Speaker 2: Of Chinatown was a curio shop owned by hey Boy's uncle.
He was visibly upset, and I had no further word
his nephew. I promised him that I would do everything
I could to find him. There was one man in
Chinatown who might have the answer. Chung Wu, or want
of a better description, he was called the Mayor of Chinatown,
but he was much more than that. Head of the
House of Chung in America, related through marriage to the
Wang Chang and Pong families, president of the Alang Kang,
and just to keep his hand in he ran the
biggest pantan parlor east of Cantan.
Speaker 1: He was very important and very difficult to see. No
no hornible.
Speaker 3: Chong Wu is not here.
Speaker 1: He is never out. He sees no one. You'll see me.
Keep no hand away from that panel, and.
Speaker 2: You keep your hand away from that knife.
Speaker 1: How did you know? I've been here before?
Speaker 2: You must be new, will put me to death by
a thousand torture?
Speaker 1: Who visits this humble establishment desire Chung paladin? A paladin,
my friend, Jo, that's.
Speaker 2: A mighty devoted watchdog there.
Speaker 1: Young.
Speaker 7: You must forgive him, my friend, he is new to him.
All Americans look alike.
Speaker 1: They do well. They'll be hard on him. You're just
doing his job. Yes, well, come in, paladin, come in?
Thank you? Where my friend?
Speaker 7: It is too long a time since you have grace
these on wealthy walls.
Speaker 1: With your peasants, much too long?
Speaker 2: Maybe the oversight fine forgiveness in your honorable heart.
Speaker 7: My heart is too full of pleasure at seeing you
once more to harbor an unkind thought. It quickens to
know the reason for your visits. I seek word the
boy who serves me in the hotel. Ah, Yes, Kim Chang,
the one you call hey.
Speaker 1: Boy, the very one. Why do you seek word of
him here? He disappeared? If here is in trouble.
Speaker 7: If he were in trouble, I would have heard.
Speaker 2: I thought perhaps he might be in your establishment playing phantom.
Speaker 1: Not that boy.
Speaker 7: Sometimes I think he is not a true Chinese. He
cares nothing for gambling. He thinks only of saving his
money so that he can get married to this miss
Wang at your hotel.
Speaker 2: But that's why I disappeared after she asked him when
he intended to marry her foolish girl.
Speaker 7: She has not yet learned how to hide the stings
when she manipulates her mannequin.
Speaker 2: Ah, Well, if you were a Chinese boy and had
a fight with your girl, where would you go?
Speaker 7: If he were angry enough, our incape would not have.
Speaker 1: Been strong enough for him, You meaning, when I'm got drunk.
Speaker 5: He might have.
Speaker 1: But if he did, he did not do it here. Well,
then if I were.
Speaker 7: An angry Chinese boy who did not care for gambling
and wanted to get really drunk, I might end up
in the Barbary Coast.
Speaker 2: The Barbary Coast, that mean and rady conglomeration of sheds
and shanties, purveying entertainment and refreshment to sailors whose appetites
are stranger than their tastes. Now, you just didn't go
to the Barbary Coast. You made arrangements. I made mine

sit down, still as handsome as ever here.
Speaker 1: The vigilantes have been giving you a bad time.
Speaker 9: Vigilantes, why can't they leave an old woman alone?
Speaker 2: Because if they did, that old woman would be running
the city in two weeks.
Speaker 9: Sure, I asked, is to earn a living?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I weep for you, Gerty.
Speaker 9: That what you came here for? To cry over me?
Speaker 1: No, I'm looking for a Chinese boy.

But what are you doing?
Speaker 1: What's this where'd you get this black so cool?
Speaker 5: He?
Speaker 1: Huh?
Speaker 5: What cool?
Speaker 2: He had stuff behind the sofa pillar like someone was
trying to hide it.
Speaker 9: Now, Paladin, why did anyone want to hide.
Speaker 2: A thing like that? I don't even know why I
respected a lady like you would have a thing like
this in her parlor unless it was dropped by his
owner while he was being lowered unconscious through that trap
door over there to a boat Bowle.
Speaker 9: I don't know what you're talking about.

Bishop the same Clydeside clipper bound east for Liverpool around
the horn?
Speaker 1: Did you sell? Hey boy? Did the Arabella Bishop?
Speaker 9: You're too late, Paladin?
Speaker 1: What do you mean?
Speaker 9: Look out the window on the Arabella Bishop's weighed anchor, Paladin,
She's already sailed.
Speaker 1: The boy with.
Speaker 2: Shanghaied aboard the Arabella Bishop when she was too far
out in the bay for anything about it. But if
I couldn't intercept her by water, I could try to
cut her off by lamb.
Speaker 1: Oh yes, mister Peladin, I can beat it to the Presido.
Speaker 2: All right, Harry, let's go ship out.
Speaker 5: What are you figuring on.
Speaker 1: Doing, mister Pelady?
Speaker 2: Get that boy off the Arabella Bishop now at tubs
of sail. There's a way you know his master of
the Arabella, Oh, Captain Ford, and I mean a cutthroat.
Speaker 1: I ain't been born to sail the seas. Oh yeah,
I've heard of him. He ain't going to give up,
no cruel and to you without a part, I think
he will gladly. Yeah, Kip Pie and Nelly.
Speaker 2: Sorry, I can't plush Ald Nelly any poster, mister Bella.
Speaker 1: And I'm all right.
Speaker 2: Once we get over Russian Hill, we'll coast all the
way out to the presidioom and then what I have
friends in the army, Harry, Yes, but for what you're
right in today, you all have friends in the nineties.
Look back there, Gus, we see the Arabella Bishop just
beyond here with Buena. He's an irons no wind. Now
look out toward the Golden Gate. A'm coming in exactly
by the time the Arabella Bishop gets out to the
gate on the tide, we'll be waiting for her.
Speaker 1: In the fog, we'll be waiting. Oh, Harry, you're not
going to abandon me, are you?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 5: Only how are we going to get out there?
Speaker 2: Walk?
Speaker 1: One thing at a time, my good Harry.
Speaker 2: And now that we're over the hump of Russian Hill,
let's make all speed of the army.
Speaker 1: Suttler on a prosidio. The suttler on an army course
a good man to know.
Speaker 2: Not only does he control the supplies, but he also
has more restricted information than the commanding officer. And John
Harrington Suttler at the presidio was the best west.
Speaker 1: Of the rockies. After Hello, John, how they're treating you?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 5: Fine, fine?
Speaker 1: What brings you out here on this wet, misty afternoon?
I thought we might go fishing, my friend and I
fishing in this one. You won't be able to see
your hand in front of your face mid nightfall.
Speaker 2: All the better for the kind of fish we're after, John.
When I was stationed out here, there was always a
small sailboat or two more than a little cove to.

there now, catboat that's too small. A cutter, yeah, that's
more business like.

in this weather.

I think so good.
Speaker 2: I'd like to borrow it, and a burgee for the
main master to look official. All this for a fishing drip,
that's right, what are you expecting to catch? Well?
Speaker 1: Why don't you close up the store and come along
and see? I think I will. This looks like something
the man shouldn't miss.
Speaker 5: Martha, what do you hear from your sister?
Speaker 1: She's coming for a visit?
Speaker 6: And I dreaded with a nagging back ache and muscular
eggs and pains I've had lately. I feel worn out.

Speaker 1: To fool anyone in the late afternoon in the heavy fog.
And that's just the way it was.

didn't have too much trouble.

the back like a lonely calf.

that for your sake, captain. This Chinese is supposed to
be suffering from the ubantic plague.

name of her clients until very end she rested again.
The end in this case is when I discovered a
Chinese coolie cap under her solfa pillow. Now, really, Captain,

of this sort, I don't feel it's disloyalty to the
weaker sex to uh stretch the truth. Now, Miss Wong
