Welcome to the Great Detectives of Old Time Radio from Boisiidaho.
This is your host, Adam Graham. If you have a comment,

(01:25):
before we do get started, I want to let you
know today's show is brought to you by the support
of our listeners, and you can support the show at
support dot Great Detectives dot net. Now, I said I'd
talk a little bit more about Gil Gordon's career, and
it really was a fascinating multifasted one over radio really
(01:46):
began in the thirties, doing a lot of roles for
wide variety of radio serials. Played the villain in in
Speed Gibson of the International Secret Police. He played Flash Gordon.
(02:06):
He appeared in Front Page's Drama, which was an early
old time radio program, made lots of appearances on the
Lox Radio Theater, and became kind of a key character actor,
appearing on a lot of shows. Really. In nineteen forty
(02:26):
he took on the role of Mayor La Trivia, and
that role in many ways set the direction for a
lot of his career because he would end up playing
a lot of these somewhat stuffed shirt authority figures, and
he would have roles like that in The Great Guildersleeve,
the Halls of Ivy, and his best radio role in
(02:50):
that regard was of course his Osgood Conklin and Armis Brooks.
Over television he continued the same way a lot of
series opposite Lop Seal Ball, and of course he was
also the second mister Wilson on Dennis the Menace. By
Our Radio a little bit more of a variety, particularly
in the early years, and certainly a prova detective series
(03:13):
very different from that. Well, let's go ahead and take
a listen out to today's episode of the Case Book
of Gregory Hood is the Black Museum.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Pat three Wine brings you.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
Nice book of Gregory Hood Tonight.
Speaker 5 (03:36):
The Petrick family, the family that took time to bring
you good wine, invite you to listen to.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
The story of the Black.
Speaker 5 (03:43):
Museum, another exciting adventure from the case Book of Gregory Hood.
And if you don't mind, I'd like to ask you
to do it was something for me and yourself tomorrow
night along with your dinner, Sir Patrie California Burgundy. Patrick
Burgundy is a perfect companion for any kind.
Speaker 6 (04:02):
Of meat or meat dish.
Speaker 5 (04:04):
It's the red wines just as rich in flavor as
it is in colored. It can transform an ordinary meal
into a real occasion. Take even a simple dish like
hamburger steak. Cook that hamburger exactly the way you like rare, medium,
well done, fried, barbecued anyway, then serve it with a
glass of delicious Petrie Burgundy. Why you have a meal
(04:26):
that would make anyone happy, even a connoisseur. Remember when
you serve that Petri Burgundy, you can serve it prouder
because Petrie is the proudest name and the long history
of fine wines. Well, it's Monday night in San Francisco
(04:58):
and we have a weekly date with Gregory to night's rendezvous.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
Is that one of us that he's oldest and best.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
Restaurants there of the titans, furnishing, the tasteful, the service,
the screets, and the Revealscalipini a maison, so Gregory tells me,
is incomparable.
Speaker 6 (05:14):
Let's join. Ll believe me, mister.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Missilippi, you're journey mister Hood of Girt.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
Yes, he tells me that life is incomplain until life
tries Gallupini.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
If you ord of.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
Italian, we do fight ourselves on the dish. Follow me, please,
mister Battell. Mister Hood always has the same table. He
came in a few moments ago.
Speaker 6 (05:35):
What this is his stable?
Speaker 3 (05:37):
But where did he.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
Go into the kitchen?
Speaker 5 (05:39):
Perhaps I know he's an amateur cook of some notes,
he's more than likely the Please who sit down, mister Botel,
and I will see if I can find it. Thanks,
miss Pilippish, here he comes now?
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Oh an't in Gregory, Ollo.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Harry see Battle of Lipers taking care of you. Thank
you b later, Harry. This is quite an occasion.
Speaker 5 (05:57):
I've got it, You've got what the secret. George and
Frank mannin As finally broke down and gave me the
missing link to that scillapini into the ally volumes. I
had a pinchab Reagan, a whist of time, and.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Then no more than a faint murder of top.
Speaker 6 (06:08):
Green minutes and the wine.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
Harry, Ah, that's where the fund start when you pourt Gregory.
Right now, our listeners want an adventure out of the
case book of Gregory. Hoot, It'd be much more profitable
to learn how to cook scallapini if or Italia, Harry,
crime is common good cooking forests may be Gregory, but
I'll take the scalapini later, if you don't mind, for
the next half hour has about Gregory hood versus the underworld.
Speaker 6 (06:30):
Well, if you insist, let me see what story did
I found you last week?
Speaker 4 (06:34):
One that you called the Black Music.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
Ah? Yes, yes, that was not adventure, Harris. I suppose
it really began a couple of months ago in my
apartment on nob Hill. Andy Taylor and I had a
dinner date with some friends, and he'd propped by from Martini.
I thought I had scelled myself with the martinis that night.
But Sandy, h is my best friend as well as
my attorney, is the unfortunate victim of an overdeveloped sense
of punctuality. After half an hour, he was championing at
(06:57):
his bit to be off. Finally, with the devilish cunning
of the season batchelor, I convinced him that one more
martini was almost.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
All right, Gregory, you win.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
The snap of your arm was positively deafening. Sand Me,
let's watch the time the Austins are expecting us at
seven fifteen. They're such nice people that I'm always astonished
as they're gastronomic indifference. Their cook deserves to be stewed
in her own culinary juicing. Pleasant thought, but she'd need
a colossal saucer fan t true. By the way, Sandy,
did you know Tim Brady arrived back in time today?
Speaker 6 (07:28):
Tim Brady?
Speaker 4 (07:29):
Oh? Yes, he's your agent down in Mexico, isn't he?
Speaker 3 (07:31):
Has he unearthed any.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Treasures this trip?
Speaker 5 (07:33):
I haven't seen him yet. He called me just before
you arrived. That's old him to drop by of her drink.
Don't know what happened to him.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
Well, he'd better hurry.
Speaker 6 (07:39):
Oh that must be him.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
There Oh Lord, give him a fast price, Gregory.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
There's a martini left. I'll give him that and then
he can walk.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Down to the top.
Speaker 7 (07:46):
Hello, Jim, let's see you again Gregory.
Speaker 4 (07:49):
Oh oh, Brady, too bad you arrived so late. We've
got a rush. We're behind schedule now, Sorry, but.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
I got tied up. Can I walk down to the
car with you?
Speaker 6 (07:56):
Just what I was going to suggest? In the meanwhile,
there's one martini.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
That homes not me longer, Gregory, ain't. Thanks?
Speaker 6 (08:02):
Are things down in Mexico.
Speaker 5 (08:04):
Not too promising for Gregory of Hood to import it?
Speaker 6 (08:06):
Government control?
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Yeah, most of the good stuff sewed up.
Speaker 5 (08:09):
And smuggling is not what it used to be here.
Did you get anything really?
Speaker 6 (08:12):
Choice?
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Well, just the one item. Gonna say, honey, what did
you think of it?
Speaker 5 (08:15):
So I went through your last shipment at the warehouse
that I didn't notice anything special?
Speaker 4 (08:19):
And what did you dig up?
Speaker 6 (08:20):
Brady on Knight?
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Sacrificial Knights. It's a genuine pre.
Speaker 5 (08:23):
Conqueror item of city in blade, cop stone, handled and
it's guaranteed to have been using human sacrifices for the war.
Got good work, of course you didn't send it with
a regular consignment no special.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Packaging, but it should have been here by now.
Speaker 6 (08:34):
It sounds like a real time did you pay a
big price for it?
Speaker 4 (08:37):
All?
Speaker 6 (08:38):
Got it for a song?
Speaker 3 (08:38):
But there's a reason for that.
Speaker 4 (08:40):
It's previous owner just got himself murdered with it.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
From what I hear they usually do.
Speaker 6 (08:44):
Huh. The knife's got a curse on it.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
Gregory, whoever has it in his possession, is supposed to
die soon and violently. Dear me, polish up my steel whiskers.
But in the meantime, I guess we must be moving
the one who.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Walked down at the car with us.
Speaker 6 (08:56):
Oh sure, Gregory, we'll get our hat standing with you.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
I mean, I've really got you on your wonders. We'll
never see.
Speaker 6 (09:13):
Here's the car, Gregory.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
Barry would have to rush to him. That's okay. I've
got a day too.
Speaker 6 (09:16):
We'll see the opos morning.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
Well, I'll go over to.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
The other stuff with him. Oh hello, mister Markham, here
ready when you get back to town.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
That's this afternoon.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Oh this is mister Hood, that's the teller.
Speaker 6 (09:26):
I don't know your Gregory Hood.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
Aren't you ahead of the important firms?
Speaker 6 (09:30):
Right? I have a neighbor of yours.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Just a block down the hill from here.
Speaker 6 (09:34):
I've wanted to meet you.
Speaker 8 (09:36):
I think I've got some stuff that will interest you
quite a bit.
Speaker 6 (09:40):
Yes, I'm afraid we have to go, mister Markham. What
kind of stuff are you referring to?
Speaker 8 (09:45):
How would you like to see the very hatchet with
which the boat and murders.
Speaker 6 (09:49):
Would to make it?
Speaker 8 (09:50):
You have it, mister Markin, and more gracious, I think
I have one of the finest collections of murder weapons
in the world. Why not stop and see them?
Speaker 4 (09:58):
It would only take a few second.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
How about tomorrow, mister Martin.
Speaker 8 (10:02):
Well, I'm afraid I'll be out of town for the
next few days.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
I will not come now.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
Well, Greggory, we can't.
Speaker 6 (10:07):
Or quarter of an hour won't hurt Sandy.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
Come on, you can figure with missus Olson on fault, Oh, Gregory, Here,
mister hood is the carving knife which Henry White, to
Pete Montgommer, used to decapitate his wife.
Speaker 6 (10:28):
I remember the case. They never did find her head,
did they?
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Strikes me as a rather grizzly hobby, mister Markham, though
I'm sure your collection's priceless to.
Speaker 8 (10:35):
A student of criminology like myself.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
Mister Taylor, it's far from grizzly.
Speaker 8 (10:39):
Naturally, I knew mister Hood's reputation as.
Speaker 5 (10:41):
An amateur detective, and I was certain he'd be inter
see I am, I am immense.
Speaker 6 (10:46):
It's a superb black museum.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Just think of it. Every one of these choice implements
have actually tasted human blood, and usually in a celebrated case.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
And that's why I regard the hobby as.
Speaker 6 (10:55):
A grizzly one.
Speaker 5 (10:56):
You wouldn't consider selling any of these trophies, would you,
mister martam telling you print Scott knows would I'd like
to buy more to add to the collection?
Speaker 6 (11:05):
It concuse me, mister Markham, he is for? What is?
If your wife would like to speak to you for
a moment? He's in the dance.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
Oh very well, I'll be back in a moment.
Speaker 5 (11:12):
Gentlemen, I look after my guests for I'm Peel Jackson,
mister Markham secretary, you are, mister Gregory Hood?
Speaker 6 (11:18):
Answer yes, and this is Sam Taylor.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
Gregory is nearly half time.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
As soon as mister Markham gets back, will be on
our way. Mister Hood. I've got a business proposition to
make you well. I'm a businessman. What proposition. You're an
import with connections.
Speaker 5 (11:31):
All over the world, mister Hoods, it has to me
that occasionally you would be bound to come across something
that would be a perfect addition to mister Markham's museum.
Speaker 6 (11:38):
I've just been thinking the same thing myself. Me too.
Speaker 5 (11:41):
It would be the first opportunity I've ever had to
put my interest in murder on a strictly commercial basis.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
The propositions to Jackson.
Speaker 5 (11:47):
I'd love to handle such a deal on a commission that.
Speaker 6 (11:50):
Hardly seems ethical.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
Mister Markham's your employer, and he has more money than
he knows what to do with. We told jack the
price up and split the extra three ways. I don't
want to appear stuffy, mister Jackson, but my firm doesn't
do business that way. No dice, my friends now here
he comes an hour with his wife. Please don't be peaping,
I said, yet, little and I want you to meet
my wife. My dear, we've heard of missus Markham and
(12:13):
missus Taylor.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
How you do.
Speaker 7 (12:15):
I was telling Howard that I was so anxious to
meet you, mister Hurd, but I wish he'd warned me
when he's saying.
Speaker 9 (12:20):
This is I look perfectly awful.
Speaker 6 (12:22):
You look charming, missus Markham. But I'm afraid that we
must be getting along.
Speaker 9 (12:27):
The collection.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
Yes, yes, it's definitely.
Speaker 9 (12:30):
That's how I didn't show you my contribution. He doesn't
seem it's worthy of the rest of the stuff. I mean,
here and let me show you.
Speaker 6 (12:38):
Here's this for the moment. It's never been proven to
be your friendy.
Speaker 9 (12:42):
So howard both, let me keep it this collection, it's
vanished to the study.
Speaker 6 (12:46):
What is the treasure? A dating question?
Speaker 9 (12:49):
Somebody is supposed to have conscious fifty.
Speaker 7 (12:51):
Girls and on the head with its forty three times
before to the study for the test, I brought it
in China down.
Speaker 6 (12:57):
Oh is it on the desk? Yeah, y's a hood.
Speaker 9 (13:03):
Yes, you have to talk about the question.
Speaker 6 (13:06):
The boy is screaming, Okay, let's.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
Not talk about him. Well the last night you have
to pay yes, yes, and I'm late for it now
blonde bring white hair. And in the late fifties, she
must have a daughter. She has to play chow plans
for pirblade.
Speaker 9 (13:22):
That's when you want. You have to go yes once
to drop five over. How are you going to club?
Speaker 6 (13:31):
You're crazy about how it? Don't you? Oh?
Speaker 9 (13:33):
So the tenant boy at the nineteen hundred and one
n Latin. Yes, if I'm not doing something about it.
Speaker 6 (13:45):
I'm suffering from a rush of epics to the head.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
That's unfortunate.
Speaker 9 (13:51):
Yes, this ws a my living a numbers in book, and.
Speaker 6 (13:55):
Let's go.
Speaker 9 (13:58):
This side.
Speaker 5 (14:01):
Where?
Speaker 4 (14:01):
Lord?
Speaker 6 (14:02):
Do you think it's so authentic?
Speaker 5 (14:04):
I rather doubt it's, mister Marsham that then it's hard
to say, Oh, Sanday, what's the time?
Speaker 4 (14:09):
Seven o'clock?
Speaker 6 (14:09):
Cracker? Ain't that an o'clock?
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Sandy? You're a dope?
Speaker 6 (14:11):
Why didn't you keep an eye on your watch? You're late?
Speaker 5 (14:24):
All right, Gregory, I'll come up to your apartment for
John's one glass of port. But Padros was worse than usual,
an horse in a standay, And I can't think why
even the Austin folks decided that brilliant team is a
good spaces for a salad dressing.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Oh it wasn't that bad, Gregory.
Speaker 6 (14:41):
I'll never quite understand you.
Speaker 5 (14:43):
What makes you say that you were equally charming both
to missus Markham, who had all the subtlety of a steamroller,
and to miss Austen, was really a.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
Very nice girl. Obviously you didn't like either of us.
Speaker 6 (14:53):
What kind of a woman do you like? Where's my keys? Oh?
Speaker 3 (14:56):
Here we are?
Speaker 6 (14:58):
What kind of a woman do I know? I don't
have much sandies, just an off beat sense of humor.
Speaker 5 (15:04):
Great usual in a certain way with nim, I shouldn't
be too hard, fine nose.
Speaker 6 (15:10):
That's what I had in mind, was something like, yes,
just might easily be someone.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Very like you?
Speaker 4 (15:18):
Who she or she's just?
Speaker 6 (15:22):
Oh? And who are you? And how did you get
in here?
Speaker 9 (15:25):
It's managed to man's service. He thought you might take
me to stay.
Speaker 6 (15:30):
That's friendly of him.
Speaker 9 (15:31):
But I have not come here to this man at you?
You don't have I come here to sit down. I
have come here to warn you about the Knight.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
What's nice?
Speaker 6 (15:39):
The facts?
Speaker 9 (15:40):
Your knife of the which approaches the god of wars.
That's nice belongs to the followers the god. You must
not keep it, misterhood.
Speaker 5 (15:48):
Listen to what did I say?
Speaker 9 (15:50):
Whoever onto my friends will die, We will die by
the Knight?
Speaker 4 (15:57):
Are you sure you haven't reading too many mystery stories?
Speaker 6 (15:59):
And lady, I'm in front of me.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
I've come here to.
Speaker 6 (16:01):
Bring you warning. That's very nice of you. Who are you?
Speaker 9 (16:04):
I am obvious as fat as I am and I
think I.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
Want you to others follow you while.
Speaker 6 (16:15):
You're on the knight with that is, if you must
threaten me. I do wish to sit down. We all
be more comfortable. That is all I have to say.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Remember what I have said.
Speaker 6 (16:25):
Now, wait a minute, Joe fathers has been a one
track conversation. Why do you have to leave?
Speaker 4 (16:29):
To leave? Good?
Speaker 6 (16:30):
I'll be back in a je sending why do you
par I'm not. I'm just being a gentleman and seeing
you to your card. Who's thinking here?
Speaker 9 (16:37):
Nobody?
Speaker 6 (16:38):
Where do you live?
Speaker 9 (16:39):
I should not tell you?
Speaker 6 (16:40):
What's your phone?
Speaker 3 (16:40):
Have no phone?
Speaker 6 (16:41):
Mis Douglas sixty nine seven? What's your other name? Bron?
You can't here to try and scare me? And now
I'm scaring you, fellow. Oh well, let me drive you home.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Good.
Speaker 6 (16:51):
Oh we'll meet again. I promise you will meet again.
Speaker 5 (16:56):
And the nice Greggory should have been here a week
ago instead of waiting, arrived this morning. The strange things
happening in the custom opened the window when it's him
and stuffy in anyway, it was well worth waiting for.
Speaker 6 (17:16):
It's a beautiful specimen and number what the girl said
last night? Gregory? Whoever owns the knife wrongfully? Will die?
Was that girl?
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Gregg?
Speaker 5 (17:24):
Last name, address, telephone number unknown, But he put on
quite a convincing act. He didn't gam it us herself, though,
I'll find out if are up to it. Oh, this
nice ExPASy, I'll hold it up by the windows, candy
and in fact a lot of money, Gregory if I
feel it, Markham and.
Speaker 6 (17:40):
Probably give his I teeth for it. It is, and
there's his eye, teeth undoubtedly detachable.
Speaker 4 (17:45):
I don't think it would do much of a bargain.
Speaker 6 (17:48):
Look at the blood stains on this probably fifteenth century.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
Oh month, somebody chucked a knife through the.
Speaker 4 (17:56):
Window, and there's an office building opposite.
Speaker 6 (17:58):
But I can't see any I didn't expect you to.
You're dealing with an expert. You only missed me by
a few inches, hopfully bad to the redwood paneling, though, yes,
I see, I'm a nice at modern Nate Gregory.
Speaker 9 (18:10):
But it's the same pattern as the one I got
in Mexico.
Speaker 6 (18:12):
Shall I call a police? Oh Brady, this is hood company,
bas we can take care of it well. And what
are you going to do? Banks?
Speaker 5 (18:17):
This unknown individual for testing me a nice new import
for free and plan to thank him in person as
soon as possible. Gregory is, I'm crazy about riding in
(18:39):
the open section of these table cars, good am, I,
but we've been up knob.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
Hill twice and down at once. This is the second
trip down.
Speaker 5 (18:46):
Where is it getting it up and down knob Hill?
Table cars are conducive to clear thinking.
Speaker 6 (18:51):
I think I've been thinking.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
Man get rid of that sacrificial night, the only sensible
thing to do.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
And you've got a perfect market.
Speaker 6 (18:57):
You mean mister Markham's Black Museum.
Speaker 4 (18:59):
Sure, I know, Sandy, but there's something about this whole
business that smacks.
Speaker 6 (19:03):
The fourth rate melodrama. Gregory.
Speaker 5 (19:05):
I'd say turned the case over to the police and
sell the.
Speaker 6 (19:07):
Knife to mock and admit that I'm scared. No, standy,
that isn't what I mentioned.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Another night thrown after this time? It is really close then,
the fourth rate melodrama or not.
Speaker 6 (19:19):
I'm beginning to think I'm unpopular.
Speaker 8 (19:30):
As diction.
Speaker 5 (19:31):
Yes, take this letter please here, mister Harris, regard to
your letter of the sixteenth instant. As attorney for the
firm of Gregory Hood Importers, I hereby give notice and
your receipt of this registered letter will acknowledge such notice,
whereas the party of the first.
Speaker 7 (19:50):
Mister, Oh, yes, he's right here, thank you.
Speaker 5 (19:57):
Mistake, Yes, Gregory, Sandy, I'm phoning from a oh very unusual.
Speaker 10 (20:01):
Yes, this is sad.
Speaker 6 (20:03):
They let me tell you something.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
I don't look.
Speaker 6 (20:05):
He's crazy to buy the sacrificial knives.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
Good sell it, Gregory.
Speaker 6 (20:07):
But I had a right idea supposing this guy was
purchasing me with knives. Decides to take a crack of
fox if we would.
Speaker 5 (20:14):
We don't worry, Gregory. I'll work out out formal waiver
of damages or something. I'm glad you've come to your senses, though,
and decided to sell.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
I just wanted to know what, Gregory, what's wrong?
Speaker 5 (20:25):
I heard a man scream, hope, Gregory, Gregory, Gregory. You'll
hear the rest of Gregory who had story in just
a second. So in the meantime, I'm going to tell
(20:47):
you about a white wine. It's really marvelous with chicken.
The wine is Petrie California So Turned. Petrie So Turned
is a delicate, subtle wine, beautifully.
Speaker 6 (20:59):
Golden in colored.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
One sip and you'll know that you've discovered the kind
of wine you've long looked for And let me tell you.
Petre so turned is not only great with chicken. Wait,
did you serve it with fish or any other kind
of seafood? It's just about well, I've sort of run
out of words. You just taste Petrey so turn yourself
and you'll know how good it really is. Remember, there
(21:22):
are lots of wine, so be sure you get a
good wine. Always get a Petree wine. Well, it was
a fine place to lead me. Cliff Hayes, Were you
killed Gregory this early in the series, No, Harry by
a happy work of faith.
Speaker 6 (21:37):
I wasn't too.
Speaker 5 (21:37):
Oh, I'm so glad that Sandy was worried, though he was.
He tried unsuccessfully traced the call and waited anxiously.
Speaker 6 (21:43):
Until I called him back.
Speaker 4 (21:47):
Yes, Gregory, you're scared the daylight, thought him. Sorry, I
got what happened another night?
Speaker 6 (21:53):
Throw n't you?
Speaker 5 (21:53):
Yes?
Speaker 6 (21:53):
But this time an aby barfly lights in front of me.
That was the yelp you must he did it? Get
him picked his shoulders hing cereal, except that.
Speaker 10 (22:00):
He might sign the plane.
Speaker 4 (22:02):
It made me mad.
Speaker 8 (22:02):
It's giving me an idea.
Speaker 5 (22:04):
I think I know how to settle this business now, Gregory,
leave it alone or at least let me.
Speaker 6 (22:07):
Okay, okay, counselor you're enough beat me at Sam Mackman's
office area half out. Who's Sam Macklin? What the heck
tell you when I see you?
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Well?
Speaker 6 (22:24):
Sam House business, ah, greg and business ain't what he
used to me. I don't think it ever has been.
What can I do for you this time? Greg? You're
chasing down the phone number of another ballet dancer. I
do want to find a dancer, but I assure you
it's strictly business this time.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
M Well, I'll see what I can do.
Speaker 5 (22:40):
I want the addresses of any female Spanish dancers now
in San Francisco.
Speaker 6 (22:44):
Spanish dances.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
I can find you one hundred Mexican ones.
Speaker 6 (22:47):
No, no, Sam, real Spanish dancers, not Mexicans.
Speaker 5 (22:50):
Okay, i'll'll through my book, and while you're at it,
see if you can tack down any knife throwers for me.
Speaker 11 (22:56):
Spanish enters and knife throwers. Gregory, My boy, your taste
is certainly changing, Gregory.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
Why are we doing a round to the night.
Speaker 5 (23:17):
I'm trying to catch the right floor show, the one that.
Speaker 4 (23:19):
Has a certain Spanish dancer.
Speaker 5 (23:20):
But I think we will recognize where does the Spanish
dancer fit into the picture of records. That girl Killar,
the so called Aztec priestess, descried to scare me last night.
Speaker 6 (23:28):
I have a hunt. She's a dancer.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
What makes you think that? Well, at first, when I
heard that luscious voice, I thought she might have been
a singer.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
But when I saw the way she.
Speaker 5 (23:35):
Moved around and how she skimmed down the stairs, I
changed my mind.
Speaker 6 (23:38):
Yes, Andy, I have a definite hunt.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
She's a dancer.
Speaker 6 (23:41):
One thing's certain. He's obviously not an ask how do
you figure that one?
Speaker 5 (23:44):
Not?
Speaker 4 (23:45):
She said, how do you say in English a taker?
Speaker 6 (23:48):
As taka? She gave the z a th eight sound.
Speaker 5 (23:52):
That's Castilian, Spanish, Mexican or any Spanish American would say
as taker. Oh, she's a phony, and that's why we're
calling the knight. I'm trying to find that.
Speaker 6 (24:01):
I hope he can lead us to whoever's at the
back of this night's throwing business.
Speaker 5 (24:04):
Well, we've seen three Spanish dancers so far, and you've
made two dates.
Speaker 6 (24:07):
I hope this is the right place.
Speaker 5 (24:09):
Do a it is it is?
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Let's setting out in the potlight, man, Dad.
Speaker 6 (24:16):
It's the same girl, all right. How soon as the
numbers over. We're going to persuade her to take a.
Speaker 5 (24:20):
Cab ride with us to the officers are putting company.
Speaker 10 (24:22):
And put mister rud why are you taking me from
the club. It must downstair camp to night.
Speaker 6 (24:38):
Oh, don't worry to last.
Speaker 5 (24:39):
I'll get you back there in time and stay to
watch you right now. We want information who hired you
to come up and time scare me last.
Speaker 9 (24:46):
Night, It would not be there to stay you you
turned me.
Speaker 8 (24:48):
It was only a joke, and you pay me way.
It would not be right to give the joke away.
Speaker 5 (24:52):
Listen to I'm a lawyer, and I assure you you're
not mixed up with a joke. You're mixed up with
attempted murder. Not He said, you must believe me all right,
that they just answer my questions and you'll be all right.
Speaker 6 (25:06):
It's try to murder you me through apparently, though of
course they really after someone else.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
How do you figure that, Gregory?
Speaker 5 (25:11):
If they were really after me, no expert knife throwers
coul have failed in three attempts. Therefore, the whole act
of sending Pala with the warning and the night drawing
was a deliberate plan.
Speaker 6 (25:19):
To scare me in selling the knife fairs.
Speaker 5 (25:21):
Now, who would be the obvious customer? Mister MARKT sure?
So what we've uncovered now is a plan to murder
Mark them I.
Speaker 6 (25:28):
Understand it now.
Speaker 5 (25:28):
By making the killing seem to hinge on the knife,
it cast suspicion away from a personal motive for killing Mark.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
Harry perver of you to figure that, Gregory?
Speaker 6 (25:36):
If I may say so, you may have hand it.
Speaker 9 (25:38):
Please me to what I do not understand what you
bought to talk about.
Speaker 6 (25:41):
I'll explain it. That suffer, lad, Now just tell me
who hired you.
Speaker 8 (25:45):
I do not know his name is, and I hardly
saw his face. He came to the club and spoke
to me outside the stage doors.
Speaker 9 (25:51):
It was very dark.
Speaker 6 (25:52):
I would that to him again, but you'd know his voice, Pala,
wouldn't you?
Speaker 5 (25:56):
Oh?
Speaker 9 (25:56):
Yeah, I never forget a voice.
Speaker 6 (25:57):
Ah. Then we'll say, but Gregory, why.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
Are we going to your office instead of Markham's house.
You know my methods and me as well as you do,
which is that you make them up as you go along.
All right, but you do recall one of my basic ideas.
Find out what you want to know, then see the
guy that knows it. That's why We're going to the
office right now. I want to see our Mexican expert
Tim Brady.
Speaker 6 (26:28):
So that's the situation. To him, somebody's scheming to murder Markham.
Speaker 5 (26:32):
Doesn't seem possible. Yesilla, Gregory, have you any idea?
Speaker 4 (26:36):
Who's the back of it?
Speaker 6 (26:38):
All?
Speaker 2 (26:38):
Right?
Speaker 6 (26:38):
Pillar?
Speaker 9 (26:39):
Now here are mister Brady?
Speaker 3 (26:41):
You heard me?
Speaker 8 (26:42):
Hi, Reckon, thank your voice?
Speaker 6 (26:43):
Are you crazy?
Speaker 5 (26:45):
It had to be Tim, because Pilla approached me with
the warning before I got the knife. At that time,
you were the only man in California who knew that
I was going to receive an ancient sacrificial knight.
Speaker 6 (26:54):
You didn't foresee the delay.
Speaker 5 (26:56):
Gregory, You're nuts. What possible motive could I have? You
know the Markhams you introduced me, and the motive for
any man of average susceptibility is obvious enough after you've
met missus Markham.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
Very ingenious you could bring in Tilar as a witness
of court.
Speaker 5 (27:11):
Will Brady and my old pale Lieutenant Silbers at the
San Francisco Police has put a tracerro out for me
for night brawers. I imagine you told the man who
threw the knives that it was a joke too. This
business of throwing near misses. The final knife that would
not have missed Markham, I imagine you planned.
Speaker 6 (27:25):
To wield yourself. You're making a good case, Gregory, But
of what No crime has been committed, Yes, all of
otters a detective who forced all the murder for a chase.
But it seems to lave me in the clear, not
priced him.
Speaker 5 (27:36):
That man who was wounded in the bar when the
knife nickname this afternoon infection set him.
Speaker 6 (27:41):
He died in the hospital an hour ago. I'm afraid
of the murder charge, Brady.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
He died, Okay, you're the only ones to come up.
Speaker 9 (27:52):
That's a honey knocked him out.
Speaker 5 (27:54):
Told and to think that I selected that you had
to represent our Mexican interests.
Speaker 6 (28:00):
Call the police, Sandy, when you went right away.
Speaker 9 (28:01):
You did not hurt yourself, be though.
Speaker 6 (28:03):
No, I just ruse my knuckles a Sanday.
Speaker 5 (28:06):
Tim pulled a gun on as I imagine, we can
book him on the source of intention to commit murder
country Sure, But this man that cried, Gregory, why didn't
you tell me? Because I only dreamed it up just now.
It seems the one way to make Tim Joy's hands.
Speaker 4 (28:18):
Gregory, you're completely unprincipal.
Speaker 5 (28:20):
Sure, I think you're wonderful as when Tim pulled that gun.
Just now you called me Gregory, why go back to mister.
Speaker 9 (28:31):
Craig. But Pa, you must take me back to my club.
Speaker 5 (28:34):
Soon, just as soon as the police get here to
allow the two of us take you back, and later
on tonight we will really show you the town. Oh
not may, Gregory, I'm going home, marry and the children.
Speaker 6 (28:43):
Give me police requarter, then plied, I will do the
town alone.
Speaker 4 (28:46):
It's the date seller, very much, your redeef, greg.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
Well, that story was a duty, greg But there's one
thing I'd like to know. I'd like to know if
if I kept my datist till Oh yeah, that's right.
But you know I was going to ask that everybody
else does.
Speaker 6 (29:22):
Why not you? And I can tell you that your
next question is going to be so what till our
phone number right? And your answer?
Speaker 5 (29:30):
As they say at the phone company, I'm sorry, we
cannot devout that information. Okay, okay, let's order dinner and
to get good shall we try the Sciliponi George to
tell you?
Speaker 6 (29:41):
Sure, let's see wine?
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Shall I order?
Speaker 6 (29:45):
As if you don't know?
Speaker 5 (29:47):
All right, go ahead, kid me but you know as
well as either that we can't mess with Petrie.
Speaker 6 (29:51):
One say why.
Speaker 5 (29:52):
The Petrie family has been making wine for generations. The
art of making fine wine is their hares, a heritage
handed on down from father to son, from father to son.
No wonder Petrie wine is so good, and no wonder
the Patrie business is grown and grown through that.
Speaker 4 (30:12):
Today the Petrie family.
Speaker 5 (30:14):
Are America's lightest independent wine making. Yes, the making of
Petrie wine is a family affair, and the Petrie family
intends to keep it that way because by so doing
they can be sure that every bottle.
Speaker 6 (30:27):
Of wine that bears the name Petrie is and always
will be good wine.
Speaker 5 (30:34):
Well, Gregory, what story out of your casebook are you
planning to tell us next week?
Speaker 6 (30:38):
A little tale that concerns the date at the top
of the mark Hofkins Hotills, and a certain gunman by
the name of lem Carker, who was convinced that I'd
looked so much better as a course to you next
Monday area.
Speaker 5 (31:06):
The Case Book of Gregory Hood is written by Dennis
Green and Anthony Boucher. Original music is composed and played
by Dean Fossman. Gail Gordon plays the part of Gregory
Hood and Sanderson Taylor is played by Art Gilmore. The
Battery Wine Company of San Francisco, California and brite you
(31:30):
to tune in again next week, same time, same state.
The case Book of Gregory Hood comes to you from.
Speaker 4 (31:36):
Our Hollywood studio.
Speaker 5 (31:41):
This is Harry Bartel saying good night for the Pattery family.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
Welcome back. I guess I got a reminder of the
power of radio as I was sitting here kind of
feeling very roast by the Black Museum, which was not
actually there was just reading a radio script, but I
was just kind of like, oh, that's ikey. But it's
(32:14):
really does kind of establish the character of Gregory hooding
you can kind of see certainly the character's definitely a
connoisseur and with very particular taste, but not quite a snobbish,
which I think makes an interesting character.
Speaker 4 (32:31):
All right.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Well, oh and I also love the joke about when
Harry Bartell asked.
Speaker 4 (32:39):
Him did you get killed?
Speaker 2 (32:41):
Which was obviously an absurd question, and his answer was
equally absurd. What this early in the series was cute.
All right, Well, that'll do it for today. Join us
back here tomorrow and we'll continue on with the star
of Cape Town Matter. And we'll be back next Tuesday
with another episode of the Case Book of Gregory hud.

(01:25):
before we do get started, I want to let you
know today's show is brought to you by the support
of our listeners, and you can support the show at
support dot Great Detectives dot net. Now, I said I'd
talk a little bit more about Gil Gordon's career, and
it really was a fascinating multifasted one over radio really
(01:46):
began in the thirties, doing a lot of roles for
wide variety of radio serials. Played the villain in in
Speed Gibson of the International Secret Police. He played Flash Gordon.
(02:06):
He appeared in Front Page's Drama, which was an early
old time radio program, made lots of appearances on the
Lox Radio Theater, and became kind of a key character actor,
appearing on a lot of shows. Really. In nineteen forty
(02:26):
he took on the role of Mayor La Trivia, and
that role in many ways set the direction for a
lot of his career because he would end up playing
a lot of these somewhat stuffed shirt authority figures, and
he would have roles like that in The Great Guildersleeve,
the Halls of Ivy, and his best radio role in
(02:50):
that regard was of course his Osgood Conklin and Armis Brooks.
Over television he continued the same way a lot of
series opposite Lop Seal Ball, and of course he was
also the second mister Wilson on Dennis the Menace. By
Our Radio a little bit more of a variety, particularly
in the early years, and certainly a prova detective series
(03:13):
very different from that. Well, let's go ahead and take
a listen out to today's episode of the Case Book
of Gregory Hood is the Black Museum.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Pat three Wine brings you.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
Nice book of Gregory Hood Tonight.
Speaker 5 (03:36):
The Petrick family, the family that took time to bring
you good wine, invite you to listen to.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
The story of the Black.
Speaker 5 (03:43):
Museum, another exciting adventure from the case Book of Gregory Hood.
And if you don't mind, I'd like to ask you
to do it was something for me and yourself tomorrow
night along with your dinner, Sir Patrie California Burgundy. Patrick
Burgundy is a perfect companion for any kind.
Speaker 6 (04:02):
Of meat or meat dish.
Speaker 5 (04:04):
It's the red wines just as rich in flavor as
it is in colored. It can transform an ordinary meal
into a real occasion. Take even a simple dish like
hamburger steak. Cook that hamburger exactly the way you like rare, medium,
well done, fried, barbecued anyway, then serve it with a
glass of delicious Petrie Burgundy. Why you have a meal
(04:26):
that would make anyone happy, even a connoisseur. Remember when
you serve that Petri Burgundy, you can serve it prouder
because Petrie is the proudest name and the long history
of fine wines. Well, it's Monday night in San Francisco
(04:58):
and we have a weekly date with Gregory to night's rendezvous.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
Is that one of us that he's oldest and best.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
Restaurants there of the titans, furnishing, the tasteful, the service,
the screets, and the Revealscalipini a maison, so Gregory tells me,
is incomparable.
Speaker 6 (05:14):
Let's join. Ll believe me, mister.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Missilippi, you're journey mister Hood of Girt.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
Yes, he tells me that life is incomplain until life
tries Gallupini.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
If you ord of.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
Italian, we do fight ourselves on the dish. Follow me, please,
mister Battell. Mister Hood always has the same table. He
came in a few moments ago.
Speaker 6 (05:35):
What this is his stable?
Speaker 3 (05:37):
But where did he.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
Go into the kitchen?
Speaker 5 (05:39):
Perhaps I know he's an amateur cook of some notes,
he's more than likely the Please who sit down, mister Botel,
and I will see if I can find it. Thanks,
miss Pilippish, here he comes now?
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Oh an't in Gregory, Ollo.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Harry see Battle of Lipers taking care of you. Thank
you b later, Harry. This is quite an occasion.
Speaker 5 (05:57):
I've got it, You've got what the secret. George and
Frank mannin As finally broke down and gave me the
missing link to that scillapini into the ally volumes. I
had a pinchab Reagan, a whist of time, and.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Then no more than a faint murder of top.
Speaker 6 (06:08):
Green minutes and the wine.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
Harry, Ah, that's where the fund start when you pourt Gregory.
Right now, our listeners want an adventure out of the
case book of Gregory. Hoot, It'd be much more profitable
to learn how to cook scallapini if or Italia, Harry,
crime is common good cooking forests may be Gregory, but
I'll take the scalapini later, if you don't mind, for
the next half hour has about Gregory hood versus the underworld.
Speaker 6 (06:30):
Well, if you insist, let me see what story did
I found you last week?
Speaker 4 (06:34):
One that you called the Black Music.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
Ah? Yes, yes, that was not adventure, Harris. I suppose
it really began a couple of months ago in my
apartment on nob Hill. Andy Taylor and I had a
dinner date with some friends, and he'd propped by from Martini.
I thought I had scelled myself with the martinis that night.
But Sandy, h is my best friend as well as
my attorney, is the unfortunate victim of an overdeveloped sense
of punctuality. After half an hour, he was championing at
(06:57):
his bit to be off. Finally, with the devilish cunning
of the season batchelor, I convinced him that one more
martini was almost.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
All right, Gregory, you win.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
The snap of your arm was positively deafening. Sand Me,
let's watch the time the Austins are expecting us at
seven fifteen. They're such nice people that I'm always astonished
as they're gastronomic indifference. Their cook deserves to be stewed
in her own culinary juicing. Pleasant thought, but she'd need
a colossal saucer fan t true. By the way, Sandy,
did you know Tim Brady arrived back in time today?
Speaker 6 (07:28):
Tim Brady?
Speaker 4 (07:29):
Oh? Yes, he's your agent down in Mexico, isn't he?
Speaker 3 (07:31):
Has he unearthed any.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Treasures this trip?
Speaker 5 (07:33):
I haven't seen him yet. He called me just before
you arrived. That's old him to drop by of her drink.
Don't know what happened to him.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
Well, he'd better hurry.
Speaker 6 (07:39):
Oh that must be him.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
There Oh Lord, give him a fast price, Gregory.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
There's a martini left. I'll give him that and then
he can walk.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Down to the top.
Speaker 7 (07:46):
Hello, Jim, let's see you again Gregory.
Speaker 4 (07:49):
Oh oh, Brady, too bad you arrived so late. We've
got a rush. We're behind schedule now, Sorry, but.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
I got tied up. Can I walk down to the
car with you?
Speaker 6 (07:56):
Just what I was going to suggest? In the meanwhile,
there's one martini.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
That homes not me longer, Gregory, ain't. Thanks?
Speaker 6 (08:02):
Are things down in Mexico.
Speaker 5 (08:04):
Not too promising for Gregory of Hood to import it?
Speaker 6 (08:06):
Government control?
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Yeah, most of the good stuff sewed up.
Speaker 5 (08:09):
And smuggling is not what it used to be here.
Did you get anything really?
Speaker 6 (08:12):
Choice?
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Well, just the one item. Gonna say, honey, what did
you think of it?
Speaker 5 (08:15):
So I went through your last shipment at the warehouse
that I didn't notice anything special?
Speaker 4 (08:19):
And what did you dig up?
Speaker 6 (08:20):
Brady on Knight?
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Sacrificial Knights. It's a genuine pre.
Speaker 5 (08:23):
Conqueror item of city in blade, cop stone, handled and
it's guaranteed to have been using human sacrifices for the war.
Got good work, of course you didn't send it with
a regular consignment no special.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Packaging, but it should have been here by now.
Speaker 6 (08:34):
It sounds like a real time did you pay a
big price for it?
Speaker 4 (08:37):
All?
Speaker 6 (08:38):
Got it for a song?
Speaker 3 (08:38):
But there's a reason for that.
Speaker 4 (08:40):
It's previous owner just got himself murdered with it.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
From what I hear they usually do.
Speaker 6 (08:44):
Huh. The knife's got a curse on it.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
Gregory, whoever has it in his possession, is supposed to
die soon and violently. Dear me, polish up my steel whiskers.
But in the meantime, I guess we must be moving
the one who.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Walked down at the car with us.
Speaker 6 (08:56):
Oh sure, Gregory, we'll get our hat standing with you.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
I mean, I've really got you on your wonders. We'll
never see.
Speaker 6 (09:13):
Here's the car, Gregory.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
Barry would have to rush to him. That's okay. I've
got a day too.
Speaker 6 (09:16):
We'll see the opos morning.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
Well, I'll go over to.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
The other stuff with him. Oh hello, mister Markham, here
ready when you get back to town.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
That's this afternoon.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Oh this is mister Hood, that's the teller.
Speaker 6 (09:26):
I don't know your Gregory Hood.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
Aren't you ahead of the important firms?
Speaker 6 (09:30):
Right? I have a neighbor of yours.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Just a block down the hill from here.
Speaker 6 (09:34):
I've wanted to meet you.
Speaker 8 (09:36):
I think I've got some stuff that will interest you
quite a bit.
Speaker 6 (09:40):
Yes, I'm afraid we have to go, mister Markham. What
kind of stuff are you referring to?
Speaker 8 (09:45):
How would you like to see the very hatchet with
which the boat and murders.
Speaker 6 (09:49):
Would to make it?
Speaker 8 (09:50):
You have it, mister Markin, and more gracious, I think
I have one of the finest collections of murder weapons
in the world. Why not stop and see them?
Speaker 4 (09:58):
It would only take a few second.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
How about tomorrow, mister Martin.
Speaker 8 (10:02):
Well, I'm afraid I'll be out of town for the
next few days.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
I will not come now.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
Well, Greggory, we can't.
Speaker 6 (10:07):
Or quarter of an hour won't hurt Sandy.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
Come on, you can figure with missus Olson on fault, Oh, Gregory, Here,
mister hood is the carving knife which Henry White, to
Pete Montgommer, used to decapitate his wife.
Speaker 6 (10:28):
I remember the case. They never did find her head,
did they?
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Strikes me as a rather grizzly hobby, mister Markham, though
I'm sure your collection's priceless to.
Speaker 8 (10:35):
A student of criminology like myself.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
Mister Taylor, it's far from grizzly.
Speaker 8 (10:39):
Naturally, I knew mister Hood's reputation as.
Speaker 5 (10:41):
An amateur detective, and I was certain he'd be inter
see I am, I am immense.
Speaker 6 (10:46):
It's a superb black museum.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Just think of it. Every one of these choice implements
have actually tasted human blood, and usually in a celebrated case.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
And that's why I regard the hobby as.
Speaker 6 (10:55):
A grizzly one.
Speaker 5 (10:56):
You wouldn't consider selling any of these trophies, would you,
mister martam telling you print Scott knows would I'd like
to buy more to add to the collection?
Speaker 6 (11:05):
It concuse me, mister Markham, he is for? What is?
If your wife would like to speak to you for
a moment? He's in the dance.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
Oh very well, I'll be back in a moment.
Speaker 5 (11:12):
Gentlemen, I look after my guests for I'm Peel Jackson,
mister Markham secretary, you are, mister Gregory Hood?
Speaker 6 (11:18):
Answer yes, and this is Sam Taylor.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
Gregory is nearly half time.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
As soon as mister Markham gets back, will be on
our way. Mister Hood. I've got a business proposition to
make you well. I'm a businessman. What proposition. You're an
import with connections.
Speaker 5 (11:31):
All over the world, mister Hoods, it has to me
that occasionally you would be bound to come across something
that would be a perfect addition to mister Markham's museum.
Speaker 6 (11:38):
I've just been thinking the same thing myself. Me too.
Speaker 5 (11:41):
It would be the first opportunity I've ever had to
put my interest in murder on a strictly commercial basis.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
The propositions to Jackson.
Speaker 5 (11:47):
I'd love to handle such a deal on a commission that.
Speaker 6 (11:50):
Hardly seems ethical.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
Mister Markham's your employer, and he has more money than
he knows what to do with. We told jack the
price up and split the extra three ways. I don't
want to appear stuffy, mister Jackson, but my firm doesn't
do business that way. No dice, my friends now here
he comes an hour with his wife. Please don't be peaping,
I said, yet, little and I want you to meet
my wife. My dear, we've heard of missus Markham and
(12:13):
missus Taylor.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
How you do.
Speaker 7 (12:15):
I was telling Howard that I was so anxious to
meet you, mister Hurd, but I wish he'd warned me
when he's saying.
Speaker 9 (12:20):
This is I look perfectly awful.
Speaker 6 (12:22):
You look charming, missus Markham. But I'm afraid that we
must be getting along.
Speaker 9 (12:27):
The collection.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
Yes, yes, it's definitely.
Speaker 9 (12:30):
That's how I didn't show you my contribution. He doesn't
seem it's worthy of the rest of the stuff. I mean,
here and let me show you.
Speaker 6 (12:38):
Here's this for the moment. It's never been proven to
be your friendy.
Speaker 9 (12:42):
So howard both, let me keep it this collection, it's
vanished to the study.
Speaker 6 (12:46):
What is the treasure? A dating question?
Speaker 9 (12:49):
Somebody is supposed to have conscious fifty.
Speaker 7 (12:51):
Girls and on the head with its forty three times
before to the study for the test, I brought it
in China down.
Speaker 6 (12:57):
Oh is it on the desk? Yeah, y's a hood.
Speaker 9 (13:03):
Yes, you have to talk about the question.
Speaker 6 (13:06):
The boy is screaming, Okay, let's.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
Not talk about him. Well the last night you have
to pay yes, yes, and I'm late for it now
blonde bring white hair. And in the late fifties, she
must have a daughter. She has to play chow plans
for pirblade.
Speaker 9 (13:22):
That's when you want. You have to go yes once
to drop five over. How are you going to club?
Speaker 6 (13:31):
You're crazy about how it? Don't you? Oh?
Speaker 9 (13:33):
So the tenant boy at the nineteen hundred and one
n Latin. Yes, if I'm not doing something about it.
Speaker 6 (13:45):
I'm suffering from a rush of epics to the head.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
That's unfortunate.
Speaker 9 (13:51):
Yes, this ws a my living a numbers in book, and.
Speaker 6 (13:55):
Let's go.
Speaker 9 (13:58):
This side.
Speaker 5 (14:01):
Where?
Speaker 4 (14:01):
Lord?
Speaker 6 (14:02):
Do you think it's so authentic?
Speaker 5 (14:04):
I rather doubt it's, mister Marsham that then it's hard
to say, Oh, Sanday, what's the time?
Speaker 4 (14:09):
Seven o'clock?
Speaker 6 (14:09):
Cracker? Ain't that an o'clock?
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Sandy? You're a dope?
Speaker 6 (14:11):
Why didn't you keep an eye on your watch? You're late?
Speaker 5 (14:24):
All right, Gregory, I'll come up to your apartment for
John's one glass of port. But Padros was worse than usual,
an horse in a standay, And I can't think why
even the Austin folks decided that brilliant team is a
good spaces for a salad dressing.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Oh it wasn't that bad, Gregory.
Speaker 6 (14:41):
I'll never quite understand you.
Speaker 5 (14:43):
What makes you say that you were equally charming both
to missus Markham, who had all the subtlety of a steamroller,
and to miss Austen, was really a.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
Very nice girl. Obviously you didn't like either of us.
Speaker 6 (14:53):
What kind of a woman do you like? Where's my keys? Oh?
Speaker 3 (14:56):
Here we are?
Speaker 6 (14:58):
What kind of a woman do I know? I don't
have much sandies, just an off beat sense of humor.
Speaker 5 (15:04):
Great usual in a certain way with nim, I shouldn't
be too hard, fine nose.
Speaker 6 (15:10):
That's what I had in mind, was something like, yes,
just might easily be someone.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Very like you?
Speaker 4 (15:18):
Who she or she's just?
Speaker 6 (15:22):
Oh? And who are you? And how did you get
in here?
Speaker 9 (15:25):
It's managed to man's service. He thought you might take
me to stay.
Speaker 6 (15:30):
That's friendly of him.
Speaker 9 (15:31):
But I have not come here to this man at you?
You don't have I come here to sit down. I
have come here to warn you about the Knight.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
What's nice?
Speaker 6 (15:39):
The facts?
Speaker 9 (15:40):
Your knife of the which approaches the god of wars.
That's nice belongs to the followers the god. You must
not keep it, misterhood.
Speaker 5 (15:48):
Listen to what did I say?
Speaker 9 (15:50):
Whoever onto my friends will die, We will die by
the Knight?
Speaker 4 (15:57):
Are you sure you haven't reading too many mystery stories?
Speaker 6 (15:59):
And lady, I'm in front of me.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
I've come here to.
Speaker 6 (16:01):
Bring you warning. That's very nice of you. Who are you?
Speaker 9 (16:04):
I am obvious as fat as I am and I
think I.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
Want you to others follow you while.
Speaker 6 (16:15):
You're on the knight with that is, if you must
threaten me. I do wish to sit down. We all
be more comfortable. That is all I have to say.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Remember what I have said.
Speaker 6 (16:25):
Now, wait a minute, Joe fathers has been a one
track conversation. Why do you have to leave?
Speaker 4 (16:29):
To leave? Good?
Speaker 6 (16:30):
I'll be back in a je sending why do you
par I'm not. I'm just being a gentleman and seeing
you to your card. Who's thinking here?
Speaker 9 (16:37):
Nobody?
Speaker 6 (16:38):
Where do you live?
Speaker 9 (16:39):
I should not tell you?
Speaker 6 (16:40):
What's your phone?
Speaker 3 (16:40):
Have no phone?
Speaker 6 (16:41):
Mis Douglas sixty nine seven? What's your other name? Bron?
You can't here to try and scare me? And now
I'm scaring you, fellow. Oh well, let me drive you home.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Good.
Speaker 6 (16:51):
Oh we'll meet again. I promise you will meet again.
Speaker 5 (16:56):
And the nice Greggory should have been here a week
ago instead of waiting, arrived this morning. The strange things
happening in the custom opened the window when it's him
and stuffy in anyway, it was well worth waiting for.
Speaker 6 (17:16):
It's a beautiful specimen and number what the girl said
last night? Gregory? Whoever owns the knife wrongfully? Will die?
Was that girl?
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Gregg?
Speaker 5 (17:24):
Last name, address, telephone number unknown, But he put on
quite a convincing act. He didn't gam it us herself, though,
I'll find out if are up to it. Oh, this
nice ExPASy, I'll hold it up by the windows, candy
and in fact a lot of money, Gregory if I
feel it, Markham and.
Speaker 6 (17:40):
Probably give his I teeth for it. It is, and
there's his eye, teeth undoubtedly detachable.
Speaker 4 (17:45):
I don't think it would do much of a bargain.
Speaker 6 (17:48):
Look at the blood stains on this probably fifteenth century.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
Oh month, somebody chucked a knife through the.
Speaker 4 (17:56):
Window, and there's an office building opposite.
Speaker 6 (17:58):
But I can't see any I didn't expect you to.
You're dealing with an expert. You only missed me by
a few inches, hopfully bad to the redwood paneling, though, yes,
I see, I'm a nice at modern Nate Gregory.
Speaker 9 (18:10):
But it's the same pattern as the one I got
in Mexico.
Speaker 6 (18:12):
Shall I call a police? Oh Brady, this is hood company,
bas we can take care of it well. And what
are you going to do? Banks?
Speaker 5 (18:17):
This unknown individual for testing me a nice new import
for free and plan to thank him in person as
soon as possible. Gregory is, I'm crazy about riding in
(18:39):
the open section of these table cars, good am, I,
but we've been up knob.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
Hill twice and down at once. This is the second
trip down.
Speaker 5 (18:46):
Where is it getting it up and down knob Hill?
Table cars are conducive to clear thinking.
Speaker 6 (18:51):
I think I've been thinking.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
Man get rid of that sacrificial night, the only sensible
thing to do.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
And you've got a perfect market.
Speaker 6 (18:57):
You mean mister Markham's Black Museum.
Speaker 4 (18:59):
Sure, I know, Sandy, but there's something about this whole
business that smacks.
Speaker 6 (19:03):
The fourth rate melodrama. Gregory.
Speaker 5 (19:05):
I'd say turned the case over to the police and
sell the.
Speaker 6 (19:07):
Knife to mock and admit that I'm scared. No, standy,
that isn't what I mentioned.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Another night thrown after this time? It is really close then,
the fourth rate melodrama or not.
Speaker 6 (19:19):
I'm beginning to think I'm unpopular.
Speaker 8 (19:30):
As diction.
Speaker 5 (19:31):
Yes, take this letter please here, mister Harris, regard to
your letter of the sixteenth instant. As attorney for the
firm of Gregory Hood Importers, I hereby give notice and
your receipt of this registered letter will acknowledge such notice,
whereas the party of the first.
Speaker 7 (19:50):
Mister, Oh, yes, he's right here, thank you.
Speaker 5 (19:57):
Mistake, Yes, Gregory, Sandy, I'm phoning from a oh very unusual.
Speaker 10 (20:01):
Yes, this is sad.
Speaker 6 (20:03):
They let me tell you something.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
I don't look.
Speaker 6 (20:05):
He's crazy to buy the sacrificial knives.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
Good sell it, Gregory.
Speaker 6 (20:07):
But I had a right idea supposing this guy was
purchasing me with knives. Decides to take a crack of
fox if we would.
Speaker 5 (20:14):
We don't worry, Gregory. I'll work out out formal waiver
of damages or something. I'm glad you've come to your senses, though,
and decided to sell.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
I just wanted to know what, Gregory, what's wrong?
Speaker 5 (20:25):
I heard a man scream, hope, Gregory, Gregory, Gregory. You'll
hear the rest of Gregory who had story in just
a second. So in the meantime, I'm going to tell
(20:47):
you about a white wine. It's really marvelous with chicken.
The wine is Petrie California So Turned. Petrie So Turned
is a delicate, subtle wine, beautifully.
Speaker 6 (20:59):
Golden in colored.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
One sip and you'll know that you've discovered the kind
of wine you've long looked for And let me tell you.
Petre so turned is not only great with chicken. Wait,
did you serve it with fish or any other kind
of seafood? It's just about well, I've sort of run
out of words. You just taste Petrey so turn yourself
and you'll know how good it really is. Remember, there
(21:22):
are lots of wine, so be sure you get a
good wine. Always get a Petree wine. Well, it was
a fine place to lead me. Cliff Hayes, Were you
killed Gregory this early in the series, No, Harry by
a happy work of faith.
Speaker 6 (21:37):
I wasn't too.
Speaker 5 (21:37):
Oh, I'm so glad that Sandy was worried, though he was.
He tried unsuccessfully traced the call and waited anxiously.
Speaker 6 (21:43):
Until I called him back.
Speaker 4 (21:47):
Yes, Gregory, you're scared the daylight, thought him. Sorry, I
got what happened another night?
Speaker 6 (21:53):
Throw n't you?
Speaker 5 (21:53):
Yes?
Speaker 6 (21:53):
But this time an aby barfly lights in front of me.
That was the yelp you must he did it? Get
him picked his shoulders hing cereal, except that.
Speaker 10 (22:00):
He might sign the plane.
Speaker 4 (22:02):
It made me mad.
Speaker 8 (22:02):
It's giving me an idea.
Speaker 5 (22:04):
I think I know how to settle this business now, Gregory,
leave it alone or at least let me.
Speaker 6 (22:07):
Okay, okay, counselor you're enough beat me at Sam Mackman's
office area half out. Who's Sam Macklin? What the heck
tell you when I see you?
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Well?
Speaker 6 (22:24):
Sam House business, ah, greg and business ain't what he
used to me. I don't think it ever has been.
What can I do for you this time? Greg? You're
chasing down the phone number of another ballet dancer. I
do want to find a dancer, but I assure you
it's strictly business this time.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
M Well, I'll see what I can do.
Speaker 5 (22:40):
I want the addresses of any female Spanish dancers now
in San Francisco.
Speaker 6 (22:44):
Spanish dances.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
I can find you one hundred Mexican ones.
Speaker 6 (22:47):
No, no, Sam, real Spanish dancers, not Mexicans.
Speaker 5 (22:50):
Okay, i'll'll through my book, and while you're at it,
see if you can tack down any knife throwers for me.
Speaker 11 (22:56):
Spanish enters and knife throwers. Gregory, My boy, your taste
is certainly changing, Gregory.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
Why are we doing a round to the night.
Speaker 5 (23:17):
I'm trying to catch the right floor show, the one that.
Speaker 4 (23:19):
Has a certain Spanish dancer.
Speaker 5 (23:20):
But I think we will recognize where does the Spanish
dancer fit into the picture of records. That girl Killar,
the so called Aztec priestess, descried to scare me last night.
Speaker 6 (23:28):
I have a hunt. She's a dancer.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
What makes you think that? Well, at first, when I
heard that luscious voice, I thought she might have been
a singer.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
But when I saw the way she.
Speaker 5 (23:35):
Moved around and how she skimmed down the stairs, I
changed my mind.
Speaker 6 (23:38):
Yes, Andy, I have a definite hunt.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
She's a dancer.
Speaker 6 (23:41):
One thing's certain. He's obviously not an ask how do
you figure that one?
Speaker 5 (23:44):
Not?
Speaker 4 (23:45):
She said, how do you say in English a taker?
Speaker 6 (23:48):
As taka? She gave the z a th eight sound.
Speaker 5 (23:52):
That's Castilian, Spanish, Mexican or any Spanish American would say
as taker. Oh, she's a phony, and that's why we're
calling the knight. I'm trying to find that.
Speaker 6 (24:01):
I hope he can lead us to whoever's at the
back of this night's throwing business.
Speaker 5 (24:04):
Well, we've seen three Spanish dancers so far, and you've
made two dates.
Speaker 6 (24:07):
I hope this is the right place.
Speaker 5 (24:09):
Do a it is it is?
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Let's setting out in the potlight, man, Dad.
Speaker 6 (24:16):
It's the same girl, all right. How soon as the
numbers over. We're going to persuade her to take a.
Speaker 5 (24:20):
Cab ride with us to the officers are putting company.
Speaker 10 (24:22):
And put mister rud why are you taking me from
the club. It must downstair camp to night.
Speaker 6 (24:38):
Oh, don't worry to last.
Speaker 5 (24:39):
I'll get you back there in time and stay to
watch you right now. We want information who hired you
to come up and time scare me last.
Speaker 9 (24:46):
Night, It would not be there to stay you you
turned me.
Speaker 8 (24:48):
It was only a joke, and you pay me way.
It would not be right to give the joke away.
Speaker 5 (24:52):
Listen to I'm a lawyer, and I assure you you're
not mixed up with a joke. You're mixed up with
attempted murder. Not He said, you must believe me all right,
that they just answer my questions and you'll be all right.
Speaker 6 (25:06):
It's try to murder you me through apparently, though of
course they really after someone else.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
How do you figure that, Gregory?
Speaker 5 (25:11):
If they were really after me, no expert knife throwers
coul have failed in three attempts. Therefore, the whole act
of sending Pala with the warning and the night drawing
was a deliberate plan.
Speaker 6 (25:19):
To scare me in selling the knife fairs.
Speaker 5 (25:21):
Now, who would be the obvious customer? Mister MARKT sure?
So what we've uncovered now is a plan to murder
Mark them I.
Speaker 6 (25:28):
Understand it now.
Speaker 5 (25:28):
By making the killing seem to hinge on the knife,
it cast suspicion away from a personal motive for killing Mark.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
Harry perver of you to figure that, Gregory?
Speaker 6 (25:36):
If I may say so, you may have hand it.
Speaker 9 (25:38):
Please me to what I do not understand what you
bought to talk about.
Speaker 6 (25:41):
I'll explain it. That suffer, lad, Now just tell me
who hired you.
Speaker 8 (25:45):
I do not know his name is, and I hardly
saw his face. He came to the club and spoke
to me outside the stage doors.
Speaker 9 (25:51):
It was very dark.
Speaker 6 (25:52):
I would that to him again, but you'd know his voice, Pala,
wouldn't you?
Speaker 5 (25:56):
Oh?
Speaker 9 (25:56):
Yeah, I never forget a voice.
Speaker 6 (25:57):
Ah. Then we'll say, but Gregory, why.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
Are we going to your office instead of Markham's house.
You know my methods and me as well as you do,
which is that you make them up as you go along.
All right, but you do recall one of my basic ideas.
Find out what you want to know, then see the
guy that knows it. That's why We're going to the
office right now. I want to see our Mexican expert
Tim Brady.
Speaker 6 (26:28):
So that's the situation. To him, somebody's scheming to murder Markham.
Speaker 5 (26:32):
Doesn't seem possible. Yesilla, Gregory, have you any idea?
Speaker 4 (26:36):
Who's the back of it?
Speaker 6 (26:38):
All?
Speaker 2 (26:38):
Right?
Speaker 6 (26:38):
Pillar?
Speaker 9 (26:39):
Now here are mister Brady?
Speaker 3 (26:41):
You heard me?
Speaker 8 (26:42):
Hi, Reckon, thank your voice?
Speaker 6 (26:43):
Are you crazy?
Speaker 5 (26:45):
It had to be Tim, because Pilla approached me with
the warning before I got the knife. At that time,
you were the only man in California who knew that
I was going to receive an ancient sacrificial knight.
Speaker 6 (26:54):
You didn't foresee the delay.
Speaker 5 (26:56):
Gregory, You're nuts. What possible motive could I have? You
know the Markhams you introduced me, and the motive for
any man of average susceptibility is obvious enough after you've
met missus Markham.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
Very ingenious you could bring in Tilar as a witness
of court.
Speaker 5 (27:11):
Will Brady and my old pale Lieutenant Silbers at the
San Francisco Police has put a tracerro out for me
for night brawers. I imagine you told the man who
threw the knives that it was a joke too. This
business of throwing near misses. The final knife that would
not have missed Markham, I imagine you planned.
Speaker 6 (27:25):
To wield yourself. You're making a good case, Gregory, But
of what No crime has been committed, Yes, all of
otters a detective who forced all the murder for a chase.
But it seems to lave me in the clear, not
priced him.
Speaker 5 (27:36):
That man who was wounded in the bar when the
knife nickname this afternoon infection set him.
Speaker 6 (27:41):
He died in the hospital an hour ago. I'm afraid
of the murder charge, Brady.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
He died, Okay, you're the only ones to come up.
Speaker 9 (27:52):
That's a honey knocked him out.
Speaker 5 (27:54):
Told and to think that I selected that you had
to represent our Mexican interests.
Speaker 6 (28:00):
Call the police, Sandy, when you went right away.
Speaker 9 (28:01):
You did not hurt yourself, be though.
Speaker 6 (28:03):
No, I just ruse my knuckles a Sanday.
Speaker 5 (28:06):
Tim pulled a gun on as I imagine, we can
book him on the source of intention to commit murder
country Sure, But this man that cried, Gregory, why didn't
you tell me? Because I only dreamed it up just now.
It seems the one way to make Tim Joy's hands.
Speaker 4 (28:18):
Gregory, you're completely unprincipal.
Speaker 5 (28:20):
Sure, I think you're wonderful as when Tim pulled that gun.
Just now you called me Gregory, why go back to mister.
Speaker 9 (28:31):
Craig. But Pa, you must take me back to my club.
Speaker 5 (28:34):
Soon, just as soon as the police get here to
allow the two of us take you back, and later
on tonight we will really show you the town. Oh
not may, Gregory, I'm going home, marry and the children.
Speaker 6 (28:43):
Give me police requarter, then plied, I will do the
town alone.
Speaker 4 (28:46):
It's the date seller, very much, your redeef, greg.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
Well, that story was a duty, greg But there's one
thing I'd like to know. I'd like to know if
if I kept my datist till Oh yeah, that's right.
But you know I was going to ask that everybody
else does.
Speaker 6 (29:22):
Why not you? And I can tell you that your
next question is going to be so what till our
phone number right? And your answer?
Speaker 5 (29:30):
As they say at the phone company, I'm sorry, we
cannot devout that information. Okay, okay, let's order dinner and
to get good shall we try the Sciliponi George to
tell you?
Speaker 6 (29:41):
Sure, let's see wine?
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Shall I order?
Speaker 6 (29:45):
As if you don't know?
Speaker 5 (29:47):
All right, go ahead, kid me but you know as
well as either that we can't mess with Petrie.
Speaker 6 (29:51):
One say why.
Speaker 5 (29:52):
The Petrie family has been making wine for generations. The
art of making fine wine is their hares, a heritage
handed on down from father to son, from father to son.
No wonder Petrie wine is so good, and no wonder
the Patrie business is grown and grown through that.
Speaker 4 (30:12):
Today the Petrie family.
Speaker 5 (30:14):
Are America's lightest independent wine making. Yes, the making of
Petrie wine is a family affair, and the Petrie family
intends to keep it that way because by so doing
they can be sure that every bottle.
Speaker 6 (30:27):
Of wine that bears the name Petrie is and always
will be good wine.
Speaker 5 (30:34):
Well, Gregory, what story out of your casebook are you
planning to tell us next week?
Speaker 6 (30:38):
A little tale that concerns the date at the top
of the mark Hofkins Hotills, and a certain gunman by
the name of lem Carker, who was convinced that I'd
looked so much better as a course to you next
Monday area.
Speaker 5 (31:06):
The Case Book of Gregory Hood is written by Dennis
Green and Anthony Boucher. Original music is composed and played
by Dean Fossman. Gail Gordon plays the part of Gregory
Hood and Sanderson Taylor is played by Art Gilmore. The
Battery Wine Company of San Francisco, California and brite you
(31:30):
to tune in again next week, same time, same state.
The case Book of Gregory Hood comes to you from.
Speaker 4 (31:36):
Our Hollywood studio.
Speaker 5 (31:41):
This is Harry Bartel saying good night for the Pattery family.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
Welcome back. I guess I got a reminder of the
power of radio as I was sitting here kind of
feeling very roast by the Black Museum, which was not
actually there was just reading a radio script, but I
was just kind of like, oh, that's ikey. But it's
(32:14):
really does kind of establish the character of Gregory hooding
you can kind of see certainly the character's definitely a
connoisseur and with very particular taste, but not quite a snobbish,
which I think makes an interesting character.
Speaker 4 (32:31):
All right.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Well, oh and I also love the joke about when
Harry Bartell asked.
Speaker 4 (32:39):
Him did you get killed?
Speaker 2 (32:41):
Which was obviously an absurd question, and his answer was
equally absurd. What this early in the series was cute.
All right, Well, that'll do it for today. Join us
back here tomorrow and we'll continue on with the star
of Cape Town Matter. And we'll be back next Tuesday
with another episode of the Case Book of Gregory hud.
