<v Speaker 2>Adventures of sherlock Hole. The Petrie family, the family that
<v Speaker 2>took time to bring you good wine, invites you to
<v Speaker 2>listen to doctor Watson tell about an exciting adventure he
<v Speaker 2>shared with his old friend at Master, Detective sherlock Hole.
<v Speaker 1>And I've got something to talk.
<v Speaker 2>About too, How that the poultry shortage is over and
<v Speaker 2>you can get chicken again. You ought to treat yourself
<v Speaker 2>to the best meal in the world, fried chicken Southern style,
<v Speaker 2>accompanied by a chill glass of Petrie California's So Turned Me.
<v Speaker 2>Oh mine, is that something you know? Petris turn is
<v Speaker 2>a wonderful meal time wine. It's a white wine, the
<v Speaker 2>color of pale pale gold. And Petristo Turn is delicate
<v Speaker 2>in flavor, is sort of subtle and kind of intrigue.
<v Speaker 2>We'll just wait and you taste it. You'll really love it.
<v Speaker 2>With that fried picking well, I'll tell you something else.
<v Speaker 2>It's wonderful with fish. If you haven't tried fish or
<v Speaker 2>any kind of seafood together with Petri So Turned well.
<v Speaker 1>I hate to say this, but you don't know, folks.
<v Speaker 1>You just don't know, so.
<v Speaker 2>How about finding out? Just pick up a bottle of
<v Speaker 2>Petri so turn on your way home tomorrow. It's a
<v Speaker 2>Petrie wine, so you know it's good. And now let's
<v Speaker 2>see if our old friend doctor Watson's expected.
<v Speaker 1>She's out on the patio.
<v Speaker 3>Doctor Watson, sit out here this evening, mohoot's well.
<v Speaker 1>Idea, doctor, certainly is a beautiful night. It's top a turn.
<v Speaker 1>Make it so comfortable you have with someone might to
<v Speaker 1>back home. I think I'll stick to a cigarette.
<v Speaker 2>Thanks well, doctor, Are ready for tonight's adventure?
<v Speaker 4>Yes, it's about Ell. I'm already And the Spain story.
<v Speaker 4>It was the Spain story.
<v Speaker 1>How did it begin?
<v Speaker 2>Stormy December night and nineteen hundred, with the rain pelting
<v Speaker 2>against the Baker Street windows?
<v Speaker 1>But perhaps with you and the great show? Are corns
<v Speaker 1>rattling along in a cab beside the party water front,
<v Speaker 1>chasing some desperate.
<v Speaker 4>Quite a good story, telling yourself it's a battel No, no, no.
<v Speaker 4>The adventure I event tell you took place many many
<v Speaker 4>thousands of miles appealed from our Baker Speed headquarters.
<v Speaker 1>The exact in the Indian.
<v Speaker 4>City of Parpaky Purr about two hundred miles north of Calcutta.
<v Speaker 1>It must have been a mighty important case. It made
<v Speaker 1>you both to have a light boughs there was my boy.
<v Speaker 4>Yes, there's an answer in the In the summer of
<v Speaker 4>the eighteen hundred and ninety four, I remember that homes
<v Speaker 4>received the urgent sumans from the Maharajah of parbaty Purr.
<v Speaker 4>After five weeks at sea, we reached Calcutta a few
<v Speaker 4>days later found ourselves on the veranda of our hotel.
<v Speaker 1>And Parbakpur as we set.
<v Speaker 4>That talking to the Maharaja's brother Robert, you can hear
<v Speaker 4>the faint pop of native drums, the haunting whale of
<v Speaker 4>an Indian loop coming.
<v Speaker 1>From the bazaar.
<v Speaker 5>And so, gentlemen, I thought that before I took you
<v Speaker 5>over to my brother's paris, I would tell you something
<v Speaker 5>of the problems that we set him.
<v Speaker 6>An excellent idea is to sing is particularly as you
<v Speaker 6>just tell us your brother and Mahaja is.
<v Speaker 1>Not in it.
<v Speaker 5>Just throw doctor Watson interviews tie him and in any
<v Speaker 5>case his command of the English language is not so
<v Speaker 5>extensive as man.
<v Speaker 1>And now so the problem, if you please.
<v Speaker 5>As to the exact problem, mister Holmes, I am not
<v Speaker 5>completely informed. My dear brother has not seen fit to
<v Speaker 5>confide his entire troubles given to me. In fact, until
<v Speaker 5>your arrival yesterday, I did not even know that you
<v Speaker 5>had been sent for.
<v Speaker 7>But I can tell you that his.
<v Speaker 1>Worries are centered on the safety of the white.
<v Speaker 7>Elephant of Balbutipour.
<v Speaker 5>But postibly you are not aware of white elephants actually
<v Speaker 5>do exist.
<v Speaker 1>Oh yes, so I understand that that's extremely rare.
<v Speaker 6>Oh extremely So'm I thinking that in the East the
<v Speaker 6>white elephants is considered sacred, Quite right, prett you sir well.
<v Speaker 5>In seventeen hundred and fifty, the first white elephant was
<v Speaker 5>presented to my great great grandfather, and with it came elegi,
<v Speaker 5>the legend that the Maharaja's rule would be happy, healthy
<v Speaker 5>and successful only as long as the elephant flourished.
<v Speaker 7>If the animal were to die, then the rain would.
<v Speaker 5>Come to an end, and the Maharajah was doomed to
<v Speaker 5>his Sunday.
<v Speaker 1>Was to say, who's responsible for the origin of this legend?
<v Speaker 5>O A good and wise man who traveled from the
<v Speaker 5>mountains beyond the pall. He it was who brought the
<v Speaker 5>first elephant to my great great grandfather, And how's the
<v Speaker 5>legend worked out in actual practices? Its prophecies have come
<v Speaker 5>frighteningly through doctor Watson. The first elephant was killed by
<v Speaker 5>his mahouts, his own keeper, after my illustriss ancestor had
<v Speaker 5>dismissed the man point coffee. Later, my great great grandfather
<v Speaker 5>was himself killed in a native uprising.
<v Speaker 7>And so has gone on, gentlemen since then.
<v Speaker 1>Amazing, amazing.
<v Speaker 7>When the elephants have died, and they have always died.
<v Speaker 5>The Maharaja of Raipur has died of violentde soon after,
<v Speaker 5>and as each knew Maharaja has succeeded to the title,
<v Speaker 5>the wise man from the beyond the mountains has appeared,
<v Speaker 5>and with him I knew sacred white elephants last appeared
<v Speaker 5>four years ago. When my brother it can't still be
<v Speaker 5>the same man, I need to say that it'll make
<v Speaker 5>him a couple of hundred years.
<v Speaker 7>Old, a trifle less, I fancied.
<v Speaker 1>Seems to me your story is the wrong way around.
<v Speaker 4>Then, have lived to such an ariage, whereas elephants and
<v Speaker 4>noted for the length of life.
<v Speaker 6>Master Watson, but apparently not the sacred white one's part
<v Speaker 6>of the poor mister saying, in the event that your
<v Speaker 6>brother's death, who would become the Maharajah?
<v Speaker 7>I should miss the I can see what you're thinking.
<v Speaker 7>Fair the next day line of exist to the title
<v Speaker 7>would have an excellent logic. We see the animal. The
<v Speaker 7>logic is in is capable.
<v Speaker 1>I thought had no personal implication. I assure you, I'm
<v Speaker 1>very anxious to see this fabulous animal.
<v Speaker 5>The sacred white elephant is never seen except that the
<v Speaker 5>yearly festival that celebrates another anniversary of the Maharaja's rule.
<v Speaker 6>So the animals once a year, and when is the
<v Speaker 6>next anniversary in two weeks time?
<v Speaker 4>Our rival seems to have coincided pretty nicely with the ceremony.
<v Speaker 6>There's Watson, the fact that I'm sure is not coincidental.
<v Speaker 6>I was just saying, I'm very glad that you told
<v Speaker 6>us the legend of the Sacred White Elephant, and now.
<v Speaker 1>I suggested to take us to the palace.
<v Speaker 6>I'm most anxious to make the Maharaja's acquaintance.
<v Speaker 5>This is the council chamber, gentlemen, If you will wait
<v Speaker 5>here a moment, I will go and see if my
<v Speaker 5>brother is well enough to done so.
<v Speaker 1>I'm not easily impressed. This palace. This agree, and it's magnificent.
<v Speaker 6>Yes, it does rather take one's breath, way doesn't it does?
<v Speaker 1>Far is the finest marble.
<v Speaker 6>And unless I'm much mistaken, that magnificent drug is a
<v Speaker 6>genuine Bara.
<v Speaker 1>Yes, by job it is.
<v Speaker 4>I could swear the staircase we mounted the moment had
<v Speaker 4>railings of solid gold.
<v Speaker 6>It is a country of paradox, populace beyond the dreams
<v Speaker 6>of midas shoulders with the Dardist property.
<v Speaker 4>Yet looking at the palace like this, it's not hard
<v Speaker 4>to see why Indians called the Baptist jewel and the
<v Speaker 4>diadem of the British Empire.
<v Speaker 1>What's that? Is an elephant company, the sacred white.
<v Speaker 6>One, undoubtedly you will call the Maharaja's brother told us
<v Speaker 6>it's the only one of the palous It is an
<v Speaker 6>odd sound, it's a very comforting one. Animal seems to
<v Speaker 6>be in the best of health.
<v Speaker 1>Wait, can't you give him? And who come in?
<v Speaker 6>And my friend and I are waiting for an audience
<v Speaker 6>for this highness. No one can hold audience with the Maharaja.
<v Speaker 1>Please to leave now.
<v Speaker 6>Okay, my good fellow, please, what's we traveled twelve thousand
<v Speaker 6>miles to see the Maharaja Sir as his request.
<v Speaker 1>In any case, his brother is with him now arranging
<v Speaker 1>an audience.
<v Speaker 8>I am Mother Maharaja's physician and chief counselor, and I
<v Speaker 8>tell you you cannot hold audience today.
<v Speaker 6>And I tell you that I haven't the contestant intention
<v Speaker 6>of leaving the palace for not seeing him.
<v Speaker 8>You're the fi authority of Mother Silah, I Brooke laid out.
<v Speaker 1>Now I want you if I haven't. Oh, I'm glad
<v Speaker 1>you're back.
<v Speaker 4>Mister seeing this fellow tell us that we couldn't see
<v Speaker 4>your brother a tether more.
<v Speaker 6>He seems to labor under the disapprehension that didn't have
<v Speaker 6>us thrown bodily out of the palace.
<v Speaker 7>Mad you do not understand.
<v Speaker 5>These are the gentleman my brother wishes to see from England.
<v Speaker 1>He has sent for them.
<v Speaker 8>It was against my counsel they were summoned. Now good
<v Speaker 8>will come up this follow me, gentlemen.
<v Speaker 1>My brother the Maharaja.
<v Speaker 7>I will see you now, but please do not stay
<v Speaker 7>with him. Fu low here far from well.
<v Speaker 9>Mister Sherlock Holmes, doctor Watson, I'm so happy you have
<v Speaker 9>arrived here safety.
<v Speaker 1>It was great imposition to ask you to travel so far.
<v Speaker 1>I'm not at all, sir. I only hope he can
<v Speaker 1>prove of material assistance to you, Rangie.
<v Speaker 5>Yes, Irava, I wish you would bring it doctor Watson
<v Speaker 5>to examine you, know.
<v Speaker 4>Not to suggest myself say in fact that I brought
<v Speaker 4>my medical bag along just in case.
<v Speaker 10>Mother would not approve. Mada not believe in occidental medicine.
<v Speaker 10>I do not trust Mada. I do not think he
<v Speaker 10>wishes you to get well.
<v Speaker 5>Please, Rangie, let the doctor examine you very well, but.
<v Speaker 9>You not tell mad And now seems to be the
<v Speaker 9>trouble your hanness. My eyes they torture me. Then day
<v Speaker 9>they torture me. I noticed they seem very inflameable. Let
<v Speaker 9>me take a look at them, open them a.
<v Speaker 1>Little wider, Pleasir. I rap burn night and day night
<v Speaker 1>they burn.
<v Speaker 4>It's just sickly redden. However, eything very very serious, sir.
<v Speaker 4>But you're suffering fromise, a case of what.
<v Speaker 1>We call conductive vitis. What you do relief? Paint eye
<v Speaker 1>drops will give you relief and no time, sir. I
<v Speaker 1>have some here in my bag.
<v Speaker 9>Oh, thank you, thank you. Perhaps medicine will help, yes,
<v Speaker 9>I'm sure it will, sir. Here you are this small
<v Speaker 9>bottle and an eye dropper. But this is an eye dropper.
<v Speaker 9>Just put a few drops in the.
<v Speaker 4>Corner of each other, and I'm suld you will get
<v Speaker 4>some relief in.
<v Speaker 1>No time of talk. Thank you.
<v Speaker 7>Doctor watch you think there is nothing seriously wrong.
<v Speaker 5>Doctor Mother gave it as his opinion that my brother's
<v Speaker 5>eyesight was in serious dangers.
<v Speaker 4>Upon my saying so, I think it more likely that
<v Speaker 4>my medical knowledgey exceeds his. I can assure you there's
<v Speaker 4>nothing says to the matter with your brother's eyes.
<v Speaker 1>I'm happy you say so.
<v Speaker 9>Now you will please excuse me while I take medication
<v Speaker 9>and rest a little.
<v Speaker 1>We discussed my problems later.
<v Speaker 9>Cord has already prepared for you impact.
<v Speaker 6>My mister Holm not at all her though in the interim,
<v Speaker 6>I should like to imply my time to the poor
<v Speaker 6>ban speaking your sacred white elephant.
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, that I cannot alone. I must talk to.
<v Speaker 6>You first, I think say you will do well to
<v Speaker 6>give me the mission to see the animal. And I
<v Speaker 6>already have my suspicions as to your reason for bringing
<v Speaker 6>me here, and it will be best if I'm complete informed.
<v Speaker 1>We have our discussion very well. I can't do no harm. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>take ringing, show ring to sup Crow. He's keeper of animal.
<v Speaker 1>Sup Crow will let you into elephant house when you
<v Speaker 1>see ring. Thank you, sir, and please rest comfortably. I'm
<v Speaker 1>sure that your worries on here. Come on, Watson.
<v Speaker 4>Oh well, they told us this is the elephant house
<v Speaker 4>when Fanna doesn't keep her open the door.
<v Speaker 1>And that because his mind is preoccupied with music.
<v Speaker 8>Not again.
<v Speaker 1>All uh huh, there's that time, my time. I must
<v Speaker 1>be looking here for five or six minutes and I
<v Speaker 1>am can he ha money? So how's your technical?
<v Speaker 7>You do take me?
<v Speaker 1>Said Maharaja? Said kumko astematic deal. But I just app
<v Speaker 1>Holmes and Maharaja's rings to do the trick. He didn't
<v Speaker 1>want to let us in until you showed it to him.
<v Speaker 1>Payful seven offensive growth cheer chill hoddi fu dear FuG here,
<v Speaker 1>that's as eyes up. What's happened, homes, Elephants just disappeared?
<v Speaker 4>What disappeared? That's ridiculous. Elephants don't just disappear to.
<v Speaker 1>Your curup, calliboo? What I just saw? What where's he going?
<v Speaker 6>I told him to go to the Maharaja, give him
<v Speaker 6>the news he is to tell it to No one
<v Speaker 6>else but homes.
<v Speaker 1>Is this ridiculous?
<v Speaker 4>We heard the animal company here, that's some half an
<v Speaker 4>hour ago. How can an elephant be spirited away and
<v Speaker 4>tell him.
<v Speaker 1>Out of time?
<v Speaker 6>And that's what we have to find out, my dear colone,
<v Speaker 6>I have often the Indian rope trick. Now we have
<v Speaker 6>a first hand opportunity of starting you mispread the problem
<v Speaker 6>of the disappearing elephants.
<v Speaker 1>Omes.
<v Speaker 4>This is possible and half an hour searching this elephant house.
<v Speaker 4>After all, an elephant isn't exactly insignificant. I doubt if
<v Speaker 4>you're going to find it out of those boards in
<v Speaker 4>the corner through Watson.
<v Speaker 6>Nonetheless, that aren't interested too tooose what clues he chap?
<v Speaker 1>Blood stains? It's Scott. You're not suggesting that elephants. It's
<v Speaker 1>hard to.
<v Speaker 6>Say, though I would venture the opinion that it would
<v Speaker 6>require the blood of several human copies to produce an
<v Speaker 6>equivalent different blood.
<v Speaker 1>In any case, you will notice that these stains aren't
<v Speaker 1>dried and old. Hello, that must be the elephant keeper
<v Speaker 1>back from the palace.
<v Speaker 8>Its matter Psian doctor Watson at once you must conduct
<v Speaker 8>to the puse a longster.
<v Speaker 1>This is the matter, yea death has come to yead
<v Speaker 1>great heaven.
<v Speaker 6>Jack.
<v Speaker 8>What happened, Sucro, keeper of the elephant kinder Maharja? He
<v Speaker 8>said he had the most important message to deliver.
<v Speaker 1>He had I told him to deliberate. Then what happened?
<v Speaker 8>A few moments later, I cries. I went to Maharaja's
<v Speaker 8>room and found him in delirium. He was heaved by
<v Speaker 8>the elephant having disappeared. His brother and I tried to
<v Speaker 8>give comfort to him, but we could do nothing. His
<v Speaker 8>breathing became more and more, Robert, Finally it stopped altogether.
<v Speaker 6>The toomb of parbody forest fulfilled once again. The elephant
<v Speaker 6>has gone on. The Maharaja's wain has ended. Come on,
<v Speaker 6>let's go to the palace.
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I must to examine the body at once. Oh,
<v Speaker 1>certainly it was a natural deaference to matter positiveness. No
<v Speaker 1>symptoms of poisoning.
<v Speaker 8>For example, mister Holmes, I have read some of your
<v Speaker 8>sensational stories in which obscure deaths are attributed to a
<v Speaker 8>subtle Oriental poison unknown to Western science. I can assure
<v Speaker 8>you that if the Maharajah has been poisoned, it has
<v Speaker 8>been caused.
<v Speaker 1>By no poison known to me. When did he last
<v Speaker 1>eat over eight hours ago?
<v Speaker 4>I possibly died of shock shop cannysteria when you use
<v Speaker 4>the elephant adventist, Yes it's possible, but it's murdered just
<v Speaker 4>to say.
<v Speaker 1>Why do you see that, mister Puln.
<v Speaker 6>Because whoever caused the elephant that disappeared did it with
<v Speaker 6>a deliberate contention of ending the Maharasha's reign, a diabolical
<v Speaker 6>plot and one that I intend to overcome before this
<v Speaker 6>day is out.
<v Speaker 2>Doctor Watson's story will continue in just a second. So
<v Speaker 2>all I'm going to say is if you like a
<v Speaker 2>swell red wine with your dinner, well then you should
<v Speaker 2>know about Patrick California Burgundy. Patrick Burgundy is a rich,
<v Speaker 2>hearty red wine. It's just wonderful with hamburger and beef
<v Speaker 2>stew and pot roast and chops and not just about
<v Speaker 2>any meat or meat dish you can think of. And
<v Speaker 2>of course if you can get hold of a steak
<v Speaker 2>or a prime rib, well then you've just got to
<v Speaker 2>serve that with Patrick Burgundy. Patrick Burgundy is a swell
<v Speaker 2>meal time wine, the best friend a good meal ever had. Okay,
<v Speaker 2>and now back to tonight's news show, Like Holmes Adventer
<v Speaker 2>the case of the vanishing element. Tell me, doctor, did
<v Speaker 2>you examine the Mahazi's body?
<v Speaker 1>Yes, of course I didn't.
<v Speaker 4>Mister about tell Holmes was convinced that the Maharaja had
<v Speaker 4>been murdered, that I could find no trace of power play.
<v Speaker 4>After my examination, I joined Homes in our quarters and
<v Speaker 4>I gave him my drea.
<v Speaker 1>Looks like natural death to me.
<v Speaker 4>Home, Okase there's a poison and that I could see,
<v Speaker 4>because it's hard to be certain without in the top.
<v Speaker 1>Ten if you suggest one, yes, but the new Maharaji
<v Speaker 1>won't hear of it. It's against their religion.
<v Speaker 6>Apparent players, I'm afraid of that. Meantime, I've been conducting
<v Speaker 6>a cross examination.
<v Speaker 1>Of some of the palace servants. Oh why do you
<v Speaker 1>find an offensively that all of them heard the elephant
<v Speaker 1>something this morning?
<v Speaker 4>Suggest how the animal might have been smuggled out to
<v Speaker 4>the palace ground.
<v Speaker 6>They insisted that such a feat would be impossible without
<v Speaker 6>their knowledge.
<v Speaker 1>Well, what's the next move, Homes until get the one.
<v Speaker 6>Person who I'm sure can give us the full story
<v Speaker 6>of the elephant's disappearance. It's keep that the number we
<v Speaker 6>haven't seen him since the permits it the palace. I
<v Speaker 6>suggest we return to the elephant house and have a
<v Speaker 6>persuasive talk for him.
<v Speaker 4>This was to the house, the only one that's near
<v Speaker 4>the elephant. Ten ram, take a looking place, isn't it extreme?
<v Speaker 1>Late? T Crow Cawn tell me that he's finished too.
<v Speaker 1>Businesses get on my nerves. I think under the secondstances,
<v Speaker 1>we'll take the liberty of entering.
<v Speaker 9>Tu Crow.
<v Speaker 4>Look home, look on the floor. We're too late, horrible side.
<v Speaker 4>His bolt has been cut.
<v Speaker 1>Obviously another murderer. He knew the secret of the vanishing elephant.
<v Speaker 1>Let's look around. But it was quite quite a musician.
<v Speaker 1>Look at this weird as softment of instruments make lute?
<v Speaker 1>We heard him playing that today as we approached the
<v Speaker 1>elephant house. What's this? Looks like a sort of jazz megaphone,
<v Speaker 1>the musical instrument of some kind that the mouth piece here?
<v Speaker 1>What kind of noise it makes?
<v Speaker 4>The instrument sounds exactly like like an elephant trumpeting trumps.
<v Speaker 6>Before come on watching back to the palace as fast
<v Speaker 6>as you like some cardio.
<v Speaker 1>That is, as.
<v Speaker 7>You say, you have solved the problem with missing elephants, and.
<v Speaker 1>Also because of your brother's death. I am Sucrose murder.
<v Speaker 7>Indeed, that is very important.
<v Speaker 1>Would you both sit down, please perceive mister Holmes, thank you.
<v Speaker 6>And first, the elephant did not vanish today. The beast
<v Speaker 6>must live natural death months ago. All that happened day
<v Speaker 6>was that I discovered its absence.
<v Speaker 7>Are you suggesting that my brother knew the beast was dead?
<v Speaker 6>I answer, but he was afraid to publish the news.
<v Speaker 6>He knew that his rule would fall into a state
<v Speaker 6>of chaos if the fact were known. You yourself said,
<v Speaker 6>have told us how strong is the native.
<v Speaker 1>Belief in this legend?
<v Speaker 6>How these of the elephant nubtrusively over a period of time.
<v Speaker 1>The bloodstains and the elephant house would indicate that the.
<v Speaker 6>Animal had been cut up into dispersal fragments, which could
<v Speaker 6>be removed by the faithful sucral without attracting suspicion. All
<v Speaker 6>this time, though, the elephant horn was blown at suitable
<v Speaker 6>intervals to indicate that the sacred animal was still alive.
<v Speaker 4>If Mad knew the beast was dead, why he did
<v Speaker 4>a shot he received the news.
<v Speaker 5>I think the answer to that question, doctor Watson, would
<v Speaker 5>be that my brother died of shame when he knew
<v Speaker 5>that his impasture had been discovered.
<v Speaker 7>Follow if Barbet.
<v Speaker 6>Serlected on my my saying, so now I am certain
<v Speaker 6>the reason your brother brought me to your country was
<v Speaker 6>to reveal that imposture to me. You the day was
<v Speaker 6>coming soon when he must show the elephant to his people.
<v Speaker 6>The festival would have been held in two weeks time.
<v Speaker 1>I think you told the sir.
<v Speaker 6>I imagine that he wanted me to devise a method
<v Speaker 6>of smuggling a new white elephant into the palace grounds
<v Speaker 6>before that time.
<v Speaker 1>Tell me, mister shallock Hole, where did my brother die
<v Speaker 1>to day? Because he was murdered? Does the supercrow was murdered?
<v Speaker 6>Later murdered who very ingeniously by poison, But not as
<v Speaker 6>you might expect by any subtle Eastern poison.
<v Speaker 1>No, one of the most recent of Western poisons was used.
<v Speaker 6>A poison unknown to Oriental silence delirium followed by a
<v Speaker 6>strangulated breathing is highly typical of the newly discovered poison hiosiamin.
<v Speaker 1>He had need to watson, but you receive this Hiosiamine
<v Speaker 1>was administered to my brother. Good heavens life.
<v Speaker 6>The poison penetrates the unusual ease through the membranes of
<v Speaker 6>the eyes if you will recall if you're right, but
<v Speaker 6>Joey does must have been that position. Fllow Ma, mother,
<v Speaker 6>no man, Chapman. This has been a case of confusions.
<v Speaker 6>Let's do a little fear thinking now, ja we.
<v Speaker 1>You see we were deceived by the apparent seq into
<v Speaker 1>the dentists. He discarded the elephant.
<v Speaker 6>Missing and thought that pact that caused the Maharaja's death,
<v Speaker 6>when as his murder.
<v Speaker 1>Was quite a separate matter.
<v Speaker 4>The poison must have been placed in the eye drops
<v Speaker 4>while we were in the elephant house.
<v Speaker 1>As I can get that.
<v Speaker 6>And when the murderer saw how the problem of the
<v Speaker 6>missing elephant conclused us, he killed its unfortunate keeper to
<v Speaker 6>prevent us from.
<v Speaker 1>Learning the truth. Yes, your strangely silent mister singh am
<v Speaker 1>I mister, I am fascinated by your flow, and I
<v Speaker 1>saidable lodgic.
<v Speaker 5>Course, you realize that I am now the Maharaja, the.
<v Speaker 7>King of kings, an absolute.
<v Speaker 4>Ruler with all power, including that of the police.
<v Speaker 7>Do you do you care to denounce the murderer.
<v Speaker 1>To know it's time to button small partfoios. I'm well
<v Speaker 1>aware that.
<v Speaker 6>You studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh at the
<v Speaker 6>most of the opportunity and the knowledge to kill your brother.
<v Speaker 1>Murder of Sucro was probably performed by an underla.
<v Speaker 6>Very clever man, a very clever man, never enough to
<v Speaker 6>realize that an absolute ruler, ruler with all powers including that.
<v Speaker 1>Of the police, is not apt to denounce them. So
<v Speaker 1>again your logic is unassable.
<v Speaker 5>Good Bye, gentlemen, I trust your voice home will be
<v Speaker 5>a pleasant I want.
<v Speaker 6>You said that I saw take a full report of
<v Speaker 6>my findings in this case of the British Commissioner of
<v Speaker 6>the State.
<v Speaker 1>Why should he do?
<v Speaker 7>Good Bye, gentlemen.
<v Speaker 6>I'm it's my blood boil to think that he can't
<v Speaker 6>be brought to justice. He can, and he will be
<v Speaker 6>stabilized laws. If the occident cannot be impassed here, then
<v Speaker 6>we must find him with his own weapons.
<v Speaker 1>What do you mean home if we have a farewell
<v Speaker 1>talk with mister.
<v Speaker 6>Murder the dead Maharajah's physician, friend and counselor. But this
<v Speaker 6>is a terrible story you have told me, mister Holmes,
<v Speaker 6>my brother druler murdered by his own brother, and yet
<v Speaker 6>he cannot be made to account for his crimes.
<v Speaker 1>You can be sir, if you will help, mister.
<v Speaker 7>Home, of course I will.
<v Speaker 1>What can I do? Plan tenny eye drops before they're
<v Speaker 1>destroyed wid you.
<v Speaker 6>Haven't analyzed by Western scientists and forward the reports to
<v Speaker 6>me in London.
<v Speaker 1>I'll take the necessary action.
<v Speaker 8>I will try to do that, mister Holmes. But if
<v Speaker 8>I fail, there is an other way I can avenge
<v Speaker 8>my master's death.
<v Speaker 1>In a few weeks.
<v Speaker 8>In you Maharaja will be enthroned.
<v Speaker 1>Now I understand you, sir. The wise man from beyond
<v Speaker 1>the mountains.
<v Speaker 6>Of Nepal will bring a new white elephant, perhaps some
<v Speaker 6>elephants that will not live very long.
<v Speaker 8>You understand me, perfect, mister Holmes. I can promise you
<v Speaker 8>that the elephant will die in a very short time,
<v Speaker 8>and with it they knew Maharajah, my master shall be avenged.
<v Speaker 1>That was quite a story, doctor, quite a story. And
<v Speaker 1>tell me what did happened to the next white elephant?
<v Speaker 4>I an only co instance. It died the day after
<v Speaker 4>new Margins and Furnman. That Scumner was self killed an
<v Speaker 4>uprising that occurred just a few days later.
<v Speaker 1>You know something, I think I could be very happy
<v Speaker 1>as an Indian Maharada.
<v Speaker 2>Beautiful palace, beautiful women, beautiful jewels.
<v Speaker 1>Every year on my birthday, the natives would give me
<v Speaker 1>my weight and goal. You know, I could learn to
<v Speaker 1>like that, that is if I tried.
<v Speaker 4>Yes, And every week you'd speak your subjects over the
<v Speaker 4>radio and tell them all about Petrie wine.
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, now, wait a minute, doctor, I don't always
<v Speaker 2>talk about Petrie wine.
<v Speaker 1>That's right, you don't always talk about Petrey wine. You've
<v Speaker 1>got to sleep sometime, all right, Go on, kid me
<v Speaker 1>about it.
<v Speaker 2>The Petrie wine is worth talking about. After all, what
<v Speaker 2>other wine has the tradition behind it the Petrie wine has.
<v Speaker 1>Don't forget.
<v Speaker 2>The Petrie family has been making Petrie wine for generations.
<v Speaker 2>It's way back before there were electric lights and telephones
<v Speaker 2>and things like that. They've been making Petrie wine since
<v Speaker 2>the eighteen hundreds, and handing down from father to son,
<v Speaker 2>from father to son.
<v Speaker 1>Every bit of valuable knowledge and experience. There's no doubt
<v Speaker 1>about it.
<v Speaker 2>The Petrie family really knows how to turn luscious grapes
<v Speaker 2>into wonderful wine.
<v Speaker 1>That's why you can't go wrong with the Petrie wine.
<v Speaker 2>Patrey took time to bring you good wine. Well, doctor,
<v Speaker 2>hows about giving us a clue?
