Speaker 1 (00:25):
Presenting Orson Wells as the Third Man, The Lives of
Harry Lyon, the fabulous stories of the immortal character originally
created in the motion picture of The Third Man with
(00:45):
zither music by Anton Carris.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
That was the shock that killed Harry Lyon. He died
in a sewer beneath Vienna. And as course of you
know who saw the movie The Third Man, Yes, that
was the end of Harry line, but it was not
the beginning. Now, he had many lives. I can tell
(01:15):
you about all of them. How because my name is
Harry Lyme. Did I ever tell you about the time
when I outwitted three very suspicious Wall Street investors at
a net property yours truly of fifty five thousand American dollars?
Speaker 3 (01:34):
No, Well, I will sometime anyway.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Because of that little caper, I decided that an ocean
trip would be good for my nerves and for the
nerves of some half dozen New York detectives. That's how
I happen to go on a holiday, a rogues holiday,
if you will.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
And now Orson Wells as Harry Lyons the Third Man
in Rhodes holiday.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
That doesn't stay aside of New York boy, the Queen
Anne back to Southampton. I was on the passenger list
as jayn Lyne. I ate, of course at the captain's table,
remembering how I put the investments of those three Wall
Street brokers in my own personal piggy bank.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Whenever I was.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Asked and what business are you in, mister Line.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
I would smile to myself and answer, I'm an investment broker,
Lady Barbara. It is the Lady Barbara for you, isn't it. Yes,
of course, I thought, liny aren't you also sitting at
the captain's table. Yes, that's right, and I seem to
remember that there's an empty chair at the table next
to yours. You're not traveling alone.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
I it's of no importance. You are on the holiday, mister.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Lione, the holiday.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
After a manner of speaking, yes, I don't understand.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I'm so interested in my work, Lady Barbara, that I'm
seldom able to keep from mixing pleasure and business.
Speaker 6 (03:45):
You seem so young to be engaged in so conflicts
a business investment banker. I always thought all bankers were
put him in in their fifteen.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Every banker must be able to inspire confidence in his
client's lady Barbara, the incompetent banker relies on his appeal
and his maturity, and you I rely on my record
of success. Know her, know her at all. When I
was on my holiday pleasant boat Queen Ann's gets to
take six days to Southampton, she was. I had plenty
(04:15):
of time, but the question of Lady Barbara Folliott's bank account,
and the question of the empty chair next to at
the captain's table prayed a bit on my mind. So
I looked at the passenger of this. There she was,
all right, Lady Barbara Fournett stayed room a deck stateroom
for two words. Now, all I said was and companion
and companion? What did that mean? Not her husband's Really?
I put the Stewart first stateroom. Stewart, you're in charge
(04:40):
of the stateroom. As long as coloridan show. She's just
now number six. I believe that's lady Barbara Follett's stage room.
Is that I believe er I was wondering, just idle curiosity.
You know, on the passenger of this she's done as
traveling with a companion, but he doesn't say who the
companion might be. You got a steward us she had
to take this fe in trouble. Won't you tell me
(05:01):
who a companion is? No ship, not leadship. It will
there be a.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Hair just a minute now, Yes, are all man? I
said your ten dollar builders for a bit of information.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
The lady in questions a ship be a double swore
bot not to give out that informationship.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
And double sam twenty dollars as well. Then I'll just
take this for your trouble. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Then about Lady Barbara's companion.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
You were planning a little hanky panky, no dirty, thank you,
thank you.
Speaker 5 (05:24):
Worried were you say this?
Speaker 2 (05:26):
The companion might be the.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
Husband of the lady in question, Yes, something like that. Yes,
looking for a little shipboard romance, No doubt, that's it.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Now who's the companion?
Speaker 3 (05:35):
You've got clearer sailings?
Speaker 2 (05:37):
The companions not a husband?
Speaker 7 (05:39):
Later off, Yeah, take my advice and wait till the
companion's got her seat like a lot cue to the companion.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
The lady Barbarison, thank.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
You to be told.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
So. In the next day or so, I found opportunities
for squiring lady by around the boat, cocktails and the evening,
a drink or do after dinner, even a game at
a deck tennis in the afternoon. Something she'd said made
me prick up my ears when he double my attentions
to as a perspective, Shall I say, client, we were
having brandy in the lounge.
Speaker 6 (06:14):
After dinner the other day, mister lion. Yes, you were saying.
But what you relied on to inspire your clients with
confidence was.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
My continuing success.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Yes, that's right, I must say, you inspire me.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Well, that's half the battle of an investment banker like me.
Have you some problem with your own investments?
Speaker 6 (06:32):
To be frank, yes I have, mister Lion. We must
talk of it further tomorrow, Thank you. I should like to,
but the truth is.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
I must be You are companion.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
The reason for the empty chair next to you at
the table. She hasn't a sea legs yet.
Speaker 5 (06:49):
How did you know it was?
Speaker 2 (06:50):
She?
Speaker 6 (06:51):
Not?
Speaker 2 (06:51):
He?
Speaker 6 (06:52):
Well, it's no matter. You'll probably be meeting her tomorrow.
If she takes a liking to you, mister Lion, as
I have, then perhaps we can do some business, that is,
if you want.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Anyway I can be of service made About next morning
I ran into their steward and he told me that
both ladies were out promenade and some caution. I went looking,
because I'm true, I was on holiday, but still if
I could turn my hand to a piece of business. Besides,
I was curious about this mysterious companion, whose name is
not even carried on the passenger list. Turning a corner
(07:28):
on the promenade deck, I nearly bumped into them. Correctly,
I ducked back behind the backhead as they passed. And
my francess, So my companion was a princess, and the
rest I'd seen that she wore a veil close over
her hair and face, but no veil could conceal that beauty.
(07:48):
And I'd seen something else that interested me too, A
string of pearls matched pearls. I maneuvered into positions with
the next round on the promenade. And Lady Barbara, Oh,
good morning to lie.
Speaker 5 (08:01):
And this is a nice man I've told you about.
It's been so kind to me, mister Lyme. This is
miss how do you do, mister Lyon?
Speaker 2 (08:08):
I am pleased to meet you, Miss Jones. Such an
ardly name, is such an extraordinary young lady.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
He makes nice peaches, Bob.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
But just as you said he did, perhaps you'll permit
me to join you.
Speaker 6 (08:18):
Oh, I'm so sorry. We were just going in, mister
Lyme work.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
We then, at least, Missus Jones, maybe you will join
me and Lady Barba this evening before dinner.
Speaker 6 (08:27):
Mister Lyon insists on the practice of buying me a
cocktail before dinner.
Speaker 5 (08:31):
Why I should like that?
Speaker 6 (08:32):
Only as to cocktails, the ship's doctor told me that
perhaps until I am stronger, I should drink something perfect.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I'll make sure there's about a nice few missus, Miss Jones.
Mister Jones, I was sure that well, I have named
Jones as a phoney. The pearls who weren't as was
promising to become one of the more profitable holadays, had
(09:00):
spent that evening. I was in the lounge earlier, bucket
of ice champagne by my side, mister Lyons.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
As you've promised my wine.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Spending, Miss Jones, I think it should be adequate.
Speaker 5 (09:12):
She was a little indisposed. She sends you up a dance.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
You sit down, Stewart, I confess, Miss Jones, I'm not
too sorry that I bother's not joining us tonight. I
was looking forward sort of meeting you. You've become a
lady of mystery and having met you this morning on
the promenade deck. I spent a day looking forward to
chatting with you.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
More picky speeches.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
All right, fine, fine, fine, thank you.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
If the wine meets with Miss Jones' approval of.
Speaker 6 (09:36):
Miss Jones knows little of wine, mister Lyon, she is
content to be such bad up to you.
Speaker 5 (09:41):
You have one, Lady Barbara's confident, and that means that
you have one line.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Then a toast to your improved health. Miss Jones?
Speaker 6 (09:49):
Now, why do you always pause as if you do
not remember my name?
Speaker 2 (09:53):
My apology is very rude of me.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
I'm off this.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
I accept you.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Oh what is it?
Speaker 3 (09:59):
Oh my, it's only yeah, yeah, look.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
I'm just just all still.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
You know how many of them there were?
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (10:04):
Yes, yes there was sixty first week.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Make sure another of roller under here. Yeah, here's an.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
All such a stupid thing. I really must have faced it.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Here there's another Stewart.
Speaker 5 (10:14):
I know that it is all right.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
I think I think that's all of them. Let me
see quickly.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
That's five, ten, fifteen, Yes, just hang.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
On a second. The ladies string of first rog and
maybe the one or two are still.
Speaker 6 (10:25):
I had done done such a bit, such a foolish thing.
Fifty five and five is sixty and one to sift four.
Speaker 5 (10:34):
Yes, that is a whole lot of sense. I thank you.
Still have lucky thing man, Oh, mister Julia.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
Cray, anything at all?
Speaker 2 (10:42):
I say? You're sure they're all here?
Speaker 5 (10:43):
Well?
Speaker 6 (10:43):
Yes, sure, I take them when you you have an
envelope perhaps or very safe pocket.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Take them from me to the little jus.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
The shop, you know, the one right on listen, shine
of the shop.
Speaker 6 (10:52):
But maybe it's still open. You can have the man
of these things and part of the other all loose things.
Speaker 5 (10:57):
Would you do that?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
I'm not sure I like the idea. Really wandering around
the ship of a handful of loose pearls is not
quite the real thing.
Speaker 6 (11:03):
No, no, they will be perfectly safe.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
Now, won't you call me such?
Speaker 6 (11:07):
I didn't say if this drop should still be open?
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Please believe you.
Speaker 6 (11:12):
I shall sit here quite quietly, just thinking how lucky
I am that you work with me when the string
books till you return.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Right for the bank as soon as I can.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Orson Wells returns. In just a moment, there's the third man,
(12:28):
and now Orson Wells. As the third man continues with
Rogue's holiday.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
So then I was by myself, free as the wind,
with sixty four pearls in my pocket. Even one of them,
one of the bigger ones, were worth wow, five thousand
pounds something like that, nice son, my staydroom. I had
some loose pearls paste that could have made the sweitch
easily and after plenty of times, And a stupid thief
might have done just that. But not Harry Lyon. Oh no, no,
I played smart. I'd wait till later. I went straight
(13:03):
to the ship's jeweler. String broker. If you could do
a quick but good repair job, old man, I'd do
more smart, easy enough to take a moment. Just throw
them out here?
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Good ones, don't there?
Speaker 3 (13:16):
They look at don't they?
Speaker 5 (13:17):
Yes, it's an experts.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
I would have any handsome Indeed, how.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Much would you ask to make that string to be worth.
Speaker 7 (13:23):
If you were to just walk into the shop enough
to buy them again, or or if you wanted me
to find you another sixty four lights?
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Now just walk in and buy them fifty thousand pounds?
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Oh, I'd say this string closer to one hundred and
fifty thousand.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Well, that was a pretty rich man there a few minutes.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Very nice up that string shouldn't break thy Thanks very
much away, we all forget himself.
Speaker 5 (13:45):
The privilege to be handling those pearls, even.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
If only for a moment, it would have been foolish
for me to temper was fortune I was still board ship.
Two days we'd be in Southampton, at which they'd be
still out of time. The important thing, let's get this
this lovely girl's confidence, which I most certainly did. And
the second thing is to pry under her incognito. Who
(14:07):
wash it which princess of the blood was anxious to
conceal her identity under the prevere name of Jones. And
why not until the last night, when the ship was
gliding into the soft darkness past p Limouth, and the
two of us stood under a sickle moon on the
boat deck, did I find out if she looked lovely
in that moonlight? Her pearls looked even lovely.
Speaker 5 (14:30):
Oh, the one that is soft warming night?
Speaker 2 (14:33):
I have noticed.
Speaker 6 (14:36):
Oh the band has begun playing again, can't you hear it?
Speaker 5 (14:40):
Who's the legend?
Speaker 2 (14:41):
I need all my five senses. There's something more important
than looking at night, So listening to the dances and
must know if the night is warm it's because it
must be to afford you a warm mantle. If the
band is playing, it's only to provide a setting for
your voice. Yes, sir Joe my name, Yes, and don't move?
(15:08):
What price the warmth of the night, of the music
of a band?
Speaker 6 (15:13):
O kis very expecting, mist should I say, you seem
very practiced.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
If a cat may look at the king, and perhaps
it's all right if I kiss of princess, you was
not like I knew you were a princess, not your name,
if that matters, you are conius.
Speaker 6 (15:37):
I think you have got a news feign, since you
have shown yourself crustworthy. I can't see now this import
notting you anymore. I am and a Bourbon princess of Hilbertstein.
You have heard our principality.
Speaker 5 (15:51):
It is eastern.
Speaker 6 (15:51):
Germany, beyond the il trotin. I should say it was
this no more. It's all gone except except what I'm
not sure. I would not know until I meet my
husband in London. If I meet my husband, if some
doubt I have said too.
Speaker 5 (16:08):
Much all of her de mister Lyne, it is too bad.
Speaker 6 (16:11):
It has been a pleasant evening. I was almost able
to forget for good night.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
She was gone just like that. At least I knew
now who she was, whether I'd be able to find
her again in London, whether I'd frightened her away, and
whether I chanced at that string of pearls by letting
her know that I knew she was a princess. All
these things I was a little nervous about till next day,
just I was getting ready to disembark in Southampton, Lady
(16:43):
Barbara came up to me rather quickly.
Speaker 5 (16:46):
Mister Lyne here from I read it.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Please, After the last time, I've been worried if you
I just possibly have said.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Something that you know I might have offended your friend,
Miss uh Jones off Were you a note?
Speaker 2 (17:01):
The notepaper bought a Crestor Colins with one sheet of
heavy paper folded once. There was no salutation. The note said,
as you said a catnall of the King, it might
be interesting and fun to experiment once more with your
other statement, for one about a princess. There was no signature,
but none was necessary.
Speaker 6 (17:22):
Do you feel better? She asked me to tell you
that we would be stopping at the Carlton. We'd hope
to see you then.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
So she had arranged that we should meet again. I've
only met again away from the dangerous confines of an
ocean liner. I proposed to relieve her lovely neck because
of lovely pearls. I'm sure I was on a holiday
and Santam I was involved with. These were factors that
had to be disregarded. My scheme was foolproof. As it
turned out, the scheme wasn't needed the first time I
(17:54):
saw her in the sitting room of the Carlton. Sweet mister, n.
Speaker 6 (17:59):
All of it, ari, you have already done me one favor.
Speaker 5 (18:03):
I hate to ask if.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
I told you imate your service, missus Jones.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
No, no call me, I flee. If you want me highly,
I should be Oh no no, don't leave bout still
with us.
Speaker 6 (18:13):
You know the favor I have to ask a very anyway.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
He started to say anything short of murder.
Speaker 6 (18:20):
No, no, it's nothing like that. First listen on shipboard.
You remember I told you I want to meet my husband.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
If you said yes, if this is.
Speaker 6 (18:29):
The if years ago are when you read Army was
driving to East Germany, we had to flee. Asked me
what was valuable that we had jewels and gold plated
pitiful collection of Ali but all we had, he heeded himself.
Speaker 5 (18:43):
Yeah, noe, you were. It's trusted in those days. No one.
Then a few weeks.
Speaker 6 (18:48):
Ago we planned to get it back. It would cost
us a lot of renew bribes, the purchase of a plane,
fee for the pilot, more bribes, and always more bribes
closer to fly in the heldics time. Don't you himself
mad and dangerous idea, I think, sir, But you refuse
to tell anyone else where his cash I was, he
could not trust anyone. I went to America to raise
(19:11):
some funds with me. Lady Barbara has been good enough
to lend us more, but just today I have.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Learned it even more reson more money.
Speaker 6 (19:20):
Mischief lyon say no quickly if you cannot do me
this favor. But I have exhausted all my other resources.
If you knew how much it costs to bribe these
suspicios over.
Speaker 5 (19:31):
You need, Oh, you will do it.
Speaker 6 (19:32):
It's just alone. Mind your pressure. Lady Barbo's investment will
join her. All we need as the first of the
next quarter, and then I can tell you how.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Much do you need?
Speaker 5 (19:43):
Ten thousand American dollars?
Speaker 3 (19:46):
It is too much, so no, no, certainly not, and see.
Speaker 6 (19:51):
For security, for security on your downer here you will
take this my firs. You have already once guarded them when.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
Oh please, sir, I wouldn't dream though.
Speaker 6 (20:02):
Yes I insist, otherwise I will not even ask you
for the loan of the ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Oh oh well, if you insist, now.
Speaker 5 (20:11):
How can we arrange the st the money?
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Well, I have more than that here in the hotel's
safe and American dollars. To just let me ring the desk,
I slip downstairs and the lift elevator to you, back
up again to my room and over to hers. I
handed a ten bills, She handed me the furs. We smiled,
shook hands in.

Speaker 5 (23:09):
That's where she was born. And she took you and
shook you for a much.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
I gave her ten thousand American dollars.
Speaker 5 (23:18):
I'll die the oldest game in the world.
Speaker 7 (23:20):
That's pulled on dollars on Manrry line himself.
Speaker 8 (23:23):
I'll die.
Speaker 7 (23:25):
From three sixteen, please Erry witness Jude gets around voy
I'm calling this.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Jones, no, never mind?
Speaker 3 (23:35):
Oh well, do I win my bet? And did you
lose your ten thousand American dollars? Oh my god, these
these pears better than nothing, Harry.
Speaker 7 (23:48):
It's a good imitation, must be worth fifty pounds.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
I'm on my holiday.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
I come out ahead after all.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
What what about your ten thousand American dollars?
Speaker 2 (23:59):
Selected a lot of or from Crapham tries to pass
that ten thousand Donnie the count of it. That'll teach
miss Jones to try anything fast to Harry Lyme.
Speaker 4 (24:25):
Harry Lyme returns in just a moment, and now Harry Lyon.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
Well, it seems that miss Jones found herself a legitimate
prince one of those exiles in Portugal and settled down
to them in Lisbon. I ran into her as career
a couple of seasons later she was a real princess now,
but it seems his Highness isn't as young as he was,
and probably never was, so the princess is very democratic.
She asked me to their place for dinners, that she
thought i'd be interested in some of the interior decorations.
(25:50):
I was. She complimented me on my nice set of
pearl studs, which she recognized, and showed me the end
of the cloak room, which was entirely wallpapered in American
ten dollar bills or a reasonable facsimile. I recognize them.
No hard feelings, you understand. It's a present little paper,
and I always enjoy moving about amongst the upper classes.
It's so educational.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
Well, goodbye for now.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Don't take any lead, Nichols, and remember, if you can't
manage to resist temptation, be sure you'll get it appraised.
Speaker 8 (27:01):
Eutation that its.

Presenting Orson Wells as the Third Man, The Lives of
Harry Lyon, the fabulous stories of the immortal character originally
created in the motion picture of The Third Man with
(00:45):
zither music by Anton Carris.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
That was the shock that killed Harry Lyon. He died
in a sewer beneath Vienna. And as course of you
know who saw the movie The Third Man, Yes, that
was the end of Harry line, but it was not
the beginning. Now, he had many lives. I can tell
(01:15):
you about all of them. How because my name is
Harry Lyme. Did I ever tell you about the time
when I outwitted three very suspicious Wall Street investors at
a net property yours truly of fifty five thousand American dollars?
Speaker 3 (01:34):
No, Well, I will sometime anyway.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Because of that little caper, I decided that an ocean
trip would be good for my nerves and for the
nerves of some half dozen New York detectives. That's how
I happen to go on a holiday, a rogues holiday,
if you will.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
And now Orson Wells as Harry Lyons the Third Man
in Rhodes holiday.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
That doesn't stay aside of New York boy, the Queen
Anne back to Southampton. I was on the passenger list
as jayn Lyne. I ate, of course at the captain's table,
remembering how I put the investments of those three Wall
Street brokers in my own personal piggy bank.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Whenever I was.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Asked and what business are you in, mister Line.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
I would smile to myself and answer, I'm an investment broker,
Lady Barbara. It is the Lady Barbara for you, isn't it. Yes,
of course, I thought, liny aren't you also sitting at
the captain's table. Yes, that's right, and I seem to
remember that there's an empty chair at the table next
to yours. You're not traveling alone.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
I it's of no importance. You are on the holiday, mister.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Lione, the holiday.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
After a manner of speaking, yes, I don't understand.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I'm so interested in my work, Lady Barbara, that I'm
seldom able to keep from mixing pleasure and business.
Speaker 6 (03:45):
You seem so young to be engaged in so conflicts
a business investment banker. I always thought all bankers were
put him in in their fifteen.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Every banker must be able to inspire confidence in his
client's lady Barbara, the incompetent banker relies on his appeal
and his maturity, and you I rely on my record
of success. Know her, know her at all. When I
was on my holiday pleasant boat Queen Ann's gets to
take six days to Southampton, she was. I had plenty
(04:15):
of time, but the question of Lady Barbara Folliott's bank account,
and the question of the empty chair next to at
the captain's table prayed a bit on my mind. So
I looked at the passenger of this. There she was,
all right, Lady Barbara Fournett stayed room a deck stateroom
for two words. Now, all I said was and companion
and companion? What did that mean? Not her husband's Really?
I put the Stewart first stateroom. Stewart, you're in charge
(04:40):
of the stateroom. As long as coloridan show. She's just
now number six. I believe that's lady Barbara Follett's stage room.
Is that I believe er I was wondering, just idle curiosity.
You know, on the passenger of this she's done as
traveling with a companion, but he doesn't say who the
companion might be. You got a steward us she had
to take this fe in trouble. Won't you tell me
(05:01):
who a companion is? No ship, not leadship. It will
there be a.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Hair just a minute now, Yes, are all man? I
said your ten dollar builders for a bit of information.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
The lady in questions a ship be a double swore
bot not to give out that informationship.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
And double sam twenty dollars as well. Then I'll just
take this for your trouble. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Then about Lady Barbara's companion.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
You were planning a little hanky panky, no dirty, thank you,
thank you.
Speaker 5 (05:24):
Worried were you say this?
Speaker 2 (05:26):
The companion might be the.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
Husband of the lady in question, Yes, something like that. Yes,
looking for a little shipboard romance, No doubt, that's it.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Now who's the companion?
Speaker 3 (05:35):
You've got clearer sailings?
Speaker 2 (05:37):
The companions not a husband?
Speaker 7 (05:39):
Later off, Yeah, take my advice and wait till the
companion's got her seat like a lot cue to the companion.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
The lady Barbarison, thank.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
You to be told.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
So. In the next day or so, I found opportunities
for squiring lady by around the boat, cocktails and the evening,
a drink or do after dinner, even a game at
a deck tennis in the afternoon. Something she'd said made
me prick up my ears when he double my attentions
to as a perspective, Shall I say, client, we were
having brandy in the lounge.
Speaker 6 (06:14):
After dinner the other day, mister lion. Yes, you were saying.
But what you relied on to inspire your clients with
confidence was.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
My continuing success.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Yes, that's right, I must say, you inspire me.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Well, that's half the battle of an investment banker like me.
Have you some problem with your own investments?
Speaker 6 (06:32):
To be frank, yes I have, mister Lion. We must
talk of it further tomorrow, Thank you. I should like to,
but the truth is.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
I must be You are companion.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
The reason for the empty chair next to you at
the table. She hasn't a sea legs yet.
Speaker 5 (06:49):
How did you know it was?
Speaker 2 (06:50):
She?
Speaker 6 (06:51):
Not?
Speaker 2 (06:51):
He?
Speaker 6 (06:52):
Well, it's no matter. You'll probably be meeting her tomorrow.
If she takes a liking to you, mister Lion, as
I have, then perhaps we can do some business, that is,
if you want.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Anyway I can be of service made About next morning
I ran into their steward and he told me that
both ladies were out promenade and some caution. I went looking,
because I'm true, I was on holiday, but still if
I could turn my hand to a piece of business. Besides,
I was curious about this mysterious companion, whose name is
not even carried on the passenger list. Turning a corner
(07:28):
on the promenade deck, I nearly bumped into them. Correctly,
I ducked back behind the backhead as they passed. And
my francess, So my companion was a princess, and the
rest I'd seen that she wore a veil close over
her hair and face, but no veil could conceal that beauty.
(07:48):
And I'd seen something else that interested me too, A
string of pearls matched pearls. I maneuvered into positions with
the next round on the promenade. And Lady Barbara, Oh,
good morning to lie.
Speaker 5 (08:01):
And this is a nice man I've told you about.
It's been so kind to me, mister Lyme. This is
miss how do you do, mister Lyon?
Speaker 2 (08:08):
I am pleased to meet you, Miss Jones. Such an
ardly name, is such an extraordinary young lady.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
He makes nice peaches, Bob.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
But just as you said he did, perhaps you'll permit
me to join you.
Speaker 6 (08:18):
Oh, I'm so sorry. We were just going in, mister
Lyme work.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
We then, at least, Missus Jones, maybe you will join
me and Lady Barba this evening before dinner.
Speaker 6 (08:27):
Mister Lyon insists on the practice of buying me a
cocktail before dinner.
Speaker 5 (08:31):
Why I should like that?
Speaker 6 (08:32):
Only as to cocktails, the ship's doctor told me that
perhaps until I am stronger, I should drink something perfect.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I'll make sure there's about a nice few missus, Miss Jones.
Mister Jones, I was sure that well, I have named
Jones as a phoney. The pearls who weren't as was
promising to become one of the more profitable holadays, had
(09:00):
spent that evening. I was in the lounge earlier, bucket
of ice champagne by my side, mister Lyons.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
As you've promised my wine.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Spending, Miss Jones, I think it should be adequate.
Speaker 5 (09:12):
She was a little indisposed. She sends you up a dance.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
You sit down, Stewart, I confess, Miss Jones, I'm not
too sorry that I bother's not joining us tonight. I
was looking forward sort of meeting you. You've become a
lady of mystery and having met you this morning on
the promenade deck. I spent a day looking forward to
chatting with you.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
More picky speeches.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
All right, fine, fine, fine, thank you.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
If the wine meets with Miss Jones' approval of.
Speaker 6 (09:36):
Miss Jones knows little of wine, mister Lyon, she is
content to be such bad up to you.
Speaker 5 (09:41):
You have one, Lady Barbara's confident, and that means that
you have one line.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Then a toast to your improved health. Miss Jones?
Speaker 6 (09:49):
Now, why do you always pause as if you do
not remember my name?
Speaker 2 (09:53):
My apology is very rude of me.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
I'm off this.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
I accept you.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Oh what is it?
Speaker 3 (09:59):
Oh my, it's only yeah, yeah, look.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
I'm just just all still.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
You know how many of them there were?
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (10:04):
Yes, yes there was sixty first week.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Make sure another of roller under here. Yeah, here's an.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
All such a stupid thing. I really must have faced it.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Here there's another Stewart.
Speaker 5 (10:14):
I know that it is all right.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
I think I think that's all of them. Let me
see quickly.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
That's five, ten, fifteen, Yes, just hang.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
On a second. The ladies string of first rog and
maybe the one or two are still.
Speaker 6 (10:25):
I had done done such a bit, such a foolish thing.
Fifty five and five is sixty and one to sift four.
Speaker 5 (10:34):
Yes, that is a whole lot of sense. I thank you.
Still have lucky thing man, Oh, mister Julia.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
Cray, anything at all?
Speaker 2 (10:42):
I say? You're sure they're all here?
Speaker 5 (10:43):
Well?
Speaker 6 (10:43):
Yes, sure, I take them when you you have an
envelope perhaps or very safe pocket.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Take them from me to the little jus.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
The shop, you know, the one right on listen, shine
of the shop.
Speaker 6 (10:52):
But maybe it's still open. You can have the man
of these things and part of the other all loose things.
Speaker 5 (10:57):
Would you do that?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
I'm not sure I like the idea. Really wandering around
the ship of a handful of loose pearls is not
quite the real thing.
Speaker 6 (11:03):
No, no, they will be perfectly safe.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
Now, won't you call me such?
Speaker 6 (11:07):
I didn't say if this drop should still be open?
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Please believe you.
Speaker 6 (11:12):
I shall sit here quite quietly, just thinking how lucky
I am that you work with me when the string
books till you return.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Right for the bank as soon as I can.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Orson Wells returns. In just a moment, there's the third man,
(12:28):
and now Orson Wells. As the third man continues with
Rogue's holiday.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
So then I was by myself, free as the wind,
with sixty four pearls in my pocket. Even one of them,
one of the bigger ones, were worth wow, five thousand
pounds something like that, nice son, my staydroom. I had
some loose pearls paste that could have made the sweitch
easily and after plenty of times, And a stupid thief
might have done just that. But not Harry Lyon. Oh no, no,
I played smart. I'd wait till later. I went straight
(13:03):
to the ship's jeweler. String broker. If you could do
a quick but good repair job, old man, I'd do
more smart, easy enough to take a moment. Just throw
them out here?
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Good ones, don't there?
Speaker 3 (13:16):
They look at don't they?
Speaker 5 (13:17):
Yes, it's an experts.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
I would have any handsome Indeed, how.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Much would you ask to make that string to be worth.
Speaker 7 (13:23):
If you were to just walk into the shop enough
to buy them again, or or if you wanted me
to find you another sixty four lights?
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Now just walk in and buy them fifty thousand pounds?
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Oh, I'd say this string closer to one hundred and
fifty thousand.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Well, that was a pretty rich man there a few minutes.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Very nice up that string shouldn't break thy Thanks very
much away, we all forget himself.
Speaker 5 (13:45):
The privilege to be handling those pearls, even.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
If only for a moment, it would have been foolish
for me to temper was fortune I was still board ship.
Two days we'd be in Southampton, at which they'd be
still out of time. The important thing, let's get this
this lovely girl's confidence, which I most certainly did. And
the second thing is to pry under her incognito. Who
(14:07):
wash it which princess of the blood was anxious to
conceal her identity under the prevere name of Jones. And
why not until the last night, when the ship was
gliding into the soft darkness past p Limouth, and the
two of us stood under a sickle moon on the
boat deck, did I find out if she looked lovely
in that moonlight? Her pearls looked even lovely.
Speaker 5 (14:30):
Oh, the one that is soft warming night?
Speaker 2 (14:33):
I have noticed.
Speaker 6 (14:36):
Oh the band has begun playing again, can't you hear it?
Speaker 5 (14:40):
Who's the legend?
Speaker 2 (14:41):
I need all my five senses. There's something more important
than looking at night, So listening to the dances and
must know if the night is warm it's because it
must be to afford you a warm mantle. If the
band is playing, it's only to provide a setting for
your voice. Yes, sir Joe my name, Yes, and don't move?
(15:08):
What price the warmth of the night, of the music
of a band?
Speaker 6 (15:13):
O kis very expecting, mist should I say, you seem
very practiced.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
If a cat may look at the king, and perhaps
it's all right if I kiss of princess, you was
not like I knew you were a princess, not your name,
if that matters, you are conius.
Speaker 6 (15:37):
I think you have got a news feign, since you
have shown yourself crustworthy. I can't see now this import
notting you anymore. I am and a Bourbon princess of Hilbertstein.
You have heard our principality.
Speaker 5 (15:51):
It is eastern.
Speaker 6 (15:51):
Germany, beyond the il trotin. I should say it was
this no more. It's all gone except except what I'm
not sure. I would not know until I meet my
husband in London. If I meet my husband, if some
doubt I have said too.
Speaker 5 (16:08):
Much all of her de mister Lyne, it is too bad.
Speaker 6 (16:11):
It has been a pleasant evening. I was almost able
to forget for good night.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
She was gone just like that. At least I knew
now who she was, whether I'd be able to find
her again in London, whether I'd frightened her away, and
whether I chanced at that string of pearls by letting
her know that I knew she was a princess. All
these things I was a little nervous about till next day,
just I was getting ready to disembark in Southampton, Lady
(16:43):
Barbara came up to me rather quickly.
Speaker 5 (16:46):
Mister Lyne here from I read it.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Please, After the last time, I've been worried if you
I just possibly have said.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Something that you know I might have offended your friend,
Miss uh Jones off Were you a note?
Speaker 2 (17:01):
The notepaper bought a Crestor Colins with one sheet of
heavy paper folded once. There was no salutation. The note said,
as you said a catnall of the King, it might
be interesting and fun to experiment once more with your
other statement, for one about a princess. There was no signature,
but none was necessary.
Speaker 6 (17:22):
Do you feel better? She asked me to tell you
that we would be stopping at the Carlton. We'd hope
to see you then.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
So she had arranged that we should meet again. I've
only met again away from the dangerous confines of an
ocean liner. I proposed to relieve her lovely neck because
of lovely pearls. I'm sure I was on a holiday
and Santam I was involved with. These were factors that
had to be disregarded. My scheme was foolproof. As it
turned out, the scheme wasn't needed the first time I
(17:54):
saw her in the sitting room of the Carlton. Sweet mister, n.
Speaker 6 (17:59):
All of it, ari, you have already done me one favor.
Speaker 5 (18:03):
I hate to ask if.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
I told you imate your service, missus Jones.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
No, no call me, I flee. If you want me highly,
I should be Oh no no, don't leave bout still
with us.
Speaker 6 (18:13):
You know the favor I have to ask a very anyway.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
He started to say anything short of murder.
Speaker 6 (18:20):
No, no, it's nothing like that. First listen on shipboard.
You remember I told you I want to meet my husband.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
If you said yes, if this is.
Speaker 6 (18:29):
The if years ago are when you read Army was
driving to East Germany, we had to flee. Asked me
what was valuable that we had jewels and gold plated
pitiful collection of Ali but all we had, he heeded himself.
Speaker 5 (18:43):
Yeah, noe, you were. It's trusted in those days. No one.
Then a few weeks.
Speaker 6 (18:48):
Ago we planned to get it back. It would cost
us a lot of renew bribes, the purchase of a plane,
fee for the pilot, more bribes, and always more bribes
closer to fly in the heldics time. Don't you himself
mad and dangerous idea, I think, sir, But you refuse
to tell anyone else where his cash I was, he
could not trust anyone. I went to America to raise
(19:11):
some funds with me. Lady Barbara has been good enough
to lend us more, but just today I have.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Learned it even more reson more money.
Speaker 6 (19:20):
Mischief lyon say no quickly if you cannot do me
this favor. But I have exhausted all my other resources.
If you knew how much it costs to bribe these
suspicios over.
Speaker 5 (19:31):
You need, Oh, you will do it.
Speaker 6 (19:32):
It's just alone. Mind your pressure. Lady Barbo's investment will
join her. All we need as the first of the
next quarter, and then I can tell you how.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Much do you need?
Speaker 5 (19:43):
Ten thousand American dollars?
Speaker 3 (19:46):
It is too much, so no, no, certainly not, and see.
Speaker 6 (19:51):
For security, for security on your downer here you will
take this my firs. You have already once guarded them when.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
Oh please, sir, I wouldn't dream though.
Speaker 6 (20:02):
Yes I insist, otherwise I will not even ask you
for the loan of the ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Oh oh well, if you insist, now.
Speaker 5 (20:11):
How can we arrange the st the money?
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Well, I have more than that here in the hotel's
safe and American dollars. To just let me ring the desk,
I slip downstairs and the lift elevator to you, back
up again to my room and over to hers. I
handed a ten bills, She handed me the furs. We smiled,
shook hands in.

The deal, and I walked out of her room.

With a fortune in my pocket. Call for a celebration.

use it as a sort of message center, and I have
let her send me there. My fellow, I was all
