Speaker 2 (01:01):
It was on the pain that I first met. The
tree was all over and gun. I was on my
way back to San Francisco. It's not that I cared
for much just then where I was going. At least
I had friends in San Francis. Go.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
He'll be easier there, as far as I had to
shot up from scratch again.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Anyway. She was one of those friendly.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
Trusting, wide eyed girls who give you their.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Love history and off the head. Now. She was happy.
She wanted to talk. She was a bride. My dad
was a good dinner. Do you think I'll ever be
able to cook a meal like that? You? You can't
do better than that?
Speaker 4 (01:37):
And the balls Gods for you, young lady, mister has
and I got it with a wonderful dinner, and thank
you forget you.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
I think I'll step into the ladies lounge here and
do a little printing. I always feel so messy, I
mean trade, okay, I want to come with me, Karen
or right? Is well? Horrow what he says? I'm silly,
but I can't help being nervous and nervous. I'm not
meeting his people, his brother and his mother, dad is
(02:06):
his dad is dead. They're terribly wealthy. Idea, I suppose
I'm a snub. That shouldn't make any different, should it.
I'm just nice, So with that lot, you don't you worry?
But sometimes I'm afraid they'll expect that nothing less than
a raving beauty is good enough for their Hugh And
I know I'm not dead. Don't they even know what
you look like? I'm not even a picture. Isn't that awful?
(02:28):
But you see, we were married in Europe. We were
both working for i'm la, and then we had a
chance to get a boat back home the next day,
and always had time to do is send them a table.
And now I care to death. There's your own family
live in California. I don't have any family. Or I'm fine.
Oh that's all right. It was a long time ago.
(02:48):
Would you mind holding my ring while I washed? And
I have such a horror of losing it. It slipped
down a drain terrce once and they had to take
the whole pipe off to get it. Not. Oh, it's
a lovely isn't it. I told you we shouldn't spend
so much money on a ring, But now how men
are sometimes see what it says on the inside hue
in the tree. That's nice, sind act. If you want
(03:12):
isn't supposed to be bad luck? I mean to take
your ring off, bad map. I couldn't have any bad luck.
Nice rock. At first, it just changes a little things. Wire, white,
(03:39):
seeing white.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Pushing things around me, white uniform, bending over you, white, covering.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
It on the bench, my hands on your l and watching.
And then I saw her rings on the third single
of my left hand. I got it up before my eyes.
Things began to come back there. Well are you feeling now?
How long have I been here? Almost two days? What
(04:08):
happened to to who? There was another girl? I was
talking to another girl? And then is she all right?
Did you know her very well? Just on the train?
Is she all right?
Speaker 1 (04:20):
No?
Speaker 2 (04:21):
She's dead? Yes? Oh? Is there anyone else you want
to ask about? What happened to to him? Yes? You're
going to have to be a very brave girl, can
you be? Yes? Your husband wasn't saved either? Are for
(04:50):
a long while? I hadn't decided yet. I was just
saying that she had told me, echoing around in my head,
they're terribly well, never see me, not even in the picture,
hammy of my own terribly, why?
Speaker 5 (05:13):
Terribly Why?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
The next afternoon the nurse came in with a big
bunch of flowers. Well, we're looking a lot better today.
I feel dead. Those come from? Do you think you
feel well enough to have visitors? Visitors? Of course you
don't have to cool, can't you guess? Honey? Oh? But
but I don't think that I'm not. Honey. It'll do
(05:36):
you a world is good. I'm frightened, frightened, but I've
never seen them before?
Speaker 6 (05:42):
You haven't, I declare, don't you worry? One little bit, honey.
They're just the nicest boat you would ever meet anywhere.
I know they think an awful lot of you, do
they I'll bring them in. This is you can come
in now, only just a minute.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Yes, the trees. I'm Hugh's mother. How do you do?
And this is my other son's bill. Hello, Hello, my dear.
You know we can overstay a minute, but I well,
I don't want to talk about anything that's painful to you.
(06:20):
It's all right.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
I just want you to know that your loss, our loss.
It's something I hope we can overcome together.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
We both feel that. Patrese, thank you now as soon
as your will.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
In a few days, we're going to take you home
with us to Caulfield, and we want you to know
that our home will be your home always.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Oh, I don't now you.
Speaker 7 (06:46):
Let us do the planning for a while for trees.
I'm afraid you're not in very good shape purchase yet
the trees.
Speaker 5 (06:51):
From everything we both know of Hughes, we know we
want it that way, don't free. It's hard to lose,
the Sun says. It was hard for you to lose
your mother. I know, but it'll be easier now now
that I have a daughter, and you have a mother.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
You see Hi, I don't know what to say. Missus
has not missus has a dear. From now on, it's mother,
you see I come on, my dear, say it? Yes? Mother?
(07:41):
What would you have done?
Speaker 4 (07:43):
Don't judge me unless you worked in a hash house
from behind the counter of a third rate department, door
and scripts and sob to keep up a parent. Don't
judge me unless you've been through that suddenly had a.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Chance to trace it all into security and boss at all.
Just hear somebody somewhere made a little mistake. You're the
daughter in law of a wealthy family in California. All
you have to do is keep your mouth and not Tony,
what were you a son? I kept my mouth shut.
(08:18):
And there were a clothes in a car, and a
lovely room of my own, and the mother, and there
was my brother in law.
Speaker 8 (08:28):
My brother in law a treat because I wasn't Hell
and George so anymore.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I wasn't the poor but dragon little.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
Girl who'd been divorced too months ago buy a rough
in reach of a husband.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I was a treatious for two months, and then everything
seemed to happen at once and just one day today
began at breakfast this.
Speaker 7 (08:53):
Morning, coffee bill, your thanks a minute?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
You knew, Patrice, I was in Paris one as a
girl years ago. Tell me has a changed much since
those days changed?
Speaker 7 (09:05):
How can she answer that?
Speaker 2 (09:06):
Mother?
Speaker 7 (09:06):
He wasn't there when you were that, because you know,
if it's different than it was there.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
You knew what I mean. Don't be so techtical. Why, yes, yes,
it has changed. I suppose you and you were married there,
don't you? No, mother, London?
Speaker 7 (09:20):
Don't you remember the letter with some London letterhead?
Speaker 2 (09:23):
You mean the cable? No, dear, I remember the cable.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
Of course, I mean the letter, and I'm positive it
had a Paris postmark, since I had it right up
there from.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Where I can show you. Well, you hardly have to
do that.
Speaker 7 (09:35):
The tree certainly knows where she was married, all right.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Smarty, will see which was it? The tree? London or Paris?
It was London. Well, I could have spawned so we
could look right away from Paris. She said. I think
what happened was a cure.
Speaker 8 (09:50):
Up a letter in London, and but he didn't get
a chance to knee it until we got to Paris.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
Will that probably was it funny. I don't remember anything
about London.
Speaker 7 (09:59):
Though, But missus head of the morning Mail, Oh.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Thank you, so you just put it right down here,
Bill and circulars.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
So he has run for you, Bill Red, I get
but the tree there's rue for you for me, Mum
huh as a local posma too. I don't wonder who
it could be from what I don't.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Know the tree? Where are you going? I just should
know that I think I let the bath road. A
running back for the letter was it was unsigned. All
its head was I know who you are. But in
(10:52):
the afternoon that I got the hours in between were
almost worse than anything else in the camera, wondering who
it was, who knew who I was? Just my luck
that I was downstairs when it rests.
Speaker 9 (11:06):
Hello, I'd like to speak to missus Hazzard, please the
younger missus Hazzard.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Miss is she? Oh? Hello? Hell? It to Steve. Steve.
Speaker 7 (11:18):
Well, I'm glad at least that you remember me. I
was afraid that under the circumstances you might have forgotten.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
What do you want? I want to see you? You
know that's happy?
Speaker 7 (11:26):
Oh, but I must I want to hear all about it.
Speaker 9 (11:28):
The train recogivery.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
It can't be done now, Helen.
Speaker 9 (11:31):
I simply won't take no for an answer. You'll drive
out of town along the Lake Road, and about five
miles out on the left you'll see a.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
Little bungalow with the green coop standing out in front
of it. I'll be waiting, Look, Steve, Helen, for your
own good I think you'd betterr come.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
In fact, I know you'd betterr come. I went.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Unchanged, a little more run down at the heel, a
little more cynical and sargonic than usual, perhaps, But he
hadn't changed.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Oh no, he hadn't changed. And I heard about the
train wreck. It was comparatively simple.
Speaker 7 (12:13):
Oh, by the way I identified your body, you owe
me something for that.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
At least owe you something? Well, don't you think? So?
What are you doing?
Speaker 7 (12:23):
Mental arithmetic?
Speaker 2 (12:24):
I'm wondering how I could have ever married a man
who stooped a blackmail.
Speaker 9 (12:28):
Oh, come, come, Helen, let's not be emotional about this.
Speaker 7 (12:32):
You have a very nice thing here. I don't have
a thing. They have the money, but you do have
your own bank account, don't you.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
How much do you want? I'm going to be very
fair with you, Helen.
Speaker 7 (12:43):
The truth is I need just enough for a little
business venture in Mexico?
Speaker 2 (12:48):
How much? Only one thousand dollars?
Speaker 7 (12:50):
If you have neglected to bring your checkbook with you,
I have one here, a check I said I was
going to be fair. Don't just see, Helen.
Speaker 9 (12:58):
When the check goes through the bank and comes back
you with my signature on it, you will have evidence
against me.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
I think you call it the blackmail? Do you know
another name for it?
Speaker 9 (13:08):
I think you're being a little unkind, considering that when
you get your check back, you'll have permanent insurance.
Speaker 7 (13:13):
Against my asking you for any more.
Speaker 9 (13:16):
Out here.
Speaker 7 (13:17):
Make the check out to me, Helen, not cash. And
the name is Stephen Jordson. If you remember, I remember.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Thank you, dear.
Speaker 9 (13:27):
I have an idea that I shall make a very
handsome proper on this little investment.
Speaker 7 (13:31):
I hope you do, and when I do, Darling, I
promised that you will be the first to know.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
That should have been enough for one day. But I
might have known that it couldn't be. I might have
known if I stopped to think that I was only
getting in deeper and deeper. There was a strange car
in front of the house.
Speaker 7 (13:55):
When I got there.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
I tried to come in quietly to fear someone would
ask for The family was in the library and they
couldn't help. But see me on the tree? Yes, mother,
will you be in a minute? Lie here? Tree? Do
you know mister Winter? I don't believe I do. Miss
Winter is our attorney. How do you do? You're in
the party? Yes? Here, we want you to hear this.
It's concerned.
Speaker 7 (14:16):
Well, I think I've just about turned my part.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
The rest of it is up to you two.
Speaker 7 (14:20):
Now shall I sign?
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Now? Well, I think you better tell the Trees first.
Don't you think she ought to know?
Speaker 7 (14:26):
I'll tell her if you like. That's I can't explain
it a little easier. You see, missus Hazard is changing
her will.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Oh will. Yes.
Speaker 10 (14:36):
Previously her estate had been equally divided between her two sons,
But now since there is only one remaining heir, that
is Bill, she's adding a cardoso, providing that one half
of her estate shall now go to You.
Speaker 7 (14:49):
Don't look that way about her. She's not doing anybody
out of anything for Trees. I have the business Dad.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Left for me.
Speaker 6 (14:55):
No, now you mustn't do it with Bill the own suggestion,
My dear, I don't want any part of it, don't
you see?
Speaker 2 (15:01):
She feels that way on account of shoes.
Speaker 7 (15:05):
You better go after And all right, Patrice, wait a minute,
listen to me, Patrice, was in the world.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
You and mother have been so wonderful to me? Oh
why you know one of the family now I don't
deserve But that's all. Listen to, Tries.
Speaker 7 (15:23):
It's something I want to tell you, very seriously. I'll
admit that the first I wondered if you're coming to us,
if the money had anything to do with it. I
wondered about one or two other little things. But now
I know because I know you, Patrice, and changing the
will won't really make any difference now because I know, no.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Wait till don't you know? Don't you still he's not yet?
This isn't the time.
Speaker 7 (15:54):
I know, it hasn't been very long, but I've got
to tell you now. I love you the priest, and
I want you to marry me. Oh, Billy, is it
as bad as all that? I know I didn't say
it right, But I see you every day, PATRICEA I'm
with you every day.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
You just have given me a few more days.
Speaker 7 (16:15):
Well then there is some hope, Tries, I don't know
the price.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Is it the best? Oh? No, I've never really been
in love. I've got to go and ask you.
Speaker 7 (16:29):
Are you afraid I'll kiss you?
Speaker 2 (16:31):
I'm afraid. I want you to see it wasn't just
the money security anymore. I'd have loved him if he'd
been apart. This was it all right? At first? I haven't.
Speaker 8 (17:00):
I wanted to go to the Aswer Country Club and
be said and asked takful questions about you.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Now I was wrong. Now it was pure escape from
the turmoil of my thoughts and the jolt and indecision,
pure escape.
Speaker 7 (17:14):
I thought, if I known you danced this well, hasn't
anybody ever told you that before?
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Not? Really? Well, then I'll continue.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
That's you're my father, most beautiful girl here?
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Am I? You know quite well? You're perfectly aware of
all this?
Speaker 7 (17:31):
And if you weren't one, look at that sagline with you.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
I'm asking so not you.
Speaker 7 (17:41):
I beg your pardon?
Speaker 2 (17:42):
You mind if I come in?
Speaker 7 (17:44):
Ohsin, mister George, ohoh, this is a very great pleasures.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
I'll see you later, right? What's doing here?
Speaker 4 (17:55):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I've been moving in quite the best circles, didn't you know?
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Dan? You shouldn't be out you went, I'm not no,
I'm not fuss.
Speaker 7 (18:02):
Is there anything that is for someone in your position?
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Leave me alone? Catch I want to talk to.
Speaker 7 (18:07):
You about it.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Yes, I guess you're right. Come on, let's go out
on the veranda.
Speaker 7 (18:14):
What I have to say won't take very long in.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Ah. Yes, I think it's much better out of here. Ah.
I see what about the second?
Speaker 10 (18:27):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Yes, indeed, it's quite the nicest check I've ever had. Attack,
I've still got it, aren't you go into house?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
I'm afraid you were thinking very clearly this afternoon, Helen.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
You remember I told you.
Speaker 7 (18:38):
But once that check passed through the bank and come
back to you.
Speaker 9 (18:40):
With my signature on it, you would be holding evidence
against me. Yes, But of course if I don't catch it,
if I just hang on to it, then I'm holding
evidence against you.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
There quite damaging evidence. See what do you want now.
Speaker 9 (18:57):
Helen, I'm afraid I'm not interested in a mere thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Then give it up to me. I'll give you more
whatever I can.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
No, no, no ella, and I have no intention of
giving this check back to you.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
But do you see this album?
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Yes, you'll notice that it's addressed to William.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Hazard at this office, so that you can't accept it.
Speaker 7 (19:13):
It contains that check that's going into the mail tonight.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
You wouldn't do that?
Speaker 9 (19:17):
Oh yes, I would unless unless what unless you take
a little drive with me that I planned for tonight.
Speaker 7 (19:22):
Oh it's not far, just to Hastings.
Speaker 9 (19:24):
But it's over the state line, and there's a.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Justice of the peace there fasts up the peace, and
he's going to make us man.
Speaker 9 (19:31):
And wife all over again, mister and missus Stephen Jordson. Gee, No,
then I'll mail a checking her.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
What Why do you have to do that?
Speaker 9 (19:43):
Missus Hazard, whom you've been calling your mother in law
can't last forever.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
And when she goes, of course you'll inherit a.
Speaker 9 (19:48):
Why she's made about two hundred thousand dollars under the
laws your husband.
Speaker 7 (19:51):
A third of that is mine And for that kind
of money, Darling, I can afford to wait?
Speaker 2 (19:56):
How could you? How could you know the bride? I
would you choose the time?
Speaker 9 (20:02):
But it must be too night, Oh, Steve, there must
be someone there isn't it's tonight or I mailed.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
The check, but late, it's got to be late.
Speaker 7 (20:16):
I see your point three o'clock all right.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Help me choose your house three o'clock and then.
Speaker 9 (20:25):
Be on time, Helen, because the United States mail is
always on time.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
Oh, there you are, for trees.
Speaker 7 (20:30):
Oh excuse me, good night, missus Hazard, I've been looking
for you.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
I wasn't too long with that.
Speaker 7 (20:36):
Oh no, you know that fellow George. No, well, I'm
glad you don't.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
He's no good. Oh.
Speaker 7 (20:44):
It seems he's a professional gambler. It wasn't sure until tonight,
but he's done some of our members out of quite
a little money, including me.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
You would you take me home? I'm terribly tired.
Speaker 7 (20:55):
Of course, of course I will thank the trees. Yes, Bill,
Have you got about what I said?
Speaker 2 (21:04):
This hate me? Yes? Well I can't give you an answer. Now.
Will it be soon? Yes? So soon. There was nothing
(21:28):
else to do. Now. I went until the house was start,
and I'm sure everyone would.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
And got the gun that I found one day in
a cupboard in the garage, and I drove out to
me to see.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Given me to worry about my being on time. I
was right there on schedule.
Speaker 9 (21:45):
Wow, Well, well, come in, come in.
Speaker 7 (21:50):
Anything you'd like to have before we start?
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Yes, i'd like to see the chip. Why? Oh, I
just want to be sure you still have it.
Speaker 7 (22:00):
So all right here, it is right to Michael Helen. Kelen,
put on the gun.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
You deserve, You deserve every bit of it. I took
the check out of his pocket and burned it there
on the fireplace. I threw the gun as far as
I put into.
Speaker 8 (22:26):
The lake, and then I took home and let myself
into the dark, quiet house.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
And although I just.
Speaker 8 (22:31):
Killed the man, I slept like an innocent child. The trees,
pick up the trees, Bill, the how is this this morning?
Speaker 7 (22:52):
I'm sorry to wake you, but they don't want to
give me a few minutes.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Bill, what's the matter.
Speaker 7 (22:57):
I've just been arrested for murder.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Murder.
Speaker 7 (23:02):
I just wanted you to know from me first of all,
and tell you I didn't do it, no matter how
bad it looks, I couldn't do it. But they know
I threatened him publicly about the money he cheated me
out of. And the bullets were the same as those
for a German masra. I got in the Far East
and people around town knew I had, so they haven't
found the gun yet. And then they found me out there.
I'd gone out to have a showdown with him. Fama
(23:22):
that delivers milk came in just after I got there. Bill,
Who georgeon Stephen Georgson.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Oh.
Speaker 7 (23:32):
All right, you have to come along out of.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Bad and Johnny. Don't worry. But you know I didn't
do it, don't you. Yes, Bill, I know you didn't
do it. That's why I've written this. It's one of
(23:56):
those things you read about in the papers. A sign.
Oh they've been terribly nice. Hire the best lawyers.

Speaker 2 (01:01):
It was on the pain that I first met. The
tree was all over and gun. I was on my
way back to San Francisco. It's not that I cared
for much just then where I was going. At least
I had friends in San Francis. Go.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
He'll be easier there, as far as I had to
shot up from scratch again.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Anyway. She was one of those friendly.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
Trusting, wide eyed girls who give you their.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Love history and off the head. Now. She was happy.
She wanted to talk. She was a bride. My dad
was a good dinner. Do you think I'll ever be
able to cook a meal like that? You? You can't
do better than that?
Speaker 4 (01:37):
And the balls Gods for you, young lady, mister has
and I got it with a wonderful dinner, and thank
you forget you.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
I think I'll step into the ladies lounge here and
do a little printing. I always feel so messy, I
mean trade, okay, I want to come with me, Karen
or right? Is well? Horrow what he says? I'm silly,
but I can't help being nervous and nervous. I'm not
meeting his people, his brother and his mother, dad is
(02:06):
his dad is dead. They're terribly wealthy. Idea, I suppose
I'm a snub. That shouldn't make any different, should it.
I'm just nice, So with that lot, you don't you worry?
But sometimes I'm afraid they'll expect that nothing less than
a raving beauty is good enough for their Hugh And
I know I'm not dead. Don't they even know what
you look like? I'm not even a picture. Isn't that awful?
(02:28):
But you see, we were married in Europe. We were
both working for i'm la, and then we had a
chance to get a boat back home the next day,
and always had time to do is send them a table.
And now I care to death. There's your own family
live in California. I don't have any family. Or I'm fine.
Oh that's all right. It was a long time ago.
(02:48):
Would you mind holding my ring while I washed? And
I have such a horror of losing it. It slipped
down a drain terrce once and they had to take
the whole pipe off to get it. Not. Oh, it's
a lovely isn't it. I told you we shouldn't spend
so much money on a ring, But now how men
are sometimes see what it says on the inside hue
in the tree. That's nice, sind act. If you want
(03:12):
isn't supposed to be bad luck? I mean to take
your ring off, bad map. I couldn't have any bad luck.
Nice rock. At first, it just changes a little things. Wire, white,
(03:39):
seeing white.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Pushing things around me, white uniform, bending over you, white, covering.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
It on the bench, my hands on your l and watching.
And then I saw her rings on the third single
of my left hand. I got it up before my eyes.
Things began to come back there. Well are you feeling now?
How long have I been here? Almost two days? What
(04:08):
happened to to who? There was another girl? I was
talking to another girl? And then is she all right?
Did you know her very well? Just on the train?
Is she all right?
Speaker 1 (04:20):
No?
Speaker 2 (04:21):
She's dead? Yes? Oh? Is there anyone else you want
to ask about? What happened to to him? Yes? You're
going to have to be a very brave girl, can
you be? Yes? Your husband wasn't saved either? Are for
(04:50):
a long while? I hadn't decided yet. I was just
saying that she had told me, echoing around in my head,
they're terribly well, never see me, not even in the picture,
hammy of my own terribly, why?
Speaker 5 (05:13):
Terribly Why?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
The next afternoon the nurse came in with a big
bunch of flowers. Well, we're looking a lot better today.
I feel dead. Those come from? Do you think you
feel well enough to have visitors? Visitors? Of course you
don't have to cool, can't you guess? Honey? Oh? But
but I don't think that I'm not. Honey. It'll do
(05:36):
you a world is good. I'm frightened, frightened, but I've
never seen them before?
Speaker 6 (05:42):
You haven't, I declare, don't you worry? One little bit, honey.
They're just the nicest boat you would ever meet anywhere.
I know they think an awful lot of you, do
they I'll bring them in. This is you can come
in now, only just a minute.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Yes, the trees. I'm Hugh's mother. How do you do?
And this is my other son's bill. Hello, Hello, my dear.
You know we can overstay a minute, but I well,
I don't want to talk about anything that's painful to you.
(06:20):
It's all right.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
I just want you to know that your loss, our loss.
It's something I hope we can overcome together.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
We both feel that. Patrese, thank you now as soon
as your will.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
In a few days, we're going to take you home
with us to Caulfield, and we want you to know
that our home will be your home always.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Oh, I don't now you.
Speaker 7 (06:46):
Let us do the planning for a while for trees.
I'm afraid you're not in very good shape purchase yet
the trees.
Speaker 5 (06:51):
From everything we both know of Hughes, we know we
want it that way, don't free. It's hard to lose,
the Sun says. It was hard for you to lose
your mother. I know, but it'll be easier now now
that I have a daughter, and you have a mother.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
You see Hi, I don't know what to say. Missus
has not missus has a dear. From now on, it's mother,
you see I come on, my dear, say it? Yes? Mother?
(07:41):
What would you have done?
Speaker 4 (07:43):
Don't judge me unless you worked in a hash house
from behind the counter of a third rate department, door
and scripts and sob to keep up a parent. Don't
judge me unless you've been through that suddenly had a.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Chance to trace it all into security and boss at all.
Just hear somebody somewhere made a little mistake. You're the
daughter in law of a wealthy family in California. All
you have to do is keep your mouth and not Tony,
what were you a son? I kept my mouth shut.
(08:18):
And there were a clothes in a car, and a
lovely room of my own, and the mother, and there
was my brother in law.
Speaker 8 (08:28):
My brother in law a treat because I wasn't Hell
and George so anymore.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I wasn't the poor but dragon little.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
Girl who'd been divorced too months ago buy a rough
in reach of a husband.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I was a treatious for two months, and then everything
seemed to happen at once and just one day today
began at breakfast this.
Speaker 7 (08:53):
Morning, coffee bill, your thanks a minute?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
You knew, Patrice, I was in Paris one as a
girl years ago. Tell me has a changed much since
those days changed?
Speaker 7 (09:05):
How can she answer that?
Speaker 2 (09:06):
Mother?
Speaker 7 (09:06):
He wasn't there when you were that, because you know,
if it's different than it was there.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
You knew what I mean. Don't be so techtical. Why, yes, yes,
it has changed. I suppose you and you were married there,
don't you? No, mother, London?
Speaker 7 (09:20):
Don't you remember the letter with some London letterhead?
Speaker 2 (09:23):
You mean the cable? No, dear, I remember the cable.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
Of course, I mean the letter, and I'm positive it
had a Paris postmark, since I had it right up
there from.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Where I can show you. Well, you hardly have to
do that.
Speaker 7 (09:35):
The tree certainly knows where she was married, all right.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Smarty, will see which was it? The tree? London or Paris?
It was London. Well, I could have spawned so we
could look right away from Paris. She said. I think
what happened was a cure.
Speaker 8 (09:50):
Up a letter in London, and but he didn't get
a chance to knee it until we got to Paris.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
Will that probably was it funny. I don't remember anything
about London.
Speaker 7 (09:59):
Though, But missus head of the morning Mail, Oh.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Thank you, so you just put it right down here,
Bill and circulars.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
So he has run for you, Bill Red, I get
but the tree there's rue for you for me, Mum
huh as a local posma too. I don't wonder who
it could be from what I don't.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Know the tree? Where are you going? I just should
know that I think I let the bath road. A
running back for the letter was it was unsigned. All
its head was I know who you are. But in
(10:52):
the afternoon that I got the hours in between were
almost worse than anything else in the camera, wondering who
it was, who knew who I was? Just my luck
that I was downstairs when it rests.
Speaker 9 (11:06):
Hello, I'd like to speak to missus Hazzard, please the
younger missus Hazzard.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Miss is she? Oh? Hello? Hell? It to Steve. Steve.
Speaker 7 (11:18):
Well, I'm glad at least that you remember me. I
was afraid that under the circumstances you might have forgotten.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
What do you want? I want to see you? You
know that's happy?
Speaker 7 (11:26):
Oh, but I must I want to hear all about it.
Speaker 9 (11:28):
The train recogivery.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
It can't be done now, Helen.
Speaker 9 (11:31):
I simply won't take no for an answer. You'll drive
out of town along the Lake Road, and about five
miles out on the left you'll see a.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
Little bungalow with the green coop standing out in front
of it. I'll be waiting, Look, Steve, Helen, for your
own good I think you'd betterr come.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
In fact, I know you'd betterr come. I went.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Unchanged, a little more run down at the heel, a
little more cynical and sargonic than usual, perhaps, But he
hadn't changed.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Oh no, he hadn't changed. And I heard about the
train wreck. It was comparatively simple.
Speaker 7 (12:13):
Oh, by the way I identified your body, you owe
me something for that.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
At least owe you something? Well, don't you think? So?
What are you doing?
Speaker 7 (12:23):
Mental arithmetic?
Speaker 2 (12:24):
I'm wondering how I could have ever married a man
who stooped a blackmail.
Speaker 9 (12:28):
Oh, come, come, Helen, let's not be emotional about this.
Speaker 7 (12:32):
You have a very nice thing here. I don't have
a thing. They have the money, but you do have
your own bank account, don't you.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
How much do you want? I'm going to be very
fair with you, Helen.
Speaker 7 (12:43):
The truth is I need just enough for a little
business venture in Mexico?
Speaker 2 (12:48):
How much? Only one thousand dollars?
Speaker 7 (12:50):
If you have neglected to bring your checkbook with you,
I have one here, a check I said I was
going to be fair. Don't just see, Helen.
Speaker 9 (12:58):
When the check goes through the bank and comes back
you with my signature on it, you will have evidence
against me.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
I think you call it the blackmail? Do you know
another name for it?
Speaker 9 (13:08):
I think you're being a little unkind, considering that when
you get your check back, you'll have permanent insurance.
Speaker 7 (13:13):
Against my asking you for any more.
Speaker 9 (13:16):
Out here.
Speaker 7 (13:17):
Make the check out to me, Helen, not cash. And
the name is Stephen Jordson. If you remember, I remember.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Thank you, dear.
Speaker 9 (13:27):
I have an idea that I shall make a very
handsome proper on this little investment.
Speaker 7 (13:31):
I hope you do, and when I do, Darling, I
promised that you will be the first to know.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
That should have been enough for one day. But I
might have known that it couldn't be. I might have
known if I stopped to think that I was only
getting in deeper and deeper. There was a strange car
in front of the house.
Speaker 7 (13:55):
When I got there.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
I tried to come in quietly to fear someone would
ask for The family was in the library and they
couldn't help. But see me on the tree? Yes, mother,
will you be in a minute? Lie here? Tree? Do
you know mister Winter? I don't believe I do. Miss
Winter is our attorney. How do you do? You're in
the party? Yes? Here, we want you to hear this.
It's concerned.
Speaker 7 (14:16):
Well, I think I've just about turned my part.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
The rest of it is up to you two.
Speaker 7 (14:20):
Now shall I sign?
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Now? Well, I think you better tell the Trees first.
Don't you think she ought to know?
Speaker 7 (14:26):
I'll tell her if you like. That's I can't explain
it a little easier. You see, missus Hazard is changing
her will.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Oh will. Yes.
Speaker 10 (14:36):
Previously her estate had been equally divided between her two sons,
But now since there is only one remaining heir, that
is Bill, she's adding a cardoso, providing that one half
of her estate shall now go to You.
Speaker 7 (14:49):
Don't look that way about her. She's not doing anybody
out of anything for Trees. I have the business Dad.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Left for me.
Speaker 6 (14:55):
No, now you mustn't do it with Bill the own suggestion,
My dear, I don't want any part of it, don't
you see?
Speaker 2 (15:01):
She feels that way on account of shoes.
Speaker 7 (15:05):
You better go after And all right, Patrice, wait a minute,
listen to me, Patrice, was in the world.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
You and mother have been so wonderful to me? Oh
why you know one of the family now I don't
deserve But that's all. Listen to, Tries.
Speaker 7 (15:23):
It's something I want to tell you, very seriously. I'll
admit that the first I wondered if you're coming to us,
if the money had anything to do with it. I
wondered about one or two other little things. But now
I know because I know you, Patrice, and changing the
will won't really make any difference now because I know, no.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Wait till don't you know? Don't you still he's not yet?
This isn't the time.
Speaker 7 (15:54):
I know, it hasn't been very long, but I've got
to tell you now. I love you the priest, and
I want you to marry me. Oh, Billy, is it
as bad as all that? I know I didn't say
it right, But I see you every day, PATRICEA I'm
with you every day.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
You just have given me a few more days.
Speaker 7 (16:15):
Well then there is some hope, Tries, I don't know
the price.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Is it the best? Oh? No, I've never really been
in love. I've got to go and ask you.
Speaker 7 (16:29):
Are you afraid I'll kiss you?
Speaker 2 (16:31):
I'm afraid. I want you to see it wasn't just
the money security anymore. I'd have loved him if he'd
been apart. This was it all right? At first? I haven't.
Speaker 8 (17:00):
I wanted to go to the Aswer Country Club and
be said and asked takful questions about you.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Now I was wrong. Now it was pure escape from
the turmoil of my thoughts and the jolt and indecision,
pure escape.
Speaker 7 (17:14):
I thought, if I known you danced this well, hasn't
anybody ever told you that before?
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Not? Really? Well, then I'll continue.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
That's you're my father, most beautiful girl here?
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Am I? You know quite well? You're perfectly aware of
all this?
Speaker 7 (17:31):
And if you weren't one, look at that sagline with you.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
I'm asking so not you.
Speaker 7 (17:41):
I beg your pardon?
Speaker 2 (17:42):
You mind if I come in?
Speaker 7 (17:44):
Ohsin, mister George, ohoh, this is a very great pleasures.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
I'll see you later, right? What's doing here?
Speaker 4 (17:55):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I've been moving in quite the best circles, didn't you know?
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Dan? You shouldn't be out you went, I'm not no,
I'm not fuss.
Speaker 7 (18:02):
Is there anything that is for someone in your position?
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Leave me alone? Catch I want to talk to.
Speaker 7 (18:07):
You about it.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Yes, I guess you're right. Come on, let's go out
on the veranda.
Speaker 7 (18:14):
What I have to say won't take very long in.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Ah. Yes, I think it's much better out of here. Ah.
I see what about the second?
Speaker 10 (18:27):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Yes, indeed, it's quite the nicest check I've ever had. Attack,
I've still got it, aren't you go into house?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
I'm afraid you were thinking very clearly this afternoon, Helen.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
You remember I told you.
Speaker 7 (18:38):
But once that check passed through the bank and come
back to you.
Speaker 9 (18:40):
With my signature on it, you would be holding evidence
against me. Yes, But of course if I don't catch it,
if I just hang on to it, then I'm holding
evidence against you.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
There quite damaging evidence. See what do you want now.
Speaker 9 (18:57):
Helen, I'm afraid I'm not interested in a mere thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Then give it up to me. I'll give you more
whatever I can.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
No, no, no ella, and I have no intention of
giving this check back to you.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
But do you see this album?
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Yes, you'll notice that it's addressed to William.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Hazard at this office, so that you can't accept it.
Speaker 7 (19:13):
It contains that check that's going into the mail tonight.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
You wouldn't do that?
Speaker 9 (19:17):
Oh yes, I would unless unless what unless you take
a little drive with me that I planned for tonight.
Speaker 7 (19:22):
Oh it's not far, just to Hastings.
Speaker 9 (19:24):
But it's over the state line, and there's a.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Justice of the peace there fasts up the peace, and
he's going to make us man.
Speaker 9 (19:31):
And wife all over again, mister and missus Stephen Jordson. Gee, No,
then I'll mail a checking her.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
What Why do you have to do that?
Speaker 9 (19:43):
Missus Hazard, whom you've been calling your mother in law
can't last forever.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
And when she goes, of course you'll inherit a.
Speaker 9 (19:48):
Why she's made about two hundred thousand dollars under the
laws your husband.
Speaker 7 (19:51):
A third of that is mine And for that kind
of money, Darling, I can afford to wait?
Speaker 2 (19:56):
How could you? How could you know the bride? I
would you choose the time?
Speaker 9 (20:02):
But it must be too night, Oh, Steve, there must
be someone there isn't it's tonight or I mailed.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
The check, but late, it's got to be late.
Speaker 7 (20:16):
I see your point three o'clock all right.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Help me choose your house three o'clock and then.
Speaker 9 (20:25):
Be on time, Helen, because the United States mail is
always on time.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
Oh, there you are, for trees.
Speaker 7 (20:30):
Oh excuse me, good night, missus Hazard, I've been looking
for you.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
I wasn't too long with that.
Speaker 7 (20:36):
Oh no, you know that fellow George. No, well, I'm
glad you don't.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
He's no good. Oh.
Speaker 7 (20:44):
It seems he's a professional gambler. It wasn't sure until tonight,
but he's done some of our members out of quite
a little money, including me.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
You would you take me home? I'm terribly tired.
Speaker 7 (20:55):
Of course, of course I will thank the trees. Yes, Bill,
Have you got about what I said?
Speaker 2 (21:04):
This hate me? Yes? Well I can't give you an answer. Now.
Will it be soon? Yes? So soon. There was nothing
(21:28):
else to do. Now. I went until the house was start,
and I'm sure everyone would.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
And got the gun that I found one day in
a cupboard in the garage, and I drove out to
me to see.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Given me to worry about my being on time. I
was right there on schedule.
Speaker 9 (21:45):
Wow, Well, well, come in, come in.
