7 (23:52):
Are you sure everything is long well?
Speaker 9 (23:54):
Yes?
Speaker 7 (23:55):
At least I think everything is well.
Speaker 6 (23:57):
Then I wasn't worried, dear, they're probing.
Speaker 7 (24:01):
Yes, of course I haven't disturbed you.
Speaker 11 (24:04):
Oh no, no, not at all. Good.
Speaker 14 (24:10):
It wasn't anyone, Mary, Just missus Kilmer, Missus Kilmer.
Speaker 7 (24:14):
She says, not to worry, but there were two men outside.
Speaker 6 (24:18):
Two men.
Speaker 7 (24:19):
Now, don't be afraid.
Speaker 14 (24:20):
Every door and window was locked, exitt. Perhaps the cellar
door didn't we locked yet? Mary, We've got to go
down and see whether we did or not at this
time of night, Yes, dear, And then let's not turn.
Speaker 7 (24:31):
On any lights.
Speaker 14 (24:32):
I won't Mother, I don't wait here in the hall, Dear,
While I answered the phone, Who do you suppose it is?
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Hello? Who you know the best man at John Warren's wedding?
Speaker 10 (24:49):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (24:49):
Yes, Do you have any ideas to where mister Brown
former went?
Speaker 10 (24:53):
Yes, up to Macawcay's rocks to look for Henry and
mister Aldridge.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Well, they haven't come back yet.
Speaker 11 (24:58):
We're getting a bit worried.
Speaker 7 (25:00):
My goodness, maybe I better take a couple of guests
and go out and try to find them.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
Well, hope I didn't wake you up.
Speaker 5 (25:06):
Oh no, not at all.
Speaker 7 (25:08):
Bye, goodbye mother.
Speaker 6 (25:11):
Yes, dear, I just ran down and locked the cylind door.
Speaker 5 (25:13):
You locked it.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
I never was so brightened in my life, and I
was just in time.
Speaker 14 (25:17):
Mother.
Speaker 7 (25:18):
I could hear somebody right outside, hear I'm sure we're
perfectly safe. Everything is lost.
Speaker 12 (25:26):
What's that?
Speaker 3 (25:27):
Mary?
Speaker 6 (25:30):
Listen?
Speaker 14 (25:30):
Mary, Mary, someone's putting a ladder against the side of
the house.
Speaker 7 (25:35):
They would climb in one of the windows.
Speaker 6 (25:36):
Shouldn't we call the police?
Speaker 7 (25:37):
Yes, dear, I knew all the time.
Speaker 14 (25:39):
Henry shouldn't have left that ladder lying there on the ground.
Speaker 7 (25:42):
Wasn't it broken?
Speaker 8 (25:43):
I thought it was.
Speaker 6 (25:44):
I don't see how it is.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
What time is it?
Speaker 5 (26:08):
Ch?
Speaker 11 (26:09):
Ten minutes to three?
Speaker 3 (26:11):

Speaker 11 (26:12):
We are.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Mary Yes's father. As long as you live.
Speaker 9 (26:17):
If you ever discover that Henry is keeping another diary,
you are not to hide it in the laundry hamper.
Speaker 11 (26:23):

Thank you, even if you were wearing cocky trousers.
Speaker 5 (26:38):
She it's too bad home where mister Brown didn't get
there for the ceremony.
Speaker 7 (26:41):
Well, my goodness, the way they looked when they did
get back. It's just as well. Anyway, it was a
very nice wedding. Didn't you think the bride looked lovely?
Speaker 13 (26:49):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (26:49):
Yes, mother, it is sleepy perhaps, but loveless.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
I didn't like her so much. She was pretty darn
cool to me.
Speaker 11 (26:58):
You don't say, oh, break you, father, sam Aldrich.
Speaker 7 (27:02):
Are you catching cold?
Speaker 11 (27:03):
Certainly not in October.
Speaker 5 (27:05):

a little too much tang in the air.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
