He went to South Africa twenty 43 00:02:39,599 --> 00:02:41,800 five years ago, and we've never had a work. From instance, 44 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,840 when father died we were left very poor. But one day, 45 00:02:46,479 --> 00:02:48,800 about four months ago we were told that there was 46 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:52,520 an advertisement in the Times inquiring for our whereabouts where 47 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,199 You can imagine how excited we was. We had it 48 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,439 off to the lawyer whose name was given in the paper. 49 00:02:58,439 --> 00:03:01,840 In his office he introduced the two other gentlemen, and 50 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:06,800 mister Carruthers and a mister Woodley, and then withdrew, leaving 51 00:03:06,879 --> 00:03:10,280 us alone. 52 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,879 Speaker 5: Well, man, I'll explain right away that mister Woodley here 53 00:03:13,879 --> 00:03:19,039 and I a home on a visit from South Africa.

But then it 92 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,959 was much less than i'd be Madge, mister Holmes. The 93 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,879 first floor in my happiness came when mister Woodley arrived 94 00:05:28,879 --> 00:05:29,800 to visit for a week. 95 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 2: What happened? 96 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:37,959 Speaker 4: Oh yes, he made odious love to me. He boasted 97 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,879 it as well and said that if I married him, 98 00:05:39,879 --> 00:05:41,879 I should have the fines starlings in London who It 99 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,680 made no difference when I told him about still Cyril Martin. 100 00:05:46,519 --> 00:05:50,199 He's an electrical engineer in coverage. We hope to be 101 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,319 married at the end of the summer. But this didn't 102 00:05:53,319 --> 00:05:58,079 stop mister Woodley. He's he seized me in his arms 103 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,000 and saw that he wouldn't make me go. 104 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 2: Until I've getting me found. 105 00:06:02,959 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 4: Luckily, mister Carrathers came in and towardly phone me.

What special thing has caused you to 110 00:06:15,439 --> 00:06:16,920 receipt my advice? It is this. 111 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 4: Every Saturday morning I ride my bicycle to Farming Station 112 00:06:21,319 --> 00:06:23,040 to get the twelve twenty two to town. 113 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:23,399 Speaker 1: Yea. 114 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 4: The road from Chiltern Granges is lonely, and it's quite 115 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:29,759 rare to meet so much as a cart along one 116 00:06:29,759 --> 00:06:32,319 street of it, where Charlington Heath lies on one side 117 00:06:32,439 --> 00:06:35,279 and the woods around Charlington Hall on the other. Well, 118 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,920 two weeks ago I was passing this place when I 119 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,480 chanced to look back over my shoulder, and about two 120 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,040 hundred yards behind me, I saw a man or also 121 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,560 on a bicycle, and I looked out. I thought I 122 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,319 reached Farnham, but man was gone, so I thought no 123 00:06:51,399 --> 00:06:55,319 more about it. But imagine my surprise, mister Holmes, when 124 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,680 on my return on Monday, I saw the same man 125 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,600 on the same get your road or even more astonishing, 126 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,959 the incident occurred again exactly before on the following Saturday 127 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:08,759 and Monday. 128 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,399 Speaker 2: Can you describe this man well? 129 00:07:10,439 --> 00:07:12,759 Speaker 4: As far as I could see, he was middle aged, 130 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,879 and he had a short, dark fear that he always 131 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:16,879 kept a distance from me. 132 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 2: Did you miss him to yes? 133 00:07:19,199 --> 00:07:21,319 Speaker 4: Well, he seemed very interested and told me he had 134 00:07:21,439 --> 00:07:23,720 ordered a horse and trap. Willard inciature, I shouldn't have 135 00:07:23,759 --> 00:07:25,879 to pass over that lonely road without a compenion. 136 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 2: Very considerate of him. What next? 137 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 4: The horse and trap would to have come this week, 138 00:07:30,279 --> 00:07:32,279 but for some reason they were not delivered, and again 139 00:07:32,399 --> 00:07:34,759 I had to cycle to the station. But that was 140 00:07:34,759 --> 00:07:37,800 this morning. Yes, was sure enough there was the man 141 00:07:37,839 --> 00:07:41,839 following me for however, today I wasn't alarmed, but still 142 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,879 with curiosity, and I was determined to find out who 143 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:46,639 he was and what he wanted. 144 00:07:46,839 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 2: What else did you do? I laid a. 145 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 4: Trap for him. The road turned sharply just past the 146 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,319 entrance to Charlington Hall. I peddled very quickly around it, 147 00:07:56,439 --> 00:07:59,720 and then I stopped and waited. I expected him to 148 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,000 shoot around and passed me before he could stop, but 149 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:06,240 he never appears. I went back and looked round the corner. 150 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,000 I could see a mile of road, but he wasn't 151 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,399 on it, and there was no side road that he 152 00:08:11,399 --> 00:08:12,439 could have gone. 153 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:17,439 Speaker 2: Down, Miss Smith, have you any admirers other than mister 154 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:18,120 stle Morton. 155 00:08:18,519 --> 00:08:21,399 Speaker 4: It may be my fancy things sometimes that my employer, 156 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:26,000 mister car is quite interested in me. We are thrown 157 00:08:26,079 --> 00:08:29,480 rather together. I play his accompaniments in the evening. Oh 158 00:08:29,519 --> 00:08:32,960 he didn't said anything. He's a perfect gentleman. But the 159 00:08:33,039 --> 00:08:34,159 girl always knows. 160 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 2: I see well, Miss Smith. I'm very busy just now, 161 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,519 but I'll find time to make some inquiries into your own. 162 00:08:40,519 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 4: Oh thank you, mister. 163 00:08:42,759 --> 00:08:45,200 Speaker 2: Take no step without letting me, now, I promise you. 164 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,039 Speaker 4: Mister Holmes, good morning, gentlemen. 165 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 2: Charming little thing home? Emp you sleep? Charming. It's part 166 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,039 of the settled order of nature that such a girl 167 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,879 should have followers. Yeah, but not for choice on bicycles 168 00:09:06,919 --> 00:09:09,120 in the lonely country road. And why should he appear 169 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,639 only that one point? Exactly?

But why did you not simply 392 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,799 tell miss Smith of the danger, because she might have 393 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:25,000 left my house for good. 394 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,839 Speaker 3: Do you call him out love, mister coronve, I should 395 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:29,039 call her selfishness. 396 00:21:29,079 --> 00:21:32,039 Speaker 2: Maybe that two things go together. Anyway, I couldn't better 397 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,519 let her go. And then when the cable came up, 398 00:21:34,599 --> 00:21:38,079 I knew they were boundling conveniently cable cars.
