Then a 17 00:02:03,439 --> 00:02:06,200 happy trumpet yells and makes the music of the nighttime, 18 00:02:06,799 --> 00:02:10,479 heaps into the darkness, drifts and dies. From my window 19 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,439 at headquarters, I watched to watch the man detach himself 20 00:02:13,439 --> 00:02:15,280 from it, Turn and stand for an instant in a 21 00:02:15,319 --> 00:02:17,680 sallow pool of light from a street lamp, and consider it. 22 00:02:18,439 --> 00:02:20,919 Turn again and up the steps, and in a little 23 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,680 while open my door. Because he's been told to see me. 24 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,520 Come in. You know all about me, don't you not 25 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,639 a thing? What do you mean, not a thing?

Tell 28 00:02:37,439 --> 00:02:39,879 you people a bunch of lions. You talk to someone else. 29 00:02:40,039 --> 00:02:41,680 I didn't know a thing about it. My wife she 30 00:02:41,719 --> 00:02:43,800 didn't come home. She hasn't come home. At the clothes 31 00:02:44,199 --> 00:02:47,120 I see you reported the day go yes, Clara went 32 00:02:47,159 --> 00:02:49,919 out the other evening. I waited for a Billy's been 33 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,680 leading for Billy three and a half going on four. 34 00:02:53,199 --> 00:02:56,479 The second one really our first child didn't even get born. 35 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,080 See why did you come to see me, miss Brian? 36 00:02:59,439 --> 00:03:03,599 The man in the other office told me, please find 37 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,800 Please find Clara, mister Clover. She's got to come home, 38 00:03:07,879 --> 00:03:11,719 mister Clover. Because and then in the other office said 39 00:03:11,759 --> 00:03:14,039 to show you the letter here open to the reader. 40 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,080 As you see. The man who wrote the letter says 41 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,240 he knows where my wife is. He says, his name 42 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,319 is short. He done, and he says, come to the 43 00:03:21,319 --> 00:03:25,280 Apollo Hotel. What does that mean? And bring money. That's strange, 44 00:03:25,759 --> 00:03:28,000 says come to the Apollo Hotel, but it's written on 45 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,280 mission house stationer and drink money. That's why I came 46 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,560 to the police again. Although I am worried about my wife, 47 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:39,800 I have my head about me. You police, you'll find 48 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,039 the Clara and you'll come home to us. Then you 49 00:03:42,159 --> 00:03:51,560 fellows are good find it. Suddenly the spill of words 50 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,520 stopped flowing from him, became a moan, became the flipper 51 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,039 of the helpless, its component parts defy. It's a shame. 52 00:03:58,919 --> 00:04:01,319 This was the universal currency of men who must bake 53 00:04:01,599 --> 00:04:04,719 to appease, hundred to barker dignity. To blot out this 54 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,719 sudden emptiness. I told him, I check on it, Try 55 00:04:07,719 --> 00:04:09,840 to find his wife for him, talk to the man 56 00:04:09,879 --> 00:04:12,960 who had written the letter. He accepted the arms I 57 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:20,839 had given him right away. The Apollo Hotel stands on 58 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,120 the corner of the bowery and sells men's sleep at 59 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,879 fifty cents a night.

In the back of it, 63 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,279 the man with the green eye shade, the broken, restless fingers, 64 00:04:37,319 --> 00:04:39,959 the vendor of sleep, go away, will full of every 65 00:04:39,959 --> 00:04:42,160 but in the house.

But Clara always 370 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:52,799 went to her husband and child. 371 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,400 Speaker 2: She was in here the night before last, wasn't she? 372 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:56,079 Speaker 10: Yeah? 373 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:56,519 Speaker 4: She was. 374 00:21:56,759 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 2: How long did she stay? 375 00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,799 Speaker 8: Two minutes? Long enough for me to tell her we 376 00:21:59,799 --> 00:22:02,240 could take her. Remember she wanted to wash and said, do. 377 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:03,599 Speaker 2: You remember what time it was? 378 00:22:04,599 --> 00:22:07,079 Speaker 8: I came back from dinner about five point thirty A 379 00:22:07,079 --> 00:22:09,000 little after that, abut a quarter six? 380 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,640 Speaker 2: One more thing? Was she carrying anything? 381 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:12,319 Speaker 4: Then? 382 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,920 Speaker 8: She had a book with her? That's right, she did. 383 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:16,799 She told me it was a terrible book, waste time, 384 00:22:16,839 --> 00:22:17,640 and she was returning it. 385 00:22:17,759 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 2: Did you have a toy with her? Mechanical bear? 386 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:21,359 Speaker 8: I didn't notice. 387 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:22,039 Speaker 10: Maybe she did? 388 00:22:22,079 --> 00:22:24,839 Speaker 8: You want anything else? Now in your pardon me, it's 389 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,720 time to take missus westfall out of the oil. 390 00:22:37,559 --> 00:22:38,319 Speaker 5: I'm certain of it. 391 00:22:38,799 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 2: Missus Brian came for her appointment at six. She was 392 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,720 only carrying a book, nothing else. Why did Missus Bryan 393 00:22:44,839 --> 00:22:47,720 have to come to you a chiropractor? Missus Brian had 394 00:22:47,759 --> 00:22:49,759 trouble with her back. She didn't coming to me for 395 00:22:49,839 --> 00:22:52,559 some time. Now, aches in her back came. I did 396 00:22:52,599 --> 00:22:59,200 what I could. I gave her temporary relief. But do 397 00:22:59,279 --> 00:23:02,400 you find a saying I cured the symptoms but not 398 00:23:02,519 --> 00:23:04,920 the source of her trouble. And that doesn't tell me 399 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,319 a whole lot. Well, you understand, I'm not a medical doctor, 400 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:12,000 I'm a chiropractor. But I'm going to tell you his 401 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:17,160 only conjecture. All right, The trouble was here in her head, 402 00:23:17,759 --> 00:23:20,319 not in her back, meaning oh, it's a very glib 403 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:25,319 word where it'sychosomatic. It's simple. Really, she was tired of routine. 404 00:23:25,759 --> 00:23:28,039 She'd reached the point in life when she recognized the 405 00:23:28,079 --> 00:23:30,960 fact that what she had was all that was going 406 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:34,799 to be as far as her life was concerned. She 407 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:40,000 was restless in her mind. Then, Clara didn't have the 408 00:23:40,079 --> 00:23:45,240 heart to do anything like that. Clara didn't she permitted 409 00:23:45,279 --> 00:23:49,559 me that to call her by her first name. I 410 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,000 confess it to you. She knew I was attracted to her. 411 00:23:54,079 --> 00:23:58,799 Once when she left here, she touched my cheek and smiled. 412 00:24:00,039 --> 00:24:01,839 She would have let me. I would have tried to 413 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:07,119 make her happy. Believe me, mister Clover. She wouldn't let me. 414 00:24:12,079 --> 00:24:15,640 And that ended that. These were the four places Missus 415 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,599 Brian had visited before she died. When she had gone 416 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,039 to the beauty shop, she had a book she left 417 00:24:21,039 --> 00:24:23,000 there with it had gotten rid of it at the 418 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,519 next stop, the lending library, then the six o'clock appointment 419 00:24:26,559 --> 00:24:30,079 with the chiropractor. The chiropractor was certain she didn't have 420 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,480 the mechanical toy with her, and the man at the 421 00:24:32,519 --> 00:24:35,519 tenth fence store was certainly sold her one. So the 422 00:24:35,559 --> 00:24:37,720 store had in the last stop on the list. Go 423 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:38,359 back there. 424 00:24:42,559 --> 00:24:44,400 Speaker 3: Hello, there, I see you came back. 425 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:48,319 Speaker 2: That's right. How are you coming with what? Well? You 426 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,279 know with the murder case? Oh that's so good, mister Livy. 427 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:52,440 I'm reading the papers. 428 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,559 Speaker 3: I see where you boys found a bomb in the bower. 429 00:24:54,559 --> 00:24:57,160 He stabbed to death. This happened while you were looking 430 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:58,480 for Missus Brian, didn't it. 431 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:04,880 Speaker 2: You sound tired? Mind?

Oh have you have you. 434 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:15,640 Speaker 3: Made any progress on the case? 435 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,759 Speaker 2: Some nice story? 436 00:25:19,319 --> 00:25:20,039 Speaker 3: Take it with you. 437 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,839 Speaker 2: Maybe you've got a nephew. No, no, no, no, goot. 438 00:25:23,519 --> 00:25:25,559 Speaker 3: Well what do you figure the connection is between that 439 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:26,920 bomb and Missus Brian? 440 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:28,880 Speaker 2: Pretty obvious? 441 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,880 Speaker 3: Obvious to you boys, not to a ten ten store 442 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,519 man like Oh. 443 00:25:34,319 --> 00:25:38,759 Speaker 2: Like this, our technical boys tell me Missus Brian wasn't 444 00:25:38,759 --> 00:25:41,119 strangled in the tenement. It's some other place. She was 445 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:42,680 killed and then brought the tenement. 446 00:25:43,079 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 3: Do you figure the bomb killed her? 447 00:25:44,559 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 7: Huh? 448 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 14: I read really had twenty. 449 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 3: Dollars in his pocket. 450 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 2: Motive was robbery. No, that's not what happened. What happened is. 451 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:56,680 Speaker 3: I see her staring at my four ninety eight item. 452 00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,839 Those mechanical beds, you like them. 453 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,799 Speaker 2: What happened is this her bum. Shorty was about to 454 00:26:03,799 --> 00:26:06,920 bet down for the night in the condemned tenement. He 455 00:26:07,039 --> 00:26:10,680 found Missus Brian's body, opened her pocketbook, song she was, 456 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:14,319 took her money and ran You boys, killer had just 457 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,519 put Missus Brian in the tenement. We watched Shorty do 458 00:26:17,599 --> 00:26:21,279 all that followed. Shorty the rest of his life saw 459 00:26:21,319 --> 00:26:23,000 I'm write a letter at the mission. 460 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 3: A letter I didn't read anything about that. 461 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,880 Speaker 2: Killer must have seen that the letter was addressed to 462 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:28,440 her husband. 463 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 3: Well, how did you figure that without seeing what happened 464 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:33,039 and all? 465 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 2: That's the only way it makes sense. Gee, I don't know. 466 00:26:37,079 --> 00:26:39,839 Speaker 3: I think him my theory. I too think the bun children, 467 00:26:40,519 --> 00:26:40,960 You're wrong. 468 00:26:42,079 --> 00:26:45,279 Speaker 2: Shorty didn't kill her. The killer followed Shorty to the 469 00:26:45,319 --> 00:26:47,880 Apollo Hotel and killed him because he thought that the 470 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:51,079 reason Shorty had written mister Brian to tell him he 471 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:56,000 knew who had murdered his wife, missus Brian was an 472 00:26:56,039 --> 00:27:03,160 attractive form.

She said, 492 00:28:14,079 --> 00:28:18,440 all right. She went back and scrouched down in my chair. 493 00:28:20,519 --> 00:28:24,759 I looked at her. I brush her hair back from 494 00:28:24,799 --> 00:28:26,359 her cheek. 495 00:28:27,319 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 2: She's tired.

Well a really good episode, some solid detective 510 00:31:10,279 --> 00:31:15,200 work by Danny and piecing together what happened, and probably 511 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:20,799 with less interference from other sources than was usual. It's 512 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,480 also worth noting that her Butterfield was in this He 513 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:31,279 actually had doubles and neither role was the murderer herb Butterfield. 514 00:31:31,319 --> 00:31:35,359 As the murderer streak is over, you definitely do feel 515 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:38,200 for the murdered woman in this case. Now of course, 516 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:44,759 you have cases where sometimes the murderer seems to have 517 00:31:45,119 --> 00:31:49,559 a sympathetic motive, but in this case, pretty much the 518 00:31:49,599 --> 00:31:52,720 only reason this lady got killed is that she was 519 00:31:52,759 --> 00:31:55,559 a nice woman who happened to be good looking, and 520 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,160 some guy wanted to make something of it and killed 521 00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:02,000 her in a rage. Now, on a more technical note, 522 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:07,359 the information at the end identifying the Far East Network, 523 00:32:09,079 --> 00:32:13,759 which was originally established for American servicemen stationed in the Pacific, 524 00:32:13,839 --> 00:32:18,960 particularly in Japan, Okinawa, and Guam, and continue to operate 525 00:32:19,039 --> 00:32:24,359 till nineteen ninety one. Based on the recording similar ones 526 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:28,200 I've heard, I think this was a disc of a 527 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:33,839 rebroadcast from the seventies. All right, listener, comments and feedback 528 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:38,720 now and we start on Spotify. We're Mechanics sixty six rights. 529 00:32:38,799 --> 00:32:42,960 Regarding the Johnny Hill murder case. Despite Danny's threat, the 530 00:32:43,039 --> 00:32:47,000 police can't hold someone for a week or a month 531 00:32:47,079 --> 00:32:50,319 on suspicion. They need to be brought before a judge 532 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:54,079 and probable cost shown within a set time, usually forty 533 00:32:54,119 --> 00:32:59,240 eight hours. And this is correct, and you will see 534 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:05,759 other more realistic programs incorporate that idea that they've got 535 00:33:05,799 --> 00:33:09,400 a certain amount of time before the person is going 536 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,759 to be released on a wret. Now, in this case, 537 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,839 the person who's Danny's threatening may not know this, and 538 00:33:17,079 --> 00:33:20,319 it's also possible the writers didn't know it either. But 539 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,920 I appreciate the comment. And then a comment on YouTube 540 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:29,599 regarding the Laura Burton murder case, just a simple great listening, 541 00:33:29,799 --> 00:33:36,000 thank you.

I'm all busy, buddy. I wouldn't 552 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:10,440 have mentioned it at all if this hadn't happened. And 553 00:34:10,559 --> 00:34:12,559 you say Kane had been seeing Missus Gormant for the 554 00:34:12,639 --> 00:34:14,800 last six months? Is that right, mister pier In about 555 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,800 six months? That's how long I've seen it go on. Change, 556 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:19,559 don't be such a hog. Let Fred have some of 557 00:34:19,599 --> 00:34:22,280 the milk too, beady, little the devils. Do you know 558 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,239 of anybody else in the neighborhood who's been aware of this, 559 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,039 mister Pearson, I mean Missus Gorman and miss Ralph Keane. Well, 560 00:34:27,079 --> 00:34:29,159 I know for sure that Telma White next door knows 561 00:34:29,159 --> 00:34:31,599 about it. She's mentioned it to me. Kane used to 562 00:34:31,599 --> 00:34:34,360 park with Missus Gorman near that vacant lot by Thoma's house. 563 00:34:34,519 --> 00:34:36,480 Those were the knives that mister Gorman was working late. 564 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:38,840 Would you know if mister German was aware of this 565 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:40,960 that his wife was running around with another man. I'm 566 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,239 pretty sure he did, Sergeant, that's a strange part about him. 567 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:46,159 How do you know George, the man who delivers the groceries. 568 00:34:46,199 --> 00:34:50,239 He just happened to mention it to me once. All right, James, right, 569 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,840 it's all gone. I'll run off and play. Yes, George 570 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:55,760 the grocer man, he made a delivery to the Gormans 571 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,480 once and heard them rowing about it. George said, mister 572 00:34:58,519 --> 00:35:01,440 Gorman was very mad, talked to all that sort of thing. Well, 573 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,000 how about the Garman's little girl, Mister Pearson, little Nancy, 574 00:35:04,119 --> 00:35:06,960 tragic surgeon. Such a sweet little thing. Missus Garman kept 575 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,599 her under an iron ham. Imagine the little girl is 576 00:35:09,639 --> 00:35:11,800 only two years old. Missus Garman was after her with 577 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,199 a stick all the time. She's not much of a mother, 578 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:15,639 not the way I look at it, anyway. 579 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,800 Speaker 1: Hope you'll be with us then in the meantime, send 580 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,519 your comments to Box thirteen at Great Detectives dot net. 581 00:35:22,519 --> 00:35:28,000 Follow us on Twitter Radio Detectives.
