Speaker 1: Pet Tree Wine brings you Masil Rappone and Nigel Bruce
and the New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. The Petrie family,
the family that took time to bring you good wine.
Invite you to listen to Doctor Watson tell us another
story about his old friend, that master Detective Sherlock Holmes.
And incidentally, I'd like to tell you about a swell
American custom, the custom of serving sherry wine just before
dinner Petrie California sherry. You know, especially when you have
guests while you're waiting for that call to the dinner table,
there's nothing better than a good glass that good Petree sherry.
You don't need fancy glasses for Petree sherry, No, sir.
That wine tastes good out of any glass. And it
looks good too, beautifully clear and the color of precious amber.
Just try that Petrie sherry and you'll feel like smacking
your lips after every oh insane. Patty makes two kinds
of sherry, the regular sherry and Petree Pale dry sherry,
just to make sure you get the perfect sherry for
the whole family. Don't buy one, buy two, but do
be sure the sherry you buy is Petrie, Sherry Petrie,
the proudest name and the history of American wine. Now,
I'm sure our good friend doctor Watson's ready for us.
Let's go in and join it.
Speaker 2: Oh there you are, mister bart It.
Speaker 1: Doctor, say, where are the puppies of Selings?
Speaker 3: Mister, don't think it's about time you began to refer
to them as the dogs are almost a year old?
Speaker 1: You know, I stand corrected.
Speaker 2: Where are the dogs? Well, they had.
Speaker 4: Another furious battle with a dead seal on the beach.
Speaker 3: Today my housekeeper, Missus West is giving them a much
needed bond.
Speaker 1: They certainly haven't aversion to seals, don't they. Well, doctor,
are you already with the nice news shell like CON's adventure?
Speaker 3: Yes, my boy, And as yesterday it was from Patrick's day.
I decided to tell you a story that took place
in Ireland a few years before the turn of the century.
Speaker 4: I imagine that you've heard of kissing the blarnistone.
Speaker 1: Oh yes, doctor, though I've never understood exactly what it meant.
Speaker 3: Well, let me explain it to you, because the ceremony
plays a very important part in the story tonight. Blanid
Castle is an imposing fifteenth century ruin a few miles
outside the town of Cork. The castle is many his
stories high, and in the foremost tower, the famous blonistone
is situated.
Speaker 1: What's supposed to be the point in kissing it, Doctor,
The stone.
Speaker 3: Is considered a powerful talisman, and the legend runs at
whoever kisses it is endowed with eloquence for life.
Speaker 1: To say, doctor, if I ever get over to Ireland,
I'll certainly kiss that stone. But you're such a storyteller yourself. Doctor,
how about you've kissed it?
Speaker 2: No, it's about it. I'm I've had quite enough courage.
Speaker 1: Courage made Cottagetonne.
Speaker 3: Because the Blonistone is set in a most inaccessible position
on the outside wall, to kiss it discustom me to
luwer the candidate for eloquence over the rampart Head forest
with a friend hanging on to his heels.
Speaker 1: From the top of the castle. That sound dangerous, Doctin
It was my boy, so much so that in recent
years a great robant Spikes has put round the parapet
to prevent an accident, though of course, at the time
to Night's story took place, there was no such guard,
and I have feeling that an accident did take place.
Speaker 3: Telling me tell you the story from the beginning. Sherlock
Holmes and I were staying in the city of Cork,
where the Great Manager saw the singular affair, which the
local press had referred.
Speaker 2: To as Epricorn murders.
Speaker 3: A few days before departure for England, we paid a
visit to Blannet Castle. I must confess that I had
a certain desire to test the mileculous powers attributed to
the blondistone. I changed my mind, however, as Holmes and
I stood there high on the turrets of blod A
Castle and watched to terrify this ship being hauled up
by his ankles and.
Speaker 4: Yelling at the top of his voice, pull me up,
Pull me up, Wiki, I think I'm going to faith.
Speaker 3: Scott had no idea of kissing the Barani stone was
such a hazardous proceeding years.
Speaker 1: It would seem that eloquence could be more easily obtained
than by hanging suspended by one's ankles from a battlement
with one hundred foot dropped below and kissing a piece
of stone.
Speaker 2: Never do that again. I don't blame the puller.
Speaker 1: And yet my dir chat on our way over here,
you expressed a sneaking desire to kiss the stone yourself.
I don't be very happy to hold your ankles if
you want to try the experiment than after witnessing the
servant chased Roman, then I suggested we make our way
back downstairs. I don't think there's much more to be
seen up here.
Speaker 4: Well by the way homes.
Speaker 3: Do you know the origin of the superstition regarding the blantone.
Speaker 1: Yes, I do o chat the stone was done. The
stone dates back to the middle of the fifteenth century.
A certain Cormack McCarty called the Strong. I descend him
of the ancient kings of Munster, builder of this castle.
Chance one day to save an old woman from drowning.
Her gratitude, she off at Cornack a golden tongue which
would have a power to influence men and women, friends
and foes. As he willed, She told him to mont
the battleman kiss a certain stone in the wall five
feet below the gabrier running around the top. He putry
directions and obtained all the fluent e suasiveness she had promised.
Speaker 2: The story is spread in the Barnis Stone.
Speaker 1: There has been a magnet of pilgrims over sudden that
person's legend homes.
Speaker 4: Yes, old Chap, Tomorrow's Patrick's day.
Speaker 3: I bet there'll be quite a bit of excitement in
the village tonight.
Speaker 4: Don't you think it'd be rather fun to play a
visit to one of the local inns.
Speaker 1: Splendid idea old jab our rather arduous work here in
Nowland is concluded, and I think we're more than entitles.
Would it be gayety.
Speaker 2: In lovel.
Speaker 1: Pretty today?
Speaker 2: But I first met with lame along.
Speaker 1: Charming my charming awater and seeing it is working very
well too, just the same, I wish someone would come
and take an hour of.
Speaker 2: Oh there's a bombad. I'll see if I can catch her.
Speaker 5: Hi, miss miss?
Speaker 1: Would you gentlemen be after what and something?
Speaker 2: Yes, my dear, my friend, and I would like a
little refreshment. And what would you suggest?
Speaker 4: What would I suggest?
Speaker 2: You?
Speaker 5: Runner, o, big good?
Speaker 6: There is but one drink a gentleman like yourself should
be after pouring down you.
Speaker 4: And that's the cream of carning Bora whiskey.
Speaker 2: It is soft, near.
Speaker 6: Hurting, a natia glow with a good feeling, so so
that the little people of the after visiting you.
Speaker 1: F sounds delightful, bring two glasses, we.
Speaker 4: Know, yes, yes, your honner.
Speaker 3: I must say I never heard an English bombad go
into such rhapsodies over in Nipper Whist.
Speaker 1: The Irish are distinctive or colorful in their speech. It's
an interesting fact, though, Watson, that the Irish are curiously
unrewarding in the critical world. England, Scots, America, Australia have
all produced classics of crime, but the Irish murder is
almost without exception, the purely physical affairs of hot You
said that rather regretfully homes nobody a chat. No, no, no,
that's what's look This rather florid gentlemen coming towards our
table looks to me.
Speaker 2: As if he's a little under the weather.
Speaker 1: You fellows have got to have a drink with me.
Speaker 2: Oh thank you, sir, thank you. But we've just ordered one.
Speaker 1: I've gotta have it with me. I went to the
races at Corked today and made a killing. I'm going
by all the drinks. Certain I'm afraid that you're afraid of.
I'll sit down with you for a moment. My name's Hanking,
Jeffrey Hanking. What's your man is Holmes? And this is
my friend, doctor Watson.
Speaker 2: Yea.
Speaker 1: Then he went into I'm paying for these here half
a crown and you can keep them.
Speaker 6: Change blessings on you you well.
Speaker 3: If you insist on paying for drinks, mister Hankin, here's
your very good health.
Speaker 1: Indeed you're both English, yes, sir, so amne. It's certainly
a relief to hear English voice again. If you don't
like the Irish, little sir, i'mbearers personally, I've had a
rather chary It wouldn't if you had to live with
it all the time. Sometimes I think that if I
hear one more Irish tenor singing Molly Malone, or one more.
Speaker 2: Reference to the little people.
Speaker 1: I should be raving to live in Lanson. I have
to I own a half interest in the treatment here.
You see. In any case, my wife's hourish and he
thinks there's no other country in the.
Speaker 2: World socas I'm stuck here.
Speaker 1: See that couple sitting at the table over there.
Speaker 2: You mean the fellow was a very beautiful girl.
Speaker 1: Is man's Michael Corker and my partner.
Speaker 2: The girl's absolutely ravishing.
Speaker 1: He'd like to meet her, like, well, what's in the
combination of my natural curiosity and your taste pro pretty
paste would seem to suit the occasion that probably I
might as well warn you, doctor that the pretty face
belongs to my wife, your wife to me. You better
bring your glasses with you, My my dear, I want
you to meet two English friends of mine, mister Holmes
and Dr Watson.
Speaker 5: Mister Holmes, Doctor Barton, won't you sit down and join it?
Speaker 1: And this is my partner, Michael Corker. How do you
do miss Cochran? How I'm glad to meet you. Please
be seated, gentlemen, how are you visiting her? Yes? This
is akin, but we're returning to eat them in a
few days.
Speaker 5: You've been to Blarney Castle, I hope.
Speaker 1: Oh yes, we would have at noon?
Speaker 5: And did either have you had the courage to kiss
the Blarney Stone?
Speaker 2: Oh no we didn't.
Speaker 4: I'm fred it's an athletic feat that.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of rubbish, that's what it is, Sladow Stone.
Have you the courage to do it? Jeffrey, I want
to make a fool of myself.
Speaker 2: Where's the bomb?
Speaker 1: Man? Deathly? I'll make a way to Jeffrey. But you
haven't the courage to kiss the stone at your bet Michael,
and weigh your a ten pound note on. It takes
a bet, and you, fellows witness this ll kiss the
blony stone at noon tomorrow and you'll be ten parts
of poorer. Michael, and I suggested mister Holmes and doctor
Watson be present as well, late Lass referees.
Speaker 5: Jeffrey, dear, don't get to excited.
Speaker 1: I don't like it when Michael suggests I don't have courage.
You want some more dat, mister Henrison, thank you.
Speaker 4: No, no, no, no no, And you've had enough. You'll
tell me when I've had enough.
Speaker 7: Money In Dublin Spear City, their no not that perfect, and.
Speaker 2: I find.
Speaker 1: Jeffrey quiet.
Speaker 7: You wanted me to sing in this.
Speaker 1: Song, My honor would like you to shut up that
filthy cattle boy. Sean.
Speaker 5: Please go on with your singing.
Speaker 7: In Dublin Spear City.
Speaker 2: You heard me, great.
Speaker 1: Show, Jeffrey.
Speaker 5: I'm leaving here this once. Michael, please to take me home.
Speaker 1: It would be my pleasure money.
Speaker 6: You're an ugly man, mister Hankin knocking down poor Sean
when he was singing just like a bird.
Speaker 2: Devil with him.
Speaker 4: Love you, no irishman will.
Speaker 6: Be after forgiving you for this night's work. No, not
the little people of old Ireland either. You've made more enemies,
mister Hankin than you'll ever see. Would you'll be knowing
there there you can't find.
Speaker 4: Me super Irish superstition.
Speaker 2: Well, bless my soul. That was a charming little party,
I must sir.
Speaker 1: Englishmen like Hankin are a disgrace to the country. Fortunately
they're not representative.
Speaker 3: Yes, I must say, curse put on me like that
barmaid laid on him.
Speaker 1: Watson. Yeah, did you see the glances which mister Hankins's
partner and his wife exchanged as the brawl started. There
was more menace to him in those glances than in
all the threats of all the little people in Ireland.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought that there was something between them. I
say home, that better.
Speaker 3: About Hankin kissing the Blarneystone at noon tomorrow?
Speaker 1: Do you nothing? But there are forces at work here
that I don't like. I think Watson, that you and
I will be at the Blandystone at noon tomorrow. It's
possible that the bet made tonight is all part of
a depth plan, and I have a feeling that the
bet is still on Cui Winny up here today, or
fellow at the top of the tier, isn't it?
Speaker 2: Yes, it's just past noon. I wonder if that man
Hankin is going.
Speaker 4: To keep the terms of his death.
Speaker 1: We will soon learn in the meanwhile, Are you sure
that you wouldn't like to change your mind and kiss
the blandets down herself?
Speaker 2: I'm quite sure they got here.
Speaker 1: They come now, Yes, and kin as his partner, mister Copperhan.
The bet is on Watson. Good day you gentlemen. Oh huh,
it's my friends from last night.
Speaker 2: Well, I see you're going through the betsn.
Speaker 1: Oh, yes, Jeffy said his mine and the's ten pounds
of mine. Your wife didn't become here, mister Hankin, No
she didn't. I'm afraid I'm rather in disgraceful. My behavior
last night boy made me go around and see that
way a fellow that I had, I offered him money,
but he wouldn't take it. Did you offer him an apology?
Apologize to a waited I should say?
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 1: Well, come on, let's get this strip it fast over
with eh. Are you sure?
Speaker 2: Oh? Your nerves can stand it?
Speaker 1: Jeffrey. It's a drop of one hundred feet or more. Below.
You don't worry about me, Michael. Just gol on my ankles, tightling,
then like go, I'll climb out of the power.
Speaker 2: Bet. There we are.
Speaker 1: Now, hold on to my feet, Michael, lower me gently.
I'm holding you.
Speaker 2: Jeffrey right, you are, Jeffrey good.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't do that for one hundred pounds, sliding head
burst on a vertical wall.
Speaker 4: Oh his boots, they're slipping from the fingers.
Speaker 2: I can't hold it out him. Hold on to me,
hold on to him.
Speaker 4: Oh he's gone.
Speaker 2: I just couldn't hold him away.
Speaker 4: Heavens, no man could survive that drop.
Speaker 1: It's a cochormant. You deliberately let your partner slip to
his death. This is murder, which I don't understand. I'm
a strong man. But he just vanished out her hands
leg like a grease peak. Let me see your hands,
mister Cochorman's dreadful, dreadful. Now's grease on your hands. Greee
and with a faint trace of bootplacking.
Speaker 2: Good lord home.
Speaker 1: That means Watson. But someone knowing that Hankin was going
to kiss the bonistone smear his boots with grease so
that he would slip out of the grasp of whoever
was holding him. There's clever a method of indirect long
distance murderers ever I've encountered.
Speaker 2: You hear the.
Speaker 1: Remainder of Doc Watson's story in just a second. So
I'm going to remind you that Patrick California's sherry is
not only wonderful before dinner, but it's good almost any time.
If you had to choose just one wine for almost
any occasion, that wine would be Petrie sherry. Petrie sherry
is a perfect wine to serve in the afternoon or
in the evening. It's good before dinner, yes, but it's
swell after dinner too. In fact, with a bottle of
Petrie sherry on your shelf, you got practically a small
sized wine side. So get a bottle of Petrie sherry soon.
And remember you can't miss with any wine that has
the letters P E, T R I on the label,
because all Petrie wine is good wine. But doctor Watson,
this is quite a story you're telling us tonight. What
happened next? I suppose you went down into the castle
grounds and looked for the dead man's bottle.
Speaker 3: We tried to mister Boutell, but the athologies were curiously
and cooperative. It refused to let a search, insisting of
the police be called first.
Speaker 2: And so mister Botel.
Speaker 3: Half an hour after the tragedy, Holmes and I found
ourselves standing in the Talley.
Speaker 4: Police station as we told the story for the local sergeant.
Speaker 1: Sure the stands be prayers, mister Holmes, this is a
terrible story you've told me. Tomorrow I'll be after resting
Sean O'Flaherty. He's a waiter at the end, the one
who sings that he is, that he is any things
like a breath of spring. I'm sorry to see him hang.
Good to you. No proof that he was possible for
the murder, proof, you say, sir, But I can't arrest
a big man of factory man like mister Copper, can I?
Speaker 4: Or a fine lady like missus Hank.
Speaker 1: But you can't arrest a man without any evidence of guilt.
I can't, can't. I then suppose I tell you that
Shan o. Faddy cleans the boats at the hotel where
mister Hank can be staying.
Speaker 3: They then he had the perfect opportunity for the greasing
of Hankins boots this morning.
Speaker 2: And we know he had a motive for harming him.
Speaker 1: Your r sir, and for what I have hoarded the
dead man's behavior. Last night half a dozen people could
have heard him make the bet that he'd kissed the
blinding stone. Today, shan oh, faddy's a man, I'd have
to rest far tomorrow. What good heavens man? Aren't you
going to do something today? A murders at large?
Speaker 4: Today? Bless a Saint Patrick's Day?
Speaker 1: Should let the poor fellow have the day? He said, Oh,
he won't run away.
Speaker 2: My your son?
Speaker 1: Will you come back with me to the castle, and
said for the body they refuse to let me do
the lane and Saint Patrick's Day that I will not.
Speaker 4: We would need a crew of helpers.
Speaker 1: Where will I be after getting them on? They said,
Patrick's Day?
Speaker 4: No, No, we'll do that tomorrow too.
Speaker 1: Not today's a day for celebrating. Your methods are stound, missage,
Do they know? Sir? Now threaten about me? Just injoire
yourself today tomorrow we'll see what can be done about it. Well,
good day to you, gentlemen.
Speaker 2: I never scene. Since you're having a lucky policeman in
the light.
Speaker 1: Infuriating you only have a lot to examine Hankins, you
can get to the bottom of this.
Speaker 2: Well, what are you going to do now? Please?
Speaker 1: Won't help us, then we mistake the lawn of our
own hands. I think we'll stand off by going to
be hotel and seeing what we can find out from
Sean of party.
Speaker 7: As I was going to bury you already, I will
remember for the view the legs and Lessons one and
fifty of November with a marine day and a marine
you do the Dado yourna would be after speaking to
me Sean O clarity?
Speaker 1: Perhaps yes, Sean, did you know that mister hank And,
the man who's truck you last night was dead dead? Well,
if you were a man deserved to be beneath the side.
Speaker 7: Was Jeffrey Hankin himself.
Speaker 1: A mean, ugly man? This md to be praised that
he's gone. How did he die?
Speaker 2: Sir?
Speaker 4: He was murder.
Speaker 1: Murdered, but be dead. I'm not surprised to hear it
who murdered him, sir? At the mumbured The police seem
to think that you are the culprit meself, Well, how
would I be after murdering the man? Sir? And I
don't even know how he died?
Speaker 2: He died when he fell.
Speaker 3: From the top of Planet Castle as he was trying
to kiss the stone.
Speaker 1: He fell because mister cockran and his partner couldn't hold
on to his feet. His boots have been greased, and we.
Speaker 2: Know that you have been cleaning his boots, Sean.
Speaker 1: That I have, Sir, I cleaned him this very mining,
but I put no grease on him. If that's which
you'd be after suggestion, I'm suggesting nothing. I am trying
to establish a few facts. Do you know Kathleen the barmad.
Speaker 7: Oh In Why shouldn't I know her, sir, to be
me wife before the winter sits him?
Speaker 1: She pronounced a curse on the dead man last night,
just after he had knocked you down. It's possible that
she let if.
Speaker 6: You Shan mc darling. What are the fine gentlemen.
Speaker 1: Doing, Katleen?
Speaker 7: They've come to ask me questions about the death of
mister Hankin. He fell off Blannet Castle today and got
himself murdered.
Speaker 1: They say, the saints be praised, But what is there
to do with you, my darling?
Speaker 7: But the gentleman tell me that the village police think
that I might have greased his boots, so he slipped
his death.
Speaker 6: The village police is as stupid is my father's big
sou If mister Hankin fell to his death today because
his boots were greased, I can tell you who did it?
Speaker 1: Who the little people?
Speaker 6: Are you warning mister Hankin last night that the little
people would be after him?
Speaker 1: He insulted the iro.
Speaker 3: Oh, come, come, come, mader. You don't share the expects
to believe in the little people?
Speaker 6: And why not, your honor, we have them here. There's
no say the fairy is well he did, but I
know different. I've seen them. When I was a slip
of a girl. Close to where I lived, there was
a rat that's a fort, you know, and the wrath
was the fairies for it. We never dare touch it
with a spade, or or put down a tree grow
in honor to carry away a stone. We put our
ear to the ground at knighton and we could hear
the fairy music rising up from under the ground.
Speaker 1: Ah.
Speaker 6: They're gentle people most of the time, but they greased
the boots of a man like mister Hankin. If they
didn't like them, that they would, your.
Speaker 4: Honor, Holmes.
Speaker 1: I'm certain that we're wasting your time here, I guess,
said Watson got the whole thing turned on the greazing
of those boots. If only I could have the boots
in my hands, if only I could make laboratory tests.
But until that, don't of the police. But of course
I haven't, Watson, you have on her, he answered, I
hope get hold of missus Hankin and mister Cochran, have
them meet me in the Blandest Tone Tower in half
an hour. You where you going to the police station
to try and convince the sergeant that, even in Saint
Patrick's dates, his duty to help me trap a murderer.
You know, mister Holmes, you're an obstinate man. It's pleas
to Saint Patrick's day, and yet you insist that we
meet here on the top of Blardie Castle. What do
you think you can prove woo murder Jeffrey Hankin best?
But why to Marley and I have to.
Speaker 5: Be here, yes, mister Holmes, and poor Jeffrey's body is
still lying somewhere, belows.
Speaker 1: Missus hank Here, mister Cochran, I asked doctor Watson to
bring you here for a good reason. I assure you. Ready, Watson,
quite ready, home good soganty. Yes, sir, you asked if
why I've assembled the three of you here. I'm going
to reconstruct the crime. I shall play the part of
the victim. My friend doctor Watson will represent you, mister Cochran.
Now I straddled a part of it. So Watson, hold
on of my female.
Speaker 2: I've got him home.
Speaker 1: Lay him around the face of the wall. Bete you up,
homes Hon'll take to the wall.
Speaker 2: Can't push yourself back.
Speaker 4: The murders tried to get you.
Speaker 2: You're coming in Greece, have I pas? I've come home?
Oh that's a.
Speaker 1: Near thing, devilish plot, sergeanten that heavily carried out, and
my boot were ungreased. I entered the castle and yet
someone has been able to apply Greece to them, not
my knowledge, within the last few minutes. Sure, how is
that possible, Sir? I don't know, Sergeant, I must confessed.
Speaker 4: Holmes.
Speaker 3: You stumble as you came up the Dartin's staircase.
Speaker 2: Do you remember that?
Speaker 1: As to Wilshab, I've forgotten, and you, missus Hankin and you,
mister Cochran, were kind of not to assist me to
my feet. An excellent opportunity to apply the grease. Now
we know that one of you two is the murder.
I must have a job of Greece somewhere and aston,
will you search the lady while I searched, mister cochran.
Speaker 2: But this is ridicious, of course it is.
Speaker 5: How could we be guilty?
Speaker 4: Well, if your teams you've got no objection to being searched.
Speaker 1: On my word, here are your person, missus Hackness, a
job of Greece. Now what have you to say to yourself?
Can't you say, Sergeant, except that she engineered her husband's
murder and try to engineer mine.
Speaker 5: Oh no, no, are you nothing about Jeffrey's murder? Oh,
Michael Darling, I swear to you.
Speaker 1: Won't worry, my darling, I'll not not the butter. I'm
telling you you're wrong, mister Holmes.
Speaker 2: I I wish the murderer.
Speaker 5: Oh no, Michael, you mustn't sacrifice.
Speaker 2: Yourself for ning.
Speaker 1: This little play acting is done far enough, mister Cochran.
You have just offered us and what you think we
will accept as a false confession. But I've established the
one thing I wish to know. That you love your
late partner's wife, and she you and proud to admit that,
mister Holmes, and now that she's a widow, I can
safely opened. But what how are you implying that you
murdered your partner but put the grease on your own boot, Sir?
I just found a jar with missus Hank. That's my
discargeon was all part of my little plan. As to
the grease on my boots, I can diss I placed
it there myself, just as I planted the jar of
grease in your bag. Miss Afoard accomplished two ends. It
forced you, mister Cochran, into a portrayal of your love.
But what was more important to from what Dr Watson's
natural reactions were that a man holding the greased boots
could not fail to realize that fact at once, you
brazenly committed murder. Pa Paulaverty eyes mister Cochran, hoping to
appear as a person victim of another's plot. If theory
is an ingenious one, siphone, But how can you prove it?
I can clean that my hands are unusually insensitive, not
the delicate fingers of a doctor like your friend. Yes
he's right, sir. How can you prove it when with
your kind cooperation, Sergeant. We find the body of mister
Hankin and examine it. I shall study his boots. If
the grease was applied at the hotel, as it would
have been if Sauma plowed had done it, the boots
will reveal dust from the walk here. If there is
no dust, the grease must have been applied as you
grabbed your partner's boots with grease smeared hands. Mister Cochran,
you should know best what my tests ahead. I don't
please don't buy money Medland, great scutty he jumped off
the packet. Now, mister Holmes, you can see that I
was right, sir, wasn't that? What do you mean, sergeant?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: And waiting until tomorrow to get the touch party. Now
we can be after finding both parties at the one time. Doctor,
that was really an unusual story.
Speaker 3: No, I get a bit of a shutow when I
think of that afternoon at the castle.
Speaker 1: You don't blame you, doctor. You know something earlier this
evening I said that if I ever got to Ireland,
i'd certainly want to kiss the Blarney stone. Remember, yeah,
Well I've changed my mind. No more want to hang
by my heels kiss that.
Speaker 2: Stone, and.
Speaker 1: Well, just let's forget, my boy, I don't forget.
Speaker 3: If you kiss that stone, you get the gift developments.
You'd be the most convincing fellow in the world. So
so well, whenever you talked about Petree wine, you'd really
do people a favor because they wouldn't be able to
resist trying it.
Speaker 1: Oh, talking about Petri wine as an important doctor, the
best way to determine just how good Petry wine really
is is to taste it one sip and is all
the proof you need. That's because the Petrie family has
developed the art of wine making to a truly fine point.
They've been making wine for generations, and all the things
the Petrie family knows about turning luscious, sun ripened grapes

the family, if from father to son, from father to son.
That's why whenever you want to swell wine for any occasion,
you can't go wrong with a Petree wine, because Petree
took time to bring you good wine. Well, doctor Watson,
