Speaker 1 (00:27):
Twenty thirty and the bulls eye of one hundred, one
hundred and fifty points. Let's see you do better than
that with three dots one hand, Go ahead, go ahead, Towson,
fifty thirty on the line, almost a bulls eye. But
it's only seventy five?
Speaker 2 (00:46):
What's seventy five?
Speaker 3 (00:47):
It's like the parody twice you're like.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
You who said you could commit a police headquarters blanking.
Get out of here.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
Say you've prid was taught me in here yourself a
dozen times?
Speaker 1 (00:54):
What about it? Get out of here. I'm warning you.
One of these darts will go wild?
Speaker 3 (00:58):
How many points if I catch it between the teeth?
Speaker 1 (01:01):
What do you want?
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Like you? Which shows how easy I am? Just satisfying? Okay,
on a hand.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Get lost. We'll go on with our game a little later.
I better be alone with this game.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Sucket of guy that Monahan, what do he want? Like he?
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Come on, I'm busy. I've come down here to make
you a very happy person, Inspector. We'll leave now when
you got what you came for.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
I get away from that target.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Thirty on the line, Paraday, it's only ten ever hear
of a guy named Bellows?
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Now a fifty lucky shot. Sam Bellow's a cripple.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
I never heard of him. Is that all you came
down here for seventy five had? That's better?
Speaker 3 (01:41):
That's awful.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
I suppose you can do better than you.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
The answer is yes, no matter what you might be
referring to. Give me the dog.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Now, three is all you get? Then you get moving.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
You're here.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
I think you better get down and see that Sam
Bellow's inspector.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Now you do, man, that's nice here?
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Why because he's dead, will die?
Speaker 1 (01:59):
That's one hundred So he's dead. So what So we
probably died a natural cause? If that's true enough.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
There's nothing unnatural about dying when you've been murdered. Bullseye
one hundred.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Points more Fellows has been murdered. How do you know that?
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Come on, come on talk, you're inspected. You see I
killed him full dying hour.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Back to Richard Kalmer's Boston blackbe enemy to those who
make him an enemy, friend to those who have no friends.
How many more times do I have to tell you, Paraday,
I killed the guy you expect me to fall first
story like that. I'm beginning to see why I have
to sell so many cases for you.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
You won't even believe a confession.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
All right, Vicky, what's the trick?
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Paraday?
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Someday you'll be arrested for impersonating a police officer.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
It's no trick. I tell you I killed Sam Bellows.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Where's the body?
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Now?
Speaker 1 (02:55):
You're getting smart inspected in an old brown stone house
at the corner of West Boulevard one hundred and tenth.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
All right, I'll go have a look. You mean we'll
go have a look.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
I'll go have a look. You'll go get lost. You're
wanting to go with me some kind of a gag,
and I'm not falling.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
For my hard times have changed.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
You're usually trying to catch me for doing something I
didn't do. This time, I confess to a murder, and
you want to get rid of me. If you don't
get out of here, Plank, I'll arrest you for I'll
think of something. If you found Sam Bellow's body, inspector,
maybe a reason to arrest me will occur to you, Mary,
(03:32):
that's probably Charlie Kingston let him in with him?
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Of course?
Speaker 1 (03:34):
That what is he?
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Down?
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Happy?
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Down down?
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Where did you get your sidekick Charley? At a kennel
or a stable?
Speaker 1 (03:53):
I'm gonna jump over.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
You, and you're gonna have my ride. I'm just as
soon as i'm plowing.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Oh, Charlie, what is a dog? If that's a dog,
what's a horse. I'll admit he's a little large blackie,
but he's harmless, harmless. He cried with the Bowers before
we were even interview.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Oh no, no, no, Mary, he was just making you
out of here happy.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
He's a very splaining garnimal.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Pays no attention to me.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Or do anyone else.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
He knows well.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
He only likes spraining.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Will introduce the film quick before it's dampeded.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Maybe I better put it in the kitchen.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Good idea. Oh close the hold when you blackly?
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Sure?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Come on, come on happy nice. Oh wait a minute, Charlie,
the kitchen dooral was out. Would you pull it towards you?
Speaker 3 (04:39):
I hope you don't mind?
Speaker 6 (04:40):
Is Happy plays in here? Mary?
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Of course she doesn't, Charlie.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
She wants a new kitchen anyway. What kind of a
dog is that, Charlie? Besides big, we'll talk about Happy later.
I want to know if you saw Sam Bellow. His
house is impossible to break into, and he wouldn't see
me in any normal way. So I want to inspect
the and told him I had killed the Bellows.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
What Lankie, don't worry. He didn't blieve me. He wanted
to investigate, but he wouldn't take me with him, So
that idea is wasted. Maybe he went too far.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Can't we talk about something besides the movies? Just before dinner?
Speaker 3 (05:15):
I'm sorry, Mary, Well this this is just before dinner.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Isn't it.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
I'll forgive the delay.
Speaker 6 (05:21):
Mary.
Speaker 5 (05:22):
You can have anything your heart desires at any restaurant.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
And then, oh wonderful, what are we waiting.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
For, Charlie. Isn't the girl in love supposed to lose
her appetite?
Speaker 7 (05:30):
Well, that's the way I always heard it.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
Mary, How you must hate me?
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Come on, come on around and seven't you got through
that door yet?
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Come on us? Hung up?
Speaker 1 (05:43):
This is just in a settling torch inspective her day,
not a twenty millimeter tank gone.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
And this is a steel door.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
EMM. Now I know I Blanket gave him that crock
and bull story about killing this guy Bellows. Why there's
probably no such guy as Bellows. We rang every bell
we could fire, nobody answered.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
And why did Blackie say killed him.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
There's something in this house blank he wants, and he
figured he could steal it right under my nose once
he got inside.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
What made him think you'd get him?
Speaker 1 (06:11):
He knows I'd chip my way barehanded through a brick
wall to pins something on him. Maybe nobody answers a
donor corn of everybody inside is dead, maybe black it
wasn't lying. All right, that'll be enough plan of your own.
And keep busy with that blow torch.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
I want to she's inspector. How we can walk in?
Or hasn't been open.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
For a while?
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Well, somebody lives here a rent. There's a light at
the end of the hall, Wookie, John. You've been to
too many movies?
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Hey, okay, Hey you here? Hey you guys, Yeah, Jack,
I chose you.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
You saw too many movies.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Hey, you just keep walking down the hall.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
And he's not dead anyhow. Maybe he's a zombie.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
The movie once or twice your show mistake.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Come on, let's go after it.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Hey you, what's the matter?
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Can't you here?
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Wait a minute, Joe brad Merlins, I got him. What
are you looking so startled for?
Speaker 3 (07:12):
We called you? Hey, inspector, I would right, guys.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Yeah, if you're right, Hey, you can't you talk block?
Look like this, I move my mouth talk talk talk, Yeah,

I'll write notes to this guy and he.
Speaker 6 (07:37):
Can write back to me here.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
What if you can't write, then I'll make him your
boss get lost?
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Will you?
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Rowlins? Have a look around and see what's in the
rest of the house here? All right, you and I
are gonna have a little spelling bee. And you're right,
I don't never mind. I'll just write out a question.
See if you can write the answer.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Does a Fellows live here?
Speaker 1 (08:05):
I'll take a look at it. Well, I hope, and
not means yes, you'll have to write this answer though.
Who are you here?
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Now?
Speaker 1 (08:17):
You're right, I am the maintenance man, but I know
nothing you want to see Frank Lewis mister Bellow's financial advisor,
(08:38):
or Larry Addington his nephew. Okay, I can remember that.
Don't look so pained. I'll pick the paper up off
the floor before I leave. What's the matter, Rollins? I'm quiet, Okay,
I don't leave here. You as if you could hear me?
Speaker 3 (08:56):
What's up?
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Relins?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
He's something I ought to be short of interest and Inspector.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Well, Blackie's confession was the truth. Uh Sam Bellas sits

chair sort of dead too, sure is I have got
plenty's sort of dead too? Right?

And thank me for just tagging along. I suppose.
Speaker 6 (09:41):
Now I am not expecting anymore.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Well let's see who you are not expecting?
Speaker 1 (09:44):
AHAs it is my secret lover, I confess all.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
Yes, some secret lover. Thank you, Yes he's coming. He
was just leading, wasn't part of the evening? Is over?
You're here, inspector. What do you want?
Speaker 1 (10:03):
You're Blackie?
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Mary's got a priority, apparent, Charlie King, Oh.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
How I think we met on the phones ever weeks ago?
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Oh that's right, so you did.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
I hope you enjoyed yourself this evening blanking because it's
the last fun you're going to have for a long time.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Why are you resigning from the pores.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
I'm wrestling you for.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
Murder, Blackie, now folded. I killed sam Bella's Blackie.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
You said you didn't see him.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
I didn't.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Oh no, of course not. How do you know he
he found dead? Was he he was? Come on, Blankie,
I'm taking it down a headquarter Saturday.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Don't be stupid and put that gun.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
I'll put it away when you're tucked away in jail.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Tell on, all right, I inspected you win. But let
me get my raincoat with you from the kitchen.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Oh no, you don't. But all I want to do
into the kitchen and tuck out the back waypect get
your raincoat for you? Which is the kitchen door? Blackie happy? Yes,
I'm happy about the whole thing too. Don't worry Charlie.
Oh so everybody's happy him. That's fine. I went at
the kitchen door. Why I don't move, Blakie.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
I still have a gun on you.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Yes, he can talk of me on Paraday. I'm leaving.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Got me out from under the fate liking pony what
so you can arrest me for.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
Meda I think doing I'm leaving Paraday. But I've got
an idea though, fight him at least that's new.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
And now back to Boston Blackie. For a reason he
chose to keep to himself. Charlie Kingston, Blackie's millionaire friend,
asked Blackie to do anything in his power to see
and talk to a man named Sam Bellow.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Unable to break into Bella's.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
Home, Blackie came to inspect the Paraday with the story
that he had killed Themllows in his home and should
be taken to the scene of the crime. But Parody
suspected black his confession was a trick and went to
Bellow's home alone. There he found Bellows murdered. Parody then
tried to arrest Blackie for murder, but Blackie, as usual escape.
(12:16):
It is early the next morning, as we returned to
our story, Blacking and Charlie Kingston rested. As policemen are
climbing the steps of Sam Bellow's house.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
Are you sure we'll get by the policeman at the
top of the stairs.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Look at your clothes wear policemen too? Remember was this police?
Speaker 2 (12:37):
God recognized him?
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Remember the advisor in my campro Dan.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Good morning, boys, beg your saint to relieve us.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
Eh.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
The relief man are coming up in a few minutes, Eh,
Parady sent up as a special detail.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Okay, you're going in, Come on, Charlie. I wait to
open the door for it. Thanks.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
Eh.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Who else is here?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Al Ray Thompson? He jumps there.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Okay, thanks. Well that wasn't hard, wasn't no. But I'm
not used to this sort of thing. You'll live longer
you don't try to get used to it, Charlie. What's
a look around? What do you expect to find something
that will lead us to Bella's murderer and take me
off a spot?
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Well, let's hope we find it, say Charley.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
Look at this crumpled paper on the core. Yeah, seems
to be a note of sometimes mmm. Try to look
at it.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Seems to be two different.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Kinds of handwriting on it, as as.
Speaker 5 (13:36):
If one person were asking questions and the other answering him.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Paraday wrote the questions, I know that scrawlokers anywhere? Who
wrote the answers? Someone who calls himself a maintenance man.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
He says he knows nothing, but mentions a financial advisor
named Frank Lewis and a nephew, Larry Addington, I said,
Paraday obviously met someone here in this house who could.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Neither hear nor talk. M had to write everything down.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
I suppose his information is useless, though not at all.
A nephew and a financial advisor might be a perfect
combination of room murder.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
I think I'll go up and see that advisor as
soon as we're through here. Mm mm, COM's coming in
the front door. Probably the relief gun.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Oh that's special.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Indeed, there your sentence in the house now, Oh special, da,
what are.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
You talking about?
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Well, this is fine. Come on, Charlie, have the back door.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
If there isn't the back exit, well, in that case,
we'll get up speed, put our heads down and make one.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Yes, Frank Lewis, Yes, I'm special police investigator John Jones.
You were Sam Bellow's financial advisor, won't you.
Speaker 4 (14:47):
Yes.
Speaker 7 (14:48):
I've had one visit from the police this morning, and
Inspector Faraday.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
I told him everything I could. Faraday sent me back
to ask a few more questions if you don't mind.
Speaker 7 (14:58):
Why mind, because I'm busy. But I oppose there's nothing
I can do.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
What else do you wanna know more about the will?
Speaker 1 (15:04):
I told him, Spector Charaday, everything I know the night
before last Bellows changed his will. Formerly, the entire estate
was to be left to Larry Addington, his nephew, with
the exception of five thousand to Ben Atkins, the deaf
and dumb handyman in.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
Bellow's home, who did the new will benefit.
Speaker 7 (15:22):
Atkins again for five thousand dollars.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
But instead of the remainder of the estate.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
About one hundred thousand dollars being left for the nephew,
Bellows chose to leave.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
It to some charity, a dog and cat hospital. Any
reason for doing this just so his nephew wouldn't get it?
Speaker 7 (15:38):
Cig'rette no thanks of mind?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Five smoke, of course not.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
You say the will was changed the night before last
and Larry Addington, the nephew, was cut out.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Did Addington know this? I don't see how it was possible.
Bellows and his nephew seldom spoke to each other. Then
it's possible. Isn't it that Addington killed his uncle thinking
he'd get his money. Possible?
Speaker 7 (16:01):
He's in constant trouble, living above his means.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
He needs money. Say you smoke more of a cigarette
than I thought? Why do you say that?
Speaker 1 (16:08):
I mean cigarettes and the sash tray here. I bet
if they've been puffed more than two or three times.
Speaker 7 (16:12):
Oh, they were left there by a client of mine
who was here just a few minutes ago.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Nervous Sir Barry.
Speaker 7 (16:17):
Look what he does the paper matches, take the ends
and rips him up the middle.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Anything else I can tell you about the sam Bellos matter?
Speaker 3 (16:24):
Yes? Where can I get in touch with Larry Addington?
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Larry lives at the baker house?
Speaker 3 (16:29):
Saying do you think Larry might've killed his uncle? Believing
he was still mentioned in the will? Yes?
Speaker 4 (16:34):
I do.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
And I have an idea that your little Larry of
Larry yourself.
Speaker 6 (16:44):
You have to h still, mister adding didn't, well, hurry
up with your mark. I'm trying to.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
Hurry, Miss Standingson.
Speaker 7 (16:50):
I can't say the don't stands.
Speaker 6 (16:52):
I don't like to stand still. Oh, he was gonna
be interrupted again? Come in?
Speaker 2 (16:58):
I told him not to, Harry Addingson In the end.
Speaker 6 (17:00):
I'm Larry Addington good.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
I'd like to talk to you.
Speaker 6 (17:03):
That's some other time. I'm busy having a fitting. Did
my man let you come in here?
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Please? Riding stands to uh? Where do you intend going?
In that tweet? Addington or a racetrack.
Speaker 6 (17:13):
Uh, your opinion is uncalled for? On so's your presence?
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Damn is Addington?
Speaker 7 (17:16):
How do you like the way the coat hangs out?
Speaker 6 (17:18):
Mm? Well, I guess it's all right.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Why all the new clothes, Addington?
Speaker 6 (17:23):
Anything wrong with a few new suits? Since my uncle
was killed?
Speaker 3 (17:25):
I'm rich, are you?
Speaker 6 (17:27):
Yes? Yes? I uh wanna look the part of a
man who has just come into a fortune.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Well look the part if you want to, Addington. But
you haven't come into a dime.
Speaker 6 (17:35):
Huh. Where do you read the paper?
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Where do you read the will?
Speaker 6 (17:39):
My uncle left his money to me? Uh, mister Martin, Yes,
don't just stand there. Don't have all day?
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (17:45):
I was interested in this man's remark about your uncle's will.
Speaker 6 (17:49):
What remark?
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Uh? Uh?
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Forgive me?
Speaker 1 (17:51):
But he said, I said, Uh, Addington here was completely
cut out of his uncle's will.
Speaker 6 (17:56):
What that's not true. I saw my uncle's will last week.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
Well you should I've seen it last night or the
night before last, just before he was killed.
Speaker 6 (18:03):
He changed it.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
He made a slight amendment, Addington. He cut me off
without a cent. How do you know I just talked
with Frank Lewis. He was your uncle's financial advisor.
Speaker 6 (18:14):
Why would he tell you anything?
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Er, I have what you might call a slight interest
in your uncle's murder. You weren't suggesting that if someone
had suggested to you that your uncle was going to
change his will, you might have killed him before he
had had a chance to change it.
Speaker 6 (18:31):
I didn't know his will was going to be changed.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
That'll be hard to prove.
Speaker 6 (18:35):
Well, just try to prove I killed him.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
You know something, Well, that's exactly what I'm going to do. Hello, Charlie,
is Blackie Y's Blackie?
Speaker 5 (18:58):
Mary said you were gonna see Bellows financially advisor and
the nebew addingson how things worked out?
Speaker 3 (19:03):
All right? So far I just left a nephew.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Is he a man?
Speaker 3 (19:06):
I don't know. He thought he was going to get
his uncle's money, so he might have killed him.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
The person we've overlooked is the deaf and dumb handyman Paraday,
fan of the Bellow's house. When he discovered the body.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
How could he be involved?
Speaker 1 (19:18):
He was left five thousand dollars and every will Bellows wrote.
He might have discovered the Bellows had cut the nephew
off and killed his employer, thinking maybe suspicion would be
all on the angry nephew well as was a man
of his means.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Would kill for five thousand, wouldn't be?
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Surelye there have been murders for five cents. I think
I'm gonna get some more dope on that handyman.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
A blackie, you can get back into Bellow's house.
Speaker 5 (19:43):
Paraday will have his policeman checking everyone who comes within.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
A block of the place.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
Now I know it.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
I've been ducking Faraday so much today I'm getting stoop shoulder.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
He's Mary there?
Speaker 6 (19:52):
Oh no, she isn't.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
I thought I could send her into.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Bellow's house as a Oh well, I say, a newspaper reporter.
He could get by Paraday's then with dark glasses and
a new hairdoo, I know where you can read them.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
She just left here to take Happy down to the
Mayfair Dog Hospital for a general checkup.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Oh thanks, Charlie, I'll go down there and meet it.
Maybe I even belong with the dogs, after the way
Faraday has been hounding me.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Something I can do for you.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Sir, Yes, is there a young lady here with a
rather large dog? She brought him in for a check up.
I'd think No, there isn't. This is the Mayfair Animal Hospital.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Listen, yes it is.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Well. I guess I got here too soon? Mind if
I wait?
Speaker 2 (20:37):
Not at all?
Speaker 3 (20:39):
Is there a chair or a bench around her?
Speaker 2 (20:42):
I should like to wait in my office?
Speaker 6 (20:43):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Thanks this way?
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Think that chair will be comfortable.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
No, I think I've seen your picture in the Paykert
strange wet papers will do from yous sometimes?
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Yes, she certainly look familiar. I'm seth peters cigarette? Nothing
mind if I smoke? Not at all? Uh? There written,
by any chance?
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Another Mayfair Animal Hospital and tangy not that I know of. Mm,
marry unhappy? Must have been delayed on the way down here?
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Mm? What'd you say?
Speaker 6 (21:15):
There?
Speaker 3 (21:16):
But nothing? Nothing? Oh? Do you or we do that?
Speaker 2 (21:22):
Huh? Uh? Take what?
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Take those matches and tell them nervous?
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Have it to try to break it?
Speaker 3 (21:28):
But I can't. Oh, I see.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Would you mind pushing the astray over this way?
Speaker 3 (21:33):
Of course?
Speaker 1 (21:33):
Not.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
I'll put your cigarette out.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
How's your friend Frank Lewis? Who Frank Lewis? The financial advisor?
I don't know any of Frank Lewis? Why do you
ask that cigarette of yours? Makes me ask my cigarette?
Nothing wrong with it. Why no, you put it out
rather suddenly.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Oh, I never take more than three or four drags.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
And you don't know Frank Lewis. Oh, has he had
the same habit?
Speaker 1 (22:04):
No, but you're lying when you say you don't know him.
He has a client who does the same thing with
matches and cigarettes. You Well, here, Lewis said, Sam Bellows
left his money.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
To a dog and cat hospital. I think if I
looked at Bellow's will, I'd find that it was this
place of yours.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
I don't know about that.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
You said you didn't know Frank Lewis. Yeah, you were
up in his office this morning.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
It's not true.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
The ashtray in his desk was filled with torn matches
and cigarettes barely smoked.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
You owned this place, yes you.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
That doesn't mean a thing.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
It means plenty. It means you killed Bellows for his
money and then went to Lewis to collect the fact
that he denied you'd been there makes him part of
the scheme. Just because I owned this place, you think
I killed Bellows, h it'd be worth your while. Well,
I don't own this place.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
I'm merely front for the man who does.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
All right, who's the real owner, Frank Lewis, he's the
man you want.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Didn't even know Bellis was that. Le Lowis called me
to his office this morning, Jim.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
On Peter's you're going down a police headquarter.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
I tell you I didn't kill anyone Bluist. He forced
Bellows to change his will night before last, then killed him.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
Set that story to music, Peter's because when we get
the police headquarters, you're going to sing.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Well, I guess that's about all the rose to tell Mary.
When Peter's got through talking, Paraday had.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Lewis and jail.
Speaker 7 (23:28):
That clears up everything, blast Year, except why you wanted
to get into see Bellows in the first place.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Because Charlie here asked me to.
Speaker 5 (23:35):
I didn't know it was going to get you into
such trouble, buddy.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Oh I don't mind trouble, Charlie, but I do like
to know why I'm getting into it.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
You never did tell me why you wanted me to see.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Bellows or Bellows was an engineer in one of my plants.
A few years ago, he disappeared with some important blueprint
for business reasons. I had to find Bellows and recover
the prince. Quietly, I thought it would be best to
come to you.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Well, we certainly had a quiet time of it.
Speaker 6 (24:01):
Hey, let's not forget that Charlie dog helped starve this case.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
I suppose Happy did have a share in this.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Sure, I think Expected Paraday should give.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
Happier medals or make him a member of the board.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Oh Black, you don't be stilly.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
How could Happy be a police dog?
Speaker 6 (24:15):
He doesn't even begin.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
To look like one.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Secret service, Oh Ladi
Twenty thirty and the bulls eye of one hundred, one
hundred and fifty points. Let's see you do better than
that with three dots one hand, Go ahead, go ahead, Towson,
fifty thirty on the line, almost a bulls eye. But
it's only seventy five?
Speaker 2 (00:46):
What's seventy five?
Speaker 3 (00:47):
It's like the parody twice you're like.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
You who said you could commit a police headquarters blanking.
Get out of here.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
Say you've prid was taught me in here yourself a
dozen times?
Speaker 1 (00:54):
What about it? Get out of here. I'm warning you.
One of these darts will go wild?
Speaker 3 (00:58):
How many points if I catch it between the teeth?
Speaker 1 (01:01):
What do you want?
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Like you? Which shows how easy I am? Just satisfying? Okay,
on a hand.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Get lost. We'll go on with our game a little later.
I better be alone with this game.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Sucket of guy that Monahan, what do he want? Like he?
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Come on, I'm busy. I've come down here to make
you a very happy person, Inspector. We'll leave now when
you got what you came for.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
I get away from that target.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Thirty on the line, Paraday, it's only ten ever hear
of a guy named Bellows?
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Now a fifty lucky shot. Sam Bellow's a cripple.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
I never heard of him. Is that all you came
down here for seventy five had? That's better?
Speaker 3 (01:41):
That's awful.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
I suppose you can do better than you.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
The answer is yes, no matter what you might be
referring to. Give me the dog.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Now, three is all you get? Then you get moving.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
You're here.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
I think you better get down and see that Sam
Bellow's inspector.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Now you do, man, that's nice here?
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Why because he's dead, will die?
Speaker 1 (01:59):
That's one hundred So he's dead. So what So we
probably died a natural cause? If that's true enough.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
There's nothing unnatural about dying when you've been murdered. Bullseye
one hundred.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Points more Fellows has been murdered. How do you know that?
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Come on, come on talk, you're inspected. You see I
killed him full dying hour.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Back to Richard Kalmer's Boston blackbe enemy to those who
make him an enemy, friend to those who have no friends.
How many more times do I have to tell you, Paraday,
I killed the guy you expect me to fall first
story like that. I'm beginning to see why I have
to sell so many cases for you.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
You won't even believe a confession.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
All right, Vicky, what's the trick?
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Paraday?
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Someday you'll be arrested for impersonating a police officer.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
It's no trick. I tell you I killed Sam Bellows.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Where's the body?
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Now?
Speaker 1 (02:55):
You're getting smart inspected in an old brown stone house
at the corner of West Boulevard one hundred and tenth.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
All right, I'll go have a look. You mean we'll
go have a look.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
I'll go have a look. You'll go get lost. You're
wanting to go with me some kind of a gag,
and I'm not falling.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
For my hard times have changed.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
You're usually trying to catch me for doing something I
didn't do. This time, I confess to a murder, and
you want to get rid of me. If you don't
get out of here, Plank, I'll arrest you for I'll
think of something. If you found Sam Bellow's body, inspector,
maybe a reason to arrest me will occur to you, Mary,
(03:32):
that's probably Charlie Kingston let him in with him?
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Of course?
Speaker 1 (03:34):
That what is he?
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Down?
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Happy?
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Down down?
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Where did you get your sidekick Charley? At a kennel
or a stable?
Speaker 1 (03:53):
I'm gonna jump over.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
You, and you're gonna have my ride. I'm just as
soon as i'm plowing.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Oh, Charlie, what is a dog? If that's a dog,
what's a horse. I'll admit he's a little large blackie,
but he's harmless, harmless. He cried with the Bowers before
we were even interview.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Oh no, no, no, Mary, he was just making you
out of here happy.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
He's a very splaining garnimal.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Pays no attention to me.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Or do anyone else.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
He knows well.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
He only likes spraining.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Will introduce the film quick before it's dampeded.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Maybe I better put it in the kitchen.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Good idea. Oh close the hold when you blackly?
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Sure?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Come on, come on happy nice. Oh wait a minute, Charlie,
the kitchen dooral was out. Would you pull it towards you?
Speaker 3 (04:39):
I hope you don't mind?
Speaker 6 (04:40):
Is Happy plays in here? Mary?
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Of course she doesn't, Charlie.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
She wants a new kitchen anyway. What kind of a
dog is that, Charlie? Besides big, we'll talk about Happy later.
I want to know if you saw Sam Bellow. His
house is impossible to break into, and he wouldn't see
me in any normal way. So I want to inspect
the and told him I had killed the Bellows.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
What Lankie, don't worry. He didn't blieve me. He wanted
to investigate, but he wouldn't take me with him, So
that idea is wasted. Maybe he went too far.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Can't we talk about something besides the movies? Just before dinner?
Speaker 3 (05:15):
I'm sorry, Mary, Well this this is just before dinner.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Isn't it.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
I'll forgive the delay.
Speaker 6 (05:21):
Mary.
Speaker 5 (05:22):
You can have anything your heart desires at any restaurant.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
And then, oh wonderful, what are we waiting.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
For, Charlie. Isn't the girl in love supposed to lose
her appetite?
Speaker 7 (05:30):
Well, that's the way I always heard it.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
Mary, How you must hate me?
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Come on, come on around and seven't you got through
that door yet?
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Come on us? Hung up?
Speaker 1 (05:43):
This is just in a settling torch inspective her day,
not a twenty millimeter tank gone.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
And this is a steel door.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
EMM. Now I know I Blanket gave him that crock
and bull story about killing this guy Bellows. Why there's
probably no such guy as Bellows. We rang every bell
we could fire, nobody answered.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
And why did Blackie say killed him.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
There's something in this house blank he wants, and he
figured he could steal it right under my nose once
he got inside.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
What made him think you'd get him?
Speaker 1 (06:11):
He knows I'd chip my way barehanded through a brick
wall to pins something on him. Maybe nobody answers a
donor corn of everybody inside is dead, maybe black it
wasn't lying. All right, that'll be enough plan of your own.
And keep busy with that blow torch.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
I want to she's inspector. How we can walk in?
Or hasn't been open.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
For a while?
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Well, somebody lives here a rent. There's a light at
the end of the hall, Wookie, John. You've been to
too many movies?
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Hey, okay, Hey you here? Hey you guys, Yeah, Jack,
I chose you.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
You saw too many movies.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Hey, you just keep walking down the hall.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
And he's not dead anyhow. Maybe he's a zombie.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
The movie once or twice your show mistake.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Come on, let's go after it.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Hey you, what's the matter?
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Can't you here?
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Wait a minute, Joe brad Merlins, I got him. What
are you looking so startled for?
Speaker 3 (07:12):
We called you? Hey, inspector, I would right, guys.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Yeah, if you're right, Hey, you can't you talk block?
Look like this, I move my mouth talk talk talk, Yeah,
I got it, Give me a patt a tention. Uh.
I'll write notes to this guy and he.
Speaker 6 (07:37):
Can write back to me here.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
What if you can't write, then I'll make him your
boss get lost?
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Will you?
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Rowlins? Have a look around and see what's in the
rest of the house here? All right, you and I
are gonna have a little spelling bee. And you're right,
I don't never mind. I'll just write out a question.
See if you can write the answer.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Does a Fellows live here?
Speaker 1 (08:05):
I'll take a look at it. Well, I hope, and
not means yes, you'll have to write this answer though.
Who are you here?
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Now?
Speaker 1 (08:17):
You're right, I am the maintenance man, but I know
nothing you want to see Frank Lewis mister Bellow's financial advisor,
(08:38):
or Larry Addington his nephew. Okay, I can remember that.
Don't look so pained. I'll pick the paper up off
the floor before I leave. What's the matter, Rollins? I'm quiet, Okay,
I don't leave here. You as if you could hear me?
Speaker 3 (08:56):
What's up?
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Relins?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
He's something I ought to be short of interest and Inspector.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Well, Blackie's confession was the truth. Uh Sam Bellas sits
in his big red wheelchair with a knife in his
chair sort of dead too, sure is I have got
plenty's sort of dead too? Right?
Speaker 5 (09:20):
Well, thanks Mary for a wonderful evening. Go sure you
don't mind if I leave happy hearing or Boblin overnight.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Oh court not.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Charlie's a lovely George and he seems to like get
there in my kitchen.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
Well, thanks, and thanks for the wonderful evening, dude, and
thank you for the wonderful dinner.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
And thank me for just tagging along. I suppose.
Speaker 6 (09:41):
Now I am not expecting anymore.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Well let's see who you are not expecting?
Speaker 1 (09:44):
AHAs it is my secret lover, I confess all.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
Yes, some secret lover. Thank you, Yes he's coming. He
was just leading, wasn't part of the evening? Is over?
You're here, inspector. What do you want?
Speaker 1 (10:03):
You're Blackie?
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Mary's got a priority, apparent, Charlie King, Oh.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
How I think we met on the phones ever weeks ago?
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Oh that's right, so you did.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
I hope you enjoyed yourself this evening blanking because it's
the last fun you're going to have for a long time.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Why are you resigning from the pores.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
I'm wrestling you for.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
Murder, Blackie, now folded. I killed sam Bella's Blackie.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
You said you didn't see him.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
I didn't.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Oh no, of course not. How do you know he
he found dead? Was he he was? Come on, Blankie,
I'm taking it down a headquarter Saturday.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Don't be stupid and put that gun.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
I'll put it away when you're tucked away in jail.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Tell on, all right, I inspected you win. But let
me get my raincoat with you from the kitchen.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Oh no, you don't. But all I want to do
into the kitchen and tuck out the back waypect get
your raincoat for you? Which is the kitchen door? Blackie happy? Yes,
I'm happy about the whole thing too. Don't worry Charlie.
Oh so everybody's happy him. That's fine. I went at
the kitchen door. Why I don't move, Blakie.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
I still have a gun on you.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Yes, he can talk of me on Paraday. I'm leaving.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Got me out from under the fate liking pony what
so you can arrest me for.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
Meda I think doing I'm leaving Paraday. But I've got
an idea though, fight him at least that's new.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
And now back to Boston Blackie. For a reason he
chose to keep to himself. Charlie Kingston, Blackie's millionaire friend,
asked Blackie to do anything in his power to see
and talk to a man named Sam Bellow.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Unable to break into Bella's.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
Home, Blackie came to inspect the Paraday with the story
that he had killed Themllows in his home and should
be taken to the scene of the crime. But Parody
suspected black his confession was a trick and went to
Bellow's home alone. There he found Bellows murdered. Parody then
tried to arrest Blackie for murder, but Blackie, as usual escape.
(12:16):
It is early the next morning, as we returned to
our story, Blacking and Charlie Kingston rested. As policemen are
climbing the steps of Sam Bellow's house.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
Are you sure we'll get by the policeman at the
top of the stairs.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Look at your clothes wear policemen too? Remember was this police?
Speaker 2 (12:37):
God recognized him?
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Remember the advisor in my campro Dan.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Good morning, boys, beg your saint to relieve us.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
Eh.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
The relief man are coming up in a few minutes, Eh,
Parady sent up as a special detail.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Okay, you're going in, Come on, Charlie. I wait to
open the door for it. Thanks.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
Eh.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Who else is here?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Al Ray Thompson? He jumps there.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Okay, thanks. Well that wasn't hard, wasn't no. But I'm
not used to this sort of thing. You'll live longer
you don't try to get used to it, Charlie. What's
a look around? What do you expect to find something
that will lead us to Bella's murderer and take me
off a spot?
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Well, let's hope we find it, say Charley.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
Look at this crumpled paper on the core. Yeah, seems
to be a note of sometimes mmm. Try to look
at it.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Seems to be two different.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Kinds of handwriting on it, as as.
Speaker 5 (13:36):
If one person were asking questions and the other answering him.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Paraday wrote the questions, I know that scrawlokers anywhere? Who
wrote the answers? Someone who calls himself a maintenance man.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
He says he knows nothing, but mentions a financial advisor
named Frank Lewis and a nephew, Larry Addington, I said,
Paraday obviously met someone here in this house who could.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Neither hear nor talk. M had to write everything down.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
I suppose his information is useless, though not at all.
A nephew and a financial advisor might be a perfect
combination of room murder.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
I think I'll go up and see that advisor as
soon as we're through here. Mm mm, COM's coming in
the front door. Probably the relief gun.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Oh that's special.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Indeed, there your sentence in the house now, Oh special, da,
what are.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
You talking about?
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Well, this is fine. Come on, Charlie, have the back door.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
If there isn't the back exit, well, in that case,
we'll get up speed, put our heads down and make one.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Yes, Frank Lewis, Yes, I'm special police investigator John Jones.
You were Sam Bellow's financial advisor, won't you.
Speaker 4 (14:47):
Yes.
Speaker 7 (14:48):
I've had one visit from the police this morning, and
Inspector Faraday.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
I told him everything I could. Faraday sent me back
to ask a few more questions if you don't mind.
Speaker 7 (14:58):
Why mind, because I'm busy. But I oppose there's nothing
I can do.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
What else do you wanna know more about the will?
Speaker 1 (15:04):
I told him, Spector Charaday, everything I know the night
before last Bellows changed his will. Formerly, the entire estate
was to be left to Larry Addington, his nephew, with
the exception of five thousand to Ben Atkins, the deaf
and dumb handyman in.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
Bellow's home, who did the new will benefit.
Speaker 7 (15:22):
Atkins again for five thousand dollars.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
But instead of the remainder of the estate.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
About one hundred thousand dollars being left for the nephew,
Bellows chose to leave.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
It to some charity, a dog and cat hospital. Any
reason for doing this just so his nephew wouldn't get it?
Speaker 7 (15:38):
Cig'rette no thanks of mind?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Five smoke, of course not.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
You say the will was changed the night before last
and Larry Addington, the nephew, was cut out.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Did Addington know this? I don't see how it was possible.
Bellows and his nephew seldom spoke to each other. Then
it's possible. Isn't it that Addington killed his uncle thinking
he'd get his money. Possible?
Speaker 7 (16:01):
He's in constant trouble, living above his means.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
He needs money. Say you smoke more of a cigarette
than I thought? Why do you say that?
Speaker 1 (16:08):
I mean cigarettes and the sash tray here. I bet
if they've been puffed more than two or three times.
Speaker 7 (16:12):
Oh, they were left there by a client of mine
who was here just a few minutes ago.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Nervous Sir Barry.
Speaker 7 (16:17):
Look what he does the paper matches, take the ends
and rips him up the middle.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Anything else I can tell you about the sam Bellos matter?
Speaker 3 (16:24):
Yes? Where can I get in touch with Larry Addington?
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Larry lives at the baker house?
Speaker 3 (16:29):
Saying do you think Larry might've killed his uncle? Believing
he was still mentioned in the will? Yes?
Speaker 4 (16:34):
I do.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
And I have an idea that your little Larry of
Larry yourself.
Speaker 6 (16:44):
You have to h still, mister adding didn't, well, hurry
up with your mark. I'm trying to.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
Hurry, Miss Standingson.
Speaker 7 (16:50):
I can't say the don't stands.
Speaker 6 (16:52):
I don't like to stand still. Oh, he was gonna
be interrupted again? Come in?
Speaker 2 (16:58):
I told him not to, Harry Addingson In the end.
Speaker 6 (17:00):
I'm Larry Addington good.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
I'd like to talk to you.
Speaker 6 (17:03):
That's some other time. I'm busy having a fitting. Did
my man let you come in here?
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Please? Riding stands to uh? Where do you intend going?
In that tweet? Addington or a racetrack.
Speaker 6 (17:13):
Uh, your opinion is uncalled for? On so's your presence?
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Damn is Addington?
Speaker 7 (17:16):
How do you like the way the coat hangs out?
Speaker 6 (17:18):
Mm? Well, I guess it's all right.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Why all the new clothes, Addington?
Speaker 6 (17:23):
Anything wrong with a few new suits? Since my uncle
was killed?
Speaker 3 (17:25):
I'm rich, are you?
Speaker 6 (17:27):
Yes? Yes? I uh wanna look the part of a
man who has just come into a fortune.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Well look the part if you want to, Addington. But
you haven't come into a dime.
Speaker 6 (17:35):
Huh. Where do you read the paper?
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Where do you read the will?
Speaker 6 (17:39):
My uncle left his money to me? Uh, mister Martin, Yes,
don't just stand there. Don't have all day?
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (17:45):
I was interested in this man's remark about your uncle's will.
Speaker 6 (17:49):
What remark?
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Uh? Uh?
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Forgive me?
Speaker 1 (17:51):
But he said, I said, Uh, Addington here was completely
cut out of his uncle's will.
Speaker 6 (17:56):
What that's not true. I saw my uncle's will last week.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
Well you should I've seen it last night or the
night before last, just before he was killed.
Speaker 6 (18:03):
He changed it.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
He made a slight amendment, Addington. He cut me off
without a cent. How do you know I just talked
with Frank Lewis. He was your uncle's financial advisor.
Speaker 6 (18:14):
Why would he tell you anything?
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Er, I have what you might call a slight interest
in your uncle's murder. You weren't suggesting that if someone
had suggested to you that your uncle was going to
change his will, you might have killed him before he
had had a chance to change it.
Speaker 6 (18:31):
I didn't know his will was going to be changed.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
That'll be hard to prove.
Speaker 6 (18:35):
Well, just try to prove I killed him.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
You know something, Well, that's exactly what I'm going to do. Hello, Charlie,
is Blackie Y's Blackie?
Speaker 5 (18:58):
Mary said you were gonna see Bellows financially advisor and
the nebew addingson how things worked out?
Speaker 3 (19:03):
All right? So far I just left a nephew.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Is he a man?
Speaker 3 (19:06):
I don't know. He thought he was going to get
his uncle's money, so he might have killed him.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
The person we've overlooked is the deaf and dumb handyman Paraday,
fan of the Bellow's house. When he discovered the body.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
How could he be involved?
Speaker 1 (19:18):
He was left five thousand dollars and every will Bellows wrote.
He might have discovered the Bellows had cut the nephew
off and killed his employer, thinking maybe suspicion would be
all on the angry nephew well as was a man
of his means.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Would kill for five thousand, wouldn't be?
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Surelye there have been murders for five cents. I think
I'm gonna get some more dope on that handyman.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
A blackie, you can get back into Bellow's house.
Speaker 5 (19:43):
Paraday will have his policeman checking everyone who comes within.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
A block of the place.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
Now I know it.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
I've been ducking Faraday so much today I'm getting stoop shoulder.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
He's Mary there?
Speaker 6 (19:52):
Oh no, she isn't.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
I thought I could send her into.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Bellow's house as a Oh well, I say, a newspaper reporter.
He could get by Paraday's then with dark glasses and
a new hairdoo, I know where you can read them.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
She just left here to take Happy down to the
Mayfair Dog Hospital for a general checkup.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Oh thanks, Charlie, I'll go down there and meet it.
Maybe I even belong with the dogs, after the way
Faraday has been hounding me.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Something I can do for you.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Sir, Yes, is there a young lady here with a
rather large dog? She brought him in for a check up.
I'd think No, there isn't. This is the Mayfair Animal Hospital.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Listen, yes it is.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Well. I guess I got here too soon? Mind if
I wait?
Speaker 2 (20:37):
Not at all?
Speaker 3 (20:39):
Is there a chair or a bench around her?
Speaker 2 (20:42):
I should like to wait in my office?
Speaker 6 (20:43):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Thanks this way?
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Think that chair will be comfortable.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
No, I think I've seen your picture in the Paykert
strange wet papers will do from yous sometimes?
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Yes, she certainly look familiar. I'm seth peters cigarette? Nothing
mind if I smoke? Not at all? Uh? There written,
by any chance?
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Another Mayfair Animal Hospital and tangy not that I know of. Mm,
marry unhappy? Must have been delayed on the way down here?
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Mm? What'd you say?
Speaker 6 (21:15):
There?
Speaker 3 (21:16):
But nothing? Nothing? Oh? Do you or we do that?
Speaker 2 (21:22):
Huh? Uh? Take what?
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Take those matches and tell them nervous?
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Have it to try to break it?
Speaker 3 (21:28):
But I can't. Oh, I see.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Would you mind pushing the astray over this way?
Speaker 3 (21:33):
Of course?
Speaker 1 (21:33):
Not.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
I'll put your cigarette out.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
How's your friend Frank Lewis? Who Frank Lewis? The financial advisor?
I don't know any of Frank Lewis? Why do you
ask that cigarette of yours? Makes me ask my cigarette?
Nothing wrong with it. Why no, you put it out
rather suddenly.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Oh, I never take more than three or four drags.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
And you don't know Frank Lewis. Oh, has he had
the same habit?
Speaker 1 (22:04):
No, but you're lying when you say you don't know him.
He has a client who does the same thing with
matches and cigarettes. You Well, here, Lewis said, Sam Bellows
left his money.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
To a dog and cat hospital. I think if I
looked at Bellow's will, I'd find that it was this
place of yours.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
I don't know about that.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
You said you didn't know Frank Lewis. Yeah, you were
up in his office this morning.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
It's not true.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
The ashtray in his desk was filled with torn matches
and cigarettes barely smoked.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
You owned this place, yes you.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
That doesn't mean a thing.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
It means plenty. It means you killed Bellows for his
money and then went to Lewis to collect the fact
that he denied you'd been there makes him part of
the scheme. Just because I owned this place, you think
I killed Bellows, h it'd be worth your while. Well,
I don't own this place.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
I'm merely front for the man who does.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
All right, who's the real owner, Frank Lewis, he's the
man you want.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Didn't even know Bellis was that. Le Lowis called me
to his office this morning, Jim.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
On Peter's you're going down a police headquarter.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
I tell you I didn't kill anyone Bluist. He forced
Bellows to change his will night before last, then killed him.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
Set that story to music, Peter's because when we get
the police headquarters, you're going to sing.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Well, I guess that's about all the rose to tell Mary.
When Peter's got through talking, Paraday had.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Lewis and jail.
Speaker 7 (23:28):
That clears up everything, blast Year, except why you wanted
to get into see Bellows in the first place.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Because Charlie here asked me to.
Speaker 5 (23:35):
I didn't know it was going to get you into
such trouble, buddy.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Oh I don't mind trouble, Charlie, but I do like
to know why I'm getting into it.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
You never did tell me why you wanted me to see.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Bellows or Bellows was an engineer in one of my plants.
A few years ago, he disappeared with some important blueprint
for business reasons. I had to find Bellows and recover
the prince. Quietly, I thought it would be best to
come to you.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Well, we certainly had a quiet time of it.
Speaker 6 (24:01):
Hey, let's not forget that Charlie dog helped starve this case.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
I suppose Happy did have a share in this.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Sure, I think Expected Paraday should give.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
Happier medals or make him a member of the board.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Oh Black, you don't be stilly.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
How could Happy be a police dog?
Speaker 6 (24:15):
He doesn't even begin.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
To look like one.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Secret service, Oh Ladi
