Petree Wine brings you Dazzle Lafbone and Nigel Bruce and

Speaker 2 (00:13):
The Petrie family, the family that took time to bring
you good wine.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Invites you to listen.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
To doctor Watson tell us another exciting adventure he shared
with his old friend at Master, Detective Sherlock Holmes. And
if you will, I hope you listen to me for
a second, because I want to tell you about a
wine that can make waiting for dinner a pleasure. The
wine is Petrie California's Sherriff. Any evening, well, let's say
tomorrow evening, right before dinner, for yourself, a glass of
(00:40):
Petrie Sherfy.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Just look at it.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
It's clear as crystal and a wonderful, deep ambered colored.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
One sure sign of a good Sherriff.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
And if you need further proof of just how good
Petrie sherry really is, tasty what wine at Petrie Sherry
has a flavor that you know comes right from the
heart of the great And if you like your sherry
dry rather than sweet, you really like Petree Pale Pry show.
There's no doubt about it. Petrie Sherry is one of
the most delicious before dinner wines in this swell country
(01:10):
of ours. Oh, and say, when you serve Petri sherry,
serve it proudly because those letters p E t R
I on the bottle, so the proudest name in the
history of American wine. And now I'm sure our good
(01:32):
friend doctor Watson's waiting for us. Let's go and job
there you are, mister good evening doctor, all alone tonight?
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Huh, yes, my boy, you can call a man alone
when he petishes, pipe his books and the good port
his elbow.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Take off and join the Thanks doctor, help us up
to the pot.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
There's some rather special tobacco the jar over there? Fine?
Speaker 1 (01:54):
And now doctor, are you ready to tell us tonight's
new share?
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Like cos I am, mister b and if you find
it the most unusual story. It began on a winter's
night in eighteen hundred and ninety six. Holmes and I
had gone to a fetter in the East end of
London to see a performance of a famous old English
melodrama called Sweeheit Tard The Demon Barber of Piet Street.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
It's a good, blood thirsty title.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Back Demon Barber Sstands is a only specialized in close shades.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
Gracious me, mister Bertill that almost unforgivable. He was a
murderer of voracious appetite who faced his victims in a
specially constructed barber's chair, cut their throats, and then pressed
the lever that would swing the chair over and cant
the unfortunate victim into a horrible cellar beneath his shop.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
This is only a stage play, you're talking about, doctor.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
As my story begins, we were seated in a private
box watching one of the closing scenes. Holmes was leaning
forward in his chair, following the action on the stage
with an obvious delight, while I set beside him equally
in growth. An act by the name of Mark Comphors
was playing the part of Sweeney Todd, and the one
could deny that he was playing Where are you going, Tobiah?
(03:11):
Who is the nearest magistrate Sweeney Todd to be now
to repeed me through old blood and murder? You have
pronounced chuckle into the chair with your and over and
down into the capt all ha haka.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
There whence comes this apparitions the ghost of another customer
of mine. The yawning grave whields up his fastly inmates
to prove me guilty.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Dud will have done. See he is there. He comes
to accuse me of his murder.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
Oh send me to that I that slew you believe
my uncle kill me?
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Let me believe ha.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Ha upon my saw homes act full of Mark Hamphers
is the most slid actor that I've ever seen.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Honest say, I find him chanting Watson.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
It seems to me he's really caught the flavor of
this murderous monsterpiece. After all, a restrained performance for barbersween
it's hard with the unthinkable first.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Word, I must say. His makeup seems rather overdone. No barber,
but with such enormous beard. The most impractical probably getting
the customers faces. By the way I look from the
program that Mark Hampers, as well as being the principal actor,
is also the owner of the company.
Speaker 6 (04:41):
It's the current friend towards the actor manager as.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
The help the sign on thing current.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Excuse me, that is one of you, gentlemen, mister s A.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
I was asked to give you this note.
Speaker 7 (04:53):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Who else knows that you're the home find out?
Speaker 6 (04:58):
Ah, there's no is from my comforts our actor manager
janders to Holmes, I recognize you in your box, please
some of my dressing room mark the performat. My sanity
and even the safety of London perhaps depends on your compliance.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
Of the safety of London. I wonder what on earth you.
Speaker 7 (05:19):
Mean, my dear fellow.
Speaker 6 (05:21):
We can only discover by going backstage to medium as
it is the curtains going up from the last scene
I see for a little longer. We must possess our
souls and patience, mister Sherlock Holmes, Yes, sir, my name
(05:43):
is Lindsay, Jerrick Lindsay.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
I'm the business manager. Mister hump has.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Asked me to beat through the stage door because you're busy.
Speaker 7 (05:49):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Now this is my colleague, doctor Watson. Are you doctor?
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Will you? Will you follow the sea?
Speaker 6 (05:56):
Excuse me asking mister Lindsay, but surely you must be
related to that distinguished actor of some years back, Lytton Lindsay.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
He was my father.
Speaker 7 (06:02):
Mister resemblance is a strawberry.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
It's such a heritage to Lindsay.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
You must love the He'll probably sound like heresy, but
I hate it.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
However, it's the only thing I was trained for. And
there's good money to.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
Be making it sometimes, and money is the thing I
both like and want from mister Holmes.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
I do hope you were able to help Mark Humphreys.
Speaker 7 (06:25):
He certainly needs it.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
You know what seems to be his trouble. But he'll
have to tell you that Prince so.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
But his wife and I think there's Missus Humphreys now
marry ya. This is missus Shelock Holmes and Dr Watson.
Missus Mark Humprey Holmes.
Speaker 8 (06:42):
I'm so grateful that you're going to see Mark.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
He's in such a dreadful story.
Speaker 8 (06:47):
There have been times lately when when mister Lindsey and
I have been afraid he's going out of his mind,
haven't we there?
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Indeed we have.
Speaker 6 (06:53):
We're both dreadfully and in case, I hope I can
be of service in which is his dressing.
Speaker 8 (06:57):
Home, number one next door to mine? Jeric, I think
it'll be better if mister Holmes and doctor Watson go
in alone. I'm sure Michael stetmore freely.
Speaker 7 (07:05):
We're not in the room.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
I think perhaps that is a good idea.
Speaker 7 (07:07):
This is hump Is.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
We'll see you later on.
Speaker 9 (07:09):
Come on, well, thank Heaven, you're here.

Speaker 4 (07:29):
Gentlemen you're wondering why I asked you to come back.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
And see me?
Speaker 4 (07:34):
Of course naturally, then well I won't beat about the
bush and waste your time.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
That comes straight to the point I'm going mad.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
I know, I know it isn't fantastic, but it's true.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
I've often heard of access beginning to live ups off
the stage they play on it. Well, it's happened to me.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
I'm turning into another Sweeny Todd, the character I'm portaying on.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
The stage suggesting, sir that you're a potential murderer.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Yes, I am.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
What reason do you have for holding that beleef reason?
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Listen to this?
Speaker 4 (08:03):
Three times in the past week, I've wakened in the
morning to find my boots covered with mud and my
razor stained with blood.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
God, I had no recollection of any untoward events during
the night.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
None have you ever predicted to the unfortunate habit of sleepwalking,
Not of my knowledge, doctor, And if I had been stolen,
my wife would.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Have told me about her wife. Where do you live,
miss Humbrey? We have a flat hair about the theater.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
And mister Humprys, you save it on pree separate occasions.
On morning, in the morning you were found a blood
stained razor and mudcovered boots.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Can you show us this proof? No, no, I can't.
I was also frightened that my wife.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
Would see that I cleaned.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Them before she had the opportunity of finding them.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
It would have been very valuable clues in the case, like.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
I couldn't risk my wife's seeing evidence like that doctor,
she'd know the truth.
Speaker 5 (08:51):
But at night times, while she's asleep, some devilish, unconscious
urg has overcome me, an urge that causes me to
all the streets of London, raising in hand looking for
a vict of mister Holmes.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
He's got to help me.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
I'm certain that it had been committing murder.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
And if you don't help me, I'll come on and.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
On, mister humps beat and I'm to pick the case.
It says very unique assignment.
Speaker 6 (09:14):
In effect, I'm being engaged by a possible murderer to
prove him guilty.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
Well, mister elmsdding through all the records we have here
at Scotland, you're in Gregson.
Speaker 10 (09:34):
The last two months we haven't had one case of
an unsolved killing with a race.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Any mysterious disappearances and sect.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Compressure our doctor.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
There's never a day that passes with that one until them.
Here's a list of mister Elms.
Speaker 6 (09:45):
If it's in the use to you, thanks, come onto morning.
We can go back to the theater and set our
friend's mind with it's time. Much obliged to grets to
be a service.
Speaker 7 (10:01):
Examined the homicide.
Speaker 6 (10:02):
Records at scotton Yard after leaving you last night with countries.
There have been no unsolved razor murders in London in
the past fortnight, and therefore I.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Think you may rest easy on that scholar, But it
proves nothing.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Remember that in the place we need todds victims, I
never found.
Speaker 6 (10:16):
Highest thanks to this singularly horrible ingenuity, I supposing of them.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
But this is real life, mister Hunter. Then how do
you account for the bloody racers and the muddy booths?
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Well, now are you sure they are in your imaginations?
You admit that your wife would never seen them. The
whole thing could be or till we say an overdose
of the talk. I admit that.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
I'm suffering from a surfait of that.
Speaker 7 (10:39):
And when I dropped the play from your repertoire.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
And manager Derek Kinsey won't let me be's moneymaker. He's
always got a keen height of business. Mister Holmes, I
can see that you still don't believe my story, So
I have saved some evidence for your evidence that I've
found this morning. Look at these now, what did you say?
I still think it's my imaginationy.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Gotter do ten razor and boots covered with mud.
Speaker 7 (11:03):
Splendid.
Speaker 6 (11:04):
At last, some real clues to work out can be
so calm, homes It happened again last night?
Speaker 9 (11:10):
Do you realize that I'm a murderer.
Speaker 3 (11:12):

Couldn't we talk on the stage?
Speaker 7 (12:19):

Speaker 8 (12:25):
Very well, don't come in, Holmes Man introduced Senor Vanilli
on musical Director, will.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Be the great art to meet the so great senior homes.

many times I speak to myself it's nipty.
Speaker 6 (12:43):
I'll kind of anne if you don't mind, I wish
to speak to missus Humphreys alone.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Oh I quite understand. Excuse me, senor?
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Are you mister Holmes?
Speaker 8 (12:55):
I'm really awfully there of this opportunity to talk to
you show me truthfully, please.
Speaker 6 (12:59):
What you're opinion of My husband hasn't formed the definite
opinion yet, except that it's possible that he's the victim
of abroad. I just wanted to ask you a couple
of questions, if you don't mind. Has your husband ever
shown evidence of being a sleepwalker?
Speaker 7 (13:16):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
No, never, I see. Are you a light sleeper?
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Yes? I am exceptionally sir.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Hi, I'm just curious.
Speaker 8 (13:25):
You're being very mysterious, mister.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Can't you tell even me what's going on?
Speaker 6 (13:29):
I find your husband the answer to that question before
tonight's performance.
Speaker 7 (13:32):
I'm afraid I can't pay anymore until then.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
And now, may I ask the question?
Speaker 7 (13:38):
Certainly? No, I won't promise to answer it.
Speaker 8 (13:40):
You said just now that my husband might be the
victim of a fraud.
Speaker 6 (13:44):
What did you mean again, offense? You must wait for
the specific answer to that question. However, there's another fraud
being practiced on in that I can speak.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Of now, the gorod that you are indulging in, missus hunters,
what do you mean? Of course, this particular thoud is
none of my business.
Speaker 6 (14:00):
But when I almost boss my way in your addressing
room and find your musical director a country of rice's
powder around one children suggestions of rules on his cheek.
It doesn't take a great deal of intelligence to deduce
that your husband is being deceived.
Speaker 7 (14:16):
Get on exctly what I propose doing?
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Goodat you, madam, no doubt I shall see you later on.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
Well, I almost What does the microscope tell you about
the mud on the boots and the blood stains on
the razor on.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
A bank on the meadow, Jack, it's been the common
type that's found in most parts of London.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
And blood I'm examining that now there's.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Page of cases of what I remember home. Here you
are trying to prove a man in a c when
he insists with guilty Watson, here's the answer.
Speaker 6 (14:56):
This is definitely not human blood. It's probably the king
now a swing tood mad. This would hardly drive its
victim to kill gods. Therefore, it's obvious that my companies
is the victim of a devilish plot.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
And he's not a murderer.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
No, come on, old hello, and still to care for
at once and give him the good views.
Speaker 7 (15:25):
Of the answer, because a ten his blessing them. I'm
buck again. Come on, what and let's go in.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Oh look, look, he's something of his lessing table.
Speaker 1 (15:38):

Speaker 7 (15:39):
Yeah, give me a hand with him?
Speaker 3 (15:41):
Are too late? His folk's been cut.
Speaker 6 (15:48):
I promised him a solution to his troubles before the
night was over. Little did I think that the solution
would be death.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
We'll hear the.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Rest of doctor Watson's story in just a second. So
I'm going to ask you if you're one of.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Those people who just each to live, or whether you
really enjoy good food. If you love good eating, you've
just got to know about Petree wine. Petree wine makes
good food taste wonderful. For instance, if you're having steak
or a roast, or any meat or meat fish, you'll
love it served with Petrie California Burden. Petrick Burgundy is
the last word and delicious red wine with chicken or fish,
(16:33):
you can't beat the delicate Petrie California so Turned a
really extraordinary white one. Just to make sure you don't
miss either Petrie wine, don't buy one, buy two.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Buy both Petrie Burgundy and Petrie So Turned. They're both
swelled because they're both Petrick. Well, doctor Watson, what happened next?
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Don't pick up the story executor where I left of

The Flash throats to the active managers stop accusing.
Speaker 6 (17:06):
No, yes, I'm missing the solution to his doubles before
Tonight looks over a little that I think that solution would.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
Be just worry over his supposed madness.

Speaker 3 (17:22):
Look at the razor cuffs in his hand.

The place said by the murder or a model had
a chance to set in any case.
Speaker 7 (17:27):
Scrutinized the wound.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
That look as if it had been done by the
hand of a suicide.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
I don't see why not.
Speaker 6 (17:34):
The depth of the wound is even that as a
suicide cut all the waivers towards the end. Oh, this
is murder, Buttoner, and I think I know who did it.
I have lit clever and stands their track. What kind
of I'm time to tell you? Now every moment comes
off as the Scotland Guard and get Inspector Gregson bringing
back as fast as you can and Watson. Yeah, they'll
absolutely no one except Gregson of my company's death and
(17:57):

That his problems are solve it's the performance of the player.
Any worry about that old job. I'll forgive the stuck

Why does mister Elms always have to be so bloomy mysterious?
Why can't he just say who the murderer is and
take us.

Then yet I can't answer that question. Come on, you've

Speaker 3 (22:14):
Cut it taken into the business man, your calm, Gregson,
know you succeeded in killing press, but you won't tell
me Mag's look out for that brace.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
I hear you.
Speaker 7 (22:28):
Very neat, Gregson.
Speaker 6 (22:29):
You are right home perfectly. Thanks so chapter. I'm a
little tired, Gregson, my dear fellow, will you take over
from here? I think I've had enough melo drama for
one day. Ah, how person Watson is the deck of
(22:51):
take us weep again? Aracting farm, my dressing gown and
your company combined to make a soothing ending were somewhat
violent day usual gay films.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
I still didn't entirely understand it. The original part, of course,
was to try and drive my company is mad and
making him think of your murderer. That accounts for the
boots and the bloodstained.
Speaker 6 (23:10):
Razor precisely, my dear fellow, and the killer, having conditioned
his victim by this trickery, then murdered him, trying to
make it appear the suicide.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
Now who had a votive?
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Three people Humphreys, a lover, signor Vanella, and Derek Lindsay.
Speaker 7 (23:22):
I must say wife, and so did I for a while,
And yet it was illogical. She knew, and we may
therefore presume that her love.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
And knew, and that I was suspicious of her, And
she must have known that you promised her husband a
solution to his trouble before that I was out. It
seems highly improbable that she or Senior Vanilla would have
faked this suicide at that point, right.
Speaker 7 (23:41):
Right, my Dearveellant.
Speaker 6 (23:42):
So I investigated Derek Lindsay's affairs, and I found that
what Compris had referred to as the kindly act of
friend in helping him back under his feet was in
reality the mortgaging of his entire the optical effects then
he stood to inherit the theare on Humphrey's death.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
Therefore, I was convinced that he was the killer.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
After he had murdered him, he saw that he thought
to be my comforts on the stage.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
Ah, that's why I was slow and stupid, old Chad.
I couldn't imagine what motive gave the cold clear nerve to.
Speaker 6 (24:11):
Suppress all reactions when he saw his supposed victim revived
on the stage.
Speaker 7 (24:15):
Only at that moment did.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
I realize what was the motive that made him hold
his hand.
Speaker 6 (24:20):
The characteristic that ruled his life. Watson Avarice a morbid
love of money. You see, I could detect me during
the performance. You'd have had to refund the money to
the audience. He has read conquered all other patterns that
made him waiting for the performance was finish before he
attempted my life.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
You know how the case is solved. I'll tell you
something in confidence. At the end of the play tonight,
I was afraid that you made a mistake that up
on the case. Uh, Gregson too.
Speaker 7 (24:48):
And I Watson will tell you something in confident.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
There were three of us that felt the same way.
Speaker 6 (24:56):
Being modest, I assure you one, my dear Jeff, in fact,
in the future, if it should strike you that I
am more well, getting a little over confident of my powers,
or perhaps a getting less pains to a face than
it deserves, kindly whisper sweet, will you, I shall be
infinitely obliged to you.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
After that was a swell story and a pretty narrow
escape for home.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
He said, almost solve the case too late, unfortunate ended well.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
The thing that sticks in my mind is the fact
that this is one of the very replications when Holmes
almost made a serious mistake.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
We all make take the time, don't we A till
I said, we we all make mistakes the time. I suppose,
so you mean to turn down and tell me that
you never make me think.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Well, not when it comes choosing a wine, I don't
because I always choose Petrick. Again, it could be, but honestly, doctor,
when you choose a Petrie wine, you know it's a
good wine because good wine is the only kind of
wine the Petrie family makes. And it's easy to understand
why when you realize that ever since they started the
(26:19):
Petrie business way back in the eighteen hundreds, the Petrie
family has handed on down from father to son, from
father to son to highly developed fine art of wine.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Man.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Yes, the Petrie family has been making wine for generation.
That's why, no matter what type can you prefer for
any a case, you can't go wrong with a Petree
wine because Petrie took time to bring you good wine.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Well, doctor Watson, do you care to give us a
clue about next week?
Speaker 7 (26:49):
Your lock on?
Speaker 3 (26:50):
See you next week? It's about next week now, Yes,
I'm going to tell you a colorful story that took
place in the Parisian circus in eighteen hundred and ninety concerns.
This person needs the lady bareback Rider and the same death.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Fuck fus warming boy, I can't miss that one.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
Done good? Well, Now, before you go, I want to
say something to all our friends.
Speaker 13 (27:16):
I want you just to think for a minute, think
of how terrible tears to see, help us little children
spitten infantile paralysis, and then realize that infantile paralysis can
be beaten.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
It can be beaten very many cases. And your money,
your dimes, can do it. Join the March of Dimes.

To doctor Watson tell us another exciting adventure he shared

wine that can make waiting for dinner a pleasure. The

(00:40):
Petrie Sherfy.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Just look at it.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
It's clear as crystal and a wonderful, deep ambered colored.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
One sure sign of a good Sherriff.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
And if you need further proof of just how good
Petrie sherry really is, tasty what wine at Petrie Sherry
has a flavor that you know comes right from the
heart of the great And if you like your sherry
dry rather than sweet, you really like Petree Pale Pry show.
There's no doubt about it. Petrie Sherry is one of
the most delicious before dinner wines in this swell country
(01:10):
of ours. Oh, and say, when you serve Petri sherry,
serve it proudly because those letters p E t R
I on the bottle, so the proudest name in the
history of American wine. And now I'm sure our good
(01:32):
friend doctor Watson's waiting for us. Let's go and job
there you are, mister good evening doctor, all alone tonight?
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Huh, yes, my boy, you can call a man alone
when he petishes, pipe his books and the good port
his elbow.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Take off and join the Thanks doctor, help us up
to the pot.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
There's some rather special tobacco the jar over there? Fine?
Speaker 1 (01:54):
And now doctor, are you ready to tell us tonight's
new share?
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Like cos I am, mister b and if you find
it the most unusual story. It began on a winter's
night in eighteen hundred and ninety six. Holmes and I
had gone to a fetter in the East end of
London to see a performance of a famous old English
melodrama called Sweeheit Tard The Demon Barber of Piet Street.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
It's a good, blood thirsty title.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Back Demon Barber Sstands is a only specialized in close shades.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
Gracious me, mister Bertill that almost unforgivable. He was a
murderer of voracious appetite who faced his victims in a
specially constructed barber's chair, cut their throats, and then pressed
the lever that would swing the chair over and cant
the unfortunate victim into a horrible cellar beneath his shop.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
This is only a stage play, you're talking about, doctor.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
As my story begins, we were seated in a private
box watching one of the closing scenes. Holmes was leaning
forward in his chair, following the action on the stage
with an obvious delight, while I set beside him equally
in growth. An act by the name of Mark Comphors
was playing the part of Sweeney Todd, and the one
could deny that he was playing Where are you going, Tobiah?
(03:11):
Who is the nearest magistrate Sweeney Todd to be now
to repeed me through old blood and murder? You have
pronounced chuckle into the chair with your and over and
down into the capt all ha haka.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
There whence comes this apparitions the ghost of another customer
of mine. The yawning grave whields up his fastly inmates
to prove me guilty.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Dud will have done. See he is there. He comes
to accuse me of his murder.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
Oh send me to that I that slew you believe
my uncle kill me?
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Let me believe ha.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Ha upon my saw homes act full of Mark Hamphers
is the most slid actor that I've ever seen.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Honest say, I find him chanting Watson.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
It seems to me he's really caught the flavor of
this murderous monsterpiece. After all, a restrained performance for barbersween
it's hard with the unthinkable first.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Word, I must say. His makeup seems rather overdone. No barber,
but with such enormous beard. The most impractical probably getting
the customers faces. By the way I look from the
program that Mark Hampers, as well as being the principal actor,
is also the owner of the company.
Speaker 6 (04:41):
It's the current friend towards the actor manager as.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
The help the sign on thing current.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Excuse me, that is one of you, gentlemen, mister s A.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
I was asked to give you this note.
Speaker 7 (04:53):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Who else knows that you're the home find out?
Speaker 6 (04:58):
Ah, there's no is from my comforts our actor manager
janders to Holmes, I recognize you in your box, please
some of my dressing room mark the performat. My sanity
and even the safety of London perhaps depends on your compliance.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
Of the safety of London. I wonder what on earth you.
Speaker 7 (05:19):
Mean, my dear fellow.
Speaker 6 (05:21):
We can only discover by going backstage to medium as
it is the curtains going up from the last scene
I see for a little longer. We must possess our
souls and patience, mister Sherlock Holmes, Yes, sir, my name
(05:43):
is Lindsay, Jerrick Lindsay.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
I'm the business manager. Mister hump has.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Asked me to beat through the stage door because you're busy.
Speaker 7 (05:49):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Now this is my colleague, doctor Watson. Are you doctor?
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Will you? Will you follow the sea?
Speaker 6 (05:56):
Excuse me asking mister Lindsay, but surely you must be
related to that distinguished actor of some years back, Lytton Lindsay.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
He was my father.
Speaker 7 (06:02):
Mister resemblance is a strawberry.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
It's such a heritage to Lindsay.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
You must love the He'll probably sound like heresy, but
I hate it.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
However, it's the only thing I was trained for. And
there's good money to.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
Be making it sometimes, and money is the thing I
both like and want from mister Holmes.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
I do hope you were able to help Mark Humphreys.
Speaker 7 (06:25):
He certainly needs it.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
You know what seems to be his trouble. But he'll
have to tell you that Prince so.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
But his wife and I think there's Missus Humphreys now
marry ya. This is missus Shelock Holmes and Dr Watson.
Missus Mark Humprey Holmes.
Speaker 8 (06:42):
I'm so grateful that you're going to see Mark.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
He's in such a dreadful story.
Speaker 8 (06:47):
There have been times lately when when mister Lindsey and
I have been afraid he's going out of his mind,
haven't we there?
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Indeed we have.
Speaker 6 (06:53):
We're both dreadfully and in case, I hope I can
be of service in which is his dressing.
Speaker 8 (06:57):
Home, number one next door to mine? Jeric, I think
it'll be better if mister Holmes and doctor Watson go
in alone. I'm sure Michael stetmore freely.
Speaker 7 (07:05):
We're not in the room.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
I think perhaps that is a good idea.
Speaker 7 (07:07):
This is hump Is.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
We'll see you later on.
Speaker 9 (07:09):
Come on, well, thank Heaven, you're here.
Speaker 6 (07:22):
First the door now, mister Humphers, and this is doctor
Watson Whatsney.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Yes, I know of you too. Sit down, won't you?
Speaker 4 (07:29):
Gentlemen you're wondering why I asked you to come back.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
And see me?
Speaker 4 (07:34):
Of course naturally, then well I won't beat about the
bush and waste your time.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
That comes straight to the point I'm going mad.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
I know, I know it isn't fantastic, but it's true.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
I've often heard of access beginning to live ups off
the stage they play on it. Well, it's happened to me.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
I'm turning into another Sweeny Todd, the character I'm portaying on.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
The stage suggesting, sir that you're a potential murderer.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Yes, I am.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
What reason do you have for holding that beleef reason?
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Listen to this?
Speaker 4 (08:03):
Three times in the past week, I've wakened in the
morning to find my boots covered with mud and my
razor stained with blood.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
God, I had no recollection of any untoward events during
the night.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
None have you ever predicted to the unfortunate habit of sleepwalking,
Not of my knowledge, doctor, And if I had been stolen,
my wife would.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Have told me about her wife. Where do you live,
miss Humbrey? We have a flat hair about the theater.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
And mister Humprys, you save it on pree separate occasions.
On morning, in the morning you were found a blood
stained razor and mudcovered boots.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Can you show us this proof? No, no, I can't.
I was also frightened that my wife.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
Would see that I cleaned.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Them before she had the opportunity of finding them.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
It would have been very valuable clues in the case, like.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
I couldn't risk my wife's seeing evidence like that doctor,
she'd know the truth.
Speaker 5 (08:51):
But at night times, while she's asleep, some devilish, unconscious
urg has overcome me, an urge that causes me to
all the streets of London, raising in hand looking for
a vict of mister Holmes.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
He's got to help me.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
I'm certain that it had been committing murder.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
And if you don't help me, I'll come on and.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
On, mister humps beat and I'm to pick the case.
It says very unique assignment.
Speaker 6 (09:14):
In effect, I'm being engaged by a possible murderer to
prove him guilty.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
Well, mister elmsdding through all the records we have here
at Scotland, you're in Gregson.
Speaker 10 (09:34):
The last two months we haven't had one case of
an unsolved killing with a race.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Any mysterious disappearances and sect.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Compressure our doctor.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
There's never a day that passes with that one until them.
Here's a list of mister Elms.
Speaker 6 (09:45):
If it's in the use to you, thanks, come onto morning.
We can go back to the theater and set our
friend's mind with it's time. Much obliged to grets to
be a service.
Speaker 7 (10:01):
Examined the homicide.
Speaker 6 (10:02):
Records at scotton Yard after leaving you last night with countries.
There have been no unsolved razor murders in London in
the past fortnight, and therefore I.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Think you may rest easy on that scholar, But it
proves nothing.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Remember that in the place we need todds victims, I
never found.
Speaker 6 (10:16):
Highest thanks to this singularly horrible ingenuity, I supposing of them.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
But this is real life, mister Hunter. Then how do
you account for the bloody racers and the muddy booths?
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Well, now are you sure they are in your imaginations?
You admit that your wife would never seen them. The
whole thing could be or till we say an overdose
of the talk. I admit that.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
I'm suffering from a surfait of that.
Speaker 7 (10:39):
And when I dropped the play from your repertoire.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
And manager Derek Kinsey won't let me be's moneymaker. He's
always got a keen height of business. Mister Holmes, I
can see that you still don't believe my story, So
I have saved some evidence for your evidence that I've
found this morning. Look at these now, what did you say?
I still think it's my imaginationy.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Gotter do ten razor and boots covered with mud.
Speaker 7 (11:03):
Splendid.
Speaker 6 (11:04):
At last, some real clues to work out can be
so calm, homes It happened again last night?
Speaker 9 (11:10):
Do you realize that I'm a murderer.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
I'm a menace for society.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
For Heaven's sake, locked me up before I do some more,
mister humpers, I.
Speaker 6 (11:18):
Should like to take these objects of back to the
speaker where I can perform some chemical tests.
Speaker 7 (11:22):
You have no objections, I hope objections? Heaven excellent.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
You've told no one of this fresh discovery of.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Yours, no one, not even get at Clinton. Clinton. That's
your manager, isn't it.
Speaker 9 (11:31):
Yes, the best friend I ever had kept his father
before him.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
It's the Eric who helped me back on my feet.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
So too.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Yes, two years ago when.
Speaker 4 (11:41):
I put on that disasters production of My Beth, and
i'd be today that for him.
Speaker 6 (11:45):
It lost a great deal of money on that production, sir,
nearly every penny I had. Indeed, by the way, where
is your wife?
Speaker 3 (11:50):
This?
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Hump Here's an addressing in next door with the mess day.
I'd like a word with her.
Speaker 7 (11:56):
Wat's my chapter? I wait here for me? You know
I want you a moment, start Holmes.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
You want to talk to me, mister Holmes for a moment.
Speaker 7 (12:15):
May I come in?
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Missus Humpreys.
Speaker 8 (12:17):
Couldn't we talk on the stage?
Speaker 7 (12:19):
You tempt me.
Speaker 6 (12:19):
I prefer to come into your dressing room if you
don't mind, But I have to say it's confidential.
Speaker 8 (12:25):
Very well, don't come in, Holmes Man introduced Senor Vanilli
on musical Director, will.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Be the great art to meet the so great senior homes.
I have so lived you, Oh often I have enpergy
many times I speak to myself it's nipty.
Speaker 6 (12:43):
I'll kind of anne if you don't mind, I wish
to speak to missus Humphreys alone.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Oh I quite understand. Excuse me, senor?
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Are you mister Holmes?
Speaker 8 (12:55):
I'm really awfully there of this opportunity to talk to
you show me truthfully, please.
Speaker 6 (12:59):
What you're opinion of My husband hasn't formed the definite
opinion yet, except that it's possible that he's the victim
of abroad. I just wanted to ask you a couple
of questions, if you don't mind. Has your husband ever
shown evidence of being a sleepwalker?
Speaker 7 (13:16):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
No, never, I see. Are you a light sleeper?
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Yes? I am exceptionally sir.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Hi, I'm just curious.
Speaker 8 (13:25):
You're being very mysterious, mister.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Can't you tell even me what's going on?
Speaker 6 (13:29):
I find your husband the answer to that question before
tonight's performance.
Speaker 7 (13:32):
I'm afraid I can't pay anymore until then.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
And now, may I ask the question?
Speaker 7 (13:38):
Certainly? No, I won't promise to answer it.
Speaker 8 (13:40):
You said just now that my husband might be the
victim of a fraud.
Speaker 6 (13:44):
What did you mean again, offense? You must wait for
the specific answer to that question. However, there's another fraud
being practiced on in that I can speak.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Of now, the gorod that you are indulging in, missus hunters,
what do you mean? Of course, this particular thoud is
none of my business.
Speaker 6 (14:00):
But when I almost boss my way in your addressing
room and find your musical director a country of rice's
powder around one children suggestions of rules on his cheek.
It doesn't take a great deal of intelligence to deduce
that your husband is being deceived.
Speaker 7 (14:16):
Get on exctly what I propose doing?
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Goodat you, madam, no doubt I shall see you later on.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
Well, I almost What does the microscope tell you about
the mud on the boots and the blood stains on
the razor on.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
A bank on the meadow, Jack, it's been the common
type that's found in most parts of London.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
And blood I'm examining that now there's.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Page of cases of what I remember home. Here you
are trying to prove a man in a c when
he insists with guilty Watson, here's the answer.
Speaker 6 (14:56):
This is definitely not human blood. It's probably the king
now a swing tood mad. This would hardly drive its
victim to kill gods. Therefore, it's obvious that my companies
is the victim of a devilish plot.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
And he's not a murderer.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
No, come on, old hello, and still to care for
at once and give him the good views.
Speaker 7 (15:25):
Of the answer, because a ten his blessing them. I'm
buck again. Come on, what and let's go in.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Oh look, look, he's something of his lessing table.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
I hope I'm not too late.
Speaker 7 (15:39):
Yeah, give me a hand with him?
Speaker 3 (15:41):
Are too late? His folk's been cut.
Speaker 6 (15:48):
I promised him a solution to his troubles before the
night was over. Little did I think that the solution
would be death.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
We'll hear the.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Rest of doctor Watson's story in just a second. So
I'm going to ask you if you're one of.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Those people who just each to live, or whether you
really enjoy good food. If you love good eating, you've
just got to know about Petree wine. Petree wine makes
good food taste wonderful. For instance, if you're having steak
or a roast, or any meat or meat fish, you'll
love it served with Petrie California Burden. Petrick Burgundy is
the last word and delicious red wine with chicken or fish,
(16:33):
you can't beat the delicate Petrie California so Turned a
really extraordinary white one. Just to make sure you don't
miss either Petrie wine, don't buy one, buy two.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Buy both Petrie Burgundy and Petrie So Turned. They're both
swelled because they're both Petrick. Well, doctor Watson, what happened next?
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Don't pick up the story executor where I left of
Tombs and I were standing mock Humport's looking with horror.
The Flash throats to the active managers stop accusing.
Speaker 6 (17:06):
No, yes, I'm missing the solution to his doubles before
Tonight looks over a little that I think that solution would.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
Be just worry over his supposed madness.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Is rabbits, it's murder.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
Look at the razor cuffs in his hand.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
The place said by the murder or a model had
a chance to set in any case.
Speaker 7 (17:27):
Scrutinized the wound.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
That look as if it had been done by the
hand of a suicide.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
I don't see why not.
Speaker 6 (17:34):
The depth of the wound is even that as a
suicide cut all the waivers towards the end. Oh, this
is murder, Buttoner, and I think I know who did it.
I have lit clever and stands their track. What kind
of I'm time to tell you? Now every moment comes
off as the Scotland Guard and get Inspector Gregson bringing
back as fast as you can and Watson. Yeah, they'll

(17:57):
say that he's still alive well and.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
That his problems are solve it's the performance of the player.
Any worry about that old job. I'll forgive the stuck
and Jack.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
I'm sorry it took so long to find me, Doctor Watson.
I was having anothercasion. Inspect their per promance if there
is one that's been nearly over there? Now is the
stage doors? Yeah, here we are. You can't go around

let's just stand here in the winds.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
Possible. There's my comforts on the stage.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
That sim in the smoke cun I don't believe in
ghost doctor.
Speaker 12 (18:49):
Great heavens it it's homes.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
You remind you why you put him down there? And
heavy of it? Do you reve him comes amazing disguise.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
I never recognized him both here.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
What are you up to?
Speaker 6 (19:26):
Surely that's a talent. I disguise myself as a dead
man helping across the murderer's hands. You'll running a terrible
riskmast out of my profession wreage.
Speaker 7 (19:33):
Yeah, come sing van musical director.
Speaker 6 (19:37):
I had to leave the awkward to come and congratulate
you never have you given.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
A final performance, provis or provis But he's true. You
findly seem the same person your performance. He is incomparable.
Keep it up, man, keep it up. I think he's
spotted you home.
Speaker 4 (19:58):
Yes, sir, I didn't like his look because he says that, well,
whoever it is, they've got to put their hands soon
gets going up.
Speaker 7 (20:03):
In the last scene, you calize open and suspect everyone.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
Look, my lord, find your signe let your love the state?
What do I not bouded? But he's not muching here,
lord gosh no, but to see you steal the figure?
Speaker 1 (20:37):
Sit fair, I get it, cometer this excuse this for
then my guilt.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
But then it did rise from their tentlements to prove
Sweeney Toddler by George Running act reader made doctor for
the actor is I know how he remembers the lines though,
(21:05):
even if he has to play half a dozen times
till he comes down, I'll home slender.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
But he didn't work. But it didn't work, unbounded murderous
still hasn't tipped his hand.
Speaker 7 (21:16):
Have I underestimated him?
Speaker 10 (21:17):
Looks as if you are, sir, And if you don't
mind my taylf, I think wou'd have been a lot
wiser to let me handle the case as soon as
you found his.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Body instead of going in for all this dressing up
stuff over.
Speaker 6 (21:27):
Of course, now I see it only one person who
could have killed my country's full home.
Speaker 7 (21:33):
Who was I saying? I'll show you and then Humphy's
dressing room now.
Speaker 6 (21:36):
Alone, give me a few moments, start and then follow me.
I'll fight that the tear shot doctor Watson.
Speaker 10 (21:41):
Why does mister Elms always have to be so bloomy mysterious?
Why can't he just say who the murderer is and
take us.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
To her people home? On a great many cases, Gregson?
Then yet I can't answer that question. Come on, you've
got to be enough to start. Now, let's follow him.
Speaker 10 (21:55):
I'm gonna follow mister Arms and have doctor. And yet
there are times when I get so angry with him
of Risky's life.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Right that you know, mister Holmes, he will never change.
Speaker 10 (22:03):
If he don't, one of these days, he's going to
wake up and find himself ditched.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Cut it taken into the business man, your calm, Gregson,
know you succeeded in killing press, but you won't tell
me Mag's look out for that brace.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
I hear you.
Speaker 7 (22:28):
Very neat, Gregson.
Speaker 6 (22:29):
You are right home perfectly. Thanks so chapter. I'm a
little tired, Gregson, my dear fellow, will you take over
from here? I think I've had enough melo drama for
one day. Ah, how person Watson is the deck of
(22:51):
take us weep again? Aracting farm, my dressing gown and
your company combined to make a soothing ending were somewhat
violent day usual gay films.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
I still didn't entirely understand it. The original part, of course,
was to try and drive my company is mad and
making him think of your murderer. That accounts for the
boots and the bloodstained.
Speaker 6 (23:10):
Razor precisely, my dear fellow, and the killer, having conditioned
his victim by this trickery, then murdered him, trying to
make it appear the suicide.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
Now who had a votive?
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Three people Humphreys, a lover, signor Vanella, and Derek Lindsay.
Speaker 7 (23:22):
I must say wife, and so did I for a while,
And yet it was illogical. She knew, and we may
therefore presume that her love.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
And knew, and that I was suspicious of her, And
she must have known that you promised her husband a
solution to his trouble before that I was out. It
seems highly improbable that she or Senior Vanilla would have
faked this suicide at that point, right.
Speaker 7 (23:41):
Right, my Dearveellant.
Speaker 6 (23:42):
So I investigated Derek Lindsay's affairs, and I found that
what Compris had referred to as the kindly act of
friend in helping him back under his feet was in
reality the mortgaging of his entire the optical effects then
he stood to inherit the theare on Humphrey's death.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
Therefore, I was convinced that he was the killer.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
After he had murdered him, he saw that he thought
to be my comforts on the stage.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
Ah, that's why I was slow and stupid, old Chad.
I couldn't imagine what motive gave the cold clear nerve to.
Speaker 6 (24:11):
Suppress all reactions when he saw his supposed victim revived
on the stage.
Speaker 7 (24:15):
Only at that moment did.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
I realize what was the motive that made him hold
his hand.
Speaker 6 (24:20):
The characteristic that ruled his life. Watson Avarice a morbid
love of money. You see, I could detect me during
the performance. You'd have had to refund the money to
the audience. He has read conquered all other patterns that
made him waiting for the performance was finish before he
attempted my life.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
You know how the case is solved. I'll tell you
something in confidence. At the end of the play tonight,
I was afraid that you made a mistake that up
on the case. Uh, Gregson too.
Speaker 7 (24:48):
And I Watson will tell you something in confident.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
There were three of us that felt the same way.
Speaker 6 (24:56):
Being modest, I assure you one, my dear Jeff, in fact,
in the future, if it should strike you that I
am more well, getting a little over confident of my powers,
or perhaps a getting less pains to a face than
it deserves, kindly whisper sweet, will you, I shall be
infinitely obliged to you.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
After that was a swell story and a pretty narrow
escape for home.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
He said, almost solve the case too late, unfortunate ended well.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
The thing that sticks in my mind is the fact
that this is one of the very replications when Holmes
almost made a serious mistake.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
We all make take the time, don't we A till
I said, we we all make mistakes the time. I suppose,
so you mean to turn down and tell me that
you never make me think.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Well, not when it comes choosing a wine, I don't
because I always choose Petrick. Again, it could be, but honestly, doctor,
when you choose a Petrie wine, you know it's a
good wine because good wine is the only kind of
wine the Petrie family makes. And it's easy to understand
why when you realize that ever since they started the
(26:19):
Petrie business way back in the eighteen hundreds, the Petrie
family has handed on down from father to son, from
father to son to highly developed fine art of wine.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Man.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Yes, the Petrie family has been making wine for generation.
That's why, no matter what type can you prefer for
any a case, you can't go wrong with a Petree
wine because Petrie took time to bring you good wine.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Well, doctor Watson, do you care to give us a
clue about next week?
Speaker 7 (26:49):
Your lock on?
Speaker 3 (26:50):
See you next week? It's about next week now, Yes,
I'm going to tell you a colorful story that took
place in the Parisian circus in eighteen hundred and ninety concerns.
This person needs the lady bareback Rider and the same death.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Fuck fus warming boy, I can't miss that one.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
Done good? Well, Now, before you go, I want to
say something to all our friends.
Speaker 13 (27:16):
I want you just to think for a minute, think
of how terrible tears to see, help us little children
spitten infantile paralysis, and then realize that infantile paralysis can
be beaten.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
It can be beaten very many cases. And your money,
your dimes, can do it. Join the March of Dimes.
Send your dimes to your local Marsive Times headquarters. Let's
help little children walk, help them live.
