But you're such a storyteller yourself. Doctor, 51 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:53,800 how about you've kissed it? 52 00:02:54,159 --> 00:02:57,879 Speaker 2: No, it's about it. I'm I've had quite enough courage. 53 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,759 Speaker 1: Courage made Cottagetonne. 54 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,159 Speaker 3: Because the Blonistone is set in a most inaccessible position 55 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,479 on the outside wall, to kiss it discustom me to 56 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:11,759 luwer the candidate for eloquence over the rampart Head forest 57 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,400 with a friend hanging on to his heels. 58 00:03:14,159 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 1: From the top of the castle. That sound dangerous, Doctin 59 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,280 It was my boy, so much so that in recent 60 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,000 years a great robant Spikes has put round the parapet 61 00:03:23,159 --> 00:03:25,159 to prevent an accident, though of course, at the time 62 00:03:25,199 --> 00:03:27,960 to Night's story took place, there was no such guard, 63 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,800 and I have feeling that an accident did take place. 64 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 3: Telling me tell you the story from the beginning. Sherlock 65 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,159 Holmes and I were staying in the city of Cork, 66 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,240 where the Great Manager saw the singular affair, which the 67 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:42,879 local press had referred. 68 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,439 Speaker 2: To as Epricorn murders. 69 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,199 Speaker 3: A few days before departure for England, we paid a 70 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,080 visit to Blannet Castle. I must confess that I had 71 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,759 a certain desire to test the mileculous powers attributed to 72 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,840 the blondistone. I changed my mind, however, as Holmes and 73 00:03:57,879 --> 00:04:00,240 I stood there high on the turrets of blod A 74 00:04:00,319 --> 00:04:03,560 Castle and watched to terrify this ship being hauled up 75 00:04:03,599 --> 00:04:04,800 by his ankles and. 76 00:04:04,879 --> 00:04:08,039 Speaker 4: Yelling at the top of his voice, pull me up, 77 00:04:08,319 --> 00:04:11,240 Pull me up, Wiki, I think I'm going to faith. 78 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 3: Scott had no idea of kissing the Barani stone was 79 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,000 such a hazardous proceeding years. 80 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 1: It would seem that eloquence could be more easily obtained 81 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,560 than by hanging suspended by one's ankles from a battlement 82 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,639 with one hundred foot dropped below and kissing a piece 83 00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:25,040 of stone. 84 00:04:25,439 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 2: Never do that again.

Yeah, did you see the glances which mister Hankins's 243 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,399 partner and his wife exchanged as the brawl started. There 244 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:28,639 was more menace to him in those glances than in 245 00:11:28,799 --> 00:11:31,080 all the threats of all the little people in Ireland. 246 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought that there was something between them.

Hold on to me, 289 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:38,879 hold on to him. 290 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:40,519 Speaker 4: Oh he's gone. 291 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 2: I just couldn't hold him away. 292 00:13:44,399 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 4: Heavens, no man could survive that drop. 293 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 1: It's a cochormant. You deliberately let your partner slip to 294 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:54,559 his death. This is murder, which I don't understand. I'm 295 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,240 a strong man. But he just vanished out her hands 296 00:13:57,279 --> 00:13:59,240 leg like a grease peak. Let me see your hands, 297 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:03,480 mister Cochorman's dreadful, dreadful. Now's grease on your hands. Greee 298 00:14:03,919 --> 00:14:05,840 and with a faint trace of bootplacking. 299 00:14:06,039 --> 00:14:06,799 Speaker 2: Good lord home. 300 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 1: That means Watson. But someone knowing that Hankin was going 301 00:14:10,519 --> 00:14:13,080 to kiss the bonistone smear his boots with grease so 302 00:14:13,279 --> 00:14:15,720 that he would slip out of the grasp of whoever 303 00:14:15,919 --> 00:14:18,639 was holding him. There's clever a method of indirect long 304 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:20,320 distance murderers ever I've encountered. 305 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:30,639 Speaker 2: You hear the. 306 00:14:30,639 --> 00:14:32,879 Speaker 1: Remainder of Doc Watson's story in just a second. So 307 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,519 I'm going to remind you that Patrick California's sherry is 308 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,960 not only wonderful before dinner, but it's good almost any time. 309 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,399 If you had to choose just one wine for almost 310 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,879 any occasion, that wine would be Petrie sherry. Petrie sherry 311 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,559 is a perfect wine to serve in the afternoon or 312 00:14:50,639 --> 00:14:54,000 in the evening. It's good before dinner, yes, but it's 313 00:14:54,039 --> 00:14:56,919 swell after dinner too. In fact, with a bottle of 314 00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,519 Petrie sherry on your shelf, you got practically a small 315 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:04,399 sized wine side. So get a bottle of Petrie sherry soon. 316 00:15:05,039 --> 00:15:07,600 And remember you can't miss with any wine that has 317 00:15:07,679 --> 00:15:11,200 the letters P E, T R I on the label, 318 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:16,919 because all Petrie wine is good wine. But doctor Watson, 319 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,519 this is quite a story you're telling us tonight. What 320 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,279 happened next? I suppose you went down into the castle 321 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:23,879 grounds and looked for the dead man's bottle. 322 00:15:24,159 --> 00:15:26,919 Speaker 3: We tried to mister Boutell, but the athologies were curiously 323 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,080 and cooperative. It refused to let a search, insisting of 324 00:15:30,159 --> 00:15:31,600 the police be called first. 325 00:15:31,799 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 2: And so mister Botel. 326 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 3: Half an hour after the tragedy, Holmes and I found 327 00:15:36,399 --> 00:15:37,919 ourselves standing in the Talley. 328 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,279 Speaker 4: Police station as we told the story for the local sergeant. 329 00:15:43,039 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: Sure the stands be prayers, mister Holmes, this is a 330 00:15:45,279 --> 00:15:48,279 terrible story you've told me. Tomorrow I'll be after resting 331 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,279 Sean O'Flaherty. He's a waiter at the end, the one 332 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,720 who sings that he is, that he is any things 333 00:15:53,759 --> 00:15:56,799 like a breath of spring. I'm sorry to see him hang. 334 00:15:56,919 --> 00:15:59,480 Good to you. No proof that he was possible for 335 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,360 the murder, proof, you say, sir, But I can't arrest 336 00:16:02,399 --> 00:16:04,720 a big man of factory man like mister Copper, can I? 337 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,039 Speaker 4: Or a fine lady like missus Hank. 338 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: But you can't arrest a man without any evidence of guilt. 339 00:16:09,799 --> 00:16:12,840 I can't, can't. I then suppose I tell you that 340 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,679 Shan o. Faddy cleans the boats at the hotel where 341 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:16,840 mister Hank can be staying. 342 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,559 Speaker 3: They then he had the perfect opportunity for the greasing 343 00:16:20,759 --> 00:16:22,240 of Hankins boots this morning. 344 00:16:22,799 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 2: And we know he had a motive for harming him. 345 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 1: Your r sir, and for what I have hoarded the 346 00:16:27,399 --> 00:16:30,559 dead man's behavior. Last night half a dozen people could 347 00:16:30,559 --> 00:16:32,679 have heard him make the bet that he'd kissed the 348 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,720 blinding stone.

That you love your 507 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,759 late partner's wife, and she you and proud to admit that, 508 00:23:29,839 --> 00:23:31,960 mister Holmes, and now that she's a widow, I can 509 00:23:32,039 --> 00:23:34,480 safely opened. But what how are you implying that you 510 00:23:34,759 --> 00:23:37,680 murdered your partner but put the grease on your own boot, Sir? 511 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,839 I just found a jar with missus Hank. That's my 512 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,920 discargeon was all part of my little plan. As to 513 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:45,599 the grease on my boots, I can diss I placed 514 00:23:45,599 --> 00:23:48,519 it there myself, just as I planted the jar of 515 00:23:48,599 --> 00:23:53,640 grease in your bag. Miss Afoard accomplished two ends. It 516 00:23:53,759 --> 00:23:56,519 forced you, mister Cochran, into a portrayal of your love. 517 00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,880 But what was more important to from what Dr Watson's 518 00:24:00,039 --> 00:24:02,960 natural reactions were that a man holding the greased boots 519 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,880 could not fail to realize that fact at once, you 520 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,359 brazenly committed murder. Pa Paulaverty eyes mister Cochran, hoping to 521 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,359 appear as a person victim of another's plot. If theory 522 00:24:13,519 --> 00:24:16,000 is an ingenious one, siphone, But how can you prove it? 523 00:24:16,519 --> 00:24:19,359 I can clean that my hands are unusually insensitive, not 524 00:24:19,519 --> 00:24:21,799 the delicate fingers of a doctor like your friend.
