Speaker 3 (13:35):
So I bet myself here.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Before I even had planned to look for any notes,
I knew it wasn't any use, because lying on the

in piece of evidence was the corpse of Davis. I
didn't call your office right away, Chelsey, because I wanted
to get out of there and began asking some questions
before the trail was cold springs you enough, but a
man's hotel room. There were many items that belonged to
(15:20):
a woman, clothes, makeups, and so on, and they were
called him I'm the girl I bumped into getting out
of the elevator and this recalled to me the elevator operating.
Speaker 3 (15:29):

a short dock sin man coming up, Nama Davis.

Speaker 3 (15:55):
A thin doc man went up about eight thirty. Didn't

Did anyone else in the elevators?
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Then?
Speaker 3 (16:02):
I was stick in your mind. The only guy I

SIGs had a pock Monk's face on.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
On the back of one hand.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
He had a red staw tattoo.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Manning was going to reveal something about material being shipped.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
The China. Shipped was the word.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
I'd overlooked, and someone tattooed. It looked as if he
didn't belong in a good hotel and had the smell
of the waterfront on him.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
So I slashed myself.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
At Cologne and went looking for the man who knows
most about the strange smells of the waterfront. In fact,
he's one of them. He's an indiscredit, a very man,
a fungus on the freight trunk of honesty, a spider
and the lunch pail of lawfulness. Porky grouse, a stool pigeon.
So he has to climb down a ladder to tire
shoe lacer. I found him at a blue ladder and
(16:48):
bar put a captule the settle my stomach, ordered a
bottle of two grassers, and somehow forced myself to lay.
Speaker 8 (17:00):
Nerd better nerds, A good five, good time, Charlie's chase, buddy,

Speaker 1 (17:19):
I would tell me something, Porky, do you know anybody
who was shipping stuff that China from here, or someone
with a red fire tattooed on his hand.
Speaker 8 (17:28):
I mean that's such a hard don't think I could
speak a word out of it?
Speaker 3 (17:32):

Speaker 1 (17:55):
But if you can't think of anyone else, try to
remember where these drinks came from and talked accordingly.
Speaker 8 (18:00):
I only want to talk about Sam. They would get
me quick before my choice.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Have you ever heard of anyone shipping war goods of
China or through or a man with a red star.
Speaker 8 (18:08):

Speaker 1 (18:39):
I turned around and watch him stuttle out the door,
and I saw for the first time what must have
caused is hate.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
A face as evil as any I've seen these days
got out of yours house. They were saying say that Bill,
you indoor.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
The face moved for the door, Andrew, there's upon a
big body under a seat cat. His igns were shoved
into a pea jacket and his legs hit the floor.
I'd slowed Jack Hummer because he walked forward.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
There. You're trying to pump information out of grasp.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Why else would anyone in his right mind get ported
ground free, drink or stand that close to one?
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Oh? Are you or are you trying to find out? Franklin?
It's none of your slip pile.
Speaker 1 (19:15):

knocks guys like you all over every court in the world.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Now, don't make me mad. Why don't you make it
easy and tell me who you are and what you want.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
I never runs the questions. I just do they answer, Huh,

beat it out of here?
Speaker 3 (19:30):
Oh, I guess it's gonna have to be the hard way. Okay.
I just remember this after I get through with you.
I don't want never to see you down around here
again because you bother me.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Now it comes of the embarrassing part of my report.
Don't say I did everything I easily do, but this
kind of didn't work.

for the past few years field, but all was not lost.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
I was at passion right hand coming in from Pride

my good eye and on the back of that hand

Speaker 1 (21:17):
From another angual, like who owned the woman's things that
I saw in Size Manning's room?
Speaker 3 (21:22):
They belonged to mister Manning's life Greek. Are you sure
Manning had a wife? Well, they registered this man in
life missus stake. What did she look like?

her first name or is anything else a name?
Speaker 3 (21:42):
You know? Missus state? Not another thing? Well?
Speaker 1 (21:47):
It was a start at least she was obviously the
girl i'd met on the elevator. I looked up a
number of Manning's friends, but the first three or four
couldn't help me. But the first said that Manning had
married about six months ago and he had never seen
the white. Her name, as he remembered, was attorney.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
And her father was a ship chapter.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
I ran down the name Turney over at the maritime
office and discovered that he owned three ships. So if
we were in Poort on the first ship, the down wind,
they told me Tony lived down the other one it
was a western son.

She poured her misery out over my shoulder, and then
she told me the whole storrow she had met me
married Tyas Manning secretly against her father's will. When he
found out, he took her aboard one of his ships
and kept her prisoner. While she was aboard the ship,
she found out what her father was doing carrying es
central war material the communist China. So somehow smuggled the
information of the morning she did, and the arrangement was
(23:41):
that they were going to pray the information for her
father's blessing on their marriage. Once Manning got the information,
he wanted to ship more than he did his wife.
That's when the tubl started.

called him I'm the girl I bumped into getting out
of the elevator and this recalled to me the elevator operating.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
Yeah, I've seen her coming up and down a few times.
Speaker 6 (15:31):
I don't know who she is.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
You know Manning when you saw him?
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Yeah, oh, I knew him, the celebrities, but I can't
remember like everybody.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
Was a girl ever with him?
Speaker 1 (15:39):
If you remember, well, not that I remember, you recall
a short dock sin man coming up, Nama Davis.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
They don't pay me to remember the people.
Speaker 6 (15:47):
I just get paid to take him up and down,
and not very much either.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
You know this, if you remember an him, what ten bucks.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
Will do for your memories.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
A thin doc man went up about eight thirty. Didn't
see him come down though he was alone, said memory,
Did anyone else in the elevators?
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Then?
Speaker 3 (16:02):
I was stick in your mind. The only guy I
can remember is one It didn't look like you belonged here.
SIGs had a pock Monk's face on.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
On the back of one hand.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
He had a red staw tattoo.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Manning was going to reveal something about material being shipped.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
The China. Shipped was the word.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
I'd overlooked, and someone tattooed. It looked as if he
didn't belong in a good hotel and had the smell
of the waterfront on him.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
So I slashed myself.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
At Cologne and went looking for the man who knows
most about the strange smells of the waterfront. In fact,
he's one of them. He's an indiscredit, a very man,
a fungus on the freight trunk of honesty, a spider
and the lunch pail of lawfulness. Porky grouse, a stool pigeon.
So he has to climb down a ladder to tire
shoe lacer. I found him at a blue ladder and
(16:48):
bar put a captule the settle my stomach, ordered a
bottle of two grassers, and somehow forced myself to lay.
Speaker 8 (17:00):
Nerd better nerds, A good five, good time, Charlie's chase, buddy,
your par same.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Porky the other side of the table, please, I might
need room and case a fire I like.
Speaker 4 (17:12):

Speaker 1 (17:13):
Sam might can keep my eye on the window, all right,
am Sam Samuel to fire man, I can hardly seen.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Your poor cloud.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I would tell me something, Porky, do you know anybody
who was shipping stuff that China from here, or someone
with a red fire tattooed on his hand.
Speaker 8 (17:28):
I mean that's such a hard don't think I could
speak a word out of it?
Speaker 3 (17:32):
All right?
Speaker 8 (17:33):
He uh your prince?
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Same?
Speaker 4 (17:39):
Please uh stick dry? Sam, Okay, there's nor better like
the same.
Speaker 8 (17:46):
You would be utiful there was Where is that stool?
Speaker 3 (17:55):
Usually me?
Speaker 1 (17:55):
But if you can't think of anyone else, try to
remember where these drinks came from and talked accordingly.
Speaker 8 (18:00):
I only want to talk about Sam. They would get
me quick before my choice.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Have you ever heard of anyone shipping war goods of
China or through or a man with a red star.
Speaker 8 (18:08):
In his hands?
Speaker 1 (18:10):
Rather not answers that I don't see if these changes
your records, Oh you have, pat me see I hear
about somebody shipping goods to the moving Chinese?
Speaker 3 (18:27):
Uh huh, Sam, I don't get John gub come back.
Speaker 8 (18:31):
From Sary, said, I just remembered I left something home.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
On you don't have a home.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
I turned around and watch him stuttle out the door,
and I saw for the first time what must have
caused is hate.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
A face as evil as any I've seen these days
got out of yours house. They were saying say that Bill,
you indoor.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
The face moved for the door, Andrew, there's upon a
big body under a seat cat. His igns were shoved
into a pea jacket and his legs hit the floor.
I'd slowed Jack Hummer because he walked forward.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
There. You're trying to pump information out of grasp.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Why else would anyone in his right mind get ported
ground free, drink or stand that close to one?
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Oh? Are you or are you trying to find out? Franklin?
It's none of your slip pile.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
I grew up on the waterfront of a hardware as
knocks guys like you all over every court in the world.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Now, don't make me mad. Why don't you make it
easy and tell me who you are and what you want.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
I never runs the questions. I just do they answer, Huh,
are you gonna tell me something? Or I'm not gonna
beat it out of here?
Speaker 3 (19:30):
Oh, I guess it's gonna have to be the hard way. Okay.
I just remember this after I get through with you.
I don't want never to see you down around here
again because you bother me.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Now it comes of the embarrassing part of my report.
Don't say I did everything I easily do, but this
kind of didn't work.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Now I know out those other copies I batted around
for the past few years field, but all was not lost.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
I was at passion right hand coming in from Pride
that did the demon and it hit me right under
my good eye and on the back of that hand
was tattooed a big red stock. When I got up
from the floor, he was done, so was everyone else
in the place. With a bartender.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Oh you feel better now, mister, I tell you not
to have that last drink?
Speaker 4 (20:20):
What drink?
Speaker 3 (20:20):
Who was a guy who did it? Said? What knocked
me down? What do you think? Oh, brother, you really
got one on. I didn't see anybody knock you down.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
You didn't see a big redheaded guy and a pete
jacket took a swing at thing.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Look, I have a drink on the house, Nader, you'll
feel better. I don't dunk to me that last weekend routine?
Who was it?
Speaker 4 (20:37):
I figure with me.
Speaker 6 (20:38):
I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
What happened to all those other people who were drinking
here all? Let mister you can.
Speaker 4 (20:42):
Believe it or not.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
The only two people I've served in here tonight have
been you and porky grouse. And as for a guy
knocking you down, or you must have hallucinations? What's money?
Nothing work? And I knew nothing would either because the
sign is on there said, before anything more serious happened,
I got out of there, and by there, I mean both.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
The bar and the neighborhood. It was not that I
was scared, but I'd long ago learned the value of an.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
Order labor retreat or if they used to stay in
my neighborhood when I was a kid, he who hits
and runs away lived to hit another day.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
I decided to go at things.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
From another angual, like who owned the woman's things that
I saw in Size Manning's room?
Speaker 3 (21:22):
They belonged to mister Manning's life Greek. Are you sure
Manning had a wife? Well, they registered this man in
life missus stake. What did she look like?
Speaker 4 (21:29):
So good looking?
Speaker 3 (21:30):
Do next you know? Now they were talks about her.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
There was something strange in their relationship. What if she
never stayed here at night, she only came in in
the morning. And let's see the absolute Do you know
her first name or is anything else a name?
Speaker 3 (21:42):
You know? Missus state? Not another thing? Well?
Speaker 1 (21:47):
It was a start at least she was obviously the
girl i'd met on the elevator. I looked up a
number of Manning's friends, but the first three or four
couldn't help me. But the first said that Manning had
married about six months ago and he had never seen
the white. Her name, as he remembered, was attorney.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
And her father was a ship chapter.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
I ran down the name Turney over at the maritime
office and discovered that he owned three ships. So if
we were in Poort on the first ship, the down wind,
they told me Tony lived down the other one it
was a western son.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
A peer ninety two.

Speaker 2 (23:10):

Speaker 1 (23:20):
She poured her misery out over my shoulder, and then
she told me the whole storrow she had met me
married Tyas Manning secretly against her father's will. When he
found out, he took her aboard one of his ships
and kept her prisoner. While she was aboard the ship,
she found out what her father was doing carrying es
central war material the communist China. So somehow smuggled the
information of the morning she did, and the arrangement was
(23:41):
that they were going to pray the information for her
father's blessing on their marriage. Once Manning got the information,
he wanted to ship more than he did his wife.
That's when the tubl started.
Speaker 4 (23:51):
He comes here, it comes. He got out of the
ways a back room.
