Speaker 4 (04:09):
Oh that daughter?
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Just take a puget just a minute, let me out
of here.
Speaker 6 (04:12):
Oh yeah, don't, brother, I want that stake and carry
get that. I'm trying to run away with that payroll
sixty years, going to get a silver air from this flacking.
Speaker 9 (04:27):
That's what you get.
Speaker 7 (04:27):
Top up and trying to put the cuffs on a slacker.
Speaker 6 (04:34):
I tell your crass and that guy by a complete
monkey out of me in the entire part. Yeah, so
I have adjusted.
Speaker 10 (04:40):
Have you uncovered any trace of.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Him at all?
Speaker 6 (04:42):
Oh, Margo, And I'm honest enough to say that, I
don't expect to you.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
You mean you're admitting the seat.
Speaker 6 (04:47):
No, but I've had dealings in the past with Slager Rebbons.
I spent almost five years trying to catch him up.
Last time. I need to see him break out again. Yeah,
well to what you attribute his elusive powers to make sense?
And he's smart.
Speaker 9 (05:01):
Funny's smart.
Speaker 6 (05:02):
I got it from his background that he came from.
I have a decent family, even out of college as
a cake. Does that qualify him to be a massive criminal?
Speaker 5 (05:10):
But it helps?
Speaker 4 (05:11):
The hell?
Speaker 6 (05:12):
Is him a greater field to work in? The guy
can't get in any place? Is there one job in
a silk hat and sales the next? And overall one
victim will describe him as a mug the next to
the high toned gentleman. But why is he so difficult.
Speaker 9 (05:25):
Attach to me?
Speaker 6 (05:26):
Well? First because he always works alone, Yes, I've noticed that.
And second, whenever the boy makes a good score and
makes five or six big holes in a row, he disappears.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
You mean he just retired, Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 6 (05:38):
And when it was a door runs out, why he
starts operating again.
Speaker 7 (05:41):
That's a good system for me. How much did he
get on his recent ram page?
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Too much?
Speaker 6 (05:47):
That's why I don't think I'll of a final. His
last jobs have brought him over four hundred thousand dollars
all in cans. Well, that's enough to retire for life.
Speaker 4 (05:56):
Even for a guy like Slider.
Speaker 6 (05:58):
Ever make your wesson speaking Yes, yes, uh brother, there
is it the writ? Uh see, Yeah, I'd be glad
to come on just give me a dress. Grand thanks
right away.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
Goodbye.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
Hey, maybe I'm getting a break and I don't that
phone just told me he was slighter Evans brother. Yes,
he just came in this morning from the West Indies,
so that he'd hurt his brother escaped him, that he
had some information about him that might help me to
find him. Wherever we are we waiting for a command commissioner,
perhaps mister Slash or Evans business that used.
Speaker 7 (06:36):
To the two things.
Speaker 6 (06:41):
Perhaps you all think it unusual for the man should
be willing to give information that might result me in
prison into the jons other But well, I have very
good reasons to do so. Why my brother has always
hated all member and just as long as he is
out of prison, our futures and backed out very lives.
Speaker 4 (06:59):
How did you learn your brother's escape cos.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
Oh, I was at my home in Senator I heard
it on a radio broadcast. Is the family named Coston
or Cambon the Evans is an alien as well? Just
for is this information you have for it, mister Carson. Well,
it's probably a shot in the dark. But I have
an idea where my brother might be hiding.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
Well in a small.
Speaker 6 (07:22):
Town in Louisiana.
Speaker 5 (07:23):
Oh what a he be doing down there?
Speaker 6 (07:24):
But you see, when we were children, we had a
nursery of a Creole.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
Which she was very fond of my brother.
Speaker 6 (07:30):
After we blew up, she returned to a Louisiana home.
So I know for certain that in the past my
brother has found refuws there. I think if you were
to send one of your men down their commissioner, you
might turn up to me. Well, that isn't exactly a
red hot believe mister Carson, I.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Disagree with you.
Speaker 5 (07:47):
Then I think it's a very excellent leader.
Speaker 6 (07:49):
Well, in fact, if you'd always the send a detective,
I'd be willing to investigate it myself.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
Okay, okay, grant.
Speaker 6 (07:57):
I think I should warn you, mister Cranston, if you
do encounter my brother, be extremely careful when he's cornered.
He displays a talent with a knife that has done
in the mist pleasure.
Speaker 5 (08:10):
Oh thankful.
Speaker 6 (08:13):
I might also add that none of us in the
family would grief.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
He brought back the word that my brother would.
Speaker 6 (08:31):
That must be the house of Mondola. The month you
think then live that place? How missus Labart the nurse
maid does According to the man of the visit.
Speaker 7 (08:40):
Should we walk across the yard or swim?
Speaker 4 (08:44):

Speaker 7 (08:46):

That's possible, am I think it's time for the Shadow
to enter this case, Mordle, to trace our friend the
slasher to his hideout.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
You see, so we thought the best place to get
our information would be from the.
Speaker 5 (11:47):
Chief of police.
Speaker 6 (11:47):
Yes, of course, who is it you seaking?
Speaker 5 (11:50):
What's his name? His name is a Meal?

we have many a Meals in the parish.
Speaker 4 (11:57):

Come on, maggo.
Speaker 6 (20:20):
He's not getting away killing. It's running along the bank
of the river. You might as walking about piker.
Speaker 4 (20:25):
You're not telling along the.
Speaker 5 (20:28):
Quickly.
Speaker 6 (20:30):
Don't come play your game, sicker, he get me, come money,
clean the guns his heads.
Speaker 9 (20:35):
He's sicker, sicker.
Speaker 6 (20:39):
Oh, it was his only way out, Musco. His body's
falling into the river. So I guess how job is done.
Speaker 4 (20:48):
That's the end of Strasher Ribbon.
Speaker 5 (20:53):
I'm very glass to his plans making.
Speaker 6 (20:55):
The Westons are coming here to my apartment with no
information about Slasher Ebbins.
Speaker 5 (21:01):
He's in the marble here. If you made so, we
all boys wait again.
Speaker 6 (21:05):
I hope he's not too tiredy committner. I'm very anxious
to hear more about his encounter with my brother.
Speaker 7 (21:09):
Well, I'll let Lamar tell you that when you're wrong.
Speaker 5 (21:12):
But you're sure that he's dead.
Speaker 11 (21:13):
Oh, yeah.
Speaker 6 (21:14):
Oh do you hear that, Commisser. I guess that's proof
enough that you've heard the last of flash revns.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
What was this shadow?
Speaker 4 (21:22):
Yes?
Speaker 6 (21:23):
Why why are you here? I am here, Commissioner, to
contradict a statement that was just made by that young woman.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
What do you mean?
Speaker 6 (21:30):
I mean that Slasher Evans is not dead, not dead,
He is very much alive. What.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
Yes, he's in this city.
Speaker 6 (21:37):
In fact, Commissioner, he's in this very room.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Who is buy?
Speaker 6 (21:43):
Where is his boys coming from? I am the shadow,
mister Coffon, and I'm quite sure that you've heard of me.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
Oh, I'm your fellow criminals. What are you driving at? Shadow?
Speaker 6 (21:53):
I'm trying to tell you, Commissioner, that this man is
Slasher out of set? Who is six?
Speaker 5 (21:57):
You not at all, mister Coffon, or I should a Slasher.
Speaker 6 (22:01):
I've investigated you quite thoroughly, and I learned some very
interesting facts. Were they I've been in touch with the
authorities in Trinidad, mister Carton's residence, and they told me
that he had been away for five years had just
returned recently.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
That was the length of your stay in prison, wasn't it?
Speaker 4 (22:19):
Slasher?
Speaker 5 (22:20):
Don't be fool by this voice.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
Tell them I've also inquired into your financial background, and
I found that although you have no means of support,
no income, you still have lived lavishly. But why if
he is a slasher, that he sent us on his
own trail because.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
He wanted it that way.
Speaker 6 (22:39):
He left an easy trail leading to the slasher's hideout
so that someone could bring back definite proof that he
was dead.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
Yes, it could have been pom.
Speaker 6 (22:49):
You see, with a slasher, legally dead, John Carton can
live respectively for the rest of his life, or at
least until the money that he gained by his criminal
activities is gone. But how can you be here and
in Louisiana at the same time. It takes very little
time for a plane Luis Louisiana commissioner, And it took
very little theatrical makeup to change his face and fool
(23:11):
this young woman and her companion.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
You are pretty mine.
Speaker 6 (23:14):
I'm you mixed the shadow, but night quite smart enough.
Speaker 5 (23:18):
Take your hands off.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
It's the same.
Speaker 6 (23:20):
It's gonna be my hate in a hole. Say it's
gonna be my shield to I get out of him. No,
I'm not sat up a swag.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
You're not just type.
Speaker 4 (23:30):
Yeah, I think you know what that means.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
A long time ago to the Slesh, you're always used
as a slade when he's gone?
Speaker 10 (23:37):
Are you not using it on me?
Speaker 5 (23:39):
Just there?
Speaker 6 (23:40):
I usually just flash my picking face. But if you
don't do as I say, I'm gonna change my technique
for you and arry this slade your house.
Speaker 5 (23:50):
What happened to the Shadow where all is tough? Now?
Speaker 6 (23:54):
I thought he was jealous, and then I flesh, it's
nice he checked out of that picture tenure Shadow.
Speaker 9 (23:59):
Any I listened.
Speaker 5 (24:01):
To me like you listen to me getting out of here?
Speaker 6 (24:05):
See and if you make one move in my director,
whack this dame.

let's my head, let's go drop that like.
Speaker 9 (24:15):

Speaker 5 (24:16):
And my heart said my head.
Speaker 9 (24:18):
I no, oh the way he wanted it.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
Yes, Commissioner, and I think you can write a finish to.

failed in his third attempt.

Oh that daughter?
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Just take a puget just a minute, let me out
of here.
Speaker 6 (04:12):
Oh yeah, don't, brother, I want that stake and carry
get that. I'm trying to run away with that payroll
sixty years, going to get a silver air from this flacking.
Speaker 9 (04:27):
That's what you get.
Speaker 7 (04:27):
Top up and trying to put the cuffs on a slacker.
Speaker 6 (04:34):
I tell your crass and that guy by a complete
monkey out of me in the entire part. Yeah, so
I have adjusted.
Speaker 10 (04:40):
Have you uncovered any trace of.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Him at all?
Speaker 6 (04:42):
Oh, Margo, And I'm honest enough to say that, I
don't expect to you.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
You mean you're admitting the seat.
Speaker 6 (04:47):
No, but I've had dealings in the past with Slager Rebbons.
I spent almost five years trying to catch him up.
Last time. I need to see him break out again. Yeah,
well to what you attribute his elusive powers to make sense?
And he's smart.
Speaker 9 (05:01):
Funny's smart.
Speaker 6 (05:02):
I got it from his background that he came from.
I have a decent family, even out of college as
a cake. Does that qualify him to be a massive criminal?
Speaker 5 (05:10):
But it helps?
Speaker 4 (05:11):
The hell?
Speaker 6 (05:12):
Is him a greater field to work in? The guy
can't get in any place? Is there one job in
a silk hat and sales the next? And overall one
victim will describe him as a mug the next to
the high toned gentleman. But why is he so difficult.
Speaker 9 (05:25):
Attach to me?
Speaker 6 (05:26):
Well? First because he always works alone, Yes, I've noticed that.
And second, whenever the boy makes a good score and
makes five or six big holes in a row, he disappears.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
You mean he just retired, Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 6 (05:38):
And when it was a door runs out, why he
starts operating again.
Speaker 7 (05:41):
That's a good system for me. How much did he
get on his recent ram page?
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Too much?
Speaker 6 (05:47):
That's why I don't think I'll of a final. His
last jobs have brought him over four hundred thousand dollars
all in cans. Well, that's enough to retire for life.
Speaker 4 (05:56):
Even for a guy like Slider.
Speaker 6 (05:58):
Ever make your wesson speaking Yes, yes, uh brother, there
is it the writ? Uh see, Yeah, I'd be glad
to come on just give me a dress. Grand thanks
right away.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
Goodbye.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
Hey, maybe I'm getting a break and I don't that
phone just told me he was slighter Evans brother. Yes,
he just came in this morning from the West Indies,
so that he'd hurt his brother escaped him, that he
had some information about him that might help me to
find him. Wherever we are we waiting for a command commissioner,
perhaps mister Slash or Evans business that used.
Speaker 7 (06:36):
To the two things.
Speaker 6 (06:41):
Perhaps you all think it unusual for the man should
be willing to give information that might result me in
prison into the jons other But well, I have very
good reasons to do so. Why my brother has always
hated all member and just as long as he is
out of prison, our futures and backed out very lives.
Speaker 4 (06:59):
How did you learn your brother's escape cos.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
Oh, I was at my home in Senator I heard
it on a radio broadcast. Is the family named Coston
or Cambon the Evans is an alien as well? Just
for is this information you have for it, mister Carson. Well,
it's probably a shot in the dark. But I have
an idea where my brother might be hiding.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
Well in a small.
Speaker 6 (07:22):
Town in Louisiana.
Speaker 5 (07:23):
Oh what a he be doing down there?
Speaker 6 (07:24):
But you see, when we were children, we had a
nursery of a Creole.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
Which she was very fond of my brother.
Speaker 6 (07:30):
After we blew up, she returned to a Louisiana home.
So I know for certain that in the past my
brother has found refuws there. I think if you were
to send one of your men down their commissioner, you
might turn up to me. Well, that isn't exactly a
red hot believe mister Carson, I.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Disagree with you.
Speaker 5 (07:47):
Then I think it's a very excellent leader.
Speaker 6 (07:49):
Well, in fact, if you'd always the send a detective,
I'd be willing to investigate it myself.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
Okay, okay, grant.
Speaker 6 (07:57):
I think I should warn you, mister Cranston, if you
do encounter my brother, be extremely careful when he's cornered.
He displays a talent with a knife that has done
in the mist pleasure.
Speaker 5 (08:10):
Oh thankful.
Speaker 6 (08:13):
I might also add that none of us in the
family would grief.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
He brought back the word that my brother would.
Speaker 6 (08:31):
That must be the house of Mondola. The month you
think then live that place? How missus Labart the nurse
maid does According to the man of the visit.
Speaker 7 (08:40):
Should we walk across the yard or swim?
Speaker 4 (08:44):
I'm sorry I brought you out of weathers like.
Speaker 7 (08:46):
This, Marl, yeah the month.
Speaker 11 (08:50):
Do you really think we will find a glassy here?
Speaker 6 (08:53):
We might, but don't worry, Undel, I'm prepared for him.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Oh you better let missus let nowhere here?

Speaker 6 (11:26):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (11:27):
And that man a meal the snow where he's hiding.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
That's possible, am I think it's time for the Shadow
to enter this case, Mordle, to trace our friend the
slasher to his hideout.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
You see, so we thought the best place to get
our information would be from the.
Speaker 5 (11:47):
Chief of police.
Speaker 6 (11:47):
Yes, of course, who is it you seaking?
Speaker 5 (11:50):
What's his name? His name is a Meal?
Speaker 6 (11:52):
And his last name, i'm a said, we don't know it? Well,
we have many a Meals in the parish.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
If you don't know the last name, I don't think
it all. Perhaps a description would help, He wod, well,
he's sure.
Speaker 5 (12:03):
Have he set and has lost the pause?
Speaker 6 (12:06):

There's much trouble in a day, much trouble. How to
his accident several years ago? He would remember one of
the worst murderous gangs, the smugglers and memoranns that I've

Oh do you hear that, Commisser. I guess that's proof
enough that you've heard the last of flash revns.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
What was this shadow?
Speaker 4 (21:22):
Yes?
Speaker 6 (21:23):
Why why are you here? I am here, Commissioner, to
contradict a statement that was just made by that young woman.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
What do you mean?
Speaker 6 (21:30):
I mean that Slasher Evans is not dead, not dead,
He is very much alive. What.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
Yes, he's in this city.
Speaker 6 (21:37):
In fact, Commissioner, he's in this very room.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Who is buy?
Speaker 6 (21:43):
Where is his boys coming from? I am the shadow,
mister Coffon, and I'm quite sure that you've heard of me.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
Oh, I'm your fellow criminals. What are you driving at? Shadow?
Speaker 6 (21:53):
I'm trying to tell you, Commissioner, that this man is
Slasher out of set? Who is six?
Speaker 5 (21:57):
You not at all, mister Coffon, or I should a Slasher.
Speaker 6 (22:01):
I've investigated you quite thoroughly, and I learned some very
interesting facts. Were they I've been in touch with the
authorities in Trinidad, mister Carton's residence, and they told me
that he had been away for five years had just
returned recently.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
That was the length of your stay in prison, wasn't it?
Speaker 4 (22:19):
Slasher?
Speaker 5 (22:20):
Don't be fool by this voice.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
Tell them I've also inquired into your financial background, and
I found that although you have no means of support,
no income, you still have lived lavishly. But why if
he is a slasher, that he sent us on his
own trail because.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
He wanted it that way.
Speaker 6 (22:39):
He left an easy trail leading to the slasher's hideout
so that someone could bring back definite proof that he
was dead.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
Yes, it could have been pom.
Speaker 6 (22:49):
You see, with a slasher, legally dead, John Carton can
live respectively for the rest of his life, or at
least until the money that he gained by his criminal
activities is gone. But how can you be here and
in Louisiana at the same time. It takes very little
time for a plane Luis Louisiana commissioner, And it took
very little theatrical makeup to change his face and fool
(23:11):
this young woman and her companion.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
You are pretty mine.
Speaker 6 (23:14):
I'm you mixed the shadow, but night quite smart enough.

gonna be my shield to I get out of him. No,
I'm not sat up a swag.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
You're not just type.
Speaker 4 (23:30):
Yeah, I think you know what that means.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
A long time ago to the Slesh, you're always used
as a slade when he's gone?
Speaker 10 (23:37):

Speaker 5 (23:39):
Just there?

don't do as I say, I'm gonna change my technique
for you and arry this slade your house.
Speaker 5 (23:50):
What happened to the Shadow where all is tough? Now?
Speaker 6 (23:54):

nice he checked out of that picture tenure Shadow.
