10
00:01:06,359 --> 00:01:10,359
slight difference in the opening, as I am in Orlando

11
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,680
today and I am here for the twelfth annual podcast.

12
00:01:14,879 --> 00:01:18,680
Uh maybe a little more on that later, but here

13
00:01:18,799 --> 00:01:24,040
from nineteen fifty six or nineteen fifty seven, here is

14
00:01:24,159 --> 00:01:50,799
the seafarer Mystery.

15
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 2: Danger where Ranger.

16
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:58,719
Speaker 3: Come in. Interesting. Yes, I am I'm not your candle.

17
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,719
Speaker 4: I want you to do something for me, sure.

18
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 3: But she's better sit down a candle, things go run here,

19
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:13,280
sit right here? Well, then, what it's all about the l.

20
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 4: I had your confidence to I minded the letters, but

21
00:02:18,599 --> 00:02:22,479
they weren't quite as bad as the telephone calls at six.

22
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:22,759
Speaker 2: In the morning.

23
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 3: You've been receiving threatening calls and letters? Is that it?

24
00:02:26,199 --> 00:02:28,000
What are they say? The same thing?

25
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 4: The letters, the voice on the telephone. I recognize his voice,

26
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:32,680
his handwriting.

27
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 3: You know this man he's blackmailing? Certainly I know him.

28
00:02:36,719 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 4: He's my husband.

29
00:02:38,599 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 3: You mean your own husband? Are sending a threatening notes? Yes?

30
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,719
That certainly should be easy to stop. I didn't think,

31
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,120
mister Granger. Why not?

32
00:02:47,159 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 4: Because my husband died three months ago.

33
00:02:52,719 --> 00:02:55,759
Speaker 3: And Steve Granger, private detective, the story about a woman

34
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,759
a series of threatening notes and telephone calls along with

35
00:02:58,759 --> 00:03:01,919
a very feather skating and murder. And that's the moment

36
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,400
I'll take you back to one of my most interesting pies.

37
00:03:13,719 --> 00:03:16,520
This This Granger came as quite a shock when a

38
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,560
woman who was my client announced she was getting notes

39
00:03:18,599 --> 00:03:21,599
on telephone calls from a dead husband. That seemed like

40
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,560
it was more of a shock to her than to me,

41
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:25,960
because as soon as she'd got that much out, she

42
00:03:26,039 --> 00:03:29,039
keeled over and a dead faint. And just to make

43
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,400
matters worse, that was the moment my newspaper Pale cal

44
00:03:32,439 --> 00:03:34,280
Hendrix take the fair call.

45
00:03:34,319 --> 00:03:35,599
Speaker 2: Whoa, whoa, whoa?

46
00:03:35,639 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 3: What's this?

47
00:03:36,439 --> 00:03:39,439
Speaker 2: The Steve Granger method for captivating beautiful women?

48
00:03:39,919 --> 00:03:42,879
Speaker 3: Oh? What you do? Steedee boy, knock them cold to

49
00:03:42,919 --> 00:03:45,240
make sure they fall for you, go pet of your

50
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,800
wise cracks of television. She fainted? Yeah, how one good

51
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,520
look at your holy port snow down. You'd faint two

52
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,719
if your dead husband had been writing you letters and

53
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,680
calling you on the phone. Her dead husband. Whoa, that's

54
00:03:56,719 --> 00:03:58,520
a little twist was coming out of it.

55
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:01,199
Speaker 2: What happened?

56
00:04:01,439 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: You?

57
00:04:01,759 --> 00:04:08,159
Speaker 3: Just plain it here? Let me help you up. Well,

58
00:04:08,159 --> 00:04:10,400
this is a friend of mine, Karl Hendrick. This is

59
00:04:10,479 --> 00:04:13,680
Martha Kingle. How are you doing? Missus Kenny? And maybe

60
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,759
I better go home and have a wretch like me

61
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:16,399
to call the doctor.

62
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:23,639
Speaker 5: I'm Can you remember a man named Claus Kendy?

63
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 3: The name sounds vaguely familiar, Tore Stevie, I remember this story.

64
00:04:29,199 --> 00:04:32,920
He was John, Yes, mister Penwick, and I'm miss weird.

65
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,319
Of of course he thought overboard off his boat. You

66
00:04:35,399 --> 00:04:37,160
try to help him. The police had you in custody

67
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,879
for several days, that is correct, finally agreed that it

68
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,279
was an action. Let you go, and now your dead

69
00:04:43,399 --> 00:04:47,079
husband is riding It was telephony. What's it all about?

70
00:04:47,439 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 4: I married Claude two years ago.

71
00:04:49,519 --> 00:04:51,519
Speaker 2: We were very happy.

72
00:04:52,079 --> 00:04:54,519
Speaker 3: An obstacle. What do you mean by obstacle.

73
00:04:55,199 --> 00:04:57,439
Speaker 4: Some Clark's prelatives didn't like me at all.

74
00:04:58,519 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 3: Claude and I love boating.

75
00:05:00,199 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 2: We spent most of our time.

76
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 3: A boat to peak after just how did your husband die?

77
00:05:07,439 --> 00:05:09,199
It was about three months ago.

78
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,399
Speaker 2: We were blow in the cabin. The storm was coming

79
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,800
up and SA was springing him.

80
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:24,639
Speaker 3: Worry, it's quite a blow coming up. I think I'll

81
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:25,879
go top side to check the line.

82
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 4: You've been on deck twice, surely you must be taken

83
00:05:29,759 --> 00:05:30,639
care of everything.

84
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 3: I just want to make sure that you act like

86
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,920
I wonder what that was? Something about the house.

Speaker 4: I never saw Clark again, mister Granger.

106
00:07:05,639 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 3: I got in touch with the coast guard on the

00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:07,879
boat radio.

108
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,279

now then now you hang on to this boat, right,

170
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:31,799
Say how do I get you back here?

171
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 3: Papa?

172
00:10:32,399 --> 00:10:35,039
Speaker 2: They got a kind of electric horn on the sea

173
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,480
fairy's deck. When you want to be picked up, just

174
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,440
sounded I'll come out and picked up.

175
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:40,159
Speaker 3: Thanks Pop?

176
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 2: Right, how I intend to see your barn?

177
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 5: Oh?

178
00:10:45,759 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 3: Not too long?

179
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:54,639
Speaker 2: Well, you just sound that horn, I told charactery.

180
00:10:54,759 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 3: See I'm thinking about that horn and stuff. Somebody's been

181
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,720
shooting off their mounds around here. Huh. Now let's goublo

182
00:11:00,759 --> 00:11:13,000
on the ground. Ye pretty musty Domino, send me a

183
00:11:13,039 --> 00:11:20,039
long cow Yes, certainly, oh nicely, a raised little crab. Say,

184
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:24,200
look at the navigation they shipped the show radio telephone one, Steve,

185
00:11:24,399 --> 00:11:31,639
man that bunk over there. Somebody has been aboard this

186
00:11:31,759 --> 00:11:38,240
boat very recently too, God and I got curious when

187
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,240
we went over to seafare from stem to stern, but

188
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:41,960
no only got his stove was warm, so it was

189
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,360
the coffee pot. It was piped tobacco on the ash tray.

190
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:45,879
But that was all.

191
00:11:47,399 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 2: Well, Steve, Yeah, that's that.

192
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,799
Speaker 3: Nobody aboard unless they're cleaning the bottom of the hull

193
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,559
they got from that cow. Find that boat on, gadget,

194
00:11:55,759 --> 00:11:57,399
get a quick blast. We'll get back to the shore.

195
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:13,679
Right you find it? How'll that good? What are you

196
00:12:13,759 --> 00:12:16,600
doing down below, Steeve? I just opened a couple of

197
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,639
portholes and ventilations. Was here last at them? All closed

198
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:27,600
down quick? Cally, you were right, Cow. I cawled over

199
00:12:27,639 --> 00:12:29,559
to call Hendricks, looking around and trying to discover the

200
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,159
sauce of the mysterious shot. I saw no one. Those

201
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,440
men lay on his side, curled up like an unmatual kitten.

202
00:12:34,759 --> 00:12:36,879
There was no wound. There was a bullet hole for

203
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:43,200
the brim of his hat. Col cols come out of it. Oh, sorry, Steeve,

204
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:44,960
I didn't need to pack out. So when he pointed

205
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,200
in my head with a bullet, I do the same act. Okay. Otherwise, yeah,

206
00:12:48,399 --> 00:12:54,039
he comes to pop. I was here the shot. You know,

207
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,600
that's where it came from. No, it sounds traveling second

208
00:12:56,639 --> 00:12:58,960
way on the water. Imagine it came from the shore.

209
00:12:59,159 --> 00:13:03,440
Do wet Hey, look, man, don't even send a boat

210
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,519
that doesn't pop in order. I'll probably a relief man. Yeah,

211
00:13:06,639 --> 00:13:11,720
maybe your fellows want to go at sure, yeah, by

212
00:13:11,799 --> 00:13:16,919
my bird, then right with furs cowny ah, hang on

213
00:13:17,039 --> 00:13:21,399
what you getting see right? That all said?

214
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 7: Bok, okay, here we go.

215
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,919
Speaker 3: Don't mind if I asked you questions? Or right ahead?

216
00:13:31,159 --> 00:13:32,480
What's the old timer brought.

217
00:13:32,399 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 7: Us out here?

218
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 2: Do you mean pop?

219
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,279
Speaker 7: He gave me just five dollars to come out here

220
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,240
and get shut He got it was worth it not

221
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:39,200
to come back out here.

222
00:13:41,879 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 3: I asked the new boatman if they heard of me shooting.

223
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,519
It's got a magative shake of the head at the doc.

224
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:48,039
We asked to Pop, but no one seemed to know

225
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,159
where has gone from there? We aliveal it back to Manhattan,

226
00:13:51,639 --> 00:13:53,240
got out to finish off the story, and I headed

227
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,159
back to my office. When I reached the door and

228
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,559
stopped with a proctor tween of glass. I couldn't make

229
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,240
how a figure bend over its cold be going through

230
00:14:01,279 --> 00:14:08,559
my desk, got out my gun. It's a great I

231
00:14:10,159 --> 00:14:14,039
thought you were going home to rest, Missus Kendall. I tried.

232
00:14:14,519 --> 00:14:15,519
I became terrified.

233
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 4: I thought the place would mean I couldn't stand it anymore.

234
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 3: Oh, you came down to my office. You make yourself

235
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:22,320
at home?

236
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 2: The door was a lock.

237
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 3: What's wrong? Why are you looking like that? Yes, Missus Kendall,

238
00:14:33,679 --> 00:14:35,320
how long has it's being come to? You been aboard

239
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,799
the Sweet not the police made the investigation. What do

240
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,399
you ask you've made anybody aboard your boat? Of course

241
00:14:40,559 --> 00:14:42,279
I should have Hendricks, and I would have to. The

242
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,720
Adam subs were a border seat fair. It's not a

243
00:14:44,799 --> 00:14:47,879
warm stove, but the warm copy flat. Also some tobacco

244
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,720
and one of the ash trays. Anything to say, No.

245
00:14:51,919 --> 00:14:54,679
Speaker 4: I know nothing of this. I would go aboard the

246
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,080
seat fair without permission.

247
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 3: But the laws?

248
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:03,799
Speaker 4: Did you think the trust? The sister Anne in New York?

249
00:15:04,279 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 7: That's I heard Amazon Canada.

250
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 3: Called the Mexico the cool slogan all round the commercial

251
00:15:10,759 --> 00:15:12,240
fishing for you, it's.

252
00:15:12,159 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 6: Called the Pandle company.

253
00:15:15,639 --> 00:15:16,759
Speaker 3: Ken, Why don't back home?

254
00:15:16,919 --> 00:15:18,159
Speaker 4: I can't, mister stranger.

255
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:24,519
Speaker 3: Closet of the telephone, the rest telephona hotel near buying

256
00:15:24,519 --> 00:15:28,159
it to your room. By the way, Missus Kendall, as

257
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,360
an old boatman down at the island got they call

258
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:34,559
him Pop? What about? What reason would he have for

259
00:15:34,679 --> 00:15:41,840
saying the seafar was fonted? What do you know about that? Nothing?

260
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:50,000
Need to bring absolutely nothing. He stood there straight and dignified,

261
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,639
and a voice never gave a quiver. But I noticed

262
00:15:52,679 --> 00:15:54,799
to look at dismay in her eyes when I mentioned Pops.

263
00:15:55,759 --> 00:15:59,519
That's which went as quickly as it sings at the moment,

264
00:15:59,559 --> 00:16:09,039
I'll bring you the climax of the table I conducted

265
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,360
Mancia Kendalls whenever my hotel and fixed to a room.

266
00:16:11,879 --> 00:16:13,879
The letters and telephone calls for the dead husband were

267
00:16:13,919 --> 00:16:15,360
bothering us so much. I think it she ought to

268
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,679
be safe from him for a while. But look in

269
00:16:17,759 --> 00:16:19,559
her eyes at the reference to Pop, who taken the

270
00:16:19,639 --> 00:16:21,559
call on knee out of the Kendle's yacht sent me

271
00:16:21,679 --> 00:16:24,200
in search of the old boatman. I was told he

272
00:16:24,279 --> 00:16:26,399
might be found on a this so called across anchor.

273
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,480
This was quite a hangout that evidently was not frequented

274
00:16:30,519 --> 00:16:33,000
by the upper classes. I had an owner which reminded

275
00:16:33,039 --> 00:16:35,200
me of bruise water, which was bad, and he got

276
00:16:35,279 --> 00:16:37,600
used to it. The old timer was seated at a

277
00:16:37,679 --> 00:16:41,200
back table. There was another man with it, a sailor

278
00:16:41,919 --> 00:16:46,000
complete with dungarees and of deer. When he left, I

279
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:51,960
moved over. I have pot where you weren't He took

280
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:53,360
me out of the sea fairy. A couple of outs

281
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,799
bags might want you to do it again.

282
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 2: Now it's my relief man.

283
00:16:59,279 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 3: Relief man doesn't know anything about a shot that was

284
00:17:01,679 --> 00:17:03,279
fired of us? Would you?

285
00:17:03,639 --> 00:17:05,839
Speaker 2: I ain't got nothing more to say about the seat pair,

286
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:07,799
and they you don't know nothing.

287
00:17:07,559 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 3: About no shooting, even over a drink.

288
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 2: Even over the whole Atlantic Ocean.

289
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,559
Speaker 3: Clark Kendell was drowned off to see Pharaoh all the time.

290
00:17:15,599 --> 00:17:18,079
Then I'd like to ask some questions.

291
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, those who say that missus Kendall can answer a

292
00:17:21,559 --> 00:17:25,720
lot of questions if she wants to ask her, ask

293
00:17:25,799 --> 00:17:28,960
her what like did she hit Kendle over the head

294
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,039
with a boat hook instead of fishing him out of

295
00:17:31,079 --> 00:17:31,400
the water.

296
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:33,599
Speaker 3: You said they didn't get along.

297
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 2: Here are those who say he married him for his money?

298
00:17:37,279 --> 00:17:41,559
Speaker 3: Who is those who say Bob I could mention your

299
00:17:41,599 --> 00:17:45,599
remarks to the police. Then what you are placeman?

300
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:50,079
Speaker 2: Nope, cat, Hey, Charlie, come here a minute.

301
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 3: Oh you are having a drink on me.

302
00:17:53,039 --> 00:18:00,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm having one on you right now. What your pop?

303
00:18:00,839 --> 00:18:04,160
It's fairly here. You've been short of trumpling me, he says,

304
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,440
you might tell the police. I was talking about the

305
00:18:06,559 --> 00:18:07,000
chief here.

306
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:12,759
Speaker 3: Get up, mister, why never mind? Why get up and

307
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:17,240
get out. Okay, I'll go along with you and make

308
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,559
sure you don't have to guide me. Bartender, I can

309
00:18:20,599 --> 00:18:25,000
find my way to the dog. Yeah, I know you can.

310
00:18:26,279 --> 00:18:32,000
I don't find your way back in here again. I

311
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,160
might have argued with that bartender, but he was out

312
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,759
of my weight class. He took the scales at about

313
00:18:36,799 --> 00:18:39,000
two hundred and ten. I went back to my office

314
00:18:39,039 --> 00:18:41,599
and put in a long distance call. As I waited

315
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,519
for the connection, I made a quick call to cal

316
00:18:43,599 --> 00:18:47,920
Hendricks gallas Is Granger. Oh yeah, Dade, want you know

317
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,160
the handed lady in the honored boat. I want you

318
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,720
to do me a favorite cow park Kendall was buried

319
00:18:52,799 --> 00:18:56,319
in Long Tier Cemetery. Check for me, save this is

320
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,920
actually interred with it? Why I think he was never buried?

321
00:18:59,079 --> 00:18:59,519
Speaker 5: Just check.

322
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,039
Speaker 3: I'll take it from there. But when you've done it,

323
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:06,880
to come around here and pick me up. I hung

324
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:08,920
up and waited for reply to my long distance seventh.

325
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:11,359
When it came through, I knew a lot more, but

326
00:19:11,559 --> 00:19:15,319
still not enough. I sat thinking until cal Hendrix showed up,

327
00:19:15,759 --> 00:19:17,160
and then we beat it around the corner to the

328
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,880
hotel where Marsha Kendall was registered. Took me a little

329
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:21,759
longer than I think. See what you find. Not cal

330
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,440
card is jury listed. Crop Kendle's death is accidental. Marsha

331
00:19:25,519 --> 00:19:28,119
Kendall was exonerated of any suspicion. I know that he

332
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:32,400
was in lawn s. Was he definitely identified as Clock Kendle.

333
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:34,200
When a cop spends a little time on the water,

334
00:19:34,279 --> 00:19:37,400
they change appearance. His dentis identified him definitely. He'd had

335
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:41,440
some special bridge work done and it really fixes me.

336
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:43,720
I don't tell me you believe the cop Kendle is

337
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:47,000
still alive right now I'm believing nothing. He's a room

338
00:19:47,519 --> 00:19:51,480
five o four little. She hasn't taken a powder.

339
00:19:55,279 --> 00:19:56,160
Speaker 4: Happened so frightened?

340
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 3: Come in please, thanks, missus Kendall. I don't know what

341
00:19:59,559 --> 00:20:02,319
you're scared. Nobody't know what you're staying at this hotel

342
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,200
out side of mister Hendrix's me unless you told.

343
00:20:05,079 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 4: Someone else, Why should I tell anyone else?

344
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 3: I'm very brunk with you, lady. Is it or is

345
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:11,839
it not true that you could have pushed your husband

346
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:13,720
overboard that night and when he tried to climb back

347
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,079
about a seat Berry hit him over the head with

348
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:17,079
a boat him. How can you say such things?

349
00:20:17,519 --> 00:20:19,400
Speaker 4: Why would I employ you to find out who's been

350
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,680
making the telephone call, who's writing levels?

351
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 3: That's why I'm here, missus Kendall. I want to look

352
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:25,480
at those letters you mentioned.

353
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:27,559
Speaker 4: Well, I have him ride here.

354
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,640
Speaker 3: I take it easy, grangeus. She's in no condition to

355
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,519
stand too much of this time. I'm a no condition

356
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:33,480
to stand this kind of Malarchey here.

357
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:34,039
Speaker 4: Mister Grainger.

358
00:20:34,279 --> 00:20:35,440
Speaker 2: These are the letters I received.

359
00:20:35,759 --> 00:20:39,079
Speaker 4: Had any number of people with identified them as Clark's handwriting.

360
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:46,680
Speaker 3: You can prove the actually wrote things I can't, Missus Kendall.

361
00:20:46,759 --> 00:20:49,559
It's impossible for a man buried in a cemetery to

362
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:50,279
write letters.

363
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 4: That's what's so fantastic, mister Granger. That's why I came.

364
00:20:54,079 --> 00:20:57,079
Speaker 3: Do you why you got to believe me? I did

365
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,480
not kill my husband. Another thing, Missus Kendall, you said

366
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:00,799
these letters were at your apartment.

367
00:21:01,079 --> 00:21:03,079
Speaker 4: I picked him up when I went home before I

368
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:04,200
registered at the hotel.

369
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:12,160
Speaker 3: Mister Granger, you're thinking horrible thing? Oh easy? See? Shall

370
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,160
I answer Missus Kendall? I think she'd better do that.

371
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:22,319
Cow Hello, Marsha, that's my husband called the receiver away

372
00:21:22,319 --> 00:21:23,240
from year SoCon with them.

373
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 6: I want you to meet me tonight or the Seafair

374
00:21:27,759 --> 00:21:31,440
at ten o'clark, and if you're not there, I'll come

375
00:21:31,519 --> 00:21:31,920
after you.

376
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:38,519
Speaker 3: What's your husband? Are you sure, mister Grange? What shall

377
00:21:38,519 --> 00:21:39,960
I don't want to be about to Seafair at ten

378
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,079
o'clock like he told you, because cal Hendricks and I

379
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,640
will be there too, and we'll prove whether your husband

380
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:52,680
is really dead or not. Cal Hendrick stayed with Marsha

381
00:21:52,759 --> 00:21:54,640
Kendall to make sure that she would be aboard the

382
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,319
yacht Seafair at ten that night. A few eyes in

383
00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,920
my hands, I ran an errand one which you took

384
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,759
back out to the Island Yacht Club and the old gent.

385
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:03,559
We knew his pop.

386
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:04,920
Speaker 2: You back again?

387
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,119
Speaker 3: What do you want now from you? I want nothing

388
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:08,839
but the truth.

389
00:22:09,039 --> 00:22:10,119
Speaker 2: I ain't talking to it.

390
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:16,400
Speaker 3: But you are old timer. And right now. This was

391
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,599
ten o'clock Marsha Kendall had come aboard the seafair by herself,

392
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,519
Cal Hendricks, and I had wrote out from an inconspicuous spot,

393
00:22:22,759 --> 00:22:24,640
who huddled in the fard cabin waiting for a dead

394
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:29,079
husband to come alive? Grainger, did you hear that? Yeah?

395
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,519
Small boats Tina along the side, ain't got to man.

396
00:22:32,039 --> 00:22:44,920
It must be well, my dear, And how are you.

397
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:46,519
Speaker 4: Not?

398
00:22:46,759 --> 00:22:47,119
Speaker 5: Cloud?

399
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 4: But Paul?

400
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 3: That's right? And Paul, but you were.

401
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,640
Speaker 4: Supposed to be down in Mexico fishing off the coast.

402
00:22:52,559 --> 00:22:55,400
It was you, you who sent those letters and made

403
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:59,400
those calls. You copy God's handwriting, you imitated his voice.

404
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,319
Speaker 3: This girl, my dear. I also trailed you to the

405
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:03,720
hotel where you were hiding.

406
00:23:03,839 --> 00:23:05,839
Speaker 4: But why what have I ever done to you?

407
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:06,640
Speaker 2: What do you want?

408
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,319
Speaker 3: I wanted you on board this boat. We're going to

409
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,440
sail out of this harbor together.

410
00:23:12,839 --> 00:23:15,359
Speaker 2: You're insane, I don't think so. You were around the

411
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,400
night Clark was drowned. You must have been hiding on deck.

412
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,720
Speaker 4: You pushed him over the side, did I?

413
00:23:21,079 --> 00:23:21,680
Speaker 3: And would you?

414
00:23:21,839 --> 00:23:24,079
Speaker 4: I so huddled in a small boat that night. I

415
00:23:24,319 --> 00:23:26,839
had dismissed it as imagination.

416
00:23:26,519 --> 00:23:27,079
Speaker 2: Very shrewd.

417
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:28,200
Speaker 3: Dear sister in law?

418
00:23:28,279 --> 00:23:29,119
Speaker 4: Why did you do it?

419
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:30,880
Speaker 3: I hated him?

420
00:23:31,519 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 2: And you're going to notify the police.

421
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 3: On the ship to shore radio. It's disable dying Start me?

422
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,200
Oh no, first, I was gonna take you with me.

423
00:23:42,319 --> 00:23:44,720
I still am, but I don't think you'll complete the

424
00:23:45,039 --> 00:23:45,640
entire time.

425
00:23:45,799 --> 00:23:46,720
Speaker 2: You're hurting.

426
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 3: I'm going in there and get that character. Oy. Hell,

427
00:23:50,559 --> 00:23:52,839
you're always sting your breath. My sweet, there's no one

428
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,960
in the hell that's where you're around. Kendall, What the detective?

429
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,640
Get away from a Kendle and give up my shield?

430
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,400
Oh no, Granger, you won't shoot so long as I

431
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:02,200
hold her in front of me.

432
00:24:02,279 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 2: Be careful, Mister Grangery's out of his mind.

433
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,359
Speaker 3: Why am am? I I'll show you all of you

434
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:14,319
got a gun. Well, friends, that's the story. I'll be

435
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,119
back to wrap up the case in just a minute.

436
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,480
All Kendall started backing towards the hatch, but exposed one

437
00:24:26,519 --> 00:24:28,400
shoulder just enough for me to punch it. That made

438
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:29,960
it easy for call on me to overpower him and

439
00:24:30,039 --> 00:24:32,680
deliver him to police headquarters. A whole story came out

440
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:33,400
a few days later.

441
00:24:33,839 --> 00:24:35,799
Speaker 4: I didn't know that Paul was up here. He was

442
00:24:35,799 --> 00:24:37,160
supposed to be down in Vera, Cruz.

443
00:24:37,319 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 3: They had a run of bad luck. Came up here

444
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:40,599
and tried to get money from your husband. How'd you

445
00:24:40,599 --> 00:24:42,640
find out about that steel telephone? The officers of his

446
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,200
company in Vera Cruz. They couldn't produce Paul Kendall on

447
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,000
the phone. And I remember the man i'd seen at

448
00:24:47,039 --> 00:24:48,440
the cross anchors talking to Pop.

449
00:24:48,599 --> 00:24:49,079
Speaker 4: It was Paul.

450
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, what was he doing with Pop? Pop confessed that

451
00:24:52,599 --> 00:24:55,000
he'd been around the night of the killing. He saw

452
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,079
your brother in law push your husband off the boat.

453
00:24:57,319 --> 00:24:59,799
I didn't see anything all. Kendall promised him a job

454
00:24:59,839 --> 00:25:02,680
in the Mexico if you'd help him out. It was

455
00:25:02,759 --> 00:25:05,000
also Pop tried to scare count on me too by

456
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,119
firing at us when we were brought the seafair. Your

457
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:09,920
brother in law will probably go to an institution for

458
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:15,960
the criminally in saying just crossed out again. I got

459
00:25:16,079 --> 00:25:18,519
a good take care of me.

460
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:19,640
Speaker 2: Hey, where are you going?

461
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,359
Speaker 3: Oh my boy? This is one time where you are

462
00:25:23,519 --> 00:25:29,920
left holding the baby. Steve Grainger, again, you've just heard

463
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,599
one of the most interesting cases in my files. I'll

464
00:25:32,599 --> 00:25:35,400
have another one for you, so be around next time.

465
00:25:42,759 --> 00:25:48,079
Speaker 1: Welcome back. This one had me puzzled throughout and I

466
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,319
thought that was a great hawk, just that first scene.

467
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,559
Nothing quite like that to set up the fact that

468
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,799
you're going in for a really good mystery. Of course,

469
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:03,279
are criminals. Overall play of trying to commit blackmail as

470
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:08,480
this lady's actually did husband was a bit nuts, but

471
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:10,559
be that as it may, it was still a really

472
00:26:10,759 --> 00:26:11,559
fun episode.

473
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:12,319
Speaker 2: All right.

474
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 1: Well, as I mentioned at the start of the episode,

475
00:26:15,519 --> 00:26:19,720
I am pod fast in Orlando at the time that

476
00:26:19,839 --> 00:26:24,480
I'm recording this, had a good flight in and as

477
00:26:24,519 --> 00:26:29,960
i'm recording this, I'm doing a short presentation tomorrow, which

478
00:26:30,039 --> 00:26:33,200
will have been about a week and a half ago

479
00:26:33,559 --> 00:26:38,200
for you. But Orlando in January has always been a

480
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,720
nice time to visit, so hoping to have a productive

481
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,200
and useful conference.

482
00:26:45,759 --> 00:26:46,119
Speaker 3: All right.

483
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 1: Well, now it's time to think our Patreon supporter of

tomorrow for the big story where.

494
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:36,240
Speaker 3: All the shoveling, it doesn't any idea who she is,

495
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,599
no identifying monks, labels, torn off the.

496
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:46,920
Speaker 5: Clothes safe and calling it murder. Say doctor, can you

497
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:48,839
add anything? Can you give me anything more on the

498
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:50,400
cause of death beyond the beating that is?

499
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:53,559
