1
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:28,399
Speaker 1: Come in welcome. I'm e. G. Marshall, Majordomo of this

2
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:33,759
mansion of the mysterious and the macabre. We complain that

3
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,920
so many of the old values are lost on this

4
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:42,079
new generation. And it may be true, but consider some

5
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:46,039
of our old values. We were told to look before

6
00:00:46,079 --> 00:00:50,359
you leap, but we were also told he who hesitates

7
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:55,520
is lost. Obviously, there has always been a problem in communication.

8
00:00:56,439 --> 00:01:02,240
As the philosopher said, we must simplify, simplify, and clarify.

9
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:07,760
Our mystery drama Marry for Murder was written especially for

10
00:01:07,799 --> 00:01:12,200
the Mystery Theater by Sam Dan and stars Mandel Kramer.

11
00:01:13,159 --> 00:01:16,480
It is sponsored in part by Ludin's Medicated cough Drops

12
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:33,359
and Buick Motor Division. I'll be back shortly with that one.

13
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:38,079
All of us are looking for something, and if we

14
00:01:38,159 --> 00:01:42,439
want it badly enough, perhaps we might visit the office

15
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:47,200
of James Kellogg. James is a private detective and he

16
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:52,959
specializes in finding things for people. On a philosophical level,

17
00:01:53,319 --> 00:01:57,439
we might speculate, to whom does Jim go when he

18
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:03,920
has to find something for himself? Well, where does a

19
00:02:03,959 --> 00:02:07,120
doctor go when he needs an operation? What does a

20
00:02:07,159 --> 00:02:10,599
barber do when he wants a haircut. Anyhow, I've been

21
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,960
described as a private detective, and right off, I would

22
00:02:14,039 --> 00:02:17,479
like to straighten everybody out on some basic facts. Fiction

23
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,280
has made a pretty good thing out of my profession.

24
00:02:19,319 --> 00:02:21,840
You know, the luscious blonde with the inviting eyes who

25
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,280
enters the office all a fire with passion. I don't

26
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,840
get cases like that. I don't get sapped on the

27
00:02:26,879 --> 00:02:29,159
skull and wake up in the arms of a gorgeous redhead.

28
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,919
You want to know what I get? I usually get.

29
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,960
What just walked into my office this morning, fat and

30
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,800
fifty issue? And what do you think her problem is?

31
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,719
Speaker 2: I want you to know, mister Kellogg, I investigated you

32
00:02:42,759 --> 00:02:44,319
with her before coming here.

33
00:02:44,439 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: As indeed you should, Missus Melvin.

34
00:02:46,159 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 2: An influential member of the family, the personally discuss the

35
00:02:49,159 --> 00:02:52,159
matter with a district attorney and asked him to recommend

36
00:02:52,199 --> 00:02:55,280
someone your name was suggested. Now that you're here, I

37
00:02:55,319 --> 00:02:59,879
shall explain exactly why we deemed it advisable to engage a.

38
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:03,319
Speaker 1: Private one moment, Missus Melbourne, I am not a private eye.

39
00:03:03,759 --> 00:03:08,879
I am a private detective or a confidential investigator. Please continue.

40
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 3: Here is our problem, our problem.

41
00:03:12,759 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 2: I am acting for the family. My two brothers and myself.

42
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,000
We decided this would be the wisest course of action.

43
00:03:21,159 --> 00:03:23,479
We have a sister who is about to make a

44
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:24,400
dreadful mistake.

45
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:26,159
Speaker 1: Yes, and the.

46
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 2: Husband died a year ago. He was in the hardware

47
00:03:28,719 --> 00:03:30,360
business and left a large amount of money.

48
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 3: Our words, is that your main to this discussion?

49
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,879
Speaker 1: One never knows.

50
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 2: After taxes two million dollars that's large, continue and intends

51
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:43,240
to marry again.

52
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: This is a dreadful mistake. Yes, How old is your sister?

53
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 3: Who's forty old?

54
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:50,719
Speaker 1: Isn't she mean turn ups to know what she's doing?

55
00:03:51,039 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 2: Ah, she's a babe in the woods. She's always led

56
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,599
a sheltered life. She knows nothing of the world.

57
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: And of course the man in question is younger than

58
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,319
your sister. How did you know, well, missus marvel this

59
00:04:03,439 --> 00:04:04,759
is not a unique situation.

60
00:04:05,599 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 3: Well, I the family wants this thing broken up?

61
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: Why? Because you're afraid her money will go to her

62
00:04:12,599 --> 00:04:14,879
new husband not be available to you. Now seeing him

63
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,519
being realistic, how can I or anybody break up this romance?

64
00:04:18,519 --> 00:04:20,360
So she's determined to marry him.

65
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 4: By exposing him for what he is?

66
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:23,759
Speaker 1: What is he?

67
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 3: I think a confidence man?

68
00:04:27,319 --> 00:04:29,639
Speaker 1: Well, if you know this and he's already been exposed.

69
00:04:29,639 --> 00:04:30,439
Speaker 5: But that's just it.

70
00:04:30,959 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 4: We don't know it for a fact.

71
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 1: Then how can you say, because.

72
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:35,920
Speaker 5: It's true, it must be true.

73
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 2: A fellow like him, smooth, sneaky, h and he seems

74
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:41,720
so much younger.

75
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 1: Is your sister attractive?

76
00:04:44,079 --> 00:04:47,079
Speaker 3: It's not the point. Walter Jones is too clear.

77
00:04:47,079 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: That's his name, Walter Jones. Yes, what does he do? Oh?

78
00:04:50,399 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 2: He says she's come to town to open the sales office.

79
00:04:52,759 --> 00:04:54,519
Speaker 1: What kind of sales I don't know.

80
00:04:55,319 --> 00:04:58,519
Speaker 2: He's obviously a swin, learned a sharper, and if so,

81
00:04:58,639 --> 00:05:00,480
he must have been in trouble with the at one

82
00:05:00,519 --> 00:05:01,319
time or another.

83
00:05:01,959 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 1: Have you discussed this with your sister.

84
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,959
Speaker 2: Oh, she's so thoroughly infatuated she won't listen to a

85
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:11,240
single word against him. But if you could come up

86
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,680
with solid evidence of a criminal record, I am convinced

87
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:15,199
we could.

88
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:16,079
Speaker 3: Knit this thing in the bud.

89
00:05:16,519 --> 00:05:18,759
Speaker 1: Well suppose he has no criminal.

90
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 2: Record, impossible, one look at his face.

91
00:05:21,519 --> 00:05:23,639
Speaker 1: He couldn't take a great deal of my time and

92
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:24,920
your money to find out.

93
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 2: I consider that money well spent. It's an investment in

94
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:30,720
my dear sister's happiness.

95
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 1: On the other hand, even if this evidence does exist.

96
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:34,959
It may not do you any good. But do you

97
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,040
mean we'll suppose your sisters are much in love with

98
00:05:37,079 --> 00:05:39,839
this man that she decides to marry him. Anyhow, you

99
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:44,560
just buy that evidence? Well, I'll need I know.

100
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 3: What you'll need.

101
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 2: I have prepared a sheet of paper lifting this infamous

102
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,319
person's address, the places he frequents and so on.

103
00:05:53,319 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 3: Here's his photograph. It's an excellent light.

104
00:05:55,759 --> 00:05:57,639
Speaker 1: M you've come well prepared.

105
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 2: I'm paying you for your time. I won't have you

106
00:06:01,439 --> 00:06:03,160
waste one single moment.

107
00:06:04,079 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 3: I expected to tell the report of your propress.

108
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: That's one thing you can be sure you'll get out

109
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:13,600
of all this, missus Melbourne. I'll report a nice, neat, concise,

110
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:15,519
lever bound report.

111
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 4: Talking to cut the.

112
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 6: Mort and wanted to me, it's so lovely out here.

113
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:30,519
Speaker 1: Strift for a while.

114
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 6: Let's lie back and look up at the sun and

115
00:06:33,399 --> 00:06:34,279
not go anywhere?

116
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,439
Speaker 5: Yes, why not? Isn't that really what we're doing?

117
00:06:39,199 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: And dere is what do you mean?

118
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:46,959
Speaker 7: Aren't we just drifting? Not getting anywhere? I know, let's

119
00:06:46,959 --> 00:06:47,680
get married.

120
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,279
Speaker 6: I want that dear more than anything in the world.

121
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,519
Speaker 5: For no, why do we get married tomorrow?

122
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 7: Where anywhere there are enough judges clergymen.

123
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,079
Speaker 5: No, dear, you really don't want to marry me, do you.

124
00:06:59,399 --> 00:07:01,879
Speaker 6: What you're saying is let's go off and get married.

125
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:03,879
Speaker 5: Well, yes, that's what I'm saying.

126
00:07:03,959 --> 00:07:06,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, and your family will say, aha, we were right

127
00:07:06,959 --> 00:07:10,360
about what you know about what right in thinking of

128
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:11,800
something shady about me?

129
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,199
Speaker 1: See, he stole her away. No, I want us to

130
00:07:15,199 --> 00:07:16,079
be married properly.

131
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 6: Oh and you do too, you know, dear, you're really

132
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,800
a very old fashioned conservative girl at heart.

133
00:07:23,319 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 5: No I'm not.

134
00:07:24,279 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 6: Oh, are you on a formal wedding surrounded by your

135
00:07:26,839 --> 00:07:27,800
family and friend?

136
00:07:27,879 --> 00:07:30,279
Speaker 7: Let my sister and her brother say that they won't

137
00:07:30,319 --> 00:07:31,879
come very well.

138
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:33,959
Speaker 5: We gave them their chance, Darling.

139
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 6: A marriage should be forever, even though we both had

140
00:07:37,759 --> 00:07:41,480
previous experiences. But that might deny it. However, this is

141
00:07:41,519 --> 00:07:43,160
the real one for each of us.

142
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 5: Oh, yes, darling, it is. I know it is.

143
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 6: Then let's be patient, perhaps for just a little while.

144
00:07:50,319 --> 00:07:52,839
Speaker 5: I've been patient with my stupid sister long enough.

145
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 6: Let's give them a little more time and when they

146
00:07:55,199 --> 00:07:58,160
get to know me better. I don't care, darling. I

147
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,720
am doing this for you. If it were up to me,

148
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,959
we'd be standing before a justice of the peace tonight.

149
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,439
But your family means so much to you you want

150
00:08:06,439 --> 00:08:13,319
their approval. So let's wait a little while, all.

151
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,959
Speaker 5: Right, darling, But that's going to be a very little while.

152
00:08:24,759 --> 00:08:28,199
Speaker 1: Greetings, Lieutenant, What can I do for you? James? Well,

153

157
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,559

158
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,399
I don't know what he's done exactly, Lieutenant. I only

159
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:54,960
know what he wants to do. He wants to get married.

160
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,759

00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,720
fold the two How can we cross filing, Lieutenant, it mays,

168
00:09:29,759 --> 00:09:31,320
go have to look at a lot of pictures. Man,

169
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,519
you might want him one day yourself. What's this guy's

170
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,159
m well, if he has one, he's a confidence operator,

171
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:45,600
makes a habit of marrying wealthy widows. This mugshot here

172
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,799
on the file. Here's your guy in the picture, Walder Junes.

173
00:09:49,799 --> 00:09:52,919
It's his real name, age thirty three. Did two years

174
00:09:52,919 --> 00:09:55,879
for stock swindler. That's the only rap they ever got

175
00:09:55,919 --> 00:10:00,879
a moment. But look get what he be Yeah, suspicion

176
00:10:00,919 --> 00:10:06,320
of homicide Carolyn Jones' wife released, lack of evidence, Tried

177
00:10:06,399 --> 00:10:11,080
for murder, Julia Jones' wife acquitted. Yep, he now does

178
00:10:11,159 --> 00:10:14,919
the mad wife killers strike again, And Lieutenants, suspicion will

179
00:10:14,919 --> 00:10:17,799
get us nowhere and the time that he was tried

180
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,279
for and he beat it. I don't know what we

181
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,240
can do. So for all thing, he's already paid for

182
00:10:23,759 --> 00:10:26,679
the suspicious stone, neither here nor there. Legally he's innocent,

183
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:31,679
so he cannot be arrested. He can't be stopped. I'm

184
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,159
not out for an arrest, Lieutenant. All my clients sent

185
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:38,320
me to the store for was information and I got it. Thanks, lieutenant,

186
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,960
and thank your apartment for your courtesy and cooperation.

187
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,519
Speaker 2: This piece of paper is even more than I dared hope,

188
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,080
for not only is he at Speace, he is also

189
00:10:53,159 --> 00:10:53,879
a murderer.

190
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 1: Now that hasn't been proved. What do you plan to

191
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:58,480
do with this information.

192
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,080
Speaker 2: Lester shured, I shall gives it in a manner which

193
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:02,679
I aim to be most effective.

194
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,159
Speaker 1: Well, then i'd say the case is closed. You will

195
00:11:05,159 --> 00:11:07,000
receive the bill for my services.

196
00:11:07,799 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 3: And our wager.

197
00:11:08,519 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 2: All you did to earn your exorbitant fee was to

198
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:15,039
go down to police headquarters and ask a few simple questions.

199
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 1: Well, missus Melbourne, it's not just a question of who

200
00:11:17,399 --> 00:11:19,679
you know, it's what you know.

201
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:33,519
Speaker 7: Hello, Phyllis, Oh yes, and dear, how are you Phyllis?

202
00:11:34,039 --> 00:11:38,159
I want to invite you to my wedding, do you now?

203
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,200
I don't want you to go into an entire three

204
00:11:40,279 --> 00:11:42,799
act play about it. Walter and I intend to be

205
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,960
married this coming Sunday at Saint Maurice's at four. You

206
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,320
and the rest of the family can come and give

207
00:11:48,399 --> 00:11:50,600
us your blessing or not, as you see fit.

208
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 8: I ask you, what, darling, what makes you think we

209
00:11:54,519 --> 00:11:56,759
wouldn't come, Phyllis?

210
00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:58,759
Speaker 5: What are you saying?

211
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 3: Four o'clock court will be there? And then whatever.

212
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:07,080
Speaker 8: Reception is my house, Phyllis and Darling, I'm so happy

213
00:12:07,159 --> 00:12:07,480
for you.

214
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,840
Speaker 2: Don't let me call everyone goodbye, Dear, I'll talk with

215
00:12:10,879 --> 00:12:11,279
you later.

216
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:15,799
Speaker 5: What do you think of that?

217
00:12:16,039 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 1: What is it?

218
00:12:16,519 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 6: Then?

219
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:21,159
Speaker 7: They're coming, My family is actually coming, all of them.

220
00:12:20,639 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 5: Roy and Bob. Everywhere Phyllis causes shot.

221
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 6: I told you i'd see the light eventually. Now, aren't

222
00:12:26,759 --> 00:12:28,919
you glad we didn't run off somewhere and have this

223
00:12:29,039 --> 00:12:32,440
most meaningful and beautiful ceremony performed amongst strangers.

224
00:12:32,919 --> 00:12:36,279
Speaker 5: You were right, Dear, You're always.

225
00:12:36,039 --> 00:12:39,159
Speaker 6: Right to your on point of view. Dear, Eventually people

226
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,080
come around, Walter.

227
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,039
Speaker 5: I don't know what I'd ever do without you.

228
00:12:44,279 --> 00:12:47,320
Speaker 6: Don't worry, Anne, Darling, You'll never be without me.

229
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,399
Speaker 5: Phyllis, Yes, dear, what's keeping him all?

230
00:12:57,159 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 2: He may have been delayed in traffic, he's late. Now, Dear,

231
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:02,799
you must calm yourself.

232
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 5: Something's happened to him.

233
00:13:04,519 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 3: Nothing has happened to him.

234
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,279
Speaker 5: You did something to him?

235
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:09,639
Speaker 6: Me?

236
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,279
Speaker 3: Why what could I possibly do?

237
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 7: I don't know something I can tell by the look

238
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:15,679
on your pa Now.

239
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 4: I know that look.

240
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 7: Since we were children, you've had that wide, superior, all

241
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:21,240
knowing look.

242
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,039
Speaker 2: I don't know what you're talking about whenever you were

243
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,480
trying to put something over on me, But what could

244
00:13:26,519 --> 00:13:28,080
I be putting over on you?

245
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:31,679
Speaker 5: You're at the bottom of this of what a water disappearance?

246
00:13:32,279 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 1: Who says waters disappeared?

247
00:13:33,799 --> 00:13:37,159
Speaker 7: But why isn't he here? No, So if you did something,

248
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:38,559
you swore that you would.

249
00:13:38,399 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 5: Break this up, but that was before I got to

250
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,279
know Walter. This is your doing.

251
00:13:43,039 --> 00:13:45,960
Speaker 7: It's not going to work there somehow, someway, I am

252
00:13:46,039 --> 00:13:48,440
going to find Walter. If it takes me the rest

253
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,039
of my life and every dollar that I have in

254
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:55,080
this world, I'm going to find Walter. Nothing can keep

255
00:13:55,159 --> 00:14:00,120
us apart, nothing nobody.

256
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:07,399
Speaker 1: Well, there's a ringing endorsement for you. But what did

257
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,440
happen to Walter Jones? You know perfectly well he's not

258
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,799
going to show up at the church. But why not,

259
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,320
assuming the information on him in the police files is correct,

260
00:14:19,879 --> 00:14:25,000
isn't that his thing? Doesn't he marry rich women? Obviously

261
00:14:25,039 --> 00:14:27,440
we have a lot of ground to cover, and the

262
00:14:27,519 --> 00:14:39,399
second act will be with you in just a few moments.

263
00:14:43,519 --> 00:14:47,159
Some men can marry for love and some can marry

264
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:51,399
for money. And happy is he who can marry for both?

265
00:14:52,399 --> 00:14:57,000
Walter Jones now he appeared to be in an ideal situation,

266
00:14:57,639 --> 00:15:01,120
he seemed to be in love with Anne, and seven

267
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:05,960
figures are required to describe Anne's fortune. So why did

268
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:10,759
Walter leave Anne at the church? What does private investigator

269
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:17,720
Jim Kellogg think? I didn't think anything about it, if

270
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:21,039
you must know. Actually, as far as I was concerned,

271
00:15:21,039 --> 00:15:24,000
the case was closed. I'd already forgotten Walter Jones and

272
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,480
Missus Melvin and her sister Anne until one morning when

273
00:15:27,519 --> 00:15:32,000
my secretary came into my office. In case I mention

274
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:35,320
of the words secretary causes you to conjure up certain

275
00:15:35,799 --> 00:15:41,080
romantic fantasies, I'm a Cisco and shoe again. My secretary

276
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,559
was Ponsney glasses and has snow white hair, and the

277
00:15:43,559 --> 00:15:45,480
only reason I hired her is because she is the

278
00:15:45,519 --> 00:15:50,080
most efficient human being I ever encountered. Yes, Missus Haskell.

279
00:15:50,759 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 9: And missal in reference to what I believe it will

280
00:15:55,279 --> 00:16:01,080
concern a missing person, I am somewhat puzzled.

281
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 1: You puzzled, Missus Haskell. By what I see, it seems

282
00:16:06,519 --> 00:16:07,240
quite familiar.

283
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 4: But I just don't know why.

284
00:16:13,879 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 1: Missus Traynor entered my office. Looking at her, I'd say

285
00:16:17,279 --> 00:16:20,879
she was somewhere between thirty five and forty and still

286
00:16:20,879 --> 00:16:22,440
looking at her, I'd say she was one of the

287
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,679
most attractive women I'd ever met. But that was beside

288
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:29,600
the point. Missus Haskell was right. There was something strangely

289
00:16:29,639 --> 00:16:32,679
familiar about this woman, but I couldn't place it either.

290
00:16:33,799 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 7: I don't know how I feel about all this, mister Kellogg,

291
00:16:37,559 --> 00:16:40,120
what do you mean. I was walking down the street

292
00:16:40,159 --> 00:16:43,159
and it started to rain. I stepped into the lobby

293
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:44,720
of this building just to get out of the wet

294
00:16:44,799 --> 00:16:47,840
and I glanced at the directory and there was your name,

295
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:49,879
James Kellogg, Private investigator.

296
00:16:49,919 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 5: And right then and.

297
00:16:51,919 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 7: There I said to myself, why shouldn't I hire a

298
00:16:55,039 --> 00:16:55,960
private detective?

299
00:16:56,519 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: Why do you feel you need one?

300
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 7: I'm I'm terribly worried. My fiancee has disappeared. Yes, I

301
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:08,440
don't know what more I can tell you.

302
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 1: How long's he been gone?

303
00:17:10,599 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 5: It's three weeks.

304
00:17:12,079 --> 00:17:15,519
Speaker 7: He The truth is he left me waiting at the church.

305
00:17:16,079 --> 00:17:21,359
Sorry that I went to his apartment. The superintendent told

306
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,880
me that he he had moved out.

307
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:28,559
Speaker 1: No forwarding addressed, none. He talked to his friends, his family.

308
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 5: He has no family, and I never met any of

309
00:17:32,279 --> 00:17:34,599
his friends. You see, mister Kellogg. It was one of

310
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,640
those world wind courtships.

311
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 7: We were just two people who met and fell in

312
00:17:39,039 --> 00:17:41,279
love and decided to get married.

313
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,319
Speaker 1: Well, you know, there are certain people, as the wedding

314
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,759
date approaches who just well, I just become frightened and

315
00:17:47,799 --> 00:17:48,799
take off for a little while.

316
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,759
Speaker 7: Now, I refuse to believe that Walter did that. I

317
00:17:51,799 --> 00:17:54,359
am sure something terrible must have happened to him.

318
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:59,079
Speaker 1: Well, we'll see what we can do, Missus Trainer, we widowed,

319
00:17:59,079 --> 00:17:59,640
are divorced.

320
00:18:00,319 --> 00:18:01,480
Speaker 5: My first husband died.

321
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:06,559
Speaker 1: I see. And what is your fiance's name, Walter Jones?

322
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:17,440
I beg your pardon, Jones, Walter Jones, Yes, Walter Jones.

323
00:18:20,759 --> 00:18:23,240
That's why she were familiar. She was the sister of

324
00:18:23,279 --> 00:18:26,559
that impossible Melbourne woman. Same shape to the face, same

325
00:18:26,599 --> 00:18:28,559
color in the eyes, only on missus Trayner. It all

326
00:18:28,559 --> 00:18:32,160
looked good. However, this was not the time to admire

327
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,200
the physical attributes of Missus Traynor. I was now confronted

328
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:39,519
with a problem which seldom, if ever troubles most fictional detectives,

329
00:18:39,519 --> 00:18:41,599
the little matter of professional ethics.

330
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 5: He just disappeared suddenly, without a trace.

331
00:18:45,279 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: And your first name, Anne, you have a family.

332
00:18:49,319 --> 00:18:51,400
Speaker 5: Oh, yes, a sister and two brothers.

333
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 8: M h.

334
00:18:52,559 --> 00:18:54,200
Speaker 1: What was their attitude towards your fiance?

335
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,079
Speaker 5: They were violently opposed. They thought that Walter was after

336
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:01,519
my money. But that's impossible, are you sure, of course?

337
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,519
Speaker 7: And talking about money, I've plenty of it, so you

338
00:19:04,599 --> 00:19:06,759
needn't spare any expense in looking for Walter.

339
00:19:08,079 --> 00:19:08,640
Speaker 1: Excuse me?

340
00:19:09,319 --> 00:19:14,640
Speaker 9: Yes, I've been thinking why that missus Chaney looked so familiar.

341
00:19:15,319 --> 00:19:18,319
Speaker 4: Finally it came to me. Could it be she is

342
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,720
related to that Missus Melthy.

343
00:19:21,039 --> 00:19:27,640
Speaker 1: Yes, precisely, and it concerns an allied matter. Oh, it

344
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,440
will therefore be necessary for us to adopt an attitude

345
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,559
towards the situation, Missus Haskell. But don't you bother. I'll

346
00:19:33,559 --> 00:19:34,359
come out to see you.

347
00:19:35,799 --> 00:19:37,079
Speaker 5: You'll take the case, won't you?

348
00:19:37,079 --> 00:19:39,319
Speaker 1: Miss me? Would you excuse me for just one moment?

349
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:47,839
My secretary has the most urgent problem. Guess what she wants.

350
00:19:48,319 --> 00:19:50,839
Speaker 4: I would assume she wants you to sign his yante.

351
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,880
Speaker 1: Obviously, her sister, Missus Melbourne, didn't tell her that she

352
00:19:54,079 --> 00:19:57,359
hired me earlier to dig up Walter's past, nor any

353
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,839
of the specifics of that past either or she would

354
00:19:59,839 --> 00:20:03,359
have mentioned it. The question is, can I accept Missus

355
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:07,319
Traynor as a client. Well, wouldn't that be the same

356
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,319
thing as working both sides of the street.

357
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:11,759
Speaker 4: But not at the same time.

358
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:16,039
Speaker 1: Missus Melbourne hired me to break up the marriage. Well

359
00:20:16,039 --> 00:20:18,440
maybe not. I mean I never agreed to do that,

360
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,160
of course not how could she? All I was required

361
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,160
to do was to secure certain information concerning Walter Jones,

362
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,920
and your client was now another client, quite by coincidence,

363
00:20:29,079 --> 00:20:34,240
also wants information concerning the same Walter Jones, specifically his whereabouts.

364
00:20:34,279 --> 00:20:36,960
Now is there any legitimate reason why I shouldn't take

365
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:37,400
the case.

366
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,519
Speaker 4: None that attends to me at the moment.

367
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,599
Speaker 1: Only one thing puzzles me is what can a woman

368
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,880
with her looks and charm see in a phony like

369
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:48,920
this Walter Jones?

370
00:20:49,759 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 10: Tell me, mister, is that a legitimate area of curiosity

371
00:20:55,039 --> 00:20:56,960
for a private to take to?

372
00:20:58,079 --> 00:21:06,039
Speaker 1: Well, I'm I'm talking now a man, Missus Traynor. Tell

373
00:21:06,079 --> 00:21:07,880
me everything you know about Walter Jones.

374
00:21:08,279 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 5: I don't know very much. I only know I love him.

375
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 1: Much of marriage require a firmer foundation, such as I

376
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:21,279
would assume knowing something about each other's habits, tastes, attitudes,

377
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:22,160
so forth.

378
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,319
Speaker 7: And how much did you know about your wife before

379
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,440
you married her. I've never been married, then you hardly

380
00:21:27,519 --> 00:21:28,599
qualify as an expert.

381
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:32,279
Speaker 1: Still, it would seem that a successful union is based

382
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,720
upon mutual interests knowledge of each other.

383
00:21:35,039 --> 00:21:37,039
Speaker 5: You keep saying it's important to know all about the

384
00:21:37,039 --> 00:21:38,240
person you intend to marry.

385
00:21:38,319 --> 00:21:42,400
Speaker 7: I say nonsense, pure unadulterated nonsense.

386
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,319
Speaker 5: Love at first sight. That's what it was between Walter

387
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:46,960
Jones and me.

388
00:21:48,039 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 1: Love at first sight.

389
00:21:49,599 --> 00:21:50,839
Speaker 5: It's the only real way.

390
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 4: Mister kenn have you begun work on Missus Traynor's case?

391
00:21:59,559 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 1: It, Missus Haskell, I have Well?

392
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 10: Do you suppose you had any operational reports from each tape?

393
00:22:05,559 --> 00:22:07,880
Speaker 1: Seems a shame to turn a man like Waller Jones

394
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:09,039
loose on Missus Trayner.

395
00:22:09,799 --> 00:22:13,400
Speaker 4: That's not our problem, mister Kellogg, Is it no?

396
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:13,640
Speaker 1: No?

397
00:22:14,079 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 4: And do you want me to hire some temporary.

398
00:22:16,599 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 1: Operative Missus Haskell? Do you believe in love at first sight?

399
00:22:21,599 --> 00:22:22,880
Speaker 9: Oh?

400
00:22:23,079 --> 00:22:27,160
Speaker 10: I remember forty five years ago I was standing on

401
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,960
the street corner. A young man drove past and splashed

402
00:22:31,079 --> 00:22:32,519
mud all over my leg.

403
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,279
Speaker 1: I didn't think women chowed their legs in those days.

404
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 10: I had lifted my skirt to step over the puddle,

405
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,880
and the young man apologized.

406
00:22:41,079 --> 00:22:43,920
Speaker 4: To you, slick. We looked at each other then, and

407
00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:48,680
there we knew. We both knew. Does that answer your question?

408
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: I'll be leaving town for several days, Missus Haskell, with.

409
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,640
Speaker 4: Whom did you fall in love at her? Sight?

410
00:22:55,799 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 1: Now, that is a ridiculous question.

411
00:22:58,799 --> 00:22:59,680
Speaker 4: I didn't have to.

412
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 1: Sargian. I understand about seven years ago, you were the

413
00:23:10,039 --> 00:23:12,640
arresting officer and the Julia Jones murder case.

414
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, let's it try it out. It wasn't the murder,

415
00:23:16,079 --> 00:23:17,799
so it never even got to be a case.

416
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,279
Speaker 1: What happened? Oh, she was an older dame.

417
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:24,039
Speaker 6: They went out in their boat. She drowned. He claimed

418
00:23:24,039 --> 00:23:28,119
she fell overboard. Pretty heavy insurance there, and so the

419
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,000
relatives started pointing fingers.

420
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:30,920
Speaker 1: How did it work out?

421
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 4: Well?

422
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,400
Speaker 6: I just booked him on sufficient. The DA figured he

423
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:35,799
didn't have enough for an indictment.

424
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,799
Speaker 1: The thing just dissolved. And what do you think?

425
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,880
Speaker 6: Well, I guess we'll never know.

426
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:49,039
Speaker 1: Huh, mister Pope. I understand you're the attorney who prosecuted

427
00:23:49,079 --> 00:23:50,960
Walter Jones a few years ago for the murder of

428
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:54,720
his wife Betty. I was the assistant, and that little

429
00:23:54,759 --> 00:23:58,160
case may have cost the DA his job. I never

430
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,480
saw anything fall apart the way one did he murder

431
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,519
his wife? You haven't murdered anybody until the jury says,

432
00:24:04,559 --> 00:24:07,599
So how did it go? She was his second wife.

433
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:11,039
He claimed she had been acting nuddices and so on

434
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,839
that night she came at him with a revolver, so

435
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,279
they grappled with her. It went on and killed her.

436
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,519
And doesn't sound like the strongest story in the world. No,

437
00:24:19,599 --> 00:24:22,920
and especially since it came out that his first wife

438
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,880
had died a few years before under what might have

439
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:31,039
been suspicious circumstances drowning. Yeah, well, my ex boss, the

440
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:35,160
DA was politically ambitious. He saw a chance to get publicity.

441
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,720
He figured there'd be no trouble getting a verdict of

442
00:24:37,759 --> 00:24:41,680
first degree murder. Considering Walter jones past record. What went wrong?

443
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:46,519
Everything turned out the wife had been psychotic, She had

444
00:24:46,519 --> 00:24:49,200
threatened to kill him in front of witnesses. There was

445
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,680
so much doubt that judge made a directed charge for acquittal.

446
00:24:53,799 --> 00:24:56,920
Or what do you think? Well, if he married my daughter,

447
00:24:57,839 --> 00:25:04,480
I don't think i'd sleep nights.

448
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,799
Speaker 4: Well, mister knock, what did you discover it?

449
00:25:07,319 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: I've discovered that we can't take a chance. Oh what

450
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,599
know that you'ld be on whom I'm mister Walter Jones.

451
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,000
How do you mean that he may or may not

452
00:25:16,039 --> 00:25:19,079
be a murderer. He may or may not have murdered

453
00:25:19,079 --> 00:25:20,880
his previous wives for their money.

454
00:25:21,279 --> 00:25:23,799
Speaker 10: Is this what you're client is paying you to find avage?

455
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,960
I was under the impressions she wanted you to find him.

456
00:25:27,039 --> 00:25:30,039
Speaker 1: And if I do, she'll marry him to pay country.

457
00:25:30,079 --> 00:25:32,119
But I can't take that chance. I mean, suppose he

458
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:33,559
kills her too. She's very rich.

459
00:25:33,799 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 4: Why not show her the worker?

460
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,279
Speaker 1: No, that won't stop her. She'll say he's being framed.

461
00:25:37,839 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 4: Hey, what do you propose to do?

462
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,279
Speaker 1: I don't know. She's a woman who has a terrific

463
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:43,119
sense of loyalty.

464
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 4: H Then why not drop the kid?

465
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:46,519
Speaker 11: No?

466
00:25:46,559 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 1: I couldn't have learned.

467
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:47,839
Speaker 4: Why not?

468
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 1: Because she just goes somewhere else, find somebody else to

469
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:51,799
find Walter Jones.

470
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,559
Speaker 5: What happened to Walter Jones?

471
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:54,640
Speaker 1: No, he'll turn up.

472
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:56,839
Speaker 4: What makes you so sure?

473
00:25:57,319 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 1: Anyway? Right now, I have a really pressing problem. When

474
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,759
it suits his purpose, Jones will show up to marry

475
00:26:04,799 --> 00:26:08,200
Ann Trainer. There's only one way I can say. How

476
00:26:09,079 --> 00:26:11,359
I have to make her forget Walter Jones.

477
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 4: Once again, mister Kellogg.

478
00:26:14,559 --> 00:26:19,279
Speaker 1: How how well, there's only one way by making a

479
00:26:19,319 --> 00:26:33,119
fall in love with me. Well, here we have Private

480
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:37,880
Detective James Kellogg, who may be somewhat out of his debts.

481
00:26:38,759 --> 00:26:41,319
From what you know of them, He's not the swashbuckling

482
00:26:41,559 --> 00:26:46,119
romantic hero, and yet he is proposing a most swashbuckling

483
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:50,960
romantic ploy. Well, he's never done anything like this before,

484
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:56,000
which means that Act three should contain surprises for all

485
00:26:56,039 --> 00:27:13,000
of us. There is always the conflict between desire and duty.

486
00:27:13,799 --> 00:27:18,960
For instance, duty compels Jim Kellogg to find Walter Jones.

487
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,599
Desire would have Jim make sure Walter never shows up

488
00:27:23,599 --> 00:27:28,720
at all. Most people finally decide to yield to desire

489
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:33,279
or heed the call of duty. Jim, on the other hand,

490
00:27:33,839 --> 00:27:38,480
has decided to do both, which means he will try

491
00:27:38,519 --> 00:27:43,359
to find Walter Jones and not find him at the

492
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:43,920
same time.

493
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:49,039
Speaker 10: I'm not really sure I heard what you said, mister Kellogg.

494
00:27:49,519 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: I said I would make missus Trainers fall in love

495
00:27:51,759 --> 00:27:54,039
with me. Missus askill, he said.

496
00:27:53,839 --> 00:27:55,400
Speaker 4: He after co procedure.

497
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,279
Speaker 1: Mister Tillo, how can I permit her to marry Walter Jones?

498
00:27:58,279 --> 00:28:01,079
He he may be a killer, give her the facts

499
00:28:01,279 --> 00:28:04,240
and allow her to make her own decisions. Being a woman,

500
00:28:04,559 --> 00:28:09,880
she'd only be confused. I meant nothing deprecatory. I have

501
00:28:10,039 --> 00:28:12,839
every respectful woman's intellectual capacity.

502
00:28:12,839 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 3: Oh thank you.

503
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:18,839
Speaker 1: But a woman in love is a strange creature. That's

504
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,960
because love itself is not a rational state. A revelation

505
00:28:23,039 --> 00:28:24,960
of the facts would only make her fall more deeply

506
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,559
in love with Walter Jones. Why because it also give

507
00:28:27,599 --> 00:28:30,200
her a chance to be a martyr. She could say,

508
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,519
You see, the whole world is against him, but I

509
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:33,720
shall stand by him.

510
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 10: From a practical point of view, mister Kellogg, how do

511
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,599
you intend to make Missus Chayer fall.

512
00:28:40,359 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 4: In love with you?

513
00:28:42,039 --> 00:28:44,960
Speaker 1: Well, I hadn't thought about that, but there are there

514
00:28:45,039 --> 00:28:47,200
are difficulties you would have to overcome.

515
00:28:47,759 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 10: For instance, well, Walter Jones is quite tall.

516
00:28:54,039 --> 00:28:54,599
Speaker 4: You are.

517
00:28:56,039 --> 00:28:56,200
Speaker 11: Rich.

518
00:28:56,759 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 1: Height isn't everything.

519
00:28:57,839 --> 00:29:00,599
Speaker 4: Mister Jones is striking handsome.

520
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: Well, people are like fruit. It's not the outer husk

521
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,759
of the shell, it's the kernel, the meat, the true

522
00:29:07,799 --> 00:29:08,880
substance inside.

523
00:29:09,359 --> 00:29:12,559
Speaker 10: In the conversations I have held this, Missus Traynor, I'll

524
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:17,759
understand Walter Jones talks biffly and a magic.

525
00:29:18,079 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 1: Missus Haskell. Missus Traynor will fall in love with me

526
00:29:22,599 --> 00:29:24,680
because it's the right thing for her to do.

527
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 7: I've been trying to reach you for these past few

528
00:29:33,079 --> 00:29:34,519
days to see if there's been any problem.

529
00:29:34,599 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 1: Oh, I was out of town, Missus Trayner.

530
00:29:36,279 --> 00:29:37,119
Speaker 5: I'm so worried.

531
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,599
Speaker 7: Is it possible for a person to disappear without leaving

532
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:41,599
a single place?

533
00:29:42,039 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 1: Look, it's noontime. I'll take you to lunch.

534
00:29:44,319 --> 00:29:46,359
Speaker 5: Oh, I'm not hungry. I can't think of food.

535
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,799
Speaker 1: We might be able to discuss some important matters.

536
00:29:49,319 --> 00:29:52,359
Speaker 7: Oh, if we're going to talk about finding Walter, then

537
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:53,119
that's something else.

538
00:29:57,519 --> 00:30:00,799
Speaker 5: I think this is the first full meal in weeks.

539
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 7: I've been so nervous enough everything since Walter disappeared.

540
00:30:05,359 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 1: You know you look very attractive when you eat? Yes?

541
00:30:09,759 --> 00:30:12,880
Speaker 5: Oh, my goodness, do you realize that was what Walter

542
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:13,400
said to me?

543
00:30:13,599 --> 00:30:16,480
Speaker 7: Walter, I was sitting in a coffee shop having lunch

544
00:30:16,519 --> 00:30:18,920
by myself, when a stunning looking man said to me,

545
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,079
do you know that you look very attractive.

546
00:30:21,559 --> 00:30:22,119
Speaker 4: When you eat?

547
00:30:22,839 --> 00:30:23,839
Speaker 5: We both laughed.

548
00:30:24,799 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 7: It was as if we had laughed together so often

549
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:31,119
in the past. He was the kind of man that

550
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:32,079
I wanted.

551
00:30:31,799 --> 00:30:35,759
Speaker 5: All my life. Oh, mister Kellogg, You've got to find

552
00:30:35,799 --> 00:30:38,640
him for me. You've got to promise.

553
00:30:39,599 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 1: I promise.

554
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,519
Speaker 5: Good. Now, let's hurry back to the office.

555
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 7: The office, Yes, that's the most important place in my

556
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,440
life right now, because it's the brain center, the place

557
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,160
where the strategy to find.

558
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 4: Walter's being formulated.

559
00:30:52,799 --> 00:30:55,319
Speaker 5: The poem should be ringing. Undercover men should be coming

560
00:30:55,319 --> 00:30:57,920
in an hour. World, I've no patience to do anything else.

561
00:30:57,960 --> 00:30:59,079
Don't be anywhere else, and.

562
00:30:59,119 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: I wanna help help.

563
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 5: Please let me.

564
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:06,319
Speaker 7: I get onto the phones, take messages, assist miss's hospital.

565
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 5: But please let me be a part of it.

566
00:31:16,599 --> 00:31:18,839
Speaker 4: I see I have an assistant.

567
00:31:19,079 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 1: What can I do? She's the client?

568
00:31:21,599 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 4: How is your campaign coming?

569
00:31:23,519 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 2: Which campaign the one that's supposed to make her fall.

570
00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 4: In love with you?

571
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:28,480
Speaker 1: I don't know.

572
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:32,799
Speaker 10: Mister Kellogg's my husband and I agreed that I would

573
00:31:32,799 --> 00:31:36,920
work here because we felt you were an unusually ethical man.

574
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,599
Speaker 1: Well, I try, is.

575
00:31:39,599 --> 00:31:44,279
Speaker 4: What you're doing now, africal? What do you mean you

576
00:31:44,319 --> 00:31:46,960
are being paid to find Walter Jones.

577
00:31:47,319 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 1: I'm looking for Walter Jones.

578
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 4: I am your private secretary. If you're doing any investigating,

579
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:54,200
it isn't a parent to me.

580
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 1: What should I be doing? You should be out looking

581
00:31:57,279 --> 00:31:59,440
for Walter Jones by the same token I could be

582
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:00,960
in looking for Walter Jones.

583
00:32:01,599 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 5: There is every possibility that he is a murderer.

584
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:06,559
Speaker 4: And I can understand your.

585
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:11,319
Speaker 1: Feelings, but you're missus Haskell. I'm doing this my own way,

586
00:32:11,799 --> 00:32:13,880
and it's the only way that has a chance of success.

587
00:32:14,359 --> 00:32:15,920
Speaker 4: And what is that way.

588
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 1: It's a line of investigation that has to be kept confidential,

589
00:32:19,079 --> 00:32:21,039
even from you. I hope you understand.

590
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:22,079
Speaker 4: Oh, I understand.

591
00:32:23,079 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 10: It probably has to be kept confidential because it doesn't exist.

592
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,599
Speaker 7: Oh, I don't think I could concentrate on tennis, mister

593
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:38,240
kill Well.

594
00:32:38,279 --> 00:32:40,960
Speaker 1: Fitness that's a must for a detective, and right now

595
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,039
you are a detective. Come on, you need some air,

596
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:46,799
some sun, some exercise, that's right.

597
00:32:47,559 --> 00:32:49,279
Speaker 5: I must be strong for Walter.

598
00:33:00,039 --> 00:33:06,559
Speaker 6: I thought, I guess it was a game that match.

599
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:07,200
Speaker 4: You beat me.

600
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,759
Speaker 7: It was all I could do, even score a single

601
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:12,279
point off Walker.

602
00:33:12,839 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 5: What a marvelous tennis player. And he had a killer

603
00:33:16,039 --> 00:33:18,960
instinct he did huh. He was playing with me.

604
00:33:19,039 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 4: He couldn't let up.

605
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 5: He had to play all out.

606
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:22,519
Speaker 4: All the time.

607
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 1: Dolly about Walter's killer instinct? Can you know anything about

608
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:28,839
his past? Oh?

609
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:32,519
Speaker 5: I don't care about his past. He was honest with me.

610
00:33:32,599 --> 00:33:37,599
He told me he'd been married twice before. Not important.

611
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:39,519
Speaker 1: I suppose it should turn out that he hadn't led

612
00:33:39,559 --> 00:33:42,599
a very exemplary kind of life.

613
00:33:43,359 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 7: That's a very duffy way of putting it. That's exactly

614
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,000
how my late husband, Edgar would have said it. Oh,

615
00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:50,599
that's kill.

616
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 5: You could learn how to relax, you and men like Edgar.

617
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 1: Why don't you call me jim?

618
00:33:57,039 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 7: Oh no, you're the mister type, the correct for proper

619
00:34:01,599 --> 00:34:02,440
mister type.

620
00:34:10,639 --> 00:34:13,079
Speaker 1: Good morning, mister kill out, Good morning, missus Haswell.

621
00:34:13,559 --> 00:34:15,239
Speaker 4: I don't mind telling you that.

622
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 10: However lofty your motives, I slowly disagree with your tactics

623
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:23,119
in this case, ordinary I would have resigned in protest.

624
00:34:23,159 --> 00:34:23,880
Speaker 1: Are you sure you.

625
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 4: Are about to receive your come up?

626
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:28,639
Speaker 1: And what do you mean?

627
00:34:29,039 --> 00:34:31,880
Speaker 10: Missus Trainer is waiting in your office? M and I

628
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:33,519
would say, she appears to be.

629
00:34:33,519 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 4: Somewhat missed, miffed. Surely you knew you were headed for trouble.

630
00:34:38,639 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 5: Well, sir, it has finally arrived.

631
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:41,880
Speaker 1: What are you talking about?

632
00:34:42,079 --> 00:34:43,119
Speaker 4: Why don't you ask her?

633
00:34:46,199 --> 00:34:49,159
Speaker 1: Good morning, missus Trennor, mister Keller.

634
00:34:50,159 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 5: May I have the bill for your services rendered to date.

635
00:34:53,639 --> 00:34:54,639
Speaker 1: Why, missus Trayner.

636
00:34:55,519 --> 00:34:58,760
Speaker 5: You've been very pleasant. You've taken me to lunch, to dinner,

637
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:03,679
to tennis, god theaters. You've done everything but look for

638
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:04,679
Walter Jones.

639
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:06,519
Speaker 1: But I have been looking for Please.

640
00:35:07,079 --> 00:35:09,599
Speaker 7: I was married to a businessman for over twenty years.

641
00:35:09,639 --> 00:35:11,599
I know when things are being done in a business

642
00:35:11,679 --> 00:35:14,719
like fashion. No work has been done in this office

643
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:18,559
on Walter Jones. There's been no phone calls, no reports.

644
00:35:19,679 --> 00:35:22,159
It dawned on me that you are not looking for Walter.

645
00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:28,400
I asked myself why, and then I realized you're in

646
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:29,639
love with me, mister Killog.

647
00:35:30,679 --> 00:35:31,480
Speaker 5: Do you admit it?

648
00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:37,880
Speaker 7: Yes, well, it's impossible. Why because I love Walter.

649
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 1: It's quite possible. He murdered two wives.

650
00:35:40,679 --> 00:35:41,599
Speaker 5: It's impossible.

651
00:35:41,639 --> 00:35:42,639
Speaker 1: I can show you the record.

652
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,840
Speaker 5: I have seen the record. Walter was completely honest.

653
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,760
Speaker 7: He told me the police were suspicious, and he agreed

654
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:50,760
that they had caused to.

655
00:35:50,679 --> 00:35:52,679
Speaker 1: Be part of the account for his first wife's drumming.

656
00:35:53,039 --> 00:35:56,159
Speaker 5: She fell overboard. It was foggy, he couldn't find her.

657
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,159
Speaker 1: You believe that the authority believed that they refused to

658
00:35:59,199 --> 00:36:00,800
prosecute accidental death.

659
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:03,800
Speaker 3: I might accept the two he was terribly lonesome.

660
00:36:04,159 --> 00:36:07,280
Speaker 7: He needed companionship. He married in haste and she was

661
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:08,039
a psychotic.

662
00:36:08,079 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 5: It was obvious.

663
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:10,639
Speaker 1: And how will I account for your murder?

664
00:36:11,159 --> 00:36:13,519
Speaker 7: I think that's despicable, all right, missus Trayner.

665
00:36:13,559 --> 00:36:15,159
Speaker 1: I am in love with you.

666
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:16,960
Speaker 5: See what I mean? You're in love with me? And

667
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:20,280
you call me missus Traynor. You weren't trying to find

668
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:21,719
Walter Joe and I was.

669
00:36:23,599 --> 00:36:27,400
Speaker 1: Excuse me, yes, mister Kennock.

670
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:31,239
Speaker 10: I walked to apologize. You were looking for.

671
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 7: Walter Joe after all.

672
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:36,960
Speaker 10: Benny Smith just called and said he's living at nineteen

673
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:42,639
lad Stone Oval. His stone number is five five five

674
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,239
eight three oh eight.

675
00:36:46,519 --> 00:36:47,679
Speaker 1: Thank you, missus Haskell.

676
00:36:48,679 --> 00:36:50,840
Speaker 5: Now I want to settle up our account. Send me

677
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,320
a bill. I shall hire another detective who will really

678
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:55,000
look for Walter.

679
00:36:55,159 --> 00:36:57,159
Speaker 1: That won't be necessary. I just found him for him.

680
00:36:58,119 --> 00:36:58,960
Speaker 5: What do you say?

681
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 1: Do you want to know how your sister hired me

682
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,320
to dig up his past and I found his past record.

683
00:37:06,079 --> 00:37:09,199
I gave it to her. She obviously decided to confront

684
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,639
him scare him away. She probably paid him off.

685
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 5: It doesn't make sense. If she has this record, why

686
00:37:16,519 --> 00:37:17,679
should she pay him off?

687
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,719
Speaker 1: The scenario she shows in the record. He says, Anne

688
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,400
won't care. She says, can you take that chance? Settle

689
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,760
for a little Walter, take a few bucks and beat it.

690
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,599
So he takes it. But he's going to keep coming

691
00:37:31,639 --> 00:37:35,239
back and taking more and more, and when he's drained

692
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,639
to dry, then he'll show up and claim you in

693
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:39,639
a main fortune.

694
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,159
Speaker 5: This is a most despicable lie.

695
00:37:42,159 --> 00:37:45,320
Speaker 1: How do you think I found Walter Jones? I had

696
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:49,239
a man watching your sister's house. Walter's been calling on her.

697
00:37:50,119 --> 00:37:51,199
Speaker 5: I refuse to believe it.

698
00:37:51,199 --> 00:37:52,119
Speaker 1: I don't want to believe it.

699
00:37:52,599 --> 00:37:53,639
Speaker 5: Where's his phone number?

700
00:37:53,639 --> 00:37:58,360
Speaker 1: Here on this pad? Finally, finally, and listen to me.

701
00:37:58,480 --> 00:37:59,400
He doesn't love you?

702
00:38:00,119 --> 00:38:11,840
Speaker 4: Alive? You safe? Hello, Walter?

703
00:38:13,559 --> 00:38:13,880
Speaker 1: Done?

704
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,079
Speaker 8: Hell?

705
00:38:16,079 --> 00:38:17,400
Speaker 5: Why did you disappear?

706
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:21,000
Speaker 6: And I began to worry that you might begin to

707
00:38:21,039 --> 00:38:23,559
think about my record and have dounts?

708
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:29,760
Speaker 5: Oh you fool, you wonderful fool. Do you love me?

709
00:38:30,039 --> 00:38:32,320
Speaker 1: Ooh man, I love you so much.

710
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,599
Speaker 5: Please come to my apartment. I'll be home in twenty minutes.

711
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:37,039
Speaker 4: I love you.

712
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:42,280
Speaker 7: I am so grateful to you. Mister Kellogg. Send me

713
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:42,800
the bill.

714
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,360
Speaker 1: He doesn't love you. He does, I can prove it.

715
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,159
Speaker 5: How could you prove such a thing. It's impossible.

716
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:50,320
Speaker 1: You don't want me to prove it.

717
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:54,280
Speaker 5: It can't be done. Walter and I are completely in love,

718
00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:55,079
all right.

719
00:38:55,119 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 1: You're afraid, and I don't blame you.

720
00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:58,679
Speaker 5: What would I be afraid of?

721
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,840
Speaker 1: Afraid to put his love to test? What test I

722
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:04,320
say that only wants is your money? And I propose

723
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,880
a test that can prove it. But you're afraid.

724
00:39:07,639 --> 00:39:10,079
Speaker 7: I am sick and tired of the synatism showed by you,

725
00:39:10,159 --> 00:39:13,000
and my sister and my brothers, and everybody wants to

726
00:39:13,039 --> 00:39:16,679
brand Walter Jones for life. I'd like to write that

727
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:20,199
self righteous smirk right off your face. You know, if

728
00:39:20,199 --> 00:39:22,400
you have a legitimate way to put his love to

729
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:25,480
the test, I'll give you the chance to go wrong.

730
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:37,119
Speaker 6: Oh, is a Missus Traynor at home. She just stepped

731
00:39:37,119 --> 00:39:39,400
out for a few minutes. She's expecting me. My name

732
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:41,400
is Walter Jones. I'm missus Trainer's fiance.

733
00:39:41,639 --> 00:39:43,480
Speaker 1: Oh well, won't you come in? Thank you?

734
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:47,639
Speaker 6: Are you a friend of Ben's.

735
00:39:48,639 --> 00:39:51,159
Speaker 1: I'm afraid you wouldn't think so. Actually, I've been appointed

736
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:55,079
receiver by the court. What did you say? Well, since

737
00:39:55,119 --> 00:39:58,719
you're Missus Trainer's fiance, surely you should know what's going on?

738
00:39:59,199 --> 00:39:59,440
Speaker 11: Say?

739
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:00,360
Speaker 6: What is go going on?

740
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:02,159
Speaker 4: Who are those men?

741
00:40:02,199 --> 00:40:02,760
Speaker 7: What do they do?

742
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:04,320
Speaker 1: Easy boy, it's easy? Was it?

743
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:04,400
Speaker 7: If?

744
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:08,159
Speaker 1: I haven't say? Don't ship that table? But it should

745
00:40:08,199 --> 00:40:12,079
be obvious, mister Jones, I'm the receiver in bankruptcy and

746
00:40:12,119 --> 00:40:14,039
the man here are removing the furniture. You can put

747
00:40:14,039 --> 00:40:14,760
two and two together.

748
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:16,679
Speaker 6: No, no, wait, I'm not sure I understand that.

749
00:40:16,679 --> 00:40:18,760
Speaker 1: Little all be in the papers tonight. Anyway, it wasn't

750
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:22,039
generally known, but Missus Trainor's husband left the company in

751
00:40:22,159 --> 00:40:25,159
bad shape. When he died, they declared bankruptcy. We in

752
00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:30,199
order to attach Missus Trainer's assets too, Missus Trainers. Yeah,

753
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:34,280
you know her bank accounts, jewels, spurs, furnishings. She was

754
00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:35,960
on the books, you see, as an officer of the corporation.

755
00:40:36,159 --> 00:40:38,320
Speaker 6: Wait a minute, According to the law, an officer of

756
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:40,400
the corporation is not responsible for see.

757
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:42,679
Speaker 1: You know your law. That's true ordinarily, but in this

758
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:46,880
case we have reason to suspect fraud. Paul, I think

759
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:51,360
she'll be stripped clean. But she's lucky she have you

760
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:52,119
to take care of her.

761
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:52,760
Speaker 4: Me.

762
00:40:53,559 --> 00:40:57,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, you said you were a fiance, and I'm sure

763
00:40:57,079 --> 00:40:58,000
you misunderstood.

764
00:40:58,039 --> 00:41:00,039
Speaker 6: I said I was a friend of her fiance and

765
00:41:00,159 --> 00:41:03,719
I was passing through, and I just thought i'd say hello.

766
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,320
Speaker 1: Well, sit down, I mean, she'll be right back. I'm

767
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:07,800
sure she could use some cheering up.

768
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:09,519
Speaker 6: Oh I wish I could do that, but I have

769
00:41:09,559 --> 00:41:10,480
a plan to catch her.

770
00:41:10,519 --> 00:41:12,079
Speaker 1: Hmm, well I'll tell her you were here.

771
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:12,960
Speaker 6: Thank you.

772
00:41:13,159 --> 00:41:22,960
Speaker 1: Goodbye. Jim Walter Jones dropped by to say hello, so

773
00:41:23,119 --> 00:41:30,480
I heard. I'm sorry you win and maybe won the battle,

774
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:31,920
lost the war.

775
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 7: No, when I saw the two of you side by side,

776
00:41:38,599 --> 00:41:41,280
I realized that I was really very happy with my

777
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:42,320
first husband.

778
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:44,079
Speaker 1: I'm not a very exciting guy.

779
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 5: Well, at least I can be sure of one thing.

780
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:50,239
You'll never kill me for the insurance.

781
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:55,679
Speaker 7: And no woman who married Walter Jones could ever make

782
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:56,960
that statement.

783
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:08,440
Speaker 1: Proving that we should all be grateful for small favors.

784
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:15,239
Walter Jones is presumably still at large, happily married or

785
00:42:15,519 --> 00:42:20,400
happily bereaved. And yet why are we coming down so

786
00:42:20,679 --> 00:42:25,000
hard on the man? All of it is circumstantial. He

787
00:42:25,079 --> 00:42:28,880
could be as innocent as a newborn babe. But don't

788
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:34,320
bet on it. Don't bet on anything except perhaps on

789
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:50,760
my coming back in just a few moments. We look down,

790
00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:54,400
perhaps on a beautiful girl who marries an older man

791
00:42:54,679 --> 00:42:58,480
for his money. But do we ever stop to consider

792
00:42:58,599 --> 00:43:03,559
why he married her? True, she wouldn't marry him if

793
00:43:03,599 --> 00:43:07,920
he were poor, But would he marry her if she

794
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:15,599
were old and repulsive? Why do people marry people? In retrospect?

795
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:19,719
We have presented a story of marriage and the morrow

796
00:43:20,199 --> 00:43:23,440
is anyone you care to take away with you? We

797
00:43:23,639 --> 00:43:28,960
present these cautionary tales, complete with morals, seven times each week.

798
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:33,960
Our cast included Mandel Kramer, Patsy Brewder, E. V. Justter,

799
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:38,639

803
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:55,440
our Mystery Theater for another adventure in the macabre. Until

804

805

00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,400
this weekend trying to avoid it a fault by the state.

812
00:44:44,159 --> 00:44:48,559
The city of Yonkers today narrowly avoided default. Westchester congressman

813

calls for another look at the welfare system. It's thirty

leaders will be busy this weekend trying to agree on

822
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,480
some sort of plugging that disputed hole in the budget.

823
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:22,320
The reason for the rush is this, as things now stand,

824
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:26,199
the Housing Finance Agency and Dormitory Authority don't have the

825
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,280
