<v Speaker 1>Petree Wine brings you Basil rough Boone and Nigel Bruce
<v Speaker 1>and the New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. The Petrie family,
<v Speaker 1>the family that took time to bring you good wine.
<v Speaker 1>Invite you to listen to doctor Watson tell us another
<v Speaker 1>of his fascinating stories about his old friend, that master
<v Speaker 1>Detective Sherlock Holmes.
<v Speaker 2>You know, we're really happy to be back with you
<v Speaker 2>once again, and we're.
<v Speaker 1>Looking forward to getting together at this time every week
<v Speaker 1>from here on out. And I hope you won't mind
<v Speaker 1>if every once in a while I sort of get
<v Speaker 1>a word in edgewise about Petrie wines, you know, and
<v Speaker 1>I really mean this. Petree wines are wonderful wines. For instance,
<v Speaker 1>right now, I wish I could give you a glass
<v Speaker 1>of Petrie California Port. You could pull that Petree Port
<v Speaker 1>up to the light and look at its clear, deep
<v Speaker 1>red color. You could smell that luscious grape aroma, and
<v Speaker 1>best of all, you could taste that Petrie.
<v Speaker 2>Boy, what a flavor.
<v Speaker 1>That Petreport just sort of rolls around on your tongue,
<v Speaker 1>and oh boy, is that ever good? Try pet Report
<v Speaker 1>after dinner some evening, or try it when some friends
<v Speaker 1>drop in you can serve it proudly, because after all,
<v Speaker 1>the name Petrie is the proudest name in the history
<v Speaker 1>of American wines. And now let's look in on our
<v Speaker 1>good friend, doctor Watson and see if he's expecting us.
<v Speaker 3>Come in, Come in with tobacco. Just man, I've been expected.
<v Speaker 2>How are you, doctor Watson. It's good to see you again.
<v Speaker 3>Thank you, my boy. They're nice see you again too.
<v Speaker 3>I've missed Monday night visits during the last three months.
<v Speaker 3>This is so done. Would you go to join me
<v Speaker 3>in an exhaust report?
<v Speaker 2>Thanks doctor, that'd be nice.
<v Speaker 1>You know it seems to me after our summer vacation,
<v Speaker 1>the toast of the great Sherlock Holmes would be in order.
<v Speaker 3>Here.
<v Speaker 2>I am thanks. You proposed the toast doctor to.
<v Speaker 4>Sherlock Holmes, master detective and loyal friend whose adventures had
<v Speaker 4>brought considerable who say, fame to a certain retired doctor
<v Speaker 4>now living in northern California.
<v Speaker 2>I'll drink to that.
<v Speaker 3>Well.
<v Speaker 4>Now.
<v Speaker 3>Suppose I might as well get on with the night's story.
<v Speaker 1>Which particular adventure of his elector, doctor one that I
<v Speaker 1>call the Limping Ghost sounds exciting and as usual, will
<v Speaker 1>you find me saying how did they begin?
<v Speaker 4>In Baker Street on a windy December evening at the
<v Speaker 4>turn of the century, a young white faced boy sat
<v Speaker 4>in front of our blazing fire, and as he told
<v Speaker 4>us his trained story, the flickering firelight count weird patterns
<v Speaker 4>on the walls. The young man was Alexander mac Morris,
<v Speaker 4>the seventh Earl of Locknare.
<v Speaker 1>The Earl of Locknare, Say, didn't I read in the
<v Speaker 1>page the other day that the eighth Earl of Locknare
<v Speaker 1>had been killed in an airplane accident?
<v Speaker 3>Cried right, my boy.
<v Speaker 4>Even in this day and age, the tragic history of
<v Speaker 4>violent death seems to dog the footsteps of the Locknair family,
<v Speaker 4>which returned to my story long af December night in
<v Speaker 4>nineteen hundred we heard the whole history of the limping
<v Speaker 4>host of Lucknare.
<v Speaker 3>The first Earl had.
<v Speaker 4>Lost a foot at the Battle of flodden Field in
<v Speaker 4>fifteen hundred and thirteen. In spite of this terrible handicap,
<v Speaker 4>he fought on valentinin till he died on the battlefield
<v Speaker 4>from loss of blood. From then on, right until the
<v Speaker 4>time this story begins, the limping ghost, dead in a
<v Speaker 4>suit of armor, always appeared at Lochnair Castle before and after.
<v Speaker 3>The death of the current Earl. Yes, mister Bartel, it was.
<v Speaker 4>A strange story that Sherlock Holmes and I listened for
<v Speaker 4>that night, a story of death and horror over the centuries,
<v Speaker 4>punctuated by the limping plank of ghostly armor.
<v Speaker 3>The lady I had terri them news for you.
<v Speaker 5>Your husband, the Earl was killed in the explosion destroyed
<v Speaker 5>Lord Darnley.
<v Speaker 3>The guys to God.
<v Speaker 2>The House Parliament is failed.
<v Speaker 6>Your husband is in the Tower of London.
<v Speaker 7>It seems to be, and my regretful formula that your husband,
<v Speaker 7>of my instructions, has been arrested for murder.
<v Speaker 1>I have no doubt, okay, And that's the story of
<v Speaker 1>the Lochnaire's. Mister Holmes, you were instrumental in sending my
<v Speaker 1>great uncle to the gallows of faperaty richly deserved, I'm told,
<v Speaker 1>so it seemed only natural to come here to bake
<v Speaker 1>a street.
<v Speaker 3>And consult you.
<v Speaker 1>Now that i'm I can be most happy to do
<v Speaker 1>anything I can to help you, Sir.
<v Speaker 4>I don't remember you, but your sending the Earl Lockmare
<v Speaker 4>to the Scaffold home.
<v Speaker 3>Well he did.
<v Speaker 1>Doctor Watson and the servants have always sworn and ghost
<v Speaker 1>really dead walk at midnight on the day that he
<v Speaker 1>was hanged. Indeed, now, sir, I suggest that you tell
<v Speaker 1>us what probably brought you here. The ghost is walking again,
<v Speaker 1>mister Holmes. You know what that means, according.
<v Speaker 3>To the legend, that the present Earl will.
<v Speaker 1>Die exactly, and as I'm the present Earl, you can
<v Speaker 1>see why I'm rather worried you mightn't understand the troupe
<v Speaker 1>actually seen this ghost yourself, Yes, mister Holmes. The night
<v Speaker 1>before last, Betty, well, that is Miss Nolan and I
<v Speaker 1>were sitting in the dining hall in front of the
<v Speaker 1>fire when we heard a strange sound of an ammunition's gallery.
<v Speaker 1>We looked up and in the moonlight saw ghostly figure
<v Speaker 1>in armor limping towards the staircase.
<v Speaker 4>Sir, you're certain that you really said moonlight can play
<v Speaker 4>strange tricks. You know.
<v Speaker 1>There wasn't any doubt about it. Doctor, We both saw
<v Speaker 1>and heard it.
<v Speaker 8>What did you do?
<v Speaker 1>I started to go towards the stairs, but as I
<v Speaker 1>did so, Betty screamed and then tumbled to the.
<v Speaker 2>Floor in a heap. Yes, while I was reviving her,
<v Speaker 2>the ghost disappears.
<v Speaker 8>Who's staying with you at Locknow Castle at the moment.
<v Speaker 1>Well, there's Betty Nolan. She's the sister of James Nolan.
<v Speaker 1>He looks after my estate.
<v Speaker 2>Betty and I are engaged with oh.
<v Speaker 8>As indeed, anyone else staying with you.
<v Speaker 1>Yes, a distant cousin of mine, Jed came up Morris,
<v Speaker 1>an American. He turned up in England a couple of
<v Speaker 1>months ago with his son Walter, but both.
<v Speaker 3>With me at the present.
<v Speaker 1>A distant cousin, that's right, mister Holmes, actually the descendants
<v Speaker 1>of a more than usually black sheep branch of the family.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how long the old man's going to
<v Speaker 1>be with us, though, you ask me, he's a dying man,
<v Speaker 1>are you say that? As far as I can gather,
<v Speaker 1>he's been wasting away for years. It's only a question
<v Speaker 1>of time, for his strength failed him entirely. I was
<v Speaker 1>hoping perhaps you could take a look at him, doctor Watson.
<v Speaker 1>That is the if I persuade you and mister Holmes
<v Speaker 1>to come and stay at the castle for a few days.
<v Speaker 3>Well, what about at homes.
<v Speaker 8>It's an intriguing problem, Watson.
<v Speaker 1>The current Earl of Luckna would seemed to be in danger,
<v Speaker 1>a cousin of his is dying of an obscure disease,
<v Speaker 1>and the ghost of Lucknare Castle is walking again. Yes,
<v Speaker 1>it's an irresistible invitation. I see no reason why we
<v Speaker 1>can't leave on the Scotch express Tonight been quite a
<v Speaker 1>heavy fall of snows here in your.
<v Speaker 4>Absence, young man, quite so, judging from the color of
<v Speaker 4>the sky, there's more to come.
<v Speaker 3>Really angry looking. Hm. Oh, Now as we're round.
<v Speaker 1>This bend, you'll be able to see the castle. Ay, yes,
<v Speaker 1>here you are, gentlemen, Magniverson.
<v Speaker 2>Yes it's a fine place, all right, doctor, though it
<v Speaker 2>cost me a great deal and upkeep. Matter of fact,
<v Speaker 2>I only have one wing open.
<v Speaker 3>Always been something more problem to.
<v Speaker 4>Get servants to come and live here. See the local
<v Speaker 4>villages have a great respect for the.
<v Speaker 3>Locks near ghost.
<v Speaker 8>What serviainces do you have of the castle of present.
<v Speaker 1>A cook housekeeper, Missus McLintock, fine old lady who's been
<v Speaker 1>with me for six years now. And then there's old Tammas.
<v Speaker 1>He served my families for as long as.
<v Speaker 8>I can remember.
<v Speaker 2>Who is a matter of fact that he is now
<v Speaker 2>tell her Tamas.
<v Speaker 4>I'm glad to see you.
<v Speaker 1>Thank my Lord, Oh, thank you Tamas, Oh these gentlemen,
<v Speaker 1>mister Sherlock.
<v Speaker 2>Holmes, Doctor Watts, good day, gentlemen.
<v Speaker 1>Good break the trap round to the stables, and may
<v Speaker 1>as well break the news to you.
<v Speaker 2>That's what's happened to us. It's your cousin, my lord,
<v Speaker 2>for old mister mc morris.
<v Speaker 3>He's dead.
<v Speaker 1>He died early this morning, God rest his soul dead.
<v Speaker 3>I'm very sorry that I arrived too late to be
<v Speaker 3>any help.
<v Speaker 4>Well, thank you for telling me Tallis or you may
<v Speaker 4>pick trap down now, Hi, I'll bring.
<v Speaker 3>So he's dead.
<v Speaker 2>Well, I can't say it's unexpected, but it is a shock.
<v Speaker 1>Nevertheless, I'm sure that it must be, particularly as you
<v Speaker 1>yourself told us you.
<v Speaker 8>Saw the ghost of blackmail that might fall out in
<v Speaker 8>which case?
<v Speaker 1>In which case, Watson, I think we may reasonably expect
<v Speaker 1>another visitation, perhaps the poor.
<v Speaker 8>The night is over if we go in.
<v Speaker 2>This is miss Nolan, my fiance, Mister Shelock Holmes.
<v Speaker 3>Dr Watson.
<v Speaker 1>I'm very glad to meet you, and this is how
<v Speaker 1>brother James Nolan, the manager of my estate, how to
<v Speaker 1>do so?
<v Speaker 4>How are you, mister Nolan? Much better for seeing you
<v Speaker 4>both up here? I'm sure it won't take you long
<v Speaker 4>to lay this ghost business. By the first, you don't
<v Speaker 4>overestimate our abilities, mister nolan.
<v Speaker 2>Alec you've you've heard about your cousin of course, Oh yes,
<v Speaker 2>my dear Thamis told us as we drove up, where's Walter?
<v Speaker 1>He went into the village with the doctor and the
<v Speaker 1>body of his father.
<v Speaker 2>He should be back to How's he taking it? Very quietly?
<v Speaker 2>Too quietly if you ask me.
<v Speaker 4>Those Americans are pretty demonster to people, you know, and
<v Speaker 4>Walter has been no exception. But he behaved very strangely
<v Speaker 4>this morning when the doctor told him.
<v Speaker 3>His father was dead.
<v Speaker 4>He just said, now things will start to happen, and then
<v Speaker 4>shut up like an oyster.
<v Speaker 3>Why can't they care? A tale of the fellow.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, quite so, mister Holmes. I expect you and doctor
<v Speaker 2>Watson would like to go to your room.
<v Speaker 1>I think i'd like to take a look at the
<v Speaker 1>musicians gallery if you don't mind, just of course, would
<v Speaker 1>you excuse a star?
<v Speaker 2>It's in the dining hall here.
<v Speaker 4>It must have been very hospitable people in those days,
<v Speaker 4>FIFTI or sixty people could.
<v Speaker 3>Eat at that table.
<v Speaker 1>Hey, yes, doctor, needless to remark, we hardly have usual room.
<v Speaker 1>Nowadays there's the musician's gallery.
<v Speaker 8>Mister home, Oh yes, yes, I see. How do we
<v Speaker 8>get up there?
<v Speaker 1>I'll show you see there's a stone staircase behind this
<v Speaker 1>history here follow me. Watch your step that's quite narrow,
<v Speaker 1>rather dark.
<v Speaker 8>What's your head? Watch chap on me.
<v Speaker 3>At homes I'm perfect built the stairs for pigments.
<v Speaker 2>A yes, here we are, gentlemen. This is the musician's gather,
<v Speaker 2>Hi Joe.
<v Speaker 4>It must have made a pretty picture. And the day's
<v Speaker 4>gone by a little string orchestra fiddling away here and
<v Speaker 4>stumble up the Scottish nobility bobbing and floating around in
<v Speaker 4>the intricacies of a highlands of Tish or a state
<v Speaker 4>triga vat or something.
<v Speaker 2>What does that dorley do to the bedroom wing?
<v Speaker 8>And that's where that.
<v Speaker 1>Goes to peered from the other night, I suppose, yes,
<v Speaker 1>mister Hope, uh.
<v Speaker 8>Door job. You generally keep this door on lock, sir?
<v Speaker 2>Why no?
<v Speaker 1>But the key mysteriously disappeared about a week. So James
<v Speaker 1>is having a new and maid, so I must remind
<v Speaker 1>him about that.
<v Speaker 2>We're up here, water, we're coming down. It's watering of Morris,
<v Speaker 2>my good cousin's son.
<v Speaker 3>Oh fellow, this has been a dreadful diner for him.
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I'm afraid this is going to be a lot
<v Speaker 1>of painful interview. Hello Walter, this is mister Sherlock Holmes
<v Speaker 1>and doctor Watson. How do you do shell Lack Combs, Sir,
<v Speaker 1>I've heard about you and your friend doctor Watson.
<v Speaker 2>Water Man, I'm friendfully sorry about your father.
<v Speaker 3>Are you now? Isn't that nice of you?
<v Speaker 1>Well, you'll be sorry enough when you're here that I'm
<v Speaker 1>going to take you to court and prove that I'm
<v Speaker 1>the real Earl of Lockmore Water of your mind?
<v Speaker 3>Am I?
<v Speaker 4>No?
<v Speaker 1>Father was out of his because he kept quiet all
<v Speaker 1>these ye, But I'm going to have my rights. I've
<v Speaker 1>looked up the records. I've had genealogist working for months,
<v Speaker 1>and I've got all the facts that prove you're an
<v Speaker 1>impossible man. What are you talking about? You know well
<v Speaker 1>enough when Cherlick Holmes here essential great uncles of the
<v Speaker 1>Gallows twenty years ago, the title in the state should
<v Speaker 1>have come to my father. When I leave here tomorrow,
<v Speaker 1>I'm going straight to the finest lawyer in London. Then
<v Speaker 1>if you believe this, why have you anything about it?
<v Speaker 8>Till now.
<v Speaker 1>Because I'm smart. I found out a thing or two
<v Speaker 1>since I've been staying here. And one of the things
<v Speaker 1>I found out is that your precious fiance and her
<v Speaker 1>brother wouldn't look twice at if it weren't for your money.
<v Speaker 1>In the title shut up, you will find out. She's
<v Speaker 1>a smart little felly and she knows what kind of
<v Speaker 1>a track she's running you.
<v Speaker 4>My compliment, sir, a very professional Opika is a very
<v Speaker 4>well deserved offensive scoundrel.
<v Speaker 1>Sorry about this, Please don't say anything in front of it.
<v Speaker 1>He's going to obsession.
<v Speaker 8>I fight understand. Come on, Watson, let's go and find
<v Speaker 8>our rooms.
<v Speaker 3>Home.
<v Speaker 4>It's nearly dinner time. Why are we wondering about here
<v Speaker 4>in the dark instead of having a glass of share.
<v Speaker 3>With the others?
<v Speaker 4>Were Library and anteenches pectice Now Watson like were m
<v Speaker 4>beas it occurred to me that a further examination of
<v Speaker 4>his dining hall might prove profitable personally home And I
<v Speaker 4>think you're wasting your time on this case.
<v Speaker 8>What makes you think that will happen?
<v Speaker 4>It's perfectly obvious that young American fellow was impascinating the
<v Speaker 4>ghost a few nights ago. He knew his father was
<v Speaker 4>going to die, and he wanted to build up the
<v Speaker 4>legend so make his own claim seemed more believable. But
<v Speaker 4>he's sound reasoning, Watson, that's a biological in his deception.
<v Speaker 4>He should repeat the performance now that his father is dead.
<v Speaker 3>Well, ghost walk at midnight? So where do we go
<v Speaker 3>and have a glass of share? What is it home?
<v Speaker 8>Someone's coming in from the library. Yes, who is it?
<v Speaker 3>You can we've got to start.
<v Speaker 6>I heard voices, and I knew the candles were not
<v Speaker 6>a lighting here, so I came in to see who
<v Speaker 6>it was. You're watching for the ghost, I suppose. Well
<v Speaker 6>you'll no be disappointed, gentlemen, though you may see more
<v Speaker 6>than your bargain. For all that metal week, Ghostly things
<v Speaker 6>that are not comprehend are playing with something much more
<v Speaker 6>dangerous than fire.
<v Speaker 3>Fire burns. The shades are dead. To look up, it's
<v Speaker 3>as opening. It's the ghost.
<v Speaker 2>Say here it comes the poor buddy. See the armor
<v Speaker 2>on it and the way he's dragging.
<v Speaker 6>One leg behind him.
<v Speaker 4>Yes, it really quite an effective impersonation, and the twilight
<v Speaker 4>provides most appropriate life for his.
<v Speaker 8>Play acting too.
<v Speaker 4>A few minutes, young American, of course, look behind him,
<v Speaker 4>there's another figure.
<v Speaker 1>Yes, best in the same kind of armor and cuttying
<v Speaker 1>us hot.
<v Speaker 2>He's putting.
<v Speaker 3>The cost to see him. He's turnning. He's stuck. You're
<v Speaker 3>just raising his.
<v Speaker 4>Look out, great heavens, he's knocking through the ratings.
<v Speaker 3>That must be twenty foot fall.
<v Speaker 1>Come on, O, come on, help you open his bicy
<v Speaker 1>Yes it's Waltim mcmartiest, the American now from the angle
<v Speaker 1>of his head. I just suggest, but it might be
<v Speaker 1>the late Waltim McCarty. Say Watson did all right home.
<v Speaker 1>He while of the second ticket, has been able to
<v Speaker 1>slip back to that corn his keepers. Come on, he
<v Speaker 1>was dressing arm and he can't covered it passed. Perhaps
<v Speaker 1>bea come up a take him. Doctor Watson's story will
<v Speaker 1>continue in just a few seconds, which is all the
<v Speaker 1>time I need to tell you about Patrae California Muscatel.
<v Speaker 1>Have a try Patrie muscatel. It's a wine that looks
<v Speaker 1>like sheer gold, and it's made from big, plump juice
<v Speaker 1>muscat grapes.
<v Speaker 2>Boy, pop one of those muscat grapes into your mouth,
<v Speaker 2>and you know you've got something delicious.
<v Speaker 1>You know that, and you get the same flavor in
<v Speaker 1>petrie musk tell it's a perfect wine to serve a lady.
<v Speaker 1>Women love it, and that best time to serve it
<v Speaker 1>is after dinner or on a Sunday afternoon, you know,
<v Speaker 1>times like that. But just make sure it's Petrie musc tell,
<v Speaker 1>because that's the way to make sure it's gonna be good,
<v Speaker 1>Remember Petrie. And now back to tonight's new Sherlock Holmes
<v Speaker 1>Adventure and the story of the limping ghost of Lockmayor.
<v Speaker 3>There's no trace of the ghost magicians, Geller.
<v Speaker 2>You gave him too much of a start on afraid,
<v Speaker 2>of course you did find him.
<v Speaker 6>You'll never find him because he's.
<v Speaker 8>Not much missus macrinach.
<v Speaker 4>Is the original suit of armor, the one worn by
<v Speaker 4>the first Earl of buckmase till Inmcastle.
<v Speaker 6>Ay, sir, it's in the library through that door there.
<v Speaker 2>I'll take it too, Humbaba, thank you.
<v Speaker 8>We'll find it.
<v Speaker 1>Come on, Rotten, bring that candle with you.
<v Speaker 6>Joe, you can know what good thing you're to stop
<v Speaker 6>jappling in dinner, really can.
<v Speaker 3>Holmes? What do you make of the second girl?
<v Speaker 8>Impostor? Obviously, but who could it have been?
<v Speaker 1>That's what we have to find out, Old Chap And
<v Speaker 1>now did this someone knew that the American Walter mac
<v Speaker 1>morris was impersonating the ghost and used this macabol method
<v Speaker 1>to kill him.
<v Speaker 3>But why kill him?
<v Speaker 1>Possibly his claims to the title and estate were varied,
<v Speaker 1>or perhaps some phonetic were so diverted to the Muckmare
<v Speaker 1>legend that he assumed the role of ghost and killed
<v Speaker 1>him for his sacrilege.
<v Speaker 8>Old the cattle, Little Highway, little jab.
<v Speaker 4>Hello, here's a suit of armor homes lying in a
<v Speaker 4>heap on the floor on the forehead, But I said,
<v Speaker 4>obviously belongs on that stand over there, perfectly clear.
<v Speaker 8>What's happened?
<v Speaker 4>The second figure used this armor and slipped it back
<v Speaker 4>in here while we were examining the dead massively.
<v Speaker 8>What's impossibly?
<v Speaker 1>These disarmour gives us a definitely clue, but it limits
<v Speaker 1>the field of posible sous. How do you mean, Well,
<v Speaker 1>it's an interesting fact that the human race has grown
<v Speaker 1>definitely nager in the past four hundred years. If you
<v Speaker 1>modern men can wear authentic ancient armor like this. For example,
<v Speaker 1>take the first item on the top of the heap
<v Speaker 1>lying on the floor. Here he is gauntlets of chain mail.
<v Speaker 8>Got a arm.
<v Speaker 3>Well much too small to day.
<v Speaker 2>Either you nor I could have won this suit.
<v Speaker 3>No local youngeman this take it.
<v Speaker 1>But as his sister could have done this, Sok Thomas
<v Speaker 1>a butcher, he's a small feman, and.
<v Speaker 4>He becomes the dah Watson, how a distinguished client. The
<v Speaker 4>young Earl of Lucknaire isn't so a small manage? You're
<v Speaker 4>so he is, and he might EASi had a motive
<v Speaker 4>down with Maris Head disputed his right the title.
<v Speaker 3>Earlier in the day.
<v Speaker 1>He mustn't jump to conclusions. Nevertheless, you see what valuable
<v Speaker 1>evidence this arm has become.
<v Speaker 3>Hello at sounds of the rest of the part here on.
<v Speaker 1>The seas, I suggested we join them, without making any
<v Speaker 1>reference to the suit of armor. Remember old Chap One
<v Speaker 1>of them in there is a murderer, and we may
<v Speaker 1>have to suffer trap to catch him.
<v Speaker 2>No, of course, are you sure he's dead, Dr Watson,
<v Speaker 2>There's no doubt about it. His neck was broken instantly
<v Speaker 2>by the fall.
<v Speaker 3>It's tread for father and son both died on the
<v Speaker 3>same day.
<v Speaker 4>And you said the real ghost came up behind him,
<v Speaker 4>mister Holmes and struck them, so they crashed through the.
<v Speaker 3>Railing of them.
<v Speaker 8>I said, another figure addressed in and killed him.
<v Speaker 6>Mister Nolan so the real ghost I saw him when
<v Speaker 6>he owned two eyes. He killed that man for trying
<v Speaker 6>to bring shame on the name of Lochneir.
<v Speaker 3>Who can't we get into touch with the police.
<v Speaker 1>How can I get a message to them tonight? If
<v Speaker 1>you look outside, were almost completely stowed in snow. It Oh, hush, sharling,
<v Speaker 1>there's nothing to be afraid of anymore.
<v Speaker 8>No, at least we have the assurance that the ghosts
<v Speaker 8>were not limped again. Why well, the murderers.
<v Speaker 1>No further motive for impersonating the ghost the walk now
<v Speaker 1>would be to support the dead Americans claims. No, we
<v Speaker 1>shall spend a quiet night, and tomorrow I shall communicate
<v Speaker 1>with the proper authorities as to my quite definite notions
<v Speaker 1>regarding the murderers. I but if the ghost should walk again,
<v Speaker 1>mister and sir, I shall know that at last I've
<v Speaker 1>encountered the truly supernatural crime, and she'll retire from the
<v Speaker 1>practice of them of detection.
<v Speaker 4>As a little two o'clock, you're still over there the window,
<v Speaker 4>Buffy were Papio, you can help being that young with
<v Speaker 4>Morris knows the g wil More.
<v Speaker 3>He told us pretty little more the shift to look
<v Speaker 3>about him. I don't like never did trust a fellow.
<v Speaker 3>Good look a squall in the eye. Let you feel
<v Speaker 3>the same way. Home Homes, homes, fire homes.
<v Speaker 8>Black Watson, where's you been?
<v Speaker 3>I thought you was over over the window.
<v Speaker 8>We've been talking too, my dettle chap.
<v Speaker 1>It was on the dressing gown around the last step
<v Speaker 1>of this strange, thankful tragedy.
<v Speaker 3>Thank the Lord for that. Perhaps I can get some sleep. Homes,
<v Speaker 3>Where have you been?
<v Speaker 1>I went to the musicians Harry and waited the trap.
<v Speaker 1>Now it's ready to spring.
<v Speaker 2>Don't thoughtful?
<v Speaker 3>What come on? Come on? What do you mean you
<v Speaker 3>you faited a trap?
<v Speaker 8>You'll see for yourself in a few moments.
<v Speaker 1>As a matter of fact, I really dated it when
<v Speaker 1>I said downstairs, if the real ghosts should walk again,
<v Speaker 1>I would retire from the practice.
<v Speaker 8>Of the texture. I didn't understand you were saying it
<v Speaker 8>was well.
<v Speaker 1>I was tempting the murderer to show his hand runs more.
<v Speaker 1>Come on, come on, where are we going to wait?
<v Speaker 1>Behind the curtain at the foot of the stairs leading
<v Speaker 1>to the musicians gallery? And I hope we don't have
<v Speaker 1>to wait very long, Holmes.
<v Speaker 2>I'm getting a crook in my neck trying to peer
<v Speaker 2>through this wretched curtain?
<v Speaker 3>How much longer do we have to wait?
<v Speaker 8>Murry?
<v Speaker 2>You certainly come, not certain, but hopeful, expretely hopeful.
<v Speaker 3>Well who it is? Don't too?
<v Speaker 8>Yes, but my proof is too thing for a quarter
<v Speaker 8>of law. I mustn't touch him in the act. You
<v Speaker 8>got it, splendid, Let's go.
<v Speaker 2>Hell no, no, he walk into my trap. He's coming
<v Speaker 2>towards the head of the stairs.
<v Speaker 3>Great start.
<v Speaker 1>Exactly a simple piece of wire stretched across the gallery
<v Speaker 1>is remarkably affected even with ghosts.
<v Speaker 8>Can't don't off for this biker.
<v Speaker 3>There we are, good lord, it's it's changed now.
<v Speaker 8>Exactly what's happened?
<v Speaker 4>He walked into a simple trap, friend, And I'm fraid
<v Speaker 4>the next trap will be more lethal, or, if.
<v Speaker 8>I'm down to it, proved to be the one beneath
<v Speaker 8>the gallows.
<v Speaker 3>Well, now that we're headed back to London.
<v Speaker 4>Homes, perhaps you settle one or two points in.
<v Speaker 2>The case that are borrowing me quite a bit with pleasure,
<v Speaker 2>my dear Chapard, are they I still.
<v Speaker 3>Don't see what Nolan's motive was in murdering the American.
<v Speaker 8>All that should be obvious.
<v Speaker 1>He wanted to ensure that his sister's aounced woud enjoy undisputed.
<v Speaker 8>Title to the name of the states.
<v Speaker 3>How did you know it was Nolan?
<v Speaker 1>When I examined the authentic suit of armor, you see,
<v Speaker 1>it was obvious it had never been worn. I still
<v Speaker 1>don't quite You have to shoot of armor was in
<v Speaker 1>a heap on the floor. Yeah, and if it had
<v Speaker 1>been hastily discarded. And yet well, the gauntlets were on
<v Speaker 1>top of the pile, you remember, That's right, there were.
<v Speaker 1>If the shoot had really have been worn, the gauntets
<v Speaker 1>would have been the first things to have been taken off,
<v Speaker 1>and so would have been the underneath the pile. Obviously, therefore,
<v Speaker 1>the armor had been disarranged in order to make people
<v Speaker 1>believe the real ghost A.
<v Speaker 4>Walk after the American's death, the suspects before Miss Nolan,
<v Speaker 4>her brother, Thomas, the butler, and Earl himself. When I
<v Speaker 4>pulled out missus mc clinton, because remember she was standing
<v Speaker 4>behind us of the plan of the murder, I'm beginning
<v Speaker 4>to understand all the suspects except Nolan was small enough
<v Speaker 4>to warn.
<v Speaker 1>The other that's right. Therefore, only he could have pretended
<v Speaker 1>to use it.
<v Speaker 3>He did you.
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, my dear fellow, Undogly he procured a similar
<v Speaker 1>one of modern manufacture.
<v Speaker 3>An amazing case.
<v Speaker 4>I'm an interesting one at any rate. And once again,
<v Speaker 4>old fellow, I'm possibly reminded of an.
<v Speaker 2>Old Scottish litany Scottish litter there which one.
<v Speaker 8>You remember it?
<v Speaker 4>I'm coolies and ghosts and long legged beasties and things
<v Speaker 4>that go bump in the night, good lord deliverers.
<v Speaker 2>Well darker, that's really a swell story.
<v Speaker 3>You know.
<v Speaker 2>For a while I was beginning to believe in ghost.
<v Speaker 3>Well I'm assumed to admit it, but at the time,
<v Speaker 3>so you.
<v Speaker 1>Know, this sounds silly, But I bet it would be
<v Speaker 1>fun to be one of those legendary English ghosts, you know,
<v Speaker 1>go around sticking and ose and too everybody's business and
<v Speaker 1>playing practical jokes like Matt nobody able to figure out
<v Speaker 1>who did it.
<v Speaker 2>Fun in a way.
<v Speaker 3>Well, you can go around scaring people where you want to.
<v Speaker 3>But for me, I think it goes leads.
<v Speaker 4>A terrible life, so instance can't have a pleasure of
<v Speaker 4>eating a nice juice of.
<v Speaker 2>Steak, yeah, or drinking a glass of really good wine.
<v Speaker 3>Ah, now you're talking young for the lass Petrie wine.

<v Speaker 1>for generations, handing on down from father to son, from
<v Speaker 1>father to son, all their skill and knowledge and experience.
<v Speaker 1>When you realize they started the Petrie business way back
<v Speaker 1>in the eighteen hundreds, well, common sense tells you the
<v Speaker 1>Petrie family knows practically all there is to know about
<v Speaker 1>the fine art of turning luscious grapes into clear, fragrant wine. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>whether you're looking for a swell wine to serve before dinner,
<v Speaker 1>or with dinner, or after dinner, for any occasion, you
<v Speaker 1>just can't go wrong with a Petrie wine because Petrie
