the furniture warehouse.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
I mean, that's right, my boy. Now I win it.
Oh no, no, no.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
The story we live again when storm in November nineteen,
eighteen hundred and eighty seven, I was married at the
time and living away from Baker Street. On this night
in question, my wife had already gone to bed, and
I was nodding in.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Front of the par over one of Clark Russell's.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Fine sea stories. I'd had a very tiring day. I
remember it was about the hour that a man gives
his first yawn and glance at the clock. Suddenly I
pronked door bell jangle discordantly. A servant Edna had gone
up to bed, so I crossed to the window and
opened it. Then it dark and I could just see
(03:04):
the outline of a figure standing on my doorstep. It
looked like a woman. Suddenly, a cultivated voice called up
to me. Uh h, yes, madam, I'm the doctor and dick,
oh all right, I'll be down immediately. I closed the window,
(03:27):
scribbled enough to my wife, grabbed my coat and hat
and my bag, and a few minutes later I stepped
out on the front door and closed it behind me.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Carriage was standing at the curb, but.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
I couldn't see any trace of the lady who called men.
The only person in sight was an old and impossible
figure woman dressed in rags and tatters. After a moment
of bewilderment, I spoke, Uh, did you see a lady
leave here.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
A moment ago?
Speaker 6 (03:55):
No, Doctor, she didn't leave.
Speaker 7 (03:56):
She's still waiting for you.

not not for doctor Watson who's associated with Shella Cones.
That is what you know of me, doctor, And please
forget about everything you see.
Speaker 6 (09:25):
H m hm.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
But my soul an amazing business. Holmes will be interested
to hear about this, And that's the way it was, Holmes,
one of the most curious advinces I ever had.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
And without you, interesting Watson, you say the sun the
down cellar was luxuriously furnished.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
Yes, and the people. There were an amazing mixture. Some
are in rags and some in evening.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Dress like the lesser rhy eh, some in rags and
some in tags, and some in don't gown.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
Exactly in the feeling that I was taking part in
the story out of the Arabian Nights, I must say
though I was pretty angry at the time.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
However, after a good.
Speaker 4 (10:22):
Night's rosta, it feels quite different this morning. But I
thought i'd just drop around and tell you all about it.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Like that you did.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
My left alone.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
It would be interesting to see if any repercussions. If
you're a strange adventure Richards, Oh, I doubt it.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
The woman seemed frightened to death when I mentioned your name.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
We will see you meanwhile, I'm expecting a fan. I'm
not too busy, but you can stay no like very much.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Who is it? You know?
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Disagram will tell you much more than I can.
Speaker 13 (10:45):
Right Denial Ago, tell a look see at your lodgings
this morning to discuss our problem. Signed ams pretty high
handed message at your lodging.
Speaker 5 (11:01):
So please, I suppose m S stand for.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
I'm just tying with that problem when you arrived.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Did it be the American Medical school.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
No, no, there's no such body.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
It's the American Medical Association Imperial. A tone of the
message inclines me to believe that the age stands for
Amateur very.
Speaker 5 (11:21):
Possibly Amateur Masculine.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Society, the amateur Murderers. That would be a nice pot,
wouldn't it, because they're representative now, no doubt to stay
a further guesswork homes.
Speaker 5 (11:36):
It looks like the same character as I drove in
last night.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
The girl standing on your dog that the Hyperfeeston. This
is splendid.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
It seems that we have not heard the end of
your adventure. Go and meets the lady at the top
of the stairs. Well she happened, save missus Hudson's way.
Speaker 5 (11:55):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
All right, let's come in, madam, Come in, jefe.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Your service, madam when it's done.
Speaker 6 (12:07):
And lady, don't be brownly, it's your voice.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
You're the lady who fetched me last night. Dress as
a bigger woman.
Speaker 7 (12:15):
Yes I am, doctor Watson. Forgive me for being so
mysterious at the time.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Doubtless you have come to consult me regarding last night's
unfortunate accident at the Amateur Mendicant Society.
Speaker 9 (12:25):
Did you know what the initials stood for mister Home.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
After hearing doctor Watson's story of last night's happening, the
connotations seemed obbious.
Speaker 6 (12:33):
Am I right perfectly?
Speaker 7 (12:34):
Last night when doctor Watson told us Dream was dead,
we thought.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
It was an accident, and now you think it is
murder Me, Lady Brahmitt, if you expect my help there
there's been no more mystery.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Just what is this amateur Mendican society?
Speaker 7 (12:50):
I must say it will be a little hard for
you to understand our motives for a group of people,
rather wealthy people. I suppose to find pleasure in deliberately
leading his steamy life to the skies as beggars.
Speaker 6 (13:01):
We use the paston that youuri.
Speaker 7 (13:02):
Passhi doctors our headquarters to keep our beggars there and
change out of them before we go home.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Fantastic, A futile worthless of spending your leisure of time.
Speaker 7 (13:13):
I suppose it must seem so m to home. But
we're curious to learn how the other hearth lives. The course,
there is a certain thrill and rubbing shoulders with the police.
Speaker 6 (13:22):
At least we do some good.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Indeed, I should be interested to learn.
Speaker 9 (13:27):
How the money we make it beggars.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
We give to charity, really, and you feel that this
gesture on your part absolves you from any responsibility to
the real beggars whose reglihood you are impairing.
Speaker 7 (13:39):
I hadn't thought of it just like this. Then I
suppose you won't want to help them.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Oh that's quite another matter, madam. And as a professional detective,
I cannot appord to be a modelist. Yes, I will
investigate this case for you, though I warn you my.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Fee will be an extremely high one.
Speaker 7 (13:55):
Money isn't important, mister Holmes, as long as we can
solve Julian's debt without bringing the police into the case.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Lady Banner, who is the dead man? The man you
referred to as Julian?
Speaker 6 (14:05):
Julian Trepor, the poet. He was the one who started
out the sign.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Read some of his work distinctly.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
What makes you think that he was murdered?
Speaker 7 (14:14):
Lenny Bran laughter you left last night, Doctor Watson.
Speaker 6 (14:17):
It was a terrible scene. Yount and the city host.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
He's a big fellow who is sawn pleasanter.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
Yes, that's the one.
Speaker 7 (14:25):
He said that he saw Lord Cecil delipally tripped Julian
as he came.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
To the head of the staircase, Lord Cecil being Lord Cecter.
Speaker 7 (14:32):
Divin for son of the Earl of Lushen. There was
a bit of argument, Cecil, I huse Sydney doing the
same thing. Then they had a dreadful sight. It ended
up with set of threatening to go to the police.
So that's when we decided to send a telegram to.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
So the proof of murder depends on such climsy evidence
as to whether the dead man fell.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Or was pushed.
Speaker 9 (14:56):
It seems like sister Holmes, even though you don't approve, please.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Help, won't you. Yes, Lady Brodney, I'll go.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
Will you come back with me? Now? Do I headquarter him?
Speaker 2 (15:03):
I will join you in the hour. In the meantime,
my old friend doctor Watson, go with you.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Come? What could I do without you?
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Metodoe?
Speaker 6 (15:10):
Jab back?
Speaker 2 (15:11):
According there.
Speaker 9 (15:13):
Could you?
Speaker 6 (15:14):
You'll be there.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
I promise you that I will be there.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Madam, thank you so much. Please set you well. I'll
just get my hat and coat home. What are you
up to? Go with her?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
And ask no more questions than I will join you
within the hour.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
Your eye.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
I don't think you believe. Of course I have what's
woolen work? And go with her old fellow, and keep
your wits about you.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
The games are foot.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
The story of the Amateur a Mendican Society will continue
in just a few seconds time. I'd like to use
to remind you that you're really missing something. And then
you try having wine with your dinner, and I need
a Petrie wine. Let's say a Petrick California Burgundy or
a Petrick California's Soul turned. Both wines are just made
to make good food taste better. If you like a
red wine, try Pettree Burgundy. Try it with hamburger, with stew,
(16:09):
with any meat or meat dish. And if you like
a delicious white wine, a wine that'll make chicken taste
better than ever, try a well chilled pet Tree cell
turned with food. Nothing can take the place of a
good pet Tree wine. And now back to tonight's ugh
(16:33):
Sherlock Holmes Adventure. The Amateur Mendican Society, a group of
wealthy eccentrics who pose his beggers, have come to Sherlock
Holmes and Doctor Watson with a problem. One of their
members has apparently been murdered, and the famous pair have
been asked to investigate the killing. As we rejoin our story.
Doctor Watson, still awaiting the arrival of the great detective,
is cross questioning three of the members at the headquarters
(16:54):
of this unusual I.
Speaker 5 (16:56):
Don't find your stuff is very convincing.
Speaker 11 (17:00):
Now, let's suppose you stop asking questions until Sherlock Holmes
gets here. He's the master engaged to settle his business,
not you. We're paying for his services, not those of
his assistant.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
Mister Holmes asked me to conduct this preliminary investigation.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
My good man, I'm perfect familiar with his methods, So
keep a civil coming in your head if you want.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Us to continue with his case.
Speaker 5 (17:20):
I'm not answering any more questions till he gets here.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
Stopballer.
Speaker 4 (17:24):
Uh, Lord cecil, you say that you saw Holt deliberate
the tip the dead man as he came down the
stairs last side, Yes, I did, well, where were you
standing her at the head of the staircase.
Speaker 3 (17:35):

Speaker 2 (17:36):
And as Junien came by, he deliberately.
Speaker 5 (17:38):
Please excuse me, number eleven, Excuse me?
Speaker 6 (17:40):
What is it?
Speaker 5 (17:41):
Where is this strange man just coming in?
Speaker 11 (17:43):
He is dressed as you when you work, But I
do not remember you've seen him here before.
Speaker 6 (17:48):
He speaks very rough.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Did he get the correct signal?
Speaker 5 (17:52):
Yes, I'm the passport.
Speaker 12 (17:54):
He must be a new member, and I suppose I
better see him, bring him in a bad time for
the come here, come, please wait, please saw me?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Yeah, well right, don't you do yourself?
Speaker 9 (18:06):

Speaker 2 (18:09):
I'll give you a sickle in the past. Work just
like Julian tell me too. You're a friend of Julian
whose I am here? I'm going to meet me here
to die? Who are you reeling? We're all friends here.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Yes, you can talk feeling and permit people into produced

Speaker 2 (18:47):

Speaker 5 (18:50):

and break the news to him.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
We'll follow me. H, this is terrible.

And except that, I do believe it was an accidents homes.
Speaker 11 (19:21):
But not quietly enough, mister Sherlock Holmes, come on, come
back to the others and let all take a look
at you.
Speaker 5 (19:27):
Come on, get moving, both of you.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
This is not a pop gun in my hands.
Speaker 5 (19:30):
Holding away, Oh dessil.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Oy, come here.
Speaker 11 (19:36):
I wanted to take a look at the great Sherlock
Holmes walked into our traps like any stupid policeman.
Speaker 5 (19:43):
Now I had a dress up to do it, mister Holmes,
we were waiting for you here anyway.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
You know I was going to wear a Batmister Holt
You see I knew I was walking into a trap.
Did you know that was Apparently the story you brought
was today was obviously a false one, just as there
is no amateur mendicant society.
Speaker 5 (19:58):
Why Holmes, mister tell him, I see how much you
really do?
Speaker 7 (20:02):
Now?
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Why stall tell you what you already know?
Speaker 1 (20:06):
On talk? If you know what's going for you, you're
so persuaded on very well undoubtedly, Julian Trevor's dead last
night was an accident. You fetched the doctor, Lady Browne
a very actual move, and later discovered that the doctor
in question was the old.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Friend of Throck Poones. We're all afraid that.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
I would become interested in your unusual society until you
invented that very thin story about the accident being a murder.
You want to lure me here so that I could
be disposed of and you could all continue your necarious
works without influence. How aren't we clever?
Speaker 5 (20:40):
What is on the various work?
Speaker 1 (20:41):
My eye ask password gave me a clue for the

Speaker 4 (02:23):
The story we live again when storm in November nineteen,
eighteen hundred and eighty seven, I was married at the
time and living away from Baker Street. On this night
in question, my wife had already gone to bed, and
I was nodding in.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Front of the par over one of Clark Russell's.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Fine sea stories. I'd had a very tiring day. I
remember it was about the hour that a man gives
his first yawn and glance at the clock. Suddenly I
pronked door bell jangle discordantly. A servant Edna had gone
up to bed, so I crossed to the window and
opened it. Then it dark and I could just see
(03:04):
the outline of a figure standing on my doorstep. It
looked like a woman. Suddenly, a cultivated voice called up
to me. Uh h, yes, madam, I'm the doctor and dick,
oh all right, I'll be down immediately. I closed the window,
(03:27):
scribbled enough to my wife, grabbed my coat and hat
and my bag, and a few minutes later I stepped
out on the front door and closed it behind me.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Carriage was standing at the curb, but.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
I couldn't see any trace of the lady who called men.
The only person in sight was an old and impossible
figure woman dressed in rags and tatters. After a moment
of bewilderment, I spoke, Uh, did you see a lady
leave here.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
A moment ago?
Speaker 6 (03:55):
No, Doctor, she didn't leave.
Speaker 7 (03:56):

Speaker 6 (09:25):
H m hm.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
But my soul an amazing business. Holmes will be interested
to hear about this, And that's the way it was, Holmes,
one of the most curious advinces I ever had.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
And without you, interesting Watson, you say the sun the
down cellar was luxuriously furnished.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
Yes, and the people. There were an amazing mixture. Some
are in rags and some in evening.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Dress like the lesser rhy eh, some in rags and
some in tags, and some in don't gown.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
Exactly in the feeling that I was taking part in
the story out of the Arabian Nights, I must say
though I was pretty angry at the time.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
However, after a good.
Speaker 4 (10:22):
Night's rosta, it feels quite different this morning. But I
thought i'd just drop around and tell you all about it.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Like that you did.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
My left alone.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
It would be interesting to see if any repercussions. If
you're a strange adventure Richards, Oh, I doubt it.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
The woman seemed frightened to death when I mentioned your name.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
We will see you meanwhile, I'm expecting a fan. I'm
not too busy, but you can stay no like very much.
Speaker 3 (10:42):

Disagram will tell you much more than I can.
Speaker 13 (10:45):
Right Denial Ago, tell a look see at your lodgings
this morning to discuss our problem. Signed ams pretty high
handed message at your lodging.
Speaker 5 (11:01):
So please, I suppose m S stand for.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
I'm just tying with that problem when you arrived.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Did it be the American Medical school.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
No, no, there's no such body.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
It's the American Medical Association Imperial. A tone of the
message inclines me to believe that the age stands for
Amateur very.
Speaker 5 (11:21):
Possibly Amateur Masculine.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Society, the amateur Murderers. That would be a nice pot,
wouldn't it, because they're representative now, no doubt to stay
a further guesswork homes.
Speaker 5 (11:36):
It looks like the same character as I drove in
last night.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
The girl standing on your dog that the Hyperfeeston. This
is splendid.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
It seems that we have not heard the end of
your adventure. Go and meets the lady at the top
of the stairs. Well she happened, save missus Hudson's way.
Speaker 5 (11:55):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (11:56):

Speaker 5 (12:11):
You're the lady who fetched me last night. Dress as
a bigger woman.
Speaker 7 (12:15):
Yes I am, doctor Watson. Forgive me for being so
mysterious at the time.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Doubtless you have come to consult me regarding last night's
unfortunate accident at the Amateur Mendicant Society.
Speaker 9 (12:25):
Did you know what the initials stood for mister Home.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
After hearing doctor Watson's story of last night's happening, the
connotations seemed obbious.
Speaker 6 (12:33):
Am I right perfectly?
Speaker 7 (12:34):
Last night when doctor Watson told us Dream was dead,
we thought.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
It was an accident, and now you think it is
murder Me, Lady Brahmitt, if you expect my help there
there's been no more mystery.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Just what is this amateur Mendican society?
Speaker 7 (12:50):
I must say it will be a little hard for
you to understand our motives for a group of people,
rather wealthy people. I suppose to find pleasure in deliberately
leading his steamy life to the skies as beggars.
Speaker 6 (13:01):
We use the paston that youuri.
Speaker 7 (13:02):
Passhi doctors our headquarters to keep our beggars there and
change out of them before we go home.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Fantastic, A futile worthless of spending your leisure of time.
Speaker 7 (13:13):
I suppose it must seem so m to home. But
we're curious to learn how the other hearth lives. The course,
there is a certain thrill and rubbing shoulders with the police.
Speaker 6 (13:22):
At least we do some good.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Indeed, I should be interested to learn.
Speaker 9 (13:27):
How the money we make it beggars.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
We give to charity, really, and you feel that this
gesture on your part absolves you from any responsibility to
the real beggars whose reglihood you are impairing.
Speaker 7 (13:39):
I hadn't thought of it just like this. Then I
suppose you won't want to help them.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Oh that's quite another matter, madam. And as a professional detective,
I cannot appord to be a modelist. Yes, I will
investigate this case for you, though I warn you my.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Fee will be an extremely high one.
Speaker 7 (13:55):
Money isn't important, mister Holmes, as long as we can
solve Julian's debt without bringing the police into the case.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Lady Banner, who is the dead man? The man you
referred to as Julian?
Speaker 6 (14:05):
Julian Trepor, the poet. He was the one who started
out the sign.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Read some of his work distinctly.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
What makes you think that he was murdered?
Speaker 7 (14:14):
Lenny Bran laughter you left last night, Doctor Watson.
Speaker 6 (14:17):
It was a terrible scene. Yount and the city host.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
He's a big fellow who is sawn pleasanter.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
Yes, that's the one.
Speaker 7 (14:25):
He said that he saw Lord Cecil delipally tripped Julian
as he came.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
To the head of the staircase, Lord Cecil being Lord Cecter.
Speaker 7 (14:32):
Divin for son of the Earl of Lushen. There was
a bit of argument, Cecil, I huse Sydney doing the
same thing. Then they had a dreadful sight. It ended
up with set of threatening to go to the police.
So that's when we decided to send a telegram to.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
So the proof of murder depends on such climsy evidence
as to whether the dead man fell.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Or was pushed.
Speaker 9 (14:56):
It seems like sister Holmes, even though you don't approve, please.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Help, won't you. Yes, Lady Brodney, I'll go.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
Will you come back with me? Now? Do I headquarter him?
Speaker 2 (15:03):
I will join you in the hour. In the meantime,
my old friend doctor Watson, go with you.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Come? What could I do without you?
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Metodoe?
Speaker 6 (15:10):
Jab back?
Speaker 2 (15:11):
According there.
Speaker 9 (15:13):
Could you?
Speaker 6 (15:14):
You'll be there.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
I promise you that I will be there.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Madam, thank you so much. Please set you well. I'll
just get my hat and coat home. What are you
up to? Go with her?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
And ask no more questions than I will join you
within the hour.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
Your eye.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
I don't think you believe. Of course I have what's
woolen work? And go with her old fellow, and keep
your wits about you.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
The games are foot.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
The story of the Amateur a Mendican Society will continue
in just a few seconds time. I'd like to use
to remind you that you're really missing something. And then
you try having wine with your dinner, and I need
a Petrie wine. Let's say a Petrick California Burgundy or
a Petrick California's Soul turned. Both wines are just made
to make good food taste better. If you like a
red wine, try Pettree Burgundy. Try it with hamburger, with stew,
(16:09):
with any meat or meat dish. And if you like
a delicious white wine, a wine that'll make chicken taste
better than ever, try a well chilled pet Tree cell
turned with food. Nothing can take the place of a
good pet Tree wine. And now back to tonight's ugh
(16:33):
Sherlock Holmes Adventure. The Amateur Mendican Society, a group of
wealthy eccentrics who pose his beggers, have come to Sherlock
Holmes and Doctor Watson with a problem. One of their
members has apparently been murdered, and the famous pair have
been asked to investigate the killing. As we rejoin our story.
Doctor Watson, still awaiting the arrival of the great detective,
is cross questioning three of the members at the headquarters
(16:54):
of this unusual I.
Speaker 5 (16:56):
Don't find your stuff is very convincing.
Speaker 11 (17:00):
Now, let's suppose you stop asking questions until Sherlock Holmes
gets here. He's the master engaged to settle his business,
not you. We're paying for his services, not those of
his assistant.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
Mister Holmes asked me to conduct this preliminary investigation.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
My good man, I'm perfect familiar with his methods, So
keep a civil coming in your head if you want.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Us to continue with his case.
Speaker 5 (17:20):
I'm not answering any more questions till he gets here.
Speaker 3 (17:22):

the tip the dead man as he came down the
stairs last side, Yes, I did, well, where were you

Speaker 5 (17:41):
Where is this strange man just coming in?
Speaker 11 (17:43):
He is dressed as you when you work, But I
do not remember you've seen him here before.
Speaker 6 (17:48):
He speaks very rough.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Did he get the correct signal?
Speaker 5 (17:52):
Yes, I'm the passport.
Speaker 12 (17:54):
He must be a new member, and I suppose I
better see him, bring him in a bad time for
the come here, come, please wait, please saw me?

And except that, I do believe it was an accidents homes.
Speaker 11 (19:21):
But not quietly enough, mister Sherlock Holmes, come on, come
back to the others and let all take a look
at you.
Speaker 5 (19:27):
Come on, get moving, both of you.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
This is not a pop gun in my hands.
Speaker 5 (19:30):
Holding away, Oh dessil.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Oy, come here.
Speaker 11 (19:36):
I wanted to take a look at the great Sherlock
Holmes walked into our traps like any stupid policeman.
Speaker 5 (19:43):
Now I had a dress up to do it, mister Holmes,
we were waiting for you here anyway.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
You know I was going to wear a Batmister Holt
You see I knew I was walking into a trap.
Did you know that was Apparently the story you brought
was today was obviously a false one, just as there
is no amateur mendicant society.
Speaker 5 (19:58):
Why Holmes, mister tell him, I see how much you
really do?
Speaker 7 (20:02):
Now?
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Why stall tell you what you already know?
Speaker 1 (20:06):
On talk? If you know what's going for you, you're
so persuaded on very well undoubtedly, Julian Trevor's dead last
night was an accident. You fetched the doctor, Lady Browne
a very actual move, and later discovered that the doctor
in question was the old.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Friend of Throck Poones. We're all afraid that.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
I would become interested in your unusual society until you
invented that very thin story about the accident being a murder.
You want to lure me here so that I could
be disposed of and you could all continue your necarious
works without influence. How aren't we clever?
Speaker 5 (20:40):
What is on the various work?
Speaker 1 (20:41):
My eye ask password gave me a clue for the
lanterns fire the French revolutionists.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
They are strongly aristocrats up on the lamp posts. Then again, the.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Combination of curious costumes and a luxurious establishment in a
low class area posed another question of political belief. Provides
a common meeting ground for misgagged aristocrats and dangerous commoners.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
And how did you answer that? Christ? All that is
implement one word nihilism.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
It's doctrin an assassination and overlo of government to find
every chance of being put into practice by all of
you at the forthcoming Jubileus celebrations to be helped her in.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
London, and also with a count for your beggars.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Those beggar would have greater freedom of movement in account
than an ordinary person.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
You're a clever man, mister Holmes.
Speaker 6 (21:26):
Too bad you'll have to die.
Speaker 3 (21:28):

Speaker 6 (21:29):
What you going to do with him?

Give him my first hand taste of nihilism? Of course,
it's can't love.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
Mister Holmes, it's a pity you and your friend didn't
learn to mind your own business.
