Speaker 2: hour listening to doctor Watson tell us another exciting adventure
Speaker 2: he shared with his old friend at Master, Detective Sherlock Holmes.

Speaker 2: of American wines, Petrie. And now I know our good
Speaker 2: friend doctor Watson's expecting us. Let's go and enjoy it.
Speaker 2: Good evening, doctor, good evening. Say how are you feeling, doctor,
Speaker 2: all over that attack of flew your head.
Speaker 4: I'm feeling very much better, thank you, my boy. I'm
Speaker 4: still a little weak.
Speaker 5: We old fossils take much longer to get over that
Speaker 5: sort of thing with the new young fellows.
Speaker 2: Well, you take good care of yourself, doctor, You've got
Speaker 2: a lot of friends, you know though.
Speaker 4: I'm very glad to hear that. Thank you, mister Boutell.
Speaker 5: And now settle yourself down and I'll get on with
Speaker 5: tonight's new Sherlock Holmes Adventure. Where did it take place?
Speaker 5: You may not be familiar with the names of Jersey, Guernsey,
Speaker 5: Alderney and Sark, but those are the four principal islands
Speaker 5: that make up the group known as the Channel Island.
Speaker 2: Oh yes, doctor, I have heard of them somewhere in
Speaker 2: the English Channel, aren't they between the southern coast of
Speaker 2: England and the northern coast of France.
Speaker 4: Christ my boy, though I've heard a much doubt.
Speaker 5: If you ever heard of the tiny island on which
Speaker 5: this story happened, It was the island of Goth, a
Speaker 5: minute but self contained spot for the population of just
Speaker 5: under a thousand inhabitants, subsisting.
Speaker 4: And from what I saw of the island in those.
Speaker 5: Days, subsisting very well on its dairy products.
Speaker 1: Was it under the rule of the British government?
Speaker 4: Doctor, you know, mister Bothole, of exactly you see? The
Speaker 4: island belong to a family by the name of Horn.
Speaker 5: The head of the family, who's known as the Senior
Speaker 5: of Goth was an independent ruler of a nominal allegiance
Speaker 5: to the King of England.
Speaker 1: That allegiance was.
Speaker 5: Pressed by one of those traditional ceremonies in which the
Speaker 5: annually presented one pound of freshly churned butter to a
Speaker 5: representative of the British Crown.
Speaker 2: Times haven't changed, my Chad, They dont founder butter is
Speaker 2: tilworth at King's Ryanson. But tell me what were you
Speaker 2: and the great Sherlock Holmes doing on the island of Garth.
Speaker 4: Well, just come into that, my boy. Ca'll give you
Speaker 4: a minute.
Speaker 5: It was in the summer of eighteen hundred and ninety six, when,
Speaker 5: to my utter amazement, Homes informed me that we were
Speaker 5: going to the Island of Garth as the official representatives
Speaker 5: of the British Crown to accept the annual presentation of butter.
Speaker 5: At the time, I must confess I couldn't see why
Speaker 5: Holmes wanted to accept the ridiculous mission. It was only
Speaker 5: as we approached the island in a small fishing boat
Speaker 5: that he told me a great deal more was at
Speaker 5: state than a pound of butter. Unfortunately, mister Botel, I'm
Speaker 5: not much of a sailor, and as the wind was
Speaker 5: blowing hard and the sea racing, I'm afraid I wasn't
Speaker 5: a very intelligent compact jet up Watson, Millsumbiba, I hope
Speaker 5: so I feel rich at home.
Speaker 6: I must say the whole trip seems actually ridiculous to me.
Speaker 5: Plunging and bobbing about in a little boat in a
Speaker 5: raging current is because somebody wants to give somebody else
Speaker 5: far Dear all Watson, you don't really think gard mission
Speaker 5: is so innocuous.
Speaker 2: Do you?
Speaker 4: Then? Why are we going to the island of.
Speaker 1: God D to the island of Garth?
Speaker 2: That's expressed wishings present Ruler math A horn Mouth Horn.
Speaker 2: I know it's extremely spirited, old lady, and the only
Speaker 2: woman who dared tell a certain wisident of Windsor Castle
Speaker 2: that you look devilishly dowdy.
Speaker 1: For an empress.
Speaker 2: It's got you means I mean that once, and that
Speaker 2: Martha Horn's behests are not likely disregarded.
Speaker 1: Obviously she wishes to see me urgently.
Speaker 2: Also, my brother, my cop would pressure on me. He
Speaker 2: reminded me that a visit to God might be closely
Speaker 2: allied to this emerald typeing.
Speaker 1: I wear, of course you recall the origin of the
Speaker 1: ten naturally that.
Speaker 5: Lady it Windsor Castle, gave it to you after our
Speaker 5: little puble last year. I will those stolen plans for
Speaker 5: the Bruce Parkington submarine exactly.
Speaker 1: Oh dear hello.
Speaker 2: But remember that the spy Oberstein had put those pans
Speaker 2: up for aux in all the naval centers of Europe.
Speaker 1: Some hint of their nature must have leaked out.
Speaker 2: It's even possible that other powers may be able by
Speaker 2: now to duplicate the pride of our submarine priests. And
Speaker 2: whoever controls the channel Watson controls England. No, they're dropping anchor,
Speaker 2: and yet we're still a quarter mile out from the ireland.
Speaker 2: Why do you think they're doing that? It comes to
Speaker 2: skip our ears.
Speaker 1: Tell us here is as close to the island as
Speaker 1: we may approach. Michie. We have already since signals. A
Speaker 1: smaller boat is putting out for you.
Speaker 4: It will be here in a little.
Speaker 5: Why thank you a smaller boat, good Lord Poms. You
Speaker 5: were hinting if the naval significance of the island of God,
Speaker 5: Yes or Chef I was what good would it be
Speaker 5: as a pot if even a small boat.
Speaker 4: Like this can only come within half a mile of it.
Speaker 1: But the services will know. But we were speaking of submarines.
Speaker 2: Garth, I learned from the Encyclopedia boasts a magnificent interior cavern.
Speaker 1: Accessible only through underwater channels.
Speaker 5: Scott an ideal natural harbor and dry dock for a
Speaker 5: submarine fleeces.
Speaker 2: I say, And on the control of the island of Garth,
Speaker 2: Watson may well rest the feather British Isles. Now Jack,
Speaker 2: perhaps you will see why Micraft were so anxious for
Speaker 2: us to collect a pound.
Speaker 1: Of butter.
Speaker 4: Holmes. Doesn't it seem wonderful to be on land again,
Speaker 4: First of fishing.
Speaker 5: Smack and then the little rainbow, then the bucket swinging
Speaker 5: us up to the face of the cliff. Now at
Speaker 5: last I can fetch the legs, said, is dady living?
Speaker 1: Get your hands. You will soon get your land legs back.
Speaker 5: Thank, here, have a bit shakier, I must confess. Hello,
Speaker 5: who's that couple walking to.
Speaker 1: Ords welcoming committee? Nodad how you know mister Shella corns?
Speaker 2: Doctor once admit me to present myself and doctor Hooker Oberba.
Speaker 1: How do you do?
Speaker 4: How do you do? Doctor?
Speaker 1: And this is missus.
Speaker 2: Reeves, the housekeep at Horncastle, where you will be staying.
Speaker 1: How do you do?
Speaker 4: How do you do?
Speaker 7: Welcome to the island of God.
Speaker 1: Gentlemen, you are.
Speaker 2: Deputed to come and greet you and take her back
Speaker 2: to the castle. We can walk there across the cliff tops.
Speaker 2: It isn't very fast. Splendid I think my friend will
Speaker 2: appreciate traveling on telefirma once again, dear me here, doctor,
Speaker 2: you are not a good salor.
Speaker 1: Perhaps perhaps about it so I had a miserable causey
Speaker 1: I am sorry to hear it.
Speaker 2: I trust to a short state the castle will be
Speaker 2: some recompense for the journey.
Speaker 8: The former presentation of the butter will take place tonight.
Speaker 8: There will be no reason why you, gentlemen cannot return
Speaker 8: to the mainland tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Oh, thank you, Missus Reeves. But it's more than likely
Speaker 2: that we shall stay on for.
Speaker 1: A few days.
Speaker 6: It will be quite unnecessary.
Speaker 2: I'm afraid that is a matter for Missus Horn and
Speaker 2: ourselves to decide.
Speaker 8: I'm afraid that Missus Horn is incapable of making any
Speaker 8: further decisions.
Speaker 9: What do you mean, madam?
Speaker 2: Obviously you have not heard, but the news is slow
Speaker 2: in reaching the mainland.
Speaker 1: Missus Horn died yesterday. Died, good Lord, natural death person.
Speaker 2: But of course I attended her myself, simple case of
Speaker 2: heart failure.
Speaker 6: The poor lady died in her sleep.
Speaker 9: It shall be beginning our walk to the custody. Hi,
Speaker 9: joh Homes, this changes things. Do you suppose it was
Speaker 9: natural death?
Speaker 2: I suppose nothing, Old Gollo, But in almost twenty years
Speaker 2: of practice, I can recall precisely three clients' actual or
Speaker 2: potential who died natural deaths.
Speaker 1: Come on, let's follow.
Speaker 10: Them, mister shellicombe, Doc Watson.
Speaker 8: This is mister Christopher Horn, grandson of Missus Horn and
Speaker 8: the new.
Speaker 6: Ruler of God.
Speaker 2: Hello, son't ask your fellows to come over here. Too
Speaker 2: bad you have to arrive just as poor our girl
Speaker 2: kicked the bucket. Though, Allow me to up on my
Speaker 2: condolences on your grandmother's death.
Speaker 1: Sod Al, thank you. It was a ghostly business.
Speaker 2: I found a frightful sight.
Speaker 1: There was an awful, an awful silly grin on the
Speaker 1: old Ja's face.
Speaker 8: And don't you think it would be more to the
Speaker 8: point if you were to explain the ceremony and connection
Speaker 8: with tonight's presentation.
Speaker 2: You're right, brevi Leave is a terrible talent, but she
Speaker 2: is efficient and what I do without her? Always ran
Speaker 2: everything for poor old Grannite. Why when the old girl was.
Speaker 8: Ill, Sir Christopher, I gave you a schedule of the
Speaker 8: ceremonies this morning?
Speaker 6: What did you do with it?
Speaker 1: A breeby, I don't know what's roster.
Speaker 6: And I have my own copy in the study.
Speaker 2: That's why I don't know what I'll do without your
Speaker 2: excuse us the moment.
Speaker 4: I'll be back home.
Speaker 9: It's what founder's going on here. That boy is completely
Speaker 9: under the father of Missus Reeves.
Speaker 5: He was trying to tell us something that that frightful
Speaker 5: woman kept changing a subject.
Speaker 2: He spoke of an awful silly grin on the dead
Speaker 2: woman's face. Didn't that suggest something to you, right, Joe?
Speaker 5: That's one of the characteristic symptoms of stricteen poisons.
Speaker 2: And perhaps he was going on to mention the equally
Speaker 2: characteristic arching of the body. We've got to get this
Speaker 2: to monto ourselves for a little while, and you've got
Speaker 2: to examine the body of the dead woman, and it's
Speaker 2: going to be difficult.
Speaker 6: Hmm.
Speaker 2: There's a lot of balcony outside the window. Yes, come along,
Speaker 2: let's see what it leads to.
Speaker 5: The balcony seems to be right around this particular wing
Speaker 5: of the castle. Must have served as a lookout of
Speaker 5: the olden days.
Speaker 4: I wish the balcony were a little wider.
Speaker 5: Must be a shirt drop of a couple of hundred
Speaker 5: feet down to the rocks.
Speaker 2: Blow hello, these msster the windows of the room adjoining
Speaker 2: the one we just came out of. It's got a
Speaker 2: little taser, shall we We may be able to find
Speaker 2: out something.
Speaker 4: Can you see anything?
Speaker 1: Yes, they're in there, Missus Reed's and the boy. She's
Speaker 1: leaving the room. Out of an opportunity, I'll tap on
Speaker 1: the window. He seems he's coming to open it. What
Speaker 1: are you doing out there marrying a few.
Speaker 2: Yes, my boys, it's quite beautiful, mister Van Yes, mister,
Speaker 2: I was a great Admira of your grandmother. I was
Speaker 2: interested in what you were telling me of her death.
Speaker 2: She had a grin on her face.
Speaker 4: She said, yes, it was. It was awful.
Speaker 2: Her her body was all hunched up like a croquet hoop.
Speaker 3: Dr Oberval said, it was perfectly all right, but I must.
Speaker 6: Say, it seems to me it.
Speaker 4: Was far from all right. I'm sure.
Speaker 1: And you started to say something else, What was it?
Speaker 1: Let me see? You said when she was ill? Oh, yes,
Speaker 1: that was a silly business.
Speaker 2: When she was ill, she thought she was in danger
Speaker 2: from poisoning, so she she made Missus Reeves taste all
Speaker 2: her food and drinks. You really, where is your grandmother's
Speaker 2: body now?
Speaker 3: In the west wring the funeral has a bit mono, morney,
Speaker 3: And I see where did missus ree He ran.
Speaker 6: The balcony behind you?
Speaker 8: Gentlemen listening to your conversation with the greatest interest, Christopher, let.
Speaker 1: Me warn you these men are the emissaries.
Speaker 8: Of the British government. They would stop at nothing to
Speaker 8: take the island over. These men are trying to influence
Speaker 8: you against me, against Treebe, who has looked after you
Speaker 8: ever since you were born, and who tries to protect
Speaker 8: you now.
Speaker 7: That your grandmother has gone and you are alone.
Speaker 8: Yes, what is your pride as the head of the
Speaker 8: Horn family, the senor of goth the goth that I'm
Speaker 8: trying to say for you?
Speaker 7: This man is completely unscrupulous.
Speaker 8: He was about to accuse me and murder, weren't you,
Speaker 8: mister Sherlock Holmbe, The.
Speaker 1: Thought had a cut to me.
Speaker 6: Missus Reeves, I've cast it had because.
Speaker 7: You wish to poison Christopher's mind against me.
Speaker 8: Well, mister Holmes, we have no police on the island
Speaker 8: of goth Our.
Speaker 6: Only law is the word.
Speaker 7: Of the Senor, and Christopher now holds that title.
Speaker 6: Senia, what do you say?
Speaker 8: Will you allow an Englishman to blind you by accusing
Speaker 8: me of being a murderess?
Speaker 1: Mister Holmes.
Speaker 3: Dr Watson, I shall meet you at the ceremony tonight.
Speaker 2: Beyond that, I don't care to see jerky good day.
Speaker 8: A shame to spy your plans, isn't it, mister Holmes.
Speaker 5: Well from the soul magnificent Watson, magnificent A murderers who seeks.
Speaker 1: To defeat me by a choosing herself superb.
Speaker 2: Then you gain my dear fellow, and one that must
Speaker 2: be played for finish. Will you have the rest of
Speaker 2: doctor Watson's story in just a second. So I'm just
Speaker 2: going to remind you that right now is one time
Speaker 2: you'd really enjoy a glass of Petrie California Port.
Speaker 1: You couldn't ask for a more delicious wine.
Speaker 2: Petri Port, with its deep, rich red color and its
Speaker 2: heart of the great flavor. As one of America's all
Speaker 2: time favorite wines, Petre Port is wonderful after dinner and
Speaker 2: perfect to serve when company comes.
Speaker 1: Try it. But just remember that when you want the kind.
Speaker 2: Of port I'm talking about, you've got to make sure
Speaker 2: it's Petre Port, because all Petrie wines are good wines.
Speaker 3: Doctor Watson, this is certainly an unusual story.
Speaker 1: You're telling us tonight.
Speaker 2: What happened after missus Reeves left you and Sherlock Holmes
Speaker 2: standing on the balcony.
Speaker 5: We've talked to our rooms and had a quat and
Speaker 5: learnely lunch. Though the great man said little, I could
Speaker 5: see that he was deeply excited that his teen brain
Speaker 5: was evolving some plan which would enable.
Speaker 4: Us to solve the mischie Missus Horn's death.
Speaker 1: After lunch, he started to send.
Speaker 5: The stairs leading to the main hall of GoF Castle.
Speaker 4: As we did so, Home said, there are.
Speaker 1: No dangerous homes. Missus Reeves knows that we're here as
Speaker 1: emissaries the British government.
Speaker 5: Yes, if we didn't return with the butt over in
Speaker 5: a few days, it'd be a British bread not here
Speaker 5: looking for us.
Speaker 2: However, I am in danger of one of my worst defeats.
Speaker 1: My professional pride peaked.
Speaker 2: If only I and Watson there's home. If at any
Speaker 2: time today it's the pure note, don't read it at once,
Speaker 2: but there comes to Missus Reeves.
Speaker 1: Precisely, Matson, I entirely agree.
Speaker 2: If I do not make the test on Missus Horn's
Speaker 2: body within twenty four hours of her death, it will
Speaker 2: be useless. I must make it by three o'clock this afternoon.
Speaker 6: Miss the Home.
Speaker 1: Oh, yes, Missus Reeves.
Speaker 8: I want to apologize for my behavior before lunch.
Speaker 6: I was intolerably rude. Please, whatever my quaras.
Speaker 8: Maybe with British politics, I at least owe to both
Speaker 8: of you the duties of hospitals.
Speaker 1: That's very gracious of you, missus Reeves.
Speaker 2: I wonder would your hospitality also include a personally conducted
Speaker 2: tour of the subterranean caverns for which this isem has
Speaker 2: become internationally famous.
Speaker 6: Would be really interesting.
Speaker 2: Well, i've heard my friend and I won't have the time, monotor,
Speaker 2: We have plenty of time, as long as we're back
Speaker 2: here by three o'clock.
Speaker 7: I'm sure doctor Ouberbolts would be delighted to join us.
Speaker 6: He has made quite a study of.
Speaker 2: The unique rock for me, that's spend it, and it
Speaker 2: should prove a most interesting excursion.
Speaker 5: But Holmes, why do we want to go stomping around
Speaker 5: a lot of dampens?
Speaker 1: Well, they carry exercise?
Speaker 8: What it was?
Speaker 2: Good? Will you lead the way, Missus Reeves, and please
Speaker 2: remember that it's most important that I return.
Speaker 8: Remember, mister Holmes, you must be back here by three o'clock.
Speaker 7: Little further, mister Holmes, and we shall reach the giants cavern.
Speaker 2: Most interesting. Watson and doctor Oberbaut same to have like
Speaker 2: binder somewhat.
Speaker 6: They will be here in a moment. There This is
Speaker 6: a giant cavern.
Speaker 1: A magnificent truly a miracle of nature.
Speaker 2: It's a natural submarine drydock hewn out of the rocks.
Speaker 6: Yes, it's the homes.
Speaker 8: And in the olden days, only the smugglers who inhabited
Speaker 8: this island knew the entrance that leads to this cave.
Speaker 8: The first tenure of g found a cashervun told wealthy
Speaker 8: in here seeks jewels. There are still the remains of
Speaker 8: some of the finest cal the.
Speaker 9: Doors brandis or.
Speaker 1: An incomparable drink.
Speaker 6: Would you care for some? It is our custom whenever
Speaker 6: visitors under us with the.
Speaker 7: Delight there is a natural chelse here in the rocks
Speaker 7: hiding place.
Speaker 6: Oh, I was the home, and here is a class.
Speaker 1: This is a rare privilege. I imagine that very few
Speaker 1: people have been.
Speaker 8: Offered, only our most distinguished visitors.
Speaker 6: I assure you.
Speaker 2: This cavan is completely in a accessible from the outer sea.
Speaker 8: I presume completely, unless, of course, ships could swim under
Speaker 8: the sea.
Speaker 2: Witches you know as well as I they can't dreams
Speaker 2: even outside the imagine eve.
Speaker 6: Indeed, would you care to explore a little deeper? The
Speaker 6: others will be with us soon.
Speaker 4: Dot over the other sei somewhere hell of us.
Speaker 1: Yes they do, don't they homes?
Speaker 8: Homes?
Speaker 4: Where are you?
Speaker 1: Tm me? I'm afraid we cannot follow them. What do
Speaker 1: you mean the next cabin is already cut off by
Speaker 1: the rising tide?
Speaker 4: You mean that cut off?
Speaker 1: I am afraid so, But do not worry, doctor. In
Speaker 1: a few hours, the tide will receive it. They are
Speaker 1: in no danger.
Speaker 3: Just shall I say temporarily more?
Speaker 4: I can't understand.
Speaker 1: I'm getting fund of a sleepy.
Speaker 6: I'm so sorry.
Speaker 7: I'm afraid that we stayed here longer than I intended.
Speaker 6: I fear that we are cut off by the.
Speaker 1: Tide, cut off for the tide.
Speaker 7: There in no danger. In a few whiles we should
Speaker 7: be able to return.
Speaker 8: But I am afraid I cannot get you back at
Speaker 8: three o'clock.
Speaker 6: Which was the time I promised.
Speaker 1: It's vital.
Speaker 3: Hey has absolutely the vitals that I could get.
Speaker 6: Back, and so look sleepy.
Speaker 1: Please keep talking, must keep awake.
Speaker 4: I'm a shall it comes at once?
Speaker 2: I am sorry, DOTRM, but we are not able to
Speaker 2: control the forces of nature. We cannot force the water
Speaker 2: to receive Your friend is in no danger.
Speaker 5: However, he's got a much important test that you must
Speaker 5: make my three o'clock.
Speaker 1: I am afraid that would be impossible.
Speaker 4: I've got to do something you should have come.
Speaker 5: To these blasted times the first place on earth to
Speaker 5: do I that note that Holmes game he told.
Speaker 4: Me to Where did I put it? Ah? Here?
Speaker 5: It is not for mister Shellack coms right to make
Speaker 5: medical tests, Great Scott dot overall.
Speaker 1: Is absolutely necessary for me.
Speaker 4: To turn to the castle at once.
Speaker 1: Indeed not for mister Shellack comes. And now it is
Speaker 1: most important that you return to the castle.
Speaker 2: No, my fine English friend, I am afraid I cannot
Speaker 2: allow you to.
Speaker 1: I don't know how you propose to stop this her
Speaker 1: you say this re while and do you see this stick?
Speaker 1: I warn your head. I know you don't.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry you can't hear me over vote, But when Sharlock.
Speaker 5: Homes gives me orders, I came out.
Speaker 2: Ah, missus Reeves are still trapped.
Speaker 1: Advertise what time is it?
Speaker 8: I'm afraid that you will be a trifle late, So
Speaker 8: you're important appointment of deliberately trapped me here he drug
Speaker 8: the brandy and.
Speaker 1: Kept me a prisoner.
Speaker 6: Did I now? Why should I do that? Miss the home?
Speaker 2: Because you agree with power that's obvious in your domination
Speaker 2: of that person to a weak young man who is
Speaker 2: now senior of Gath I'm sure yours would find sport
Speaker 2: in certain ideology is now a rising in Germany. You
Speaker 2: are a choice of a German doctoress and accomplish in
Speaker 2: your plans.
Speaker 1: Would support that theory.
Speaker 6: And what might my plans be?
Speaker 3: I should say your determined to give gas as a submarine.
Speaker 1: Based to Germany.
Speaker 2: With this island and their power, they could control the channel.
Speaker 7: Very interesting.
Speaker 8: And I suppose, as well as being as responsible for
Speaker 8: Missus Horn's murder.
Speaker 1: You and doctor Oberbau, between you and she was too
Speaker 1: strong for you. Let to get her out of the way.
Speaker 2: You probably made subtle attempts on our life at first,
Speaker 2: the origin of which he did not realize, that which
Speaker 2: caused her adventure.
Speaker 1: It is sent to me my.
Speaker 2: Arrival fossed your hands, and so you and doctor Obervalve
Speaker 2: resorted to the quite unsubtle expedient of poisoning her.
Speaker 6: Oh pure supposition, mister Holmes.
Speaker 7: The only law on this island is Christopher Horn.
Speaker 6: Do you suppose he you believe you?
Speaker 1: I suppose you were.
Speaker 3: You've outwitted me, Missus Reeves.
Speaker 1: I walked into your trap just as you intended me to.
Speaker 7: Then in that case you may collect your pound of butter.
Speaker 6: Tonight and return to the mainland.
Speaker 1: To Mars Reeves. How much longer do we have to
Speaker 1: wait to the tide before we can make our way back.
Speaker 6: To the castle. We can live now.
Speaker 8: We could have left at any time. There's another secret
Speaker 8: entrance that is above the tide level. I merely had
Speaker 8: to make you overstay the hour of your tests. I
Speaker 8: could not risk Christopher's seeing definite proof. Come now I
Speaker 8: shall lead you back, you fool.
Speaker 1: Holmes.
Speaker 4: Holmes, where have you been all this time?
Speaker 1: My dad watching? Did you open the note? Yes, followed
Speaker 1: my instruction?
Speaker 4: Yes, it was as you suspected.
Speaker 1: Thank Kevin Old Chap. Then now we can hoist her
Speaker 1: weather on for touch it comes.
Speaker 8: I'm glad to see, gentlemen, that you have assembled here
Speaker 8: in the same year's room the ceremony of presenting the butters.
Speaker 8: Traditionally it takes place here as soon as Christopher arrives.
Speaker 8: We will explain our customs in this matter, Doctor Watson,
Speaker 8: I trust that hair obervals proved an interesting companion.
Speaker 6: And you're excerta and this.
Speaker 4: Up n indeed most interesting.
Speaker 5: We had a discussion of the relative minutes to the
Speaker 5: walking stick versus the bather I think I was able
Speaker 5: to make my.
Speaker 6: Argument for convicing there is Doctorbbouts.
Speaker 5: Now, I imagine he's lying down. He had all the
Speaker 5: symptoms of impending headache when I saw him last.
Speaker 6: Why are you're smiling, mister Holmes. What's been going on?
Speaker 2: I'm afraid, Missus Reed's, that your plans if miss fire
Speaker 2: rather badly. As soon as mister Horner arrives, I expect
Speaker 2: you will be under arrest for murder and high treason.
Speaker 2: Christopher would never believe you, wouldn't I, Missus Reeves, you
Speaker 2: poisoned my grandmother.
Speaker 6: Christopher, f lies? Have these men been telling you?
Speaker 1: You're the one that's been telling me lies? I believe
Speaker 1: you when you said you've been tasting the old lady's food.
Speaker 2: When Dr Watson showed me the results of his test
Speaker 2: this afternoon, and for the scariest date that the.
Speaker 8: Test could prove nothing after twenty four hours had passed,
Speaker 8: you said so yourself.
Speaker 2: Mister Holak a deliberate time, Missus Reeves, I'm afraid that
Speaker 2: I invented that mythical twenty four hour test. I knew
Speaker 2: that as soon as I mentioned it, you would attempt
Speaker 2: to prevent my carrying it. Out, So I was delighted
Speaker 2: when you fell into my trap. You thought that you
Speaker 2: were shanghaiing me, whereas in reality I was shanghaiing you.
Speaker 2: My job is to prove your gift to the signor
Speaker 2: with your dominant presence away from the household. It was
Speaker 2: easy for doctor Watson to make his testing, you.
Speaker 1: Devil, who knew all the time? Of course I did,
Speaker 1: but I had to deceive you. I'm glad my performance.
Speaker 3: Was sufficiently convince him. By the way, Missus.
Speaker 1: Reeves, the drug brandy was dreadfully clumsy.
Speaker 4: You didn't drink at home.
Speaker 2: Of course I didn't, but it was very unflattering to
Speaker 2: me that Missus Reeves thought I might. Missus Reeves he
Speaker 2: realized what this means, don't you. I'm going to ask
Speaker 2: these gentlemen to take you with dr about back to
Speaker 2: the mainland with them.
Speaker 6: Tomorrow you stand trial in a British court.
Speaker 1: Never I was born on the island of top I
Speaker 1: have lived here all my life, but I shall die.

Speaker 3: a traitor.

Speaker 2: Finished with sech business, mister Horn, I suggest if you
Speaker 2: make sure doctor Uberbau does not escape justice, and that.
Speaker 1: We then performed the ritual presentation of the butter. Yes,
Speaker 1: mister Holmes, the.
Speaker 2: Island of Garth will still fishing good to England, and
Speaker 2: I think it always will.
Speaker 1: Well, Doctor, that was some story.
Speaker 2: So Germany didn't get the Island of Garth after all, No,
Speaker 2: it's about turn in fact.
Speaker 5: In after years the island proved to be an invaluable
Speaker 5: submarine based for England.
Speaker 1: Say what about the pound of butter? Did Holmes get it?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 2: Is?
Speaker 4: Yes, but why are you so interested in the butter?
Speaker 1: Are you kidding? In our house?

Speaker 2: of making fine wine as.
Speaker 1: Their heritage handed.
Speaker 2: Down from father to son from father to son. Believe me,
Speaker 2: when it comes to turning luscious sunripe in California grapes
Speaker 2: into fragrant, delicious wine, the Petrie family really knows how.
Speaker 1: And they're proud of their wine too.
Speaker 2: That's why the name Petrie on a bottle of wine
Speaker 2: really means something.
Speaker 3: It's the personal assurance of the Petree family that.
Speaker 1: Every drop of that wine is good wine. It ought
Speaker 1: to be because Petree took time to bring you good wine.
