M Life in your country is very discomfusting at times. I am not yet
used to it. Oh, you'll get used to with him said, Oh,
but you, missill, do not seem accustomed to it. You were
rather upset when I imprudent. Oh. I was talking to Jane on the
telephone. She gets a little confusing at times. She's with someone named Wilma.
Now she says, he's my client. I don't know what the thing
Wilma. Yes, I don't know. Oh. Oh, there she is
now. But Jane, Jane, stay right here. I think you'll like
Jane. I'll go meet here. You will be here right here, Jane.
Come on, Jane, Wilmer can find the table himself. Come on,
Jane, there's someone over at my table. I'd like to have you
meet my healthy? Is you on time? The next time we have a
date? You did it? I think you look so cute for that.
Dallas is coming. She doesn't know what she's missing. You don't talk about
that. Oh, here we are, Jane. I'd like to have you
meet fine you you mean the potted palm? Or is it you that's potted?
I don't see anyone but a potted palm. Peter, have you open.
It's funny she was here a minute ago. She was sitting right here.
Comes Wilmer. Peter, don't be cross. I brought you a nice
new client. Wilmer's. We'd always wanted for murder. Wilmur doesn't look quite
dead enough to murder who it's Wilmer's friend. Really, she's wanted for murdering
her husband. That's Wilmer's widow. Oh, Jane, listen to me.
I'm a civil lawyer, not a criminal. And I Peter, I never
said you were a criminal, but you certainly must be civil to Wilmos.
Oh, Jane, you're a Wilmer over here, Wilmer right here, Well
it's this way, Peter. I'm at Wilmer this morning, right after I
telephoned you. Are. Perhaps i'd better explain, Miss Sherlock. I don't
think mister Blossom quite understands what our connection is. Please do wilmur Well,
you see, mister Blossom, I would pardon me, but do you wear
it all the time? Peter, Wilma's only trying to tell you about his
widow. Go on, Wilma. Yes, the widow of TP. Randolph
is a special friend of mine, and I'm I'm afraid she's wanted for murder.
Murder, yes, mister Randolph's murder. You see, Peter. They
found mister Randolph in a car this morning, parked in front of a bar
called the Manhole. Someone had shot him, and now they can't find Missus
Randolph anywhere. Well, now, isn't that nice? Oh no, it's
not nice at all. They've been looking everywhere for Missus Randolph and I'm frightened.
I don't really know. You see, the police found her fingerprints all
over the steering wheel of the car. Who's will miss widow Missus Randolph?
You see, Peter, Mister Randolph was a very rich man, and Missus
Randolph would get all his money if he were dead. Oh yes, but
she really couldn't have anything to do with it, not for money. Money,
Wilmer is a very good motive for murder. Then you think Wilma's widow
is guilty, very guilty. But oh, oh, dear eye, she
couldn't be. She's not that kind of a girl. Na y Vaughn.
Who why Yvonne, Yvonne Randall? You take the case, Peter, just
a minute, chain, Wilmur. What does Yvonne look like? Oh,
she's beautiful. I remember the first time I saw her in a flame red
dress that seemed to set the sparkles in her hair. Ranch action. But
ohh yes, how did you know? Never mind, Wilmur, I'll take
the case. That's wonderful of you, Peter. Oh, thank you,
mister Blossom. And when can I meet your widow, missus Randall? Oh?
I know she'll get in touch with me pretty soon. I handled all
of mister rand House money. Yvonne loves money, I'm sure she does.
Peter. Do you think you can help Wilmer's widow? Maybe, But Wilmer,
I'll have to surrender her to the just Attorney's office as a matter of
form. After I've talked to her. Oh, I understand perfectly. I'll
let her know as soon as she shows up. You can trust Peter.
Wilmer. Oh, I hope, so did you say mister Randolph was killed
in front of the manhole? It's a bar or something over on the bowery,
Peter. I must get back to my office now. You will excuse
me, of course, Wilmer. Yes. By the way, miss Sherwack,
when you find that ring we were looking for, will you have this
engraved on the inside. Oh, yes, Wilma, I'll take care of
it. Goodbye, good goodbye, funny little guy. Yeah, I wonder,
Peter, come on, we've got to get busy. I can't do
anything until Wilmer finds missus Randolph James. Oh, yes, we can.
We can find a murderer. It's a manhole. It's not a nice name,
Peter. Oh sometimes, Jane. I wonder why awfully dark for the
afternoon here, Peter, Yes, isn't it? Might as well go to
the bar. Bartenders usually know everything. A charming afternoon, folks. What'll
it be? Two bourbons here? It'll be fine, A very exemplary choice.
I'll fetch him forth with what ad fein love? Peter will have to
ask him what happened this morning. I took the liberty of bringing you an
afterthought a ginger ale. Oh that's very sweet of you. Be anything else?
No, pardon me, sir. Is the barrette a standard party of
costume? Oh Barrett, Oh the barrette? No? No, I lord
for a friend, I see great old love hat. No man, now
see here? You are, Peter sensitive about the barrette. Understandable. We
are wondering if you were here this morning when they found the body of mister
Randolph in front. I not only was here, I found it. I
know nothing of the affair, and it's not my fault. Someone was crashing
enough to pocket corps in front of my shop and fight him. All my
business is not talking but selling pose a not a brother. Um. Ever,
hear of a girl named Yvonne. I repeat, I know nothing.
Perhaps I'd better attend to my awake and a bat call me of feeing.
We didn't get very much information from him, did we, Peter that much?
He just refused to talk. I'll bet he knows something. I know
something. Who are you that is unimportant? You know, Ivan? Ivonne?
I don't know what do you know? Ivonne? What is which I
do know? Is this? You want to keep your health. You forget
about Ivan, Captain Dingle, Dan Sherlock. What are you doing? Peter
and I just talk ingim for for a drink, didn't we? Peter?
Yes, hello, Michelotte us the blossom? What's low sopping? Any murders
today? They haven't got any to solve, They're all salved. What do
you mean, cap'n Dingo? Just what I said? You mean you've already
solved the Randolph killing, the one that happened this morning. I'll taken care
of Kiddy's not a thing for you to do. But that ca't dingy,
Jane, Please don't call me dinghy. Oh I'm sorry. Murdered Randolph Ivan
Randolph his wife, she called him, drove him here, parked the car
and left him. But are you sure? Very certain? I think your
prince were all over the stirring wheel, you know, Jane, I had
a feeling you and Peter b snooping around here. But once you're too late
to butt in, it's all sewed up. Yeah, all sat up.
Not a stitch shown. Even Tollason knows, right, Jee. Well,
where are you holding missus Randolph? Oh we haven't had time to find it
yet. Oh I see well cap'n Dingle. Peter and I were just dropping
by. You see, we wanted to get a little information information, What
kind of information? Peter's taking a new case. He's missus Randolph's lawyer.
He's what I am? Her lawyer? Oh you are a chant chanp what's
gonna happen? Now? Have you picked a swowcase to switch to Kremlin la
on? You don't ever got her off? We got her dead to rights.
The man hole is a very interesting plate. Any place is interesting that
has a dead body parked in front of it in the morning. No,
the most frightening man spoke to Peter and me while we were in there.
Oh, if you mean a bartener, Miss Charlotte, he is a little
scrolly, Isn't it strange? Isn't better? I don't mean the bartender.
There was another man. He was wearing a barret, just like Peters.
Oh, yes, I meant to ask you about that, Peter. Is
it comfortable? Dingle? I disliked as cute as Peters. This man was
tall and kind of skinny, with a scar on his sing. Hey,
cheep, that's Tollison. Did you say he had a scar on his face?
Yes, the poor fellow wants to run into a plate glass window or
something. In his time, he was on or just one of our prize
suspects, that's all. Which way did he gone? I don't know he
was in the barn gone get in that Hollison? Fright, Chip? What's
he got to do with this? Nothing? Only he was a great friend
of missus Randolphs who tried to swindle her husband with some phony invention. We
think he was in on it. Well, what makes you think that missus
Randolph was seen with him three or four times in the Markham Grow. We
found that out I used to meet there. She only married Randolph for his
money, the Markham Grew. And you two might have let our prize suspect
get away. We'll find Missus Randolph sooner or later. But Andrey's clever enough
to slip out of town. Why didn't Jing? We didn't know he was
important. He was important. And don't call me tacky, no insight,
Shafe BARKI doesn't speak very good English, all right, Chafe? What's a
fort with he's got away? Come on, tell us and let's get back
in there. I'll make this bartend to talk of us the last thing.
I come on Peter will go, Oh no, Jane, that's thing,
will take care of that. But Peter, they're going to try to find
out about Andrey pity home. Well, then come on, Peter, let's
go in the man hole. No, we're going over to Markham's. I've
got to protect my client. Peter, you are going about this case the
wrong way. Why should we go to all the trouble of questioning the head
waiter at the Markham Grill? We kept our health, didn't we. Well?
Yeah, and we don't know where Andre would be Wilmer's back and we'll
soon know. I wonder if we found Missus Randolph. Yet, Missus Randolph
as the kind of woman you don't just climb. Jane, what do you
mean, Peter, Blonde's like Missus Randolph are a rare dag Oh Wilmer Waldo
public accountant and business affairs. And what that means, Peter, a high
price business agent. People like Randolph often use them to handle their money.
Oh, and this is probably what he did for him and Jane. If
you need someone to help you handle your money, you have to have a
lot of it. I suppose so. But Wilmer's the type, yes,
isn't the type for what Peter didn't Lady, Wilmer's hiding you bon under his
this Wilmer's probably hiding plenty. Doesn't look like anyone's here, Peter. I
wonder what could have happened to Wilmer. He was such a nice little man.
He wouldn't Oh you too, Yes, Peter, and I want to
see you, Wilmur. Hi, Wilmer would so long. I came as
fast as I could. I was in the file, right in the drawer.
Come in, Come in. You have a nice office, Wilmer,
A little bit unlike you. Oh do you think so? Red? Plush
leather chairs and chromium lights. I like nice things, of course you do,
Wilmer. Where's he Van? I don't know, mister Blossom. I
haven't seen her yet, Wilmer. Peter and I haven't handled now, Peter,
you look Wilmer. I don't think you've been telling me all you know?
Oh, Peter, that is nice. You shouldn't talk to Wilmer that
way. Why well, can't you see you've upset him? And besides you're
bigger than he is. Peter. But but I have told you all I
know. Yvonne Randolph is wanted for her husband's murder. Look, Wilmer,
do you know Andre Petijon? Andre Petijon, No, No, I don't
think so. He's a Frenchman from France. Oh. Yes, he talked
to Peter and me today. He seemed to know missus Randolph very well.
He did, I mean he did very well, in fact, so well.
When Jane and I went to the manhole to try and get a little
information from the bartender, he walked over and told us to forget all about
I bar. Oh dear, oh dear, that's terrible, It's terrible.
I wonder what connection he has with all this. We're wondering the same thing,
Wilmer. Are you sure you don't know Andre Pettijean. No, no,
I don't think I do. You said that once with Peter. This
has all been very trying. You're going to be more trying any minute now,
What do you mean, Wilmer, Peter and I went over to the
Markham Grill before we came here. They Markham on West, the same.
Oh I've been there. They serve awfully nice day. Yes, Wilmer,
you were eating dinner rather early, weren't you. We weren't eating dinner well,
right, goodness? We were talking to the head waiters a matter of
fact. Alonzo. Yes, Oh he's an awfully nice fellow. I know
his mother too. She's very Now everybody's just fine. Do you know what
Alonzo told us Wilmer, No, what that he saw you and Andre Petterson
having dinner together there the night before mister Randolph was murdered. Well, so,
I, oh you did. Didn't you just tell us you never heard
of Andre Peterson? Well I hadn't really, Oh, dear you, you're
confusing me again. Pettijean is wanted by the police. Wilmer isn't wanted Missus
Randolph has wanted. Wilm remembers he doesn't remember. No one knows anything.
Who am I? Are you Peter Blossom? And I'm going to marry you?
Oh? Isn't that super? Wilmer? How did you get to know
Andre? I met him at mister Randolph's laboratory and thirty ninth three. He
was a very nice chap I know he would be. Yes, he was
a friend of mister Randolph's. Come to think of, he was a friend
of mister Randolph's. Uh huh. He had an invention he was trying to
interest mister Randolphin. It was something for reclaiming wool. Oh, dear,
no, I advised against it. I see good Randolph usually go by what
you said, Wilman. Always your memory isn't any good, Wilmer. But
I want to know how Andrea knew mister Randolph. Well, Andrea knew Missus
Randolph in Europe before she met mister Randolph in Paris. I believe, and
mister Randolph married her and the game the in odd States. And then Andre
showed up with his invention, and I told mister Randolph not to buy it.
Oh, I haven't seen Andre since he was pretty angry naturally. Well,
you see, he and Missus Randolph were good friends once. And then
Andrea came here and looked them up and tried to sell mister Randolph and invention.
Yes, mister Randolph didn't like him. He thought that that what did
Hank Wilman that maybe Missus Randolph and Andre were beginning to like each other again.
Missus Randolph was like that. No one of the police are looking for
Andre. They think he and Missus Randolph. They'll never find him. Missus
Sherlock, did you find the ring yet? I want it to be just
right to ring. Oh the ring you hired me to buy for you yesterday.
Yes, and don't forget the inscription. No, no, I won't
you gave it to me earlier getting married Wilman. Yes, as soon as
I can too. What is it, Jane? Oh you don't think,
Peter. Oh dear, oh dear, the way Wilmer. I'll take her
out in the air, all right, Jane, you weren't a very good
actress. Why, Peter, we found out everything we wanted to know.
There wasn't anymore, oh, Jane. I was just beginning to get some
information. She found out the important thing we did, I mean, did
we? What worry vonn is hiding? Uh? Oh wait a minute,
Jane huld right here, driver, wait class driver? And what is this?
I love, Jane. I don't mind wearing a beret for you.
I don't even mind meeting Wilmer and getting a client I don't want. But
why the alleyway? And you see, Peter, this is that laboratory of
mister Randolph. That's just dandy. Remember Wilmer said he had the laboratory.
I'm thirty Night Street. This is it? And what has this to do
with Yvonne? She's hiding here. Vonn Randolph is hiding here. I just
know it, Oh, Jane, For God's sakes, good the door is
not locked. Jane. Will you please tell me what makes you think Vonn
Randolph might be hiding here? Else could she hide? Peter. Don't want
to let anyone know we're here, Jane, Jane, where are you here?
Oh? I can't see a blasted thing. Can you find a light
switch or something? No? I can't even find myself. For heaven's sake,
Jane, we don't wind up in jail for housebreaking or something. What
day did you hear something? No, not a thing? Have you matched?
Yeah? Yeah, just a minute. There there's a light switch,
Peter. I'm good. I'll turn the lights on it. Oh, Jane,
what is it? It's dasia ooh and full of bullet holes. He's
dead enough to pass corner's inspection. Horrible had a good hunch, Darling.
But it looks like we found the wrong person, and there there's nothing to
do but phone homicide. And I haven't know about this. Maybe there's a
telephone in the other room, Peter, Peter, Peter, one, is
that if you found Yvonne? Yes, he found Yvone you killed Peter.
No, a little one. He is not dead yet. What do you
mean he's not quite obvious? A life for a life, That saying is
known in every country. But Peter didn't kill anyone. What about my Andre?
What about him? He is dead and you and this man killed hih?
No, you're wrong, we found him dead. We didn't kill Andre,
really we didn't. I loved Andre and know he dead. Nothing else.
Please, we came here to help you. We really did help me.
Why Peter is your lawyer? My lawyer? What could a lawyer do
for me? I wanted for murder? The police are looking for me even
No. I never loved my husband. But I did not kill you.
And Andre tried to swindle him? Oh killed him? Oh, Wilmer,
please drop your gun, Ivan you yes, it's me, drop your gun.
Vne you your mother? Wilmer murderer? Yes, he killed my Olban.
I had to miss Sherlock. He was in the way, Oh will
and now I'm going to have to kill you two. Oh and mister Blossom
too bad? He was so nice. Why I went to all the trouble
of killing mister Randolph and then this Andre, petty John came along. I
might have known what. I could never love anyone, but Andre, I
made the mistake of loving you Ivan, And now I am going to kill
kill my re But Ivan, I had to you. Oh don't cry.
I'm oddly sorry. I'll kill you now and then you won't feel badly anymore.
Not better, Jane, I learned that in law school. I didn't
know you were so muscular. Who are wonderful with you? Oh? You
look what you did to my head? I am very sorry. I apologize,
that's all right, it was nothing hit me. Oh my goodness,
Peter's painted feel better, Darling. I think so. I was lucky.
You can't do Wilmer was going to start shooting everyone, all right, Peter,
Jane, you've scoped me again, Missus Randolph and the clear and we're
bucking Wilmer for both murders. She I don't quite know how all has happened.
We were looking for Missus Randolph and then Collison. Will you please stick
to nothing but holding them? Once we got them, let me handle the
catching, okay, Chief, But I call uson right, Chief. We
were pretty good. I think, well you were great. How did you
get mixed up with those two? Anyway? You see Jane and I were
going to have lunch together Pierre's. It's a French restaurant, of course,
only I had to do some errands and I was late because of Wilmer.
I was buying him an engagement Jane, how did you meet Wilma with him?
I was doing the Arran before and then I hired Peter to be missus
Randolph's lawyers. Please go on? And I phoned Beth Alison. She told
me she couldn't make lunch. And after all, Jee tell me, frankly,
are you with miss Charlotte? Always go on? Jane. Oh,
I telephone Peter and Captain Dingle. Are you sure you're with me? Jane.
I've gone through this so many times. It always comes out sooner or
later. Well, Peter and I called on Wilmer at his office and Wilmer
told us about the laboratory. And then I remembered what Wilmer wanted to inscribed
on his engagement ring. Go on, I told Petra I had a headache,
go on, Jane, and didn't we found Yvonne? Oh? That
does it? Please? Now? Jane? Please? Will you try to
make some sense? Please tust this once Yvonne pot we'd killed Andre, but
we didn't. Wilmer killed him right after we saw Andre this morning at the
manhole. And Jane, just a minute, how did we actually get tangled
up in all this? A sixth day, four dollar question? Don't you
see see what? Damn Mi Charlock. I don't think you never did well,
Dinghy, and don't call me dinghy. I thought I told you the
ring was going to be inscribed from w to Why so what? J Well?
Wilma wanted to marry Yvonne. He ordered an engagement ring for her yesterday
before missus Randolph was a widow. Ah, Jane, it's so good to
sit down. Does you had still hurt? Peter? Not when you rub
it that way, Jane, I feel kind of sorry for Wilmer. You
have the oddest sense of sympathy. Jane killed everybody to marry Van and then
it didn't worry Peter. Yes, come on, we've got to get started.
It started for where Jane? She is? We're meeting beth Alas for
a midnight dinner. Oh no, Jane, you are, Peter. She's
expecting it, Peter. Yes, Jane, where your beret. Beth will
love it? Polly. Oh, here we go again. Oh, it's
that way all the time with Jane and Peter, especially Peter, how would
you like to wear a beret? Well, next week, Jane doesn't make
Peter wear a beret, but they do get involved with a big game hunter
who says he's being hunted in the case of the Pink Elephant. So be
with us next week at this same time when you meet Miss Sherlock. Meeting
Miss Sherlock, produced by day Vale, written by Don Thompson and E.
Jack Newman, with original music composed and played by Milton Charles, is presented
from Columbia Square in Hollywood, Murray Wagner speaking, This is CBS, the
Columbia Broadcasting System. Welcome back Well. The opening to this series is kind
of reminiscent of another series, The Adventure of the Falcon, and the way
that series began for most of its run is that the Falcon would answer the
phone and would say and would say, this is the Falcon, and there
would be a woman on the line asking for a date, and he would
decline. I have no idea whether that influenced that or it's just coincidental,
but it's an interesting little coincidence. Now, despite the obscurity of the series,
it did have some quality work on it. Of course, the script
was written by E. Jack Newman and the musical score was by Eddie Dunstetter.
And one thing I think Dunsteater did interesting on this one is with the
French theme, is that they played Lamarcier, but they kind of buried the
tembo and made each particular rendition of it seemed a little bit different. So
that was a really nice top. Now, I do want to know that
this episode is often mislabeled. It's labeled Wilbur and the Widow, and even
the Radio Gold Index, which is a bit more authoritative, labeled it Wilmot
and the Widow. Now, Jane claims to have solved the case when she
realized that he had ordered an engraved wedding ring with his and Ivan's initials on
it before the murder was committed. Now that's the type of move that automatically
the killer should be sent over to file events. But given that she was
awfully shocked in the scene that Wilmer was the murderer, so that seemed to
be a little bit inconsistent. Also, it's kind of weird that the whole
Beret thing was that big of a deal. Yeah, and that everybody was
commenting on it. Why did Peter have one of those around in the house?
And the s only thing about it is that was something like a beret,
it seems like, particularly since they left the French restaurant in a car,
that's the type of thing you could leave in a car. And even
if it didn't occur to you to leave it in a car, a beret
is nice as opposed to other hats that I think you should be able to
get it into an inside pocket in your jacket. And I guess we are
at our conclusion of Meet Miss Sherlock. Of course, we've only got two
episodes, so we don't know if these are representative of the series, but
the mysteries were only so so in the couple weeks we heard Jane was lickable
enough and Peter I think mate was a nice uptight counterbalance, and so I'd
be curious if there were other episodes with perhaps slightly better cases. But there's
a good cast and some really nice musical touches from Eddie dun Stetter. Listener
comments and feedback now and Tim rots in Adam. My wife and I attended
the performance of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra this evening. There was a piece by
Schumann and one by Mozart. The last piece was Symphony number one in F
minor by Dmitri Shostakovich. I'd forgotten that this was the symphony that your podcast
theme is taken from. However, when the second movement started, I remembered
the music was not exactly your theme, but was reminiscent of it. Then,
when the oboe solo followed by the piano part began, a picture immediately
popped into my mind of a kilted Adam Graham commenting on the day's old time
radio detective show. That reminded me of how much enjoyment that I have received
from your podcast over the years. Thanks again for all you do to keep
the podcast going. Best of everything in the coming year to you and yours
well. Thank you so much, Tim, and I appreciate it. I
think you're the second person in the last few months to mention having heard the
Shastakovich pizza elsewhere and being reminded of the podcast. It's great to hear,
and it's great to people listening to Shastakovich. I've heard a few additional pieces
of his on Jay Nordlinger's Excellent Music for a While podcast, and he was
just a phenomenal and very talented writer of both the serious but also some of
the lighter music that some people tend to frown upon. So thanks again,
appreciate an email. Now it's time to thank our Patreon supporter of the day.

listen for Dangerous Assignment, where let's help yourself. There's a stuff that originally
belong to the tours that we think these foreign agents murdered and imprisoned routine stuff
proposed curios. Yeah, that's suitcase that you're going through a knob belong to
a Harold Davis. Yeah, according to my information, three guys landed here
in Miama, and we're whisked away in the limousine. Yeah, that's right.
When their car crashed, they're all killed, and that's where we recover
this luggage in those identification papers. But it didn't take us long to discover
that the men in the car didn't belong to this stuff. What kind of
a plane did They landed? Regular passenger plane Caribbean Airlines from Trinidad. What
is it? Hey, let's picture here in the suitcase. Is this the
real Davis? Oh yeah, yeah, it's Davis. Sorry, well maybe
you should say it was Davis. A girl with him in the picture.
It's not bad, not bad at all, say the guy who is impersonating
Davis flew in from Trinidad, And yeah, that's right. You think that
this picture was taken there? I know itwise, I recognize the hotel in
the background. Well, in other words, this picture shows that the real
Davis was in Trinidad, but the man who flew up here from Trinidad wasn't
Davis. Well, that means that means that Trinidad is my next stop.
