<v Speaker 1>From New York, the makers of Clipper Craft Clothes for men. <v Speaker 2>And nine hundred and twenty four leading retail stores from <v Speaker 2>coast to coast present. <v Speaker 1>The world's most famous detective, Sherlock Holmes. Our stories are <v Speaker 1>based upon the character of Sherlock Holmes, created by Sir <v Speaker 1>Argurt Colan Doyle. Sherlock Holmes is portrayed by John Stanley, <v Speaker 1>Doctor Watson by Alfred Shirley, and the dominizations are by <v Speaker 1>Edith Meiser. <v Speaker 2>Here we are about to water doctor Watson's committed study. <v Speaker 1>Hello, what's this? <v Speaker 2>We find the good doctor hanging up his Christmas hobby. <v Speaker 3>Not forgetting springer of mistletoe. Mister Harris, hope springs the tell, <v Speaker 3>as they say. <v Speaker 1>But here, help me down. <v Speaker 2>From this chair. <v Speaker 3>My old legs on that giant as they were in <v Speaker 3>the days when I followed homes, through the dungeons and <v Speaker 3>up the task stares of old Pensacon Castle, there were <v Speaker 3>er face. <v Speaker 2>So that sounds suspiciously like the beginning of a Sherlock <v Speaker 2>Holmes yarn. <v Speaker 1>Doctor Watson it is. <v Speaker 2>Mister Harris, it is. Holmes always called it. <v Speaker 4>The Adventure of the Christmas Bride. <v Speaker 2>It concerns a ghostly lady. <v Speaker 1>In white, who was supposed to have disappeared centuries ago. <v Speaker 3>The honor Over family had a certain Father Christmas who <v Speaker 3>suddenly sang bass and now I fixed us both of you, <v Speaker 3>tied Tory. Suppose you tell our friends and listeners about <v Speaker 3>a gifted man in our order would welcome from Father <v Speaker 3>Christmas orders you Americans call him. <v Speaker 5>Santa Claus with pleasure, doctor Watson, and not only from <v Speaker 5>Santa Claus. A thrifty man can give himself a worthwhile <v Speaker 5>gift anytime if he insists on clipper crack for clipper <v Speaker 5>Craft clothes. <v Speaker 1>Keep on giving for a long long time. <v Speaker 5>First of all, you've never seen such truly fine clothes <v Speaker 5>at such really low prices. That means you pocket the skivings. <v Speaker 5>That's the first gift to yourself. And they also give <v Speaker 5>you superb styling, perfect fit and long wear. Clipper Craft <v Speaker 5>clothes give you so very much because of the unique <v Speaker 5>clipper Craft Plan, concentrating the buying power of nine hundred <v Speaker 5>twenty four of. <v Speaker 1>The nation's leading stores from coast to coast. That means <v Speaker 1>tremendous savings in manufacturing and distribution costs, and yours are <v Speaker 1>the savings springing plan makes possible. Clipper Craft suits are <v Speaker 1>only forty and forty five dollars, clipper Craft top coats <v Speaker 1>and overcoats only forty dollars, and sport jackets. <v Speaker 5>Only twenty six fifty. Clipper Craft badges are so amazing we. <v Speaker 1>Urge you to compare them, with both selling for many <v Speaker 1>dollars more. And now, how about that Christmas bride, Doctor Watson. <v Speaker 3>Her name was Geneva, and she was the heir and <v Speaker 3>only child of Lord Robert Neville, tenth Earl and fifty <v Speaker 3>fourth Baron Pensdragon of Pensdragon Castle. Yes, I shall never <v Speaker 3>forget my first glimpse of that ancient and somewhat forbidding edifice, <v Speaker 3>the walls gray and bleak without the summer covering of ivy, <v Speaker 3>the tars square and defiant, with a red or rouged <v Speaker 3>dragon pennant angrily defying the winter gales. Will as I <v Speaker 3>was saying, a rather urgent message from Lord Neville on <v Speaker 3>elegant embosstationery arrived. <v Speaker 2>At two twenty one b Baker Street. <v Speaker 3>Would mister Hols and Doc Watson doing the honor of <v Speaker 3>a visit to Pensdragon over. <v Speaker 2>The Christmas holidays. <v Speaker 3>The visit to include the wedding of his daughter led <v Speaker 3>Geneva to the immensely wealthy of slightly middle aged went <v Speaker 3>with Trimingham, which was due. <v Speaker 1>To occurred on the second day of the new year. <v Speaker 5>Now don't tell me. The eminent mister Sherlock Holmes was <v Speaker 5>called in to guard the wedding presence. <v Speaker 2>Doctor watched the hardly. <v Speaker 1>Mister heavies at any rate. <v Speaker 3>The day before Christmas pound us a lighting from our <v Speaker 3>train at a small station in the Cumberland Hills, which <v Speaker 3>you know are situated in the north of England. <v Speaker 1>There had been a slight fall of snow. <v Speaker 3>An ancient carriage with red wheels and the little arms <v Speaker 3>on the door was thrown into the station platform, while <v Speaker 3>the anxious face of the Lord of the manor himself <v Speaker 3>in top hat and ear mufs, peered through one of <v Speaker 3>the steamy windows. <v Speaker 2>Mister Arms and Doctor Patterson. That's right, and this may, <v Speaker 2>gentlemen his lordship to expect your encourage. <v Speaker 1>Quite a fall of snow. You've come here, sir more <v Speaker 1>a common rights. <v Speaker 2>We should have brought the stay on his lordship lorded <v Speaker 2>to the vicar for tomorrow night Vica always plays by <v Speaker 2>the Christmas that day are on. <v Speaker 1>Christmas Eve Manos and mister ORMs and doctor Watch sir, <v Speaker 1>Good afternoon, gentlemen, good afternoon. <v Speaker 2>You will hop in before you freeze to death? Are <v Speaker 2>you here? I'm suppose you're fined off this ah An <v Speaker 2>NNI's better pens dragons faster to gain. <v Speaker 1>Mister Holmes, as curious as to why I've invited you <v Speaker 1>and doctor Watson to share our yule Tide celebrations of <v Speaker 1>hens Dragon to be quite a milord level. <v Speaker 2>I didn't think it was entirely for the pleasure of <v Speaker 2>our society. <v Speaker 1>Although Watson is quite an asset when it comes to <v Speaker 1>Carol singing, tennor certainly lost that of that good the <v Speaker 1>vicar who leads the Christmas singing. <v Speaker 2>He's rather proud of his tenor voice, and may say <v Speaker 2>he's not too fond of competition. <v Speaker 1>Ms Polmes, I have invited to depends Dragon to make <v Speaker 1>sure that nothing nothing occurs to prevent the marriage of <v Speaker 1>my daughter to mister Wentworth's Trimmingham. Why is that marriage <v Speaker 1>so imperative, Lord Devil to be brutally frank, mister Holmes. <v Speaker 2>The nail estates are mortgaged up to the ears if <v Speaker 2>the marriage. <v Speaker 1>Does not go through on the second of next month, <v Speaker 1>I shall be banked, totally bank. <v Speaker 2>You'll see, nothing. <v Speaker 1>Occurred, Lord Neville, to make you fear that this marriage <v Speaker 1>may not take place. <v Speaker 2>That is nothing definite. <v Speaker 3>Perhaps the lady Genevra hasn't been able to hide her <v Speaker 3>deceased for the may. <v Speaker 2>Oh no, no, no, nothing like that. <v Speaker 1>I wouldn't say it was a passionate attachment on either side. <v Speaker 1>But they they like the same things. She laughs at <v Speaker 1>all his jokes. What better foundation could one ask for <v Speaker 1>a marriage. <v Speaker 2>Jay Watson, That's what I should have said. <v Speaker 1>Well, everything was as smooth as silk until the Dowager <v Speaker 1>Duchess of Terse gave the engagement the last month. It <v Speaker 1>was at her suggestion that I sent you the invitation <v Speaker 1>to Pen's Dragon. She's been decidedly edgy ever since Percy <v Speaker 1>returned in a mistat of betrothal. <v Speaker 2>Dinner two weeks ago. Percy as Percy is my cousin. <v Speaker 2>Although he's only seven years older than Genevra, he's our <v Speaker 2>next of kin. See as a matter of fact, he's <v Speaker 2>an orphan and lived with. <v Speaker 1>Us of Penn's Dragon until he went off to Canada <v Speaker 1>to seek his fortune two years ago. <v Speaker 2>If anything, should. <v Speaker 3>Happen to your daughter before she produced an air, would <v Speaker 3>Percy devil Inheadit? <v Speaker 1>Yes, doctor Watson, both the title and the estates Percy <v Speaker 1>Neverrell's return was unexpected. <v Speaker 2>Iver. It was unexpected and meldramatic, to say the beast. <v Speaker 1>The betrothal dinner was being held in the great hall <v Speaker 1>of Penn's drinking cattle. My daughter had just. <v Speaker 2>Risen to return the bridegroom's toast. <v Speaker 1>As she lifted her glass, a casement window was thrown <v Speaker 1>violently open, and Percy walked in out of the night. <v Speaker 6>And now I should like to make a toast to <v Speaker 6>my future bridegroom, Hersey. <v Speaker 2>Thursday. Urse. But I came as soon as I received <v Speaker 2>news of the engagement, Percy. Why didn't you let us <v Speaker 2>know you were coming? Let you know that, you know <v Speaker 2>when you never bought to answer my letters, We never <v Speaker 2>received any let us. We thought you'd forgotten this. <v Speaker 1>I'd forgotten so that that would have mattered. <v Speaker 2>Thirsty, That's not true. You know how fond are we <v Speaker 2>are of you. I'll touch you, Percy. This is Wentworth <v Speaker 2>Wentworth tuning in my future right. <v Speaker 1>This is the little man they've sold. <v Speaker 7>You to. <v Speaker 2>It. I'm very fond of Wheneva. Fancy why do you <v Speaker 2>look at me like that to think you should so <v Speaker 2>soon forget our family motto name delay. <v Speaker 1>This name never means that. <v Speaker 2>You know nay delay balis. <v Speaker 1>Nay v they venus let it, I take it at <v Speaker 1>home quite it means stoop to nothing. Bass In case <v Speaker 1>you've forgotten your obit, Watson, teach your grandmother to save <v Speaker 1>Tell me, Lord Neville, what happened? Doctor Percy quoted the <v Speaker 1>family motto your daughter. He stamped off to his old <v Speaker 1>rooms in the tower and hasn't been out of them since. <v Speaker 2>How does the lady Geneva react to this unfriendly behavior? Who? <v Speaker 2>She says, let himself, It's no concern of hers. <v Speaker 1>Lady Ters, on the other hand, is thoroughly unnerved by <v Speaker 1>Testy's return. <v Speaker 2>Oh is she finished? Or he'll do something outrageous. The <v Speaker 2>of the wedding, Paul Wentworth as an edgy as a <v Speaker 2>hen on a hot riddle. Well, of course, that may <v Speaker 2>be due to his encounter with the White Lady. <v Speaker 1>White Lady who she the ghost of the first Geneva, <v Speaker 1>You know, the bride who played hide and seek on <v Speaker 1>her wedding nights and was never seen alive again. Years later, <v Speaker 1>her skeleton was stounded in her great power chest, still <v Speaker 1>dressed in her wedding gown. She'd hidden in there, and <v Speaker 1>somehow the hats must have fallen down and she was <v Speaker 1>locked in and smothered to death. <v Speaker 3>Seems to be remember a rather famous pern on the <v Speaker 3>Circle of Guess. <v Speaker 1>So all the Genevas and the Nevills family have been <v Speaker 1>named after her. She's supposed to walk through the halls <v Speaker 1>of the castle wherever. <v Speaker 2>Her misfortune is due to a curtain cheerful damas on <v Speaker 2>her homes. <v Speaker 1>When and how did it went worth coming to meet <v Speaker 1>the lady? Well, mister Holmes, it seems it's his habit <v Speaker 1>to knock on my daughter's door. <v Speaker 2>And he went to bed to wish her good night <v Speaker 2>last night. The wind was rather high, and he couldn't <v Speaker 2>seem to make my daughter hear. <v Speaker 1>Suddenly he heard a strange creaking noise down the horridor <v Speaker 1>behind him. Looking round, he saw the lid of the <v Speaker 1>dark chest right slow, Geneva, Geneva, my. <v Speaker 2>DearS, I went to birth that come to bid you <v Speaker 2>good night? Geneva? Are you there, genever? Good Lord? But <v Speaker 2>the lid of the chest rising, and something woman in wie. <v Speaker 2>She's rising under the church boy. <v Speaker 6>You come to me, I have come to warn you <v Speaker 6>go away, go away? <v Speaker 2>Before then, what happened Lord Novo? <v Speaker 1>For nothing, mister Holmes, Apparently the white figure glided past <v Speaker 1>my daughter. Say I'm saying disappeared after the task step. <v Speaker 1>What if the lady looked like blonde brunette when says <v Speaker 1>her features were hidden by the bridal veil. It's interesting. <v Speaker 1>I suppose anyone in the house would have access to <v Speaker 1>that power chest. <v Speaker 2>On the contrary of mister Holmes, too many people are <v Speaker 2>possessed of insatiable curiosity. I keep the silly safety petlock. <v Speaker 1>I promise you how many keys are that to that petlock, <v Speaker 1>one which I keep by me here on. <v Speaker 4>My hearing A very wise precaution, I say, Holmes. <v Speaker 2>Oh, but it's even larger than the one in my room. <v Speaker 2>But the Chansy Queen. <v Speaker 3>Victoria slept there when she paid a visit in eighteen <v Speaker 3>forty six. <v Speaker 1>It looks so superior, Watson, Elizabeth, I'm told slept here <v Speaker 1>at a few years before. <v Speaker 3>Or come in all lads, beautiful and charming. <v Speaker 2>Stop nonsense. Glad to see you both of you. Something's <v Speaker 2>going on here. I don't like it. What sort of <v Speaker 2>something are you referring to it? <v Speaker 7>No? <v Speaker 2>I did for you can never looks as if Butter. <v Speaker 8>Wouldn't melt in her mouth that sign Certy looks like <v Speaker 8>a thundetter. <v Speaker 2>That's worse. <v Speaker 1>I thought Percy put himself in his room refused to <v Speaker 1>see anyone. <v Speaker 8>I'd like to see anyone refuse to see me. <v Speaker 1>But I'm gavin. <v Speaker 2>You will want to view the premises. <v Speaker 1>Yes, First of all, I'd like to inspect that dour chest. <v Speaker 1>It might be interesting to investigate how lady and White <v Speaker 1>can emerge from a carefully padlocker. <v Speaker 2>Then you don't think it was a ghost? Neither do I? Well, <v Speaker 2>what was she up to? <v Speaker 1>You should be able to answer those questions better, Leditors, <v Speaker 1>after you've had a look inside that box. I wonder <v Speaker 1>if you could persuade Lord Neville to lend us the key. <v Speaker 2>Here's the key, mister Holmes. The Lord never insists bring <v Speaker 2>it back the moment to finish with him. Suspicious old boy, <v Speaker 2>not suspicious? Doctor Watson fussy? Well, mister Holmes, why the delay? <v Speaker 2>Open the silly chest. Let's see what's inside. <v Speaker 1>So fast, Lady Turst, Not so fast? <v Speaker 2>First let's have a look at the lock. Any bit <v Speaker 2>of machinery. <v Speaker 1>It's almost impossible to pick it without showing signs. There <v Speaker 1>are no signs. <v Speaker 2>Then whoever opened it used that key not necessarily wantson. <v Speaker 2>But there's only one key. <v Speaker 8>Lord Neville told us so, And then Robert started to saying, <v Speaker 8>it's gospel. <v Speaker 1>Yes, interesting carving around the lock. <v Speaker 2>The wood's very old. <v Speaker 8>Open it up, fine, dying of curiosity. <v Speaker 1>Very well, lucky soiling hasn't been unlocked for some time. <v Speaker 1>I'll remove the padlock here, Watson, Now, Lady Terst will <v Speaker 1>help me raise the lid. <v Speaker 8>Right, good lord, what's the Oh it's Jenever's spaniel everywhere <v Speaker 8>with her regular shadow. <v Speaker 2>Oh, yes, yes she can't. Hello there, I'm Geneva. Why <v Speaker 2>you must shell our combs? <v Speaker 6>And doctor Watson delighted. <v Speaker 2>Don't let me stop you, mister Holmes. You won't Father's <v Speaker 2>me for. <v Speaker 1>What you're up to. <v Speaker 2>I'm dying to see what's in the chest too. Go ahead, <v Speaker 2>open it up, god dome boy. It's it's a biggish box, <v Speaker 2>isn't it. <v Speaker 1>Yes, a woman could easily hide in. <v Speaker 2>There, something quite tender lying on the bottom. Wonderful. It <v Speaker 2>must be her riding dress. <v Speaker 1>I've always heard of it still in there. <v Speaker 8>Remarkable to find it in such good condition after all <v Speaker 8>these years. <v Speaker 1>The remarkable thing about it, Dada Genevrah, is this dust <v Speaker 1>and dirt up him? <v Speaker 2>Watson, give me an envelope. I shall want to take example. <v Speaker 2>But that's fascinating. <v Speaker 6>I've heard simply fabulous things about you, mister Holmes, and <v Speaker 6>now I believe them. <v Speaker 2>Everyone do you yes?
