Sherlock Holmes - Stolen Navel Treaty

<v Speaker 1>From New York, the makers of flipper Craft Clubs from
<v Speaker 1>Man and nine hundred and twenty four leading retail stories
<v Speaker 1>from Coast to Coast present the world's most famous detective,
<v Speaker 1>Sherlock Holmes. Our stories are based upon the character of
<v Speaker 1>Sherlock Holmes, created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Sherlock Holmes
<v Speaker 1>is portrayed by John Stanley, Doctor Watson by Alfred Shirley,
<v Speaker 1>and the dramatizations are.
<v Speaker 2>By Edith Meiser.
<v Speaker 1>Tonight, the stars are frosty bride, no wind, no clouds,
<v Speaker 1>just clean, clear cold.
<v Speaker 2>It feels good to.
<v Speaker 1>Be sitting in front of your cozy fire, Doctor Watson,
<v Speaker 1>with our feet stressed on the tender.
<v Speaker 3>Don't get too comfortable, mister heads, because tonight I'm going
<v Speaker 3>to tell.
<v Speaker 2>You about that one of Shark's most important cases.
<v Speaker 1>The case is the stolen Naval treaty, A naval treaty, Doctor.
<v Speaker 2>A highly exclusive document. Explosive.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's threatened to blurt a piece of Europe into bits.
<v Speaker 2>And did it? Now?
<v Speaker 3>Really, mister Harris, you you mustn't get ahead of the story.
<v Speaker 2>And let's not forget your part in the program.
<v Speaker 1>Right, doctor Watson, And by part in The program is
<v Speaker 1>really a very simple one. My job is to tell
<v Speaker 1>our listeners the great big idea behind Clippercraft clothes. It's
<v Speaker 1>just this to bring you the finest values in clothes
<v Speaker 1>in America at the friendly local store you can trust.
<v Speaker 2>Now, naturally, this is not easy. It takes real planning.
<v Speaker 1>It's the remarkable Clippercraft plan that makes it all possible.
<v Speaker 1>Concentrating the buying car of nine hundred and twenty four
<v Speaker 1>leading stores across America, taking tremendous savings and manufacturing and
<v Speaker 1>distribution costs, you've a treat in store for you if
<v Speaker 1>you've never seen clipper craft fothes.
<v Speaker 2>Beautiful clippercraft suits that.
<v Speaker 1>Look like twice as much money, and we're like at too,
<v Speaker 1>are only forty dollars and forty three seventy five top
<v Speaker 1>coats and overcoats are only forty dollars, and sport jackets
<v Speaker 1>only twenty five dollars.
<v Speaker 2>They're so amazingly.
<v Speaker 1>Fine that we urge you to compare them with clothes
<v Speaker 1>selling for many dollars more. And now, doctor Watson, how
<v Speaker 1>about that stolen neighbor tree. Yes, let's see when you're
<v Speaker 1>that morning.
<v Speaker 3>It was the July which immediately succeeded man marriage eh
<v Speaker 3>and received a communication from a news school and Pursy
<v Speaker 3>Phillips purss mother's brother.
<v Speaker 2>The Lord host to.
<v Speaker 3>Be a great conservative politician, and this rather Gordon relationship
<v Speaker 3>was a little value to him when we were.
<v Speaker 2>At school, I can assure you.
<v Speaker 3>However, they let us seemed to be sever urgent, so
<v Speaker 3>I headed around to Baker Street. I found homes in
<v Speaker 3>his dressing gown, plunged in the middle of a chemical investigation.
<v Speaker 3>A large curved that tork was boiling furiously in the
<v Speaker 3>bluish flame of a Bunsen burner.
<v Speaker 2>Seeing the look of concentration on Holmes's.
<v Speaker 3>Face, I seated myself in my old armchair and waited,
<v Speaker 3>hardly daring to breathe.
<v Speaker 4>HM.
<v Speaker 1>Boston Lightning, Boston lightning. Yes, you will come at a crisis, Watson.
<v Speaker 1>If this slip of paper remains blue when it touches
<v Speaker 1>the solution.
<v Speaker 2>All will be well.
<v Speaker 1>That turned red means a man's life. I say he
<v Speaker 1>studied a rough Watson. This is the crucial moment. I
<v Speaker 1>watch carefully.
<v Speaker 2>There, but I say it has burned red and lasted
<v Speaker 2>blood red. Blood red is quite correct, Watson. A very
<v Speaker 2>commonplace murder. Well, if the end of battle experiment, Hi,
<v Speaker 2>fill up your pipe, then hand me the persian slipped on?
<v Speaker 2>All right here you are, hm, So you've come on
<v Speaker 2>business Watson? Yes, but how did you.
<v Speaker 1>Know the letter touched so tightly in your right hand?
<v Speaker 1>Not to mention the excitement and anxiety on your face,
<v Speaker 1>you are the stormy petrol of crime.
<v Speaker 2>Watson? What is it? This letter? It came in the
<v Speaker 2>morning mail. Read it me. That's a good chap. It's
<v Speaker 2>from an old schoolfellow man. I haven't seen him for years. Yes,
<v Speaker 2>but what did he say? The letter is headed Briar
<v Speaker 2>Bray Woking.
<v Speaker 3>My dear Watson, I trust you still remember Tad Paul Phelps,
<v Speaker 3>who was in the fourth form when you were in
<v Speaker 3>the third.
<v Speaker 2>You may even have heard that through.
<v Speaker 3>My uncle's influence, I obtained a good appointment at the
<v Speaker 3>Foreign Office, where I was in a situation of trust
<v Speaker 3>until a horrible misfortune suddenly blasted my career. Do you
<v Speaker 3>think you could persuade your friend Sherlock Holmes to come
<v Speaker 3>down here to help solve this terrible mess?
<v Speaker 2>Assure him that the only reason I have not asked him.
<v Speaker 3>Advice sooner was because I have been completely off my
<v Speaker 3>head for nine weeks time. I am still so weak
<v Speaker 3>that I have to write by dictating, as you see
<v Speaker 3>your old schoolfellow, Percy Phelps. Hmm, let me see that
<v Speaker 3>on earth doesn't tell us very much, does it hard anything?
<v Speaker 2>Yet?
<v Speaker 1>The writing is of interest, but it's not his own precisely.
<v Speaker 1>It's a woman's, but it looks like a man. No,
<v Speaker 1>it's a woman's, and a woman of unusually strong character.
<v Speaker 1>It's always interesting to know that your client is in
<v Speaker 1>close country with someone who, for good or evil, has
<v Speaker 1>an exceptional nature.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, my interest is already awakened at the matter. Then
<v Speaker 2>you will take the case.
<v Speaker 1>The next plain for walking leaves an exactly forty three minutes. Honey,
<v Speaker 1>what's more, we shall miss it.
<v Speaker 2>Did you step in here, gentlemen? I find out that
<v Speaker 2>mister Phelp's conceal you.
<v Speaker 3>Dear, dear, Oh, your place hasn't changed since the days
<v Speaker 3>when I used to visit here on my vacations.
<v Speaker 2>Makes me feel quite young again.
<v Speaker 5>Ah shureack curves, I perceive, and Dr Watson too, I presume,
<v Speaker 5>So glad to come. Percy's been inquiring for you all morning.
<v Speaker 5>Poor chap it clings to any straw.
<v Speaker 1>My dear man, I may look as thin as a straw,
<v Speaker 1>but I promise you I have more weight mentally. I
<v Speaker 1>received you yourself and not a member of the family. Oh,
<v Speaker 1>dear me, how did you know the monogram on.
<v Speaker 2>The pocket of your blazer k Ah twelve? Course of course,
<v Speaker 2>but a moment I thought you had done something clever.
<v Speaker 5>My name is Harrison, Joseph Harrison Percy is engaged to
<v Speaker 5>marry my sister Annie, so I shall soon be a
<v Speaker 5>relation by marriage.
<v Speaker 2>Narrate. My sister is with him now. She's nursed him
<v Speaker 2>hand and foot during this trying two months, soothing his
<v Speaker 2>pevid brow lucky fellow.
<v Speaker 5>Yes, you will find him in his room, My room rather,
<v Speaker 5>at least it used to be in my room until
<v Speaker 5>he came home after the catastrophe and collapsed.
<v Speaker 2>They couldn't carry him upstairs he was in such a state,
<v Speaker 2>so they took.
<v Speaker 5>Him into my room. We'd better go in it once.
<v Speaker 5>I know how impatient he.
<v Speaker 2>Is to see you. Yes, this conversation is to mic ful,
<v Speaker 2>but after all we did come to see mister Phelps. Yes, yes,
<v Speaker 2>quite so. Come this way. It's in this wings the
<v Speaker 2>dining room. You say, this is the door. I'll leave
<v Speaker 2>you here. You can come in if you like. Oh no,
<v Speaker 2>thank you.
<v Speaker 5>No invalids are always depressing, and with this misfortune hanging
<v Speaker 5>over his head, poor.
<v Speaker 2>Fellow will.
<v Speaker 4>Come in.
<v Speaker 2>Oh last, at least I presume this is Sherlock Holmes.
<v Speaker 2>Quite and how is your vision? Oh he's much better,
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, my dear fellow.
<v Speaker 6>Well, I hardly knew you, and that mustache. I didn't
<v Speaker 6>delight to see your both. Oh this is my fancy,
<v Speaker 6>Miss Haddison. Please sit down?
<v Speaker 2>Shall I leave person? Oh no, don't go any if
<v Speaker 2>you don't mind. Mister Herbs not tall.
<v Speaker 6>I feel much steadier when she's here. Quite and now phelps, Well,
<v Speaker 6>you see, mis a Herbes.
<v Speaker 2>It's like this.
<v Speaker 6>I was a happy and successful man. I'm even being married,
<v Speaker 6>and then this strength misfortune wrecked my life.
<v Speaker 2>I'm a broken man. My honor gone. I won't wrote
<v Speaker 2>your persy. Please, you'll make yourself ill again. I'm sorry.
<v Speaker 2>Perhaps you'd better just tell us the facts as quietly
<v Speaker 2>as you can. Of course, Homes, I was, as Watson
<v Speaker 2>may have told you, in the Foreign.
<v Speaker 6>Office, in a responsible position. My uncle Lord Hohurst is
<v Speaker 6>the foreign Minnesota. Well, yeah, eighty years ago. Week's Rother
<v Speaker 6>the twenty that made me exact.
<v Speaker 2>He called me into his private room informed that he

<v Speaker 2>Come in, Come in. Oh, it's your persy. Anyone out
<v Speaker 2>there in the hall, Nursey, good, come.
<v Speaker 4>In and lock the door. Now, come over here. I
<v Speaker 4>want to make sure we can't be overheard.
<v Speaker 2>That's it. What's up, uncle bird? You look tremendously solemn.
<v Speaker 2>It's a solemn matter, Percy.
<v Speaker 4>Is see this piece of paper. It's a secret treaty
<v Speaker 4>covering our naval situation in the Mediterranean. I'm listen up
<v Speaker 4>in itself, but a bombshell if it should fall into
<v Speaker 4>the hands of well sudden government, it's to me the.
<v Speaker 2>Very walls may have years Percy. Let us merely say
<v Speaker 2>the country of X. You understand, I understand. I want
<v Speaker 2>you to make a copy of it. I must have a.
<v Speaker 4>Complete copy tomorrow morning. You may have to work on
<v Speaker 4>it the better part of the night.
<v Speaker 1>Oh that's all right, sir.
<v Speaker 6>Joseph and his brother you know, is going to stop
<v Speaker 6>by for me. We're going to take the nine o'clock
<v Speaker 6>train together. He can tell the family I've been kept
<v Speaker 6>in tom on business.
<v Speaker 4>Very well, but leave the message with the Commissionire downstairs.
<v Speaker 4>I don't want anyone in your room when you're copying
<v Speaker 4>that document.
<v Speaker 2>Very good, sir. When you've finished, you can put the
<v Speaker 2>document and the copy in my safe. You know the combination.
<v Speaker 4>I believe, certainly that's all persy, But don't forget you

<v Speaker 3>What's more, I'm the charm idea around.
<v Speaker 2>Here, the child lady. I see, I don't believe I've
<v Speaker 2>ever had the pleasure of making your ac queens before. No,
<v Speaker 2>so that you haven't. If you mean what I think
<v Speaker 2>you do, would you inquire if your spouse would spare
<v Speaker 2>me a cup of the excellent coffee?
<v Speaker 9>He already pasts of the empire who are obliged to

<v Speaker 2>You mean, herb, we should bring you half a cup
<v Speaker 2>of coffee? Yes, please, I see what I can do

<v Speaker 4>Well, let's have a look at that pretty mm hmm,
<v Speaker 4>great written, triple alliance, French fleet, complete ascendency.
<v Speaker 2>Oh it's no use, I'm too drowsy. Oh did they
<v Speaker 2>guy go to have a cup of coffee? Herbert, I say,

<v Speaker 2>That's asleep, Herbert.
<v Speaker 7>Wake on?
<v Speaker 2>Oh well, oh you mister Phelps. Yes, I came down
<v Speaker 2>to see my coffee was ready. But I think the
<v Speaker 2>front doorbell just rang bell? Yes, but if you was here,
<v Speaker 2>who rang that bell? What bell?
<v Speaker 4>I told you it was that it's the bell of
<v Speaker 4>the room you was working inside, great sunder mine bell.
<v Speaker 2>There's no one up there. Treaty. Oh good heaven, I
<v Speaker 2>left it on the table.
<v Speaker 4>Quick, Herbert.
<v Speaker 2>We've got to get up there. Something terrible as heavening work.
<v Speaker 2>If you don't, don't run faster, pray collis too late.
<v Speaker 2>Way out, open the door, stand back, he armed. I've
<v Speaker 2>got my army in avolver. There's no one here.
<v Speaker 6>What the treaty?
<v Speaker 2>The treaty is done? Who could have taken it?
<v Speaker 4>No one's been in the front way tonight, and there
<v Speaker 4>was no one in the rooms but yourself, My wife
<v Speaker 4>said so.
<v Speaker 6>Then he must have combed the stairs and his hide
<v Speaker 6>door and stepped out that way too after.
<v Speaker 2>I have it quickly. May may not be too late.
<v Speaker 2>Three men high. Don't you go out?
<v Speaker 4>Says You'll be soaked to the skin. Now there's a
<v Speaker 4>policeman upon her.
<v Speaker 2>Have you seen something, I say, Bobby. There's no rubbling
<v Speaker 2>upon an office. Has anyone passed this way? It's turning
<v Speaker 2>a cord of an hour, sir? And only one had
<v Speaker 2>been sous test in that time. Who was it but
<v Speaker 2>old lady in a bisy sor she seemed in a hurry.
<v Speaker 2>But that was my wife. Which way did he go?
<v Speaker 4>You're just wasting your time, so many three minutes of importance.
<v Speaker 2>It's all right, we'll go back towards Scotland Yards. Oh
<v Speaker 2>this is terrible, heaven terrible. We're ruined.
<v Speaker 4>Never you mind, sir, you'll lose your posts perhaps, but
<v Speaker 4>they can't do nothing, so dreadful to you.
<v Speaker 2>It's not myself I'm thinking up.
<v Speaker 4>It's England.
<v Speaker 2>Well, officers from Scotland Yard were waiting for the charwoman
<v Speaker 2>when she got home. And what did they find? Nothing?
<v Speaker 6>Absolutely nothing? And got oh did they trace him, yes,
<v Speaker 6>mister Herms. But again nothing was found. Oh, I was
<v Speaker 6>finding out of my mind. They had to get a
<v Speaker 6>doctor to take me home. I was delirious.
<v Speaker 2>That's been weeks and these two people got own the charwoman.
<v Speaker 1>They've been under observation ever since, I suppose, yes, with
<v Speaker 1>no results.
<v Speaker 2>You say it had been raining all evening. Yes, but
<v Speaker 2>you found no traces of any kind of the room.
<v Speaker 2>Oh footprints, I mean absolutely none, not.
<v Speaker 1>Even those are a charwoman's muddy boots.
<v Speaker 2>How do you explain that?
<v Speaker 6>Well, the charwomen in the habit of taking off their
<v Speaker 6>boots and wearing just carpet slippers.
<v Speaker 2>No footprints. Eh, has been lightning, must have a cab
<v Speaker 2>and got high that way too. Then if there's the
<v Speaker 2>policeman's not sere not in mister Pelts, could anyone have
<v Speaker 2>been concealed in the room or in the corriccord? Impossible?
<v Speaker 2>There there was no cover of any kind.
<v Speaker 1>Windows thirty pep above the ground knocked on the inside
<v Speaker 1>that it must have been the side door.
<v Speaker 2>Who knew you were to have the treaty in your possession? No,
<v Speaker 2>I take my oath on mate. In your opinion, what
<v Speaker 2>would happen if those papers were to fall into the
<v Speaker 2>hands of a rival government war almost instantaneously? But it's
<v Speaker 2>eight weeks and we're not at war. Therefore it's not
<v Speaker 2>unfair to suppose the treaty hasn't reached them.
<v Speaker 3>I don't imagine the thief took the treaty in order
<v Speaker 3>to frame it.
<v Speaker 2>Quite when he's undoubtedly waiting for a better price. There's
<v Speaker 2>only one clue that puzzles me. What is that bell?
<v Speaker 2>Did someone need to prevent the crime or was it
<v Speaker 2>an accident? If we only knew why the bell was rung,
<v Speaker 2>we should have the solution of this case. It's even
<v Speaker 2>possible if you didn't ha ha. Of course, of course,
<v Speaker 2>what a fool I was not to think of that before,
<v Speaker 2>you think you could? He helped me, possibly, possibly, God
<v Speaker 2>bless you with that, mister Holmes. If we can keep
<v Speaker 2>our courage and our patience, the truth must come out.
<v Speaker 1>But Percy has.
<v Speaker 2>One more adventures to tell you about. You're sure you're
<v Speaker 2>strong enough, darling. Oh, I feel better than I had
<v Speaker 2>for days. Cope with a splendid tonic Henny. And what
<v Speaker 2>was this other incident, mister Phelps.
<v Speaker 6>Well, you see, mister Holmes, last night was the very
<v Speaker 6>first that I stepped out a nurse in my rooms.
<v Speaker 6>I was rather wakeful. I had a nightmare or two,
<v Speaker 6>and suddenly I heard a slight noise, what kind of noise?
<v Speaker 6>Like a mouse gnawing a plank. It grew louder, and
<v Speaker 6>all at once there was a sharp, metallic sneak.
<v Speaker 2>Someone fossing the window. Dis I realized that too.
<v Speaker 6>I jumped out of bed and flung open the shutters.
<v Speaker 6>A man was crouching in the window. He was gone
<v Speaker 6>like a flesh.
<v Speaker 2>What did he look like? I don't really know.
<v Speaker 6>He was wrapped in some sort of cloak which came
<v Speaker 6>across the lower part of his face.
<v Speaker 2>Oh, A one thing, I am sure of He had
<v Speaker 2>a long.
<v Speaker 6>Weapon in his head that looked like a knife. I
<v Speaker 6>saw the gleam of it as he turned to run.
<v Speaker 6>I shouted after him, and then then I to collapse
<v Speaker 6>from the effort. The next thing I knew, I was
<v Speaker 6>surrounded by the entire household. Oh, Joseph in the groom
<v Speaker 6>found marks in the flower bed outside this window. You
<v Speaker 6>can see them from where you sit, hear me.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I'm afraid Joseph and the groom have been a
<v Speaker 2>bit too energetic for me to learn anything from the traces.
<v Speaker 6>The flower bed looks as if it had been trampled
<v Speaker 6>on by an army. Oh, I'm sorry, I should a burglar,
<v Speaker 6>if it was a burglar choose to enter this room.
<v Speaker 2>The dining room windows are much larger and more accessible.
<v Speaker 2>I can't imagine a miss well unless it's a plot
<v Speaker 2>against Percy.
<v Speaker 6>If that sounds a bit melodramatic and not at all
<v Speaker 6>as something in what Miss Harrison says.
<v Speaker 2>So much for Doctor Watson and I to take you
<v Speaker 2>up to London with us, Yes, but he's not very strong.
<v Speaker 2>You know the trip to London will not be nearly
<v Speaker 2>so dangerous to your fiance, say Miss Harrison, as another
<v Speaker 2>night in this room.
<v Speaker 1>Good and another thing, Miss Harrison, you can be very
<v Speaker 1>helpful to answer to mister Helps.
<v Speaker 2>Help, mister Phelps, if you'll do one thing for me,
<v Speaker 2>you may take courage. But I think I can promise
<v Speaker 2>that you will be in no great personal danger. What
<v Speaker 2>is it you want me to do?
<v Speaker 1>Stay in this room until you go to bed tonight.
<v Speaker 1>Don't leave it for an instant. Mister Phelp's reputation and
<v Speaker 1>my whole future made a Pendmic. I'm not going to
<v Speaker 1>ask you to sleep here that when you leave for
<v Speaker 1>the night, I want you to lock the bedroom door
<v Speaker 1>on the outside.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, but look here, something might happen. Not a word
<v Speaker 2>to anyone. It's for his sake. Remember, come in lost everybody,
<v Speaker 2>something especially nice for you.
<v Speaker 4>Come along, Annie, oh Joseph, if you'll excuse me, I
<v Speaker 4>have a slight headache.
<v Speaker 2>I think I'll eat in here about myself.
<v Speaker 4>That really is nice.
<v Speaker 2>I won't be alone. I can't say I enjoy cross
<v Speaker 2>country walks in the middle of the night. Watson, I
<v Speaker 2>thought we were going back to London. That's what you
<v Speaker 2>told everybody. We get on the tram, person and the
<v Speaker 2>nurse and then we get off of the next station
<v Speaker 2>and leave Percy and the nurse to go up to
<v Speaker 2>London alone. It doesn't make sense.
<v Speaker 1>Stop fussing. He'll be all right. I sent him on
<v Speaker 1>the Baker Street. With any luck, we should be there
<v Speaker 1>ourselves in time to have breakast with him.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, but why sneak back to brian Bray like dish?
<v Speaker 2>Not so loud? There's the house now, you can see
<v Speaker 2>its gables in the moonlight. Follow me here through the hedge, says,
<v Speaker 2>But why is the head when the gates over?
<v Speaker 7>Not so loud?
<v Speaker 2>We've got to get as near as a house as
<v Speaker 2>possible without being seen.
<v Speaker 3>I say, there's quite a mystrising, ghostly looking steps of
<v Speaker 3>it over there in the meadow. See look, the lamp
<v Speaker 3>is still litting pleasant at I mean in Gypsy's room.
<v Speaker 3>Miss Allison must have kept her promise.
<v Speaker 7>Yes, there she is reading a book. Now she's put
<v Speaker 7>it down. She's picking up the lamp.
<v Speaker 2>I see, Holmes. She must be getting ready to go
<v Speaker 2>to bed. Quite possibly, Watson. I only hope he doesn't
<v Speaker 2>forget to lock the door on the outside. There she
<v Speaker 2>goes to the dining room. Now the light's gone.
<v Speaker 3>I see the mista.
<v Speaker 4>Creeping up in the meadow of you, if only the
<v Speaker 4>thief doesn't wait until they blanket the us.
<v Speaker 2>Look, the service door is opening.
<v Speaker 4>Excellent.
<v Speaker 7>I didn't think he'd wait very long. Ere he comes
<v Speaker 7>out into the moonlight.
<v Speaker 2>He's wearing a long black cap. He can't see his face.
<v Speaker 7>He's forcing the window.
<v Speaker 2>He's got it open. He's climbing over the sill.
<v Speaker 7>He must getting closer so we can see. I see
<v Speaker 7>islacking the candles on the mantel.
<v Speaker 2>Look, he's putting back the rug.
<v Speaker 7>In the floor.
<v Speaker 2>I thought so. He's looking up a board.
<v Speaker 1>Now, mister Joseph Harrison, if he good enough to hand
<v Speaker 1>out the papers you've just removed from that hiding pace,
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna night. You really have to see clipper Craft
<v Speaker 1>clothes to know their excellence, and it's easy enough to
<v Speaker 1>see them right at your own local independent store. You
<v Speaker 1>have to see them because such superlatively fine quality sold
<v Speaker 1>at such low prices amazes even the experts. Suits are
<v Speaker 1>only forty dollars and forty seventy five top coats and
<v Speaker 1>overcoats are only forty dollars, and sport jackets only twenty
<v Speaker 1>five dollars. The fit is beautiful. The woman's are long wearing.
<v Speaker 1>The tailoring is really superb. The famous clipper Craft Plan
<v Speaker 1>makes this sheer magic possible. Concentrating the buying power of
<v Speaker 1>nine hundred and twenty four leading stores across the nation,
<v Speaker 1>giving you the savings from this group. Buying at the
<v Speaker 1>store you'd trust, selling expensive clothes at inexpensive low prices

<v Speaker 1>But whender Thorns first began to suspect this Harrison fellow,
<v Speaker 1>doctor Watson.
<v Speaker 3>He had that he was expecting to stop back for him.
<v Speaker 3>Mister Harris, I'm afraid that Joseph's character was blacker than
<v Speaker 3>one would judge from his appearance. We learnedly so that
<v Speaker 3>he had lost heavily in dabbling.
<v Speaker 2>In stocks, and he thought he could turn the treaty
<v Speaker 2>into money.
<v Speaker 3>Yes, besides, no one but Joseph could be so anxious
<v Speaker 3>to get into that bedroom because no one but Joseph
<v Speaker 3>could have conceived anything there. Also, the attempt was made
<v Speaker 3>the first night the nurse was out of the way.
<v Speaker 3>Therefore the intrudevers were acquainted.
<v Speaker 2>With the house. But the bell, doctor Watson, why was
<v Speaker 2>that so significant? Where's mister Harris?
<v Speaker 3>It showed that the thief had not come there to
<v Speaker 3>pass his office to steal the papers. He he came
<v Speaker 3>for another reason, bad appointment. As we know, he rang
<v Speaker 3>the bell and then happened to see the papers.
<v Speaker 2>Doctor Watson. Was he convicted?
<v Speaker 3>No, the case was never brought too it would have
<v Speaker 3>been too tilish a position for.
<v Speaker 2>The Foreign Office. He was advised, however, to get out
<v Speaker 2>of the country and stay out and personally marry the
<v Speaker 2>sister doctor.
<v Speaker 3>He did, and to this day I don't believe she
<v Speaker 3>knows why her brother never returns to England.
<v Speaker 1>While that was an exciting case, doctor Watson. And now
<v Speaker 1>what story are we to have next week? Will let
<v Speaker 1>me see?
<v Speaker 3>Next week, I think I'll tell tell about the Cornish
<v Speaker 3>horror or the cradle that rocked itself?

<v Speaker 3>in the survining hashold was about to die. As a
