Old Time Radio from Boise,

2:28

And fill out our listener survey.
2:47
We're up to about 50, but
2:49
ideally, we'd like to have about
2:51
100. That's survey .greatdetectives .net. Well,
2:54
we're going to get into today's
2:56
story. This one
2:58
is interesting for a number
3:00
of reasons. The episode
3:02
we listened to last week
3:04
was the only episode of Sherlock
3:06
Holmes from the 1940 to
3:09
41 season. This is the
3:11
only episode from the 1941 to
3:13
42 season that I could find.
3:17
This is based on
3:19
the adventure of the
3:21
Red Circle. The
3:23
old -time radio logs and such
3:25
call it Mrs. Warren's Key,
3:27
but I don't see a basis
3:29
in these script
3:32
for or the recording itself for this
3:34
titling but it's a little bit different
3:36
than the red circle so we'll just
3:38
go ahead and go with that on
3:40
the titling. This
3:42
will be a
3:44
little interesting for several
3:46
reasons. This comes from
3:48
December 7th, 1941 which if
3:50
you know your history
3:52
is when the Japanese bombed
3:54
Pearl Harbor. What
3:57
makes this episode interesting
3:59
is, of course, Sherlock Holmes went on
4:02
the air. Usually
4:04
when something as catastrophic
4:06
as Pearl Harbor happens,
4:09
all programming just ends
4:11
up totally preempted. As
4:14
the news
4:16
goes into regurgitation
4:19
constantly, this,
4:21
however, was recorded before we
4:23
had the 24 -hour news cycle.
4:25
However, we did get a
4:27
very important piece of information.
4:29
So you kind of get
4:31
a picture of how news
4:33
gathering and news reporting worked
4:35
on the radio before the
4:37
24 -hour news cycle. So
4:39
a little bit of sociological
4:41
fun there as well. I
4:44
apologize. This is
4:46
not the best
4:48
recording out there. It's
4:51
listenable. prefer
4:53
better, but I think for the historic
4:55
value, you'll enjoy it. Before
4:58
we do get started, I do want to
5:00
remind you, as you make your plans
5:02
for the new year, if you're starting a
5:04
new business, you need a
5:06
website. And a great place
5:08
to get it is One and
5:10
One, the world's number one web host
5:13
with millions of customers around the
5:15
world. They are our hosts. We strongly
5:17
recommend them and we rely on
5:19
them each week to bring you the
5:21
great detectives of old time radio.

5:40

5:42
go ahead and get into today's episode.
5:44
Mrs. Warren's Key. This
5:47
is Sherlock Holmes, starring Basil Rathbone
5:50
as Nigel Bruce. The
5:55
makers of promo -quine -ine -cold tablets
5:57
bring you another adventure of Sherlock
5:59
Holmes with Basil Rathbone as Sherlock
6:01
Holmes of Nigel Bruce as Dr.
6:03
Watford. Friends, when you're the
6:05
victim of a cold, remember this. The
6:07
promo -quine -ine -cold tablets are made exclusively
6:09
to help relieve the usual distress
6:11
of cold. They're not a cure -all.
6:13
They make for one purpose, and one
6:16
purpose only. To help relieve the
6:18
common neighbors of a cold. The ache,
6:20
the pain, the fever, and
6:22
nasal stuffiness. That's why they do
6:24
such an effective job. Give yourself
6:26
the advantages of specialized medication. When
6:28
a cold attacks, take promo -plinus cold
6:30
tablets that's erected, and
6:33
only are collected. Now,
6:35
here we are again in our official
6:37
armchair in front of Dr. Watson's fireplace.
6:39
Waiting for the good doctor to, uh,
6:41
put down the new paper. Oh, thank
6:43
you. You're fine, Mr. Manning. I didn't
6:45
see you come in. I
6:47
was reading about your latest American
6:50
gang shooting. Yes, fine. Seems to
6:52
be riding high -wide and handsome in most of our
6:54
big cities, I'm afraid. What a pity
6:56
we haven't got Mr. Sherlock Holmes on the
6:58
job. It's just that I was thinking. Well, on
7:00
the other hand, these gangs of ricketyers sprung
7:02
up to steal a guy, but he wouldn't know
7:04
how to handle it. Rubbish. I can remember
7:06
just one case we handled back in 1994. It
7:09
was confirmed with Giorgiano, the worst
7:11
scoundrel in New York ever had.
7:13
He didn't call the fact appearing
7:16
in those days, but it amounted
7:18
to the same thing. Kidnapping, blackmailing,
7:20
bombing, terrorizing innocent people. By
7:22
joining the course of that secret case, Giorgiano
7:24
had one man taken for a ride, as
7:26
you would call it there. That sounds interesting.
7:28
Why not tell us about it? Well, a
7:31
bad story. I don't know if you remember.
7:33
It was in November of the
7:35
year 1894. Holmes and
7:37
I were sitting in our rooms in Baker Street. And
7:39
I thought you said this story was about the
7:41
head of a New York gang. No, sir, I didn't.
7:43
was funny, sir. I didn't want to interrupt. Even
7:45
famous gangsters have been known to several
7:47
of us from time to time. Well, as
7:49
I was saying, Holmes and
7:52
I were sitting in our rooms in
7:54
Baker Street. And I housekeeper, Mrs. Hudson, I
7:56
could be no friend of her. A
7:58
landlady who kept lodgings in great forms. Holmes
8:01
invited her to sit down. The
8:03
poor woman was obviously happy. instead
8:06
of fucking away with the
8:08
fringe of her case. This
8:21
is Huntington's house. We've been having some typically
8:23
for the lockdown. This is, uh... Warren!
8:26
Warren! Thank you very much. No,
8:28
no problem. We've been having a bit of a party on
8:30
heaven, and it was a lot of work easier
8:32
to do for. It's just that I don't
8:34
see him from one weekend to the other. Oh,
8:36
come out. That's how they see me. he about?
8:39
My best of this is one on a five -year larger that
8:41
was familiar cases when he wouldn't see me for weeks at the
8:43
time. My worst of would be the night to
8:45
know and do my speaking by day. Oh, no, don't,
8:47
don't. This is different. He
8:49
never goes out. Not even at night. I've
8:52
waited up to five hours. I'll never
8:54
see his face, not even when he pays his bill.
8:56
Not for five of him ever seen for the last
8:58
three weeks. And how do know he's still there? Like
9:00
he's trying to get away from something. Oh,
9:02
it's frightened me, Mr. Holmes. I can't sleep
9:04
for a fright. When did this lodge
9:06
at first come to you? Three weeks, that's what's
9:08
wise. Yes, Mr. Holmes, I think it's been fifty -fifty
9:10
months a week. If either the five
9:12
of you are on the dead room all complete night
9:14
at the top of the house. Yes, yes, indeed, don't.
9:16
Well, Mr. Holmes, he said to me, I'll pay five
9:18
pounds a week. I think that's not me on ten. He
9:21
took a ten -pound note out of his pocket then and
9:23
then, give it to me. He waits for them down. Then
9:26
he said we should have left him entirely to
9:28
himself and never for any excuse are we to disturb
9:30
him. No, he's just a lump and hasn't been out
9:32
since. Oh, yes he is, sir. What? But I
9:34
thought you said that he Just, just what it
9:36
was, sir, that first night. He
9:38
went out and returned very late. He was
9:40
all in bed, but I had him off and up the stairs. Then
9:43
his door shut and locked. I would
9:45
keep it locked. asking him, sir. But
9:47
his meal? How did he get his meal?
9:49
Well, when he rings, I take his tray up
9:51
and use it on the chair outside his door. Then
9:53
when he reads again, I go and put the
9:55
tray away empty. If he's watching anything else, he must
9:57
have gone and put it on the tray. I see.
9:59
Have you brought any of those VISTA people with you?
10:01
Yes, yes, I have. There's just
10:03
been three. Here they are. But
10:07
today, most interesting,
10:10
written with a broad point of file, it's
10:12
just pencil and switches. The
10:15
messages are quite the comic, my dear Watson. So,
10:18
very good rep and match. They
10:20
open up a very pleasing
10:22
field of intelligence extolation. The
10:26
gentleman
10:29
doesn't
10:32
wish to dismiss his warrant, but Jane and Pamphlet
10:34
is handwriting it. And here, look, look, on
10:36
this, they've asked him to stop, but Conor has
10:39
been thrown away. So there's evidence of the
10:41
mark, perhaps a suspect, that might give
10:43
a throat to man's identity. Furthermore, the person is
10:45
undesirably a foreigner. How do you
10:47
reduce that? Very right match, not
10:49
matches. You must look the wear out of addiction,
10:51
will you? The statement is singular, of course. Now,
10:54
Mrs. Warren, what's your lotter look
10:56
like when you get to take a look? Uh,
10:58
don't yes, he was, Mr. L. He's
11:00
not overstepping. please. Middle -sized, dark,
11:02
and he had a beard. So, English? Yes, sir,
11:04
he spoke English well enough, but with an
11:06
accent to the father. Uh -huh. What did I
11:08
tell you? What did I tell you? Did you
11:10
give his name? No, sir. You had any letters
11:12
or collars? No, sir. Where did he
11:15
retire when you were the girl going to do
11:17
his morning? We don't know,
11:19
instance. Why, yes, there's
11:21
a thing. And you say nothing has
11:23
come out of that room? Absolutely nothing. Just two
11:25
burnt matches in the cigarette end. They were on
11:27
the tray this morning. You brought them with you?
11:29
Oh, well, I did, sir. This is what they
11:31
told me about. You said nothing was too small
11:33
to take notice of. Well, this husband was right.
11:36
Very easy. Hmm. These
11:38
matches were used to light cigarettes. They
11:41
are going to tell us the matches
11:43
were used. Quite obvious, my dear. Nothing quite obvious.
11:45
The source was to the front end. least
11:48
half a match is assumed and lighting a pipe
11:50
or a cigar. Hello. Hello. Well, well, well. This
11:52
cigarette is certainly remarkable. Yes,
11:55
this is Warren. The gentleman who is
11:57
now living in your room is not the gentleman
11:59
who engaged them. No, no, no, no. You
12:01
can't tell us that. You can think that
12:03
for the cigarette. What up? A elementary, my dear.
12:05
What an elementary. That is the
12:07
size of the thing. I believe you took the
12:09
first gentleman of the beard, Mrs. Warren. Yes,
12:12
sir. A brass beard, it was. And a flowing
12:14
style. Yes, yes. Now, thanks for the cigarette.
12:16
Only a clean shape of man could have slowed him
12:18
down this far. Why wasn't he? Even that was the
12:20
new call in the start. The start would have been
12:22
finished. Sir, sir, sir, sir, sir. Perhaps
12:24
he used a holder. Impossible, my
12:26
dear fellow. Notice the way
12:29
that it's matted at the end. No, no,
12:31
it's, um, the different person in
12:33
Charlie. How could he have got in? Well, he
12:35
went out the first night, Mrs. Warren tells
12:37
her. But did the same man return? I think
12:39
not. I think it was the second
12:41
chap who came back. The one for whom
12:43
the first man took the loan. Perhaps they both returned.
12:46
Possibly, sir, there are too many
12:48
in those rooms. Excellent. My dear, what's an excellent? You're
12:50
coming along. Not
12:53
so many, Mrs. Warren. How
12:55
much does the solution? Could
12:57
it be enough to two? Oh, no, sir. It's so
12:59
little. I haven't one. They can keep life in one.
13:02
No, that's not a fair. Oh? No,
13:04
Mrs. Warren, there seems to be nothing more to be
13:06
done for the moment. I hardly think the situation is
13:08
dangerous, at least not for the present. But
13:10
keep it informed when you serve the develop.
13:12
Oh, thank you, Mr. Holmes, sir. I
13:14
believe you're my man already. Thank
13:16
you sir. Thank you. Have a good
13:18
day. Good day. Good day. Good
13:23
Good Good Good
13:26
day.
13:28
Good
13:30
day.
13:33
Good day. Good day. Good day. Good Good
13:35
day. Good day. Good day. Good
13:37
Good Good day. day. Good Good Good
13:39
day. Good Good day. day. Good
13:41
Good day. Good day. Look, the suit
13:43
of knowledge is watching this, my
13:45
great hobby. The suit of knowledge is a foot. It's
13:48
curious to know what it is. Plain
13:50
and doubt -related curious. Oh,
13:52
possibly watching, possibly. Education, the suit
13:54
of knowledge, curious then. They all
13:56
amount to the same thing. So where you going
13:58
to look for your education in this case? In the
14:00
daily business, my dear fellow, in the daily
14:02
business. The newspaper is
14:04
often a very storehouse of knowledge. I
14:19
say, home, every time I look at you, you
14:21
have your nose buried in a copy of the
14:23
Daily Gazette. Why in the
14:25
ponder for that yellow rag? The
14:28
Daily Gazette is the paper
14:30
of Mrs. Warren's mysterious larger house.
14:32
Remember? What can you discover
14:34
from a common newspaper? The
14:37
answer is nothing, nothing at all. Here it
14:39
is four days since we heard of that
14:41
mysterious gentleman, Mrs. Warrens. What
14:43
if you had nothing?
14:45
Absolutely nothing. We
14:49
interrupt the program to bring you
14:51
a special welcome from the NBC Newsroom
14:53
in New York. President Rostro will
14:55
address the joint session of Congress at
14:57
noon tomorrow. We'll turn you down
14:59
to the census of Sherlock Holmes. He's
15:08
in touch with it. Yes, sir, I know. Through
15:10
the papers, my dear fellows, through the agony columns. And
15:13
since Mrs. Warren's largely received
15:15
only one paper, the messages
15:17
must have gathered that. Okay. See
15:19
now, but how can you tell which note this is
15:21
the one we are after? By
15:23
elimination, what? By elimination. Take this
15:25
paper, for instance. The
15:27
edition which appeared two days after the large
15:30
justice of his residence was Mrs. Warren. The
15:32
agony columns, huh? Let's have
15:34
a look. Excuse
15:37
me. What a
15:39
collection of groans, cries,
15:42
and so on. Oh, perhaps my dear wasn't perhaps,
15:44
but nevertheless. An invaluable hunting
15:46
ground for these fetters after
15:49
education. Well, oh, go on.
15:51
The first one reads, Surely
15:53
Jimmy will not break his mother's
15:55
heart. Listen
15:58
to this. It's the lady
16:00
who fainted in the kitchen. Yes, disregard
16:02
that. The lady doesn't interest me. There's another.
16:05
Every day, My heart
16:07
loathe bleach watts, an
16:09
unmitigated bleach go on,
16:11
please. Be patient. We'll
16:13
find some means of
16:15
communication. Meanwhile, what's it called?
16:18
It's signed G. That's
16:20
not long, right? Are there any others?
16:22
Yes. Three days later, we picked up the
16:24
pill again. Here it is. Yeah, that
16:27
one. And making a successful arrangement. Patience
16:29
included. The clouds
16:31
will pop again. Yes,
16:33
nothing to prove he's after that. Then come something
16:36
more definite. Yeah. The
16:38
clouds be clearing if
16:40
I find a chance to
16:42
signal a member code. A1B2
16:46
and so on. We'll hear soon.
16:48
Oh, what's wrong, Chief? Let's go. Things
16:51
are warming up. Oh,
16:53
well, see who that is. Well, it wasn't me. Well,
17:02
well, well, what do you think? think? Well,
17:04
Well, Well, Well, do you think? Well, well,
17:07
well, what do think? Well, well, well,
17:10
do think? Well, well,
17:14
well, well, think? Well, well,
17:21
well, well, what think? Well, do
17:23
think? Well, well,
17:25
what do think? Well, well I read
17:27
how the lights don't make any sense
17:29
at all. Second window left after dusk.
17:31
Gee. Haha. That's definite enough, Watson. That's
17:33
definite enough. Hello, hello, what's
17:35
that? Look out of the window, will you, Watson? We
17:40
all said it was. I said it.
17:42
She must be excited. Her hat fell the
17:44
side of her head and she's popping
17:46
like a steam engine. Ah. This
17:49
has happened. This has never happened. Yeah,
17:51
something has happened. We
17:53
weren't there. Come
17:57
in, come in. Ah,
17:59
Mrs. London, what's up? Oh, Mr. Holmes, sir, I've come
18:01
to test the back door. Well, here, sir, take a
18:03
chair and get your breath. Oh. No, wait a minute,
18:05
wait a minute, sit down. Better, better, better. Now then,
18:07
what's happening? If the police not assess what it is,
18:09
I'll have no more of it, and I won't. I'll
18:11
cast him on back and baby gum at the end
18:13
of my patients, I am, when it comes to knocking
18:15
my old man apart. Oh, this is what about? treat
18:18
you rough anyway. Who did that? Well, that's what we
18:20
want to know. It was around eleven this morning, there
18:22
was a fog, you remember? Well, I
18:24
did have to walk around to get Mr. Mayan for
18:26
the stew to have for lunch. Well,
18:28
he said he got some more than 10 cases down the
18:30
road, when two men come up behind him through a coat
18:32
of braised head and bundled him to a tent that was
18:34
standing beside the curb. Well, you've
18:36
across one the clock and you don't come
18:38
back, and there are Mayan men still left
18:40
waiting for the onions. Well, at four o 'clock
18:42
it's about the stew anyhow, and you know
18:44
what a stew is lost without anyone. This
18:46
is like tea without bread. Tea
18:50
without bread is better than bread
18:52
bread. Go on. Go
18:56
Go Go Go Go Go on.
18:58
Go on. Go
19:01
on. I
19:15
don't like no one but Sofa, Molen and
19:17
Gronan. Gee, no sense at all. Have
19:20
you heard the appearance of the man? Did
19:22
he hear them talk? No, no, Mr. Roan between
19:24
days. He just knows he was lifted up
19:26
as if by magic and then dropped again. Mr.
19:28
Molen, yes, sir, that's right. And you connect
19:30
this to sex with your mother? No, sir, we've
19:32
been living there 15 years now and know
19:34
that happiness never came before. I've had enough of
19:36
it. Money's not everything. I'll have him out
19:38
of house before they... Now, wait a minute. Wait a
19:40
minute, Mr. Molen. Wait a minute. Sofa, Molen, you're right. Matters
19:42
are coming. More and more interesting. It's clear
19:44
that these members took your husband to your lodger, and
19:46
they had his hug this morning, and when they discovered
19:49
they were safe to release him. Thanks for what we
19:51
must have did, Donny Villa! Wait a minute. The important
19:53
thing is that your lodger's enemies have found him. They're
19:55
on his tracks. They'll be back. I suggest you return
19:57
to your home at once, before anything serious has a
19:59
chance to happen. In
20:12
just a moment, we'll rejoin Sherlock Holmes
20:14
as he endeavors to solve the mystery
20:16
of Mrs. Wallin's locker. Ladies
20:18
and gentlemen, in every American city, town,
20:20
or village, you'll find a group of people
20:22
who are worthy of the highest praise.
20:24
The American druggist, men and women who are
20:26
always on the job to serve on
20:28
each day and night. This evening, we have
20:30
a very welcome guest, a druggist from
20:32
the city of the famous Mardi Gras, Telephone
20:34
New Orleans, Mr. Wally Schweikart
20:36
of the Shaper and Schweikart Pharmacy
20:39
at Carlton and Genetics. Now,
20:41
here's what happened the other day when a friend
20:43
of mine visited this place. They
20:45
bring Schweikauer Pharmacy. Schweikauer
20:48
Pharmacy certainly have a fine modern drug
20:50
store. How long you been serving this neighborhood?
20:52
About 25 years. Well, good. It's a
20:54
long time. Say, what were those big
20:56
buildings I just passed on the way out? Why,
20:59
the famous Tooling and Laoli University. And
21:01
we're proud to have some of the
21:03
students among our best customers. And I
21:05
suppose you have an occasional professor stopping
21:07
in too, huh? Yes, we do, but
21:09
college students and professors buy medicines just
21:11
like anyone else, and that brings up
21:13
a question I'd like to ask. What
21:15
do most of your customers buy when
21:17
they want to relieve the usual symptoms of
21:19
cold? Gromo quinine cold samples
21:22
by a big mornin'. We recommend
21:24
them, and both Mr. Schaff and I
21:26
have used them to help relieve
21:28
the common miseries of our own cold.
21:31
That's just the way it happened, isn't it,
21:33
Mr. Schweikach? Yes, that's right. It's been
21:35
a pleasure to have you with us, Mr.
21:37
Schweikach. And your statement bears out the
21:39
results of a Coast to Coast survey conducted
21:41
by one of America's leading research organizations,
21:44
and taken among over 2 ,000 American druggers
21:46
just like yourself. It was found at more
21:48
than 87%. That's about nine out of
21:50
every 10 druggers. I recommend Bromo quinine cold
21:52
tablets as an effective aid in the
21:54
relief of the usual cold symptoms. And
21:56
in addition, the majority of these
21:59
druggers said the Bromo quinine cold tablets
22:01
with a larger -selling tablet made exclusively
22:03
for the common distress of cold. Friends,
22:06
when you have the usual symptoms
22:08
of cold, get the preparation your
22:10
drug is probably recommended. Time -proven
22:12
bromoquine and cold tablets can take
22:14
only as directed. Bromo,
22:16
B -R -O -M -O, quinine,
22:19
U -U -I -M -I -M
22:21
-E, bromoquine and cold
22:23
tablets. Very
22:41
tidy, very tidy indeed. Touched,
22:43
curtain, polished, door -knocked. I'm in a bit, Mr.
22:45
Holmes. I will wrap it for you. Those windows
22:47
on the top floor with the lamp is
22:49
lit. Those are the larger rooms, I take it?
22:51
Yes, sir. Oh, here's the key. It's kept
22:53
inside a little number bag. Will
22:58
you come in, gentlemen? Holmes?
23:00
Oh, the door's open. Come on, come
23:02
on in. Okay. Why
23:05
you staring at that house across the street? You see
23:07
it, Watson? You see it? Of course I see it,
23:09
you know. Fine. I read the
23:11
house with white stone taping. But it
23:13
took a cost. A message? Yes.
23:17
What's the matter? I'm doubly the signal's
23:19
taping. Notice that the left sign on
23:21
the window? An ideal spot, my dear fellow. An ideal
23:23
spot. And if they were supposed to be gone inside,
23:25
they'd keep Mrs. Warren waiting. Right, Watson. In fact, it
23:27
was usual. No,
23:30
Mrs. Warren, not now. I don't
23:33
roughly know, sir. Well, if you think like
23:35
it, look at this mysterious logic of yours. So
23:37
how are you going to manage that if
23:39
he keeps the door locked? When do
23:41
you take this next tray up to when this
23:43
is going to ready? Usually I do see around
23:45
4 'clock. Oh, 30 a .m. Don't miss that now. Do
23:48
you have any chance to turn another
23:50
room to the door opening onto the counter?
23:52
I don't know about that either. Oh,
23:54
wait, wait a second. There's a
23:56
cupboard. A big cupboard almost
23:58
up at the door here. Excellent, excellent. What
24:00
do you and I will keep ourselves
24:02
in that cupboard one it -one? .15 p .m.?
24:04
trade. Very good. Well, I'd have to withdraw
24:06
away. If it's the top floor, I'll
24:08
just help you fix it. The cupboard door
24:10
is the first one to the right.
24:12
Good, good. Thank you. Come
24:14
on, watch me. Is
24:16
that good? Do you think
24:18
it's nice? I like it. What? Do you
24:20
think Mrs. Krupple, the spring -first class detective,
24:23
No, prop up the stairs? They keep that a rustle,
24:25
then. I don't no, know what what do you doing.
24:27
I'm leaving my shoes. I'm going to
24:29
set a color light down for you. That way you
24:32
would like to a chance to be undetected. I really
24:34
will, but I to. You're a criminal do that. I
24:37
can't get my shoes undone. Don't
24:39
forget to take a break if you
24:41
can't take it all off. don't
24:43
right, can't right. There There
24:45
are. are. Come on, come on. Come
24:48
on out, be quiet. You sound like a
24:50
to charge of a life today. I'm not making
24:52
any more than you are. Come on out. I'll
24:55
cut up your... Here,
24:58
yes. you go. Huh?
25:01
I thought you said it was large poke of
25:03
paint, please. What? there's
25:05
door. Oh, it's a big boob
25:07
over there. You
25:09
have can't do the best thing,
25:11
could she do like this? Oh,
25:13
there's the door. rascal. Oh,
25:16
the door. Ah, here comes the door.
25:18
Ah, here the door. Ah, here comes I
25:20
can grab it? door. door. here
25:22
she is. Oh,
25:26
yes, comes yes, door. Ah,
25:29
here Sit just
25:31
some chair. It's
25:33
away. Ah, That's
25:36
the door now. Slowly,
25:41
slowly, and a
25:43
big bite under. will I
25:45
dare. What is Holmes? What
25:48
happened? Something I not foresee. I want to be
25:50
quickly once and for all except... Who was
25:52
it? Who opened door? Remembered I didn't. The substitution
25:54
at large is what's in here. What I did
25:56
not foresee was that we find a woman. A
25:58
no -borderly woman, what? No, no, of course not.
26:00
That young handsome with a face that's with
26:02
terror. Terror? Do you think she saw that? I
26:05
think she suspected up to here. Well, what would
26:07
you know? When we put on our shoes, they
26:09
went to stand the next few minutes on
26:11
the front door. That's why. We're not going to
26:13
make it so that she would communicate with the
26:15
lady at dusk today. She's an eye
26:17
on the window opposite. Yes, but there's two of them at
26:19
dark now. Come along. Oh,
26:36
oh,
26:38
oh, oh,
26:41
oh,
26:43
oh, oh,
26:46
oh,
26:48
oh, oh,
26:51
oh,
26:53
oh, oh,
26:56
oh,
26:58
oh, oh,
27:01
oh,
27:03
oh. T,
27:07
that is a T, 80, F.
27:11
Another T, so
27:13
that means the
27:15
word. Now E, and
27:18
then N, along
27:21
when we start, it's
27:23
another T. Then
27:25
A, it's not
27:27
important, really, that's not all. F,
27:30
10, 10, at 10
27:32
tonight. Why break what? I
27:34
had it. I had it? Yeah, yeah, there's the
27:36
wish one. That goes again. Why do you got
27:38
a wish like that? I got to talk to
27:41
you with it. The same message over again. There
27:43
it is, Watson. A tenter.
27:45
That's the encyclopedia. Not a very encyclopedia
27:47
Watson. It's Italian. A tenter means
27:49
to wear. It must be written. Very
27:51
good. Still the same message. A
27:53
tenter. Hello? You've
27:56
opened up. The light's gone out. Someone's
27:59
broken the window. What's
28:01
that? Quick, Watson! We need to get in
28:03
there. Something violent is happening. The
28:15
door's unlocked open. Come on, Ben. Get
28:17
of all by handy. You
28:20
can't touch your feet. Here,
28:23
up the stairs. Hello?
28:29
There's a camp where he got it. was
28:31
warm. Got him at the bottom. Let's
28:34
get her. Let's look around a
28:36
bit. Oh,
28:38
so quiet. Oh, it's okay,
28:40
man. Where could he have gone? There's
28:43
a broken window. And
28:45
here, look. Look here, Watson. Blood. A trail
28:47
of blood. Some heavy objects have been dragged
28:49
along the floor. You need to
28:51
just cover the door. Open it, Watson. Is it open? Oh,
28:54
it's open. Oh, look.
28:58
Look on the floor, a man
29:00
is on his back. and with blood.
29:03
Look, knife. A knife sticking straight
29:05
up. Driven blade -deep into the body.
29:07
A terrific blow. Give me that candle.
29:09
Double -click. Yes. There.
29:12
Look the red circle on the
29:14
floor under head. A
29:16
halo black. What
29:18
What are you doing with that candle? Finishing
29:21
the message. I
29:24
think it will be helpful to
29:26
get the root of this red. great.
29:28
I must find out how he got there.
29:30
You this man? Didn't you recognize him? Naturally,
29:33
Watson. It's Black
29:35
Zohiano, the head of the
29:37
most terrible of criminals in America. What's your
29:39
Georgiano? Gene, what's your Zohiano? He And
29:41
it must be he who sent the message. What's he
29:43
doing over here in England? The question. He He must
29:46
answer the lady. He must across the priest. We
29:48
should be in a moment. I think
29:50
we should overcome. Yes,
29:52
he is. What
29:54
is this? I have a problem. Ah,
29:57
too! What is this? What have you
29:59
done with me? You must prepare yourself for
30:01
the last shock, man. My husband? What
30:03
has happened? What are you hiding from me?
30:06
Who is that on the floor? I beg of you, not you. Let
30:08
me see. Let me see. Hey! I
30:11
don't know. Do you know your
30:13
opinion? He's dead. Please, please
30:16
don't be so upset, madam. But he's
30:18
just wonderful. He's marvelous. What? You are
30:20
a policeman. You are a genius. Oh,
30:22
I'm so happy. You
30:25
are a genius. He was dead when we found
30:27
him. I know. The response I can
30:29
have was terrible. But wonderful,
30:31
Jenna. He has done it. He's perfect. He's
30:34
a genius man. He's a a genius. Just
30:38
now he said the message for me to call. Just now
30:40
he sent the final message. Your husband disappeared
30:42
out of the back window if I read the signs correctly.
30:44
There's a fire in the wind. Oh my
30:46
husband, he did it to protect himself. He
30:49
saved me. No one could have blamed
30:51
him. He could not have left him
30:53
for that. No. Now
30:55
that your general is dead, we fear
30:57
nothing. We have to leave. Perhaps you'd
30:59
like to tell us about it. I may
31:01
be able to arrange matters for Scuff and Yard. General
31:04
is my husband. He's
31:06
not a looker. My
31:10
husband and I will live in New York. But
31:12
I have to enter my geno's brother who needs
31:15
the show channel. There is
31:17
no judge in the
31:19
world who would punish my
31:21
husband because stupid. Yes, I
31:23
understand. He had rather an unfavorite character. He was
31:25
a king. He made the young
31:27
Italian man join him in success. And
31:29
our brother was one of his hands. He
31:31
cannot break away from up to the
31:34
most critical stage. And then
31:36
one night he said, no, he
31:38
was shocked and shocked in the back
31:40
of his head. But of course, when he
31:42
heard the quiet box, after that this
31:44
young gentleman who said, my husband must join
31:46
his gang. He was going to
31:48
make love to me. He was
31:50
terrified. He said, so
31:52
afraid. He ran away. Yes. One
31:55
night we go on the boat for England. But
31:57
we know young gentleman will follow us. When
31:59
we find out, my genie will hide
32:01
me where I will be safe. Who
32:03
knows your general will have come, and
32:05
he waits for him outside, the
32:08
night he arrives at last. But
32:10
my general is ready. He
32:13
is prepared to kill
32:15
him, or he is
32:17
a hero like him. I don't
32:19
know what the British point of view will be,
32:21
but I imagine that in New York, if there
32:23
is a husband who will receive a pretty general,
32:25
he'll go to France. Oh, I think you're going
32:27
to reign as the British point of view, wasn't
32:29
it? Scotland Yard has been on the lookout for
32:31
this, short general. You can stay here and
32:33
get landed. Mr. Lucas has just taken a
32:35
little bit of work, that's all. And now let's just
32:37
look out. If you'll come with me, I believe we
32:39
can arrange that as a specialist. Well, that's
32:44
been an interesting case, Holmes, but I still
32:46
can't for the last let's see what you expect
32:48
to get out of it. Education Watson, a
32:50
little more education. All this seeking knowledge of the
32:52
old universe it is. In
33:03
just a moment, Dr. Watson will be
33:05
back to tell us about next week's story.
33:07
Ladies and gentlemen, when colds are prevalent
33:09
act wise. We don't neglect the cold, reps,
33:11
and avoid exposure. Remember, if neglected, even
33:14
a so -called light cold may lead to
33:16
more serious illness. But if a cold attacks
33:18
with its headache, pain, nasal distress, and
33:20
fever, they promo -cliner and cold
33:22
gather. They go right to work to
33:24
help relieve the usual miseries of
33:26
a cold. They specialize medication and they
33:28
work internally. They bring prompt relief,
33:30
grateful relief. And they are time proven.
33:32
They're known and sold everywhere to
33:35
help relieve the common discomfort of cold.
33:37
Yes, you can take them with confidence. So
33:40
when you have the usual symptoms of
33:42
a cold, get busy and take bromoclineine
33:44
cold tablet. Use only as directed and
33:46
be sure to get the real thing.
33:48
Look for the letters L, B, C,
33:50
U on the tablet. And always ask for
33:52
them by name. Bromo, B, R, O,
33:54
M, O. Clineine, T, U,
33:56
I, N, I, N, E. Bromoclineine
33:59
cold tablet. Now, Dr.
34:01
Watson, what about me? Well, next week, I think I'll
34:03
tell you an adventure that took me on a
34:05
wild goose chase halfway across the continent of Europe. A
34:08
taste which home falls
34:10
by opening a coffin. We
34:18
have been looking to a Sherlock Holmes
34:20
adventure, adapted from Sir Arthur Goldman Doyle's story,
34:22
the adventure of the Red Circle, where
34:24
the battle that's going to Sherlock Holmes and
34:26
Nigel Bruce is, Dr. Watson. This
34:30
program is presented from

the most enjoyable thing
35:10
in the world to watch
35:13
Sherlock Holmes do And
35:15
you know I've heard I've
35:17
heard a lot of
35:19
And seen a lot of
35:21
people try to emphasize
35:24
different things about Holmes, but
35:26
the best thing to
35:28
me is to see him
35:30
work, to start pulling
35:32
these facts that are obvious
35:35
to him, but to
35:37
no one else. It's
35:39
a pleasure to
35:41
listen to. And
35:45
this episode had plenty of that. The
35:48
other thing that I found
35:50
interesting was the news bulletin.
35:52
You notice that news bulletin
35:54
came in the middle, announced
35:57
President Roosevelt was addressing Congress.
35:59
And I believe this episode
36:01
was transcribed. So, you know,
36:03
they just basically went right
36:05
back to where they had
36:07
been in the script. You
36:09
didn't miss anything. It was
36:11
like I had to be
36:13
no more than 20 second.
36:16
I noticed that President Roosevelt
36:18
was going to speak to
36:20
Congress. You know, I have
36:22
to wonder how those poor people in the
36:24
1940s survived. How could they
36:26
understand what was going on
36:28
if the news anchor didn't, first
36:30
of all, explain everything
36:32
that they already knew and
36:34
had seen and heard beforehand
36:36
about what happened on Pearl
36:38
Harbor and then bring in
36:40
a Democrat and a Republican
36:43
to discuss what the president
36:45
was going to say and
36:47
what he would need to
36:49
say in his speech. How
36:51
could they do that? I
36:53
mean an announcement like this
36:55
would take five minutes and
36:57
on a 24 hour news
36:59
station it would take you
37:02
know they would take I
37:04
don't know 15 minutes to
37:06
go over this. I
37:08
think that they did have
37:10
a better idea when we were
37:12
in the pre 24
37:15
-hour new new segment. We
37:17
got to know what's
37:19
going on But we don't
37:21
need to know it
37:23
to death, but all right.
37:25
Well, that's my little
37:27
observation based on that I
37:29
got any comments, please
