Speaker 1: Now for our weekly doctor's appointment. Let's knock on his
Speaker 1: library door and see if.
Speaker 2: There's no point in doing that, Missus Cectra, I'm right
Speaker 2: behind you.
Speaker 1: Hello, doctor Watson. They'll tell me you've been stalking me.
Speaker 3: Oh my boy.
Speaker 2: I was on the patio and I heard your footsteps,
Speaker 2: so I thought that i'd i'd come in and fetch you.
Speaker 2: Let's go back and sit out there, shall way. It's
Speaker 2: it's a beautiful evening.
Speaker 3: That's fine with me. Doctor. Ah, here we are.
Speaker 2: I'll settle yourself down in a chair and light a
Speaker 2: cigarette if you have one. I'll get on with my story.
Speaker 1: Well, last week you told us a concern and adventure
Speaker 1: that you and Sherlock Holmes had in Flanders during the
Speaker 1: First World War.
Speaker 2: That's right, Missus Cetry did.
Speaker 1: I thought that you and the great man had retired
Speaker 1: at that period we had my.
Speaker 2: Boy, but it was only that show. As soon as
Speaker 2: the war broke out, we both offered our services in
Speaker 2: any capacity that might help our country.
Speaker 3: Of course, and hot it tonight's story began.
Speaker 4: Doctor.
Speaker 2: It was in the winter of that first year. Things
Speaker 2: weren't going very well for the Allies. The Germans were
Speaker 2: advancing on Paris, and the picture was looking very black.
Speaker 2: It was just twenty four hours before the famous Battle
Speaker 2: of the Man began, the battle that changed the early
Speaker 2: course of the war. When Holmes told me that we
Speaker 2: had to go up to the front lines on a
Speaker 2: secret mission, we'd been in Paris for several weeks. The
Speaker 2: Homes just solved the case of the missing a deacon.
Speaker 2: I was anxious to get back to England and my
Speaker 2: work in the war hospitals. But of course this new
Speaker 2: summons was in the nature of a command, and so
Speaker 2: late on a rainy September afternoon, Holmes and I, with
Speaker 2: the boom of gunfire and ar ears, found ourselves in
Speaker 2: the front seat of a staff car, flushing and jolting
Speaker 2: its way towards the battle field.
Speaker 3: I drive in too fast to you yetmen, as I
Speaker 3: do not at all.
Speaker 2: I know you're doing a splendid job. My man look
Speaker 2: out considering the state of the road. Like you said, er, hello,
Speaker 2: the gunfire is getting nearer.
Speaker 3: Homes, Yes, o'thor I imagine we haven't much further to go,
Speaker 3: have his sergeant, No, sou We're nearly there.
Speaker 2: Did you notice that two civilians and the back seat
Speaker 2: Homes yes, answer woman.
Speaker 3: And a distinguished looking man several years a senior. Who
Speaker 3: they are, I'll tell you he's a Shakespearean actor of
Speaker 3: some note, and we never achieved the fame to which
Speaker 3: he thinks he's entitled. I shouldn't get all surprised if
Speaker 3: he feels that he's been slighted in not receiving a knighthood, Well.
Speaker 2: That's amazing. How can you possibly reduce all that from
Speaker 2: just looking at the man as.
Speaker 3: We got into the car Elementary, My dear fellow, I
Speaker 3: didn't deduce it. We saw him twice last year in
Speaker 3: the London theater. If you wrote, then his name is
Speaker 3: Mitchell Morris asked for his biography. He's a friend of
Speaker 3: my brother Mycroft's. He told me about him.
Speaker 2: What do you suppose he is doing up here near
Speaker 2: the front line?
Speaker 3: His brother is General Sirs Stanley Morris, who was in
Speaker 3: command of this particular front, and it would seem reasonable
Speaker 3: to presume that it is brother has come up here
Speaker 3: to give a performance for the front line troops. I
Speaker 3: suppose this hut is as far as we can drive.
Speaker 3: Sergeant on fright, So, sir, we're four miles from the
Speaker 3: front line. Now you have to clear your papers.
Speaker 4: Here.
Speaker 3: See that ruin arm house there.
Speaker 2: Sir, you sergeant, is that the general's headquarter? Yes, sir,
Speaker 2: Come on Watson, old lord, it's pelting with rain.
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's pike a dash for it.
Speaker 5: Who goes there?
Speaker 3: Friend, give the passwords? Send Crispin past friends and show
Speaker 3: your papers?
Speaker 2: How did you know the past word? At Holmes?
Speaker 3: I was given a per popular penisal. Check surelock Holmes
Speaker 3: and doctor Watson, isn't it? Here's Captain and Captain Maxwell
Speaker 3: for General Morris's age. Can't he asked? People's caught you
Speaker 3: up to his headquarters? And by the way, when Nason
Speaker 3: Morris and his wife in the car with you? Yes,
Speaker 3: there just behind us, well splendid. I'm afraid I'll have
Speaker 3: to ask to see your papers.
Speaker 2: Yes, here's here's my permit.
Speaker 3: Captain Maxwell, thanel. I know you're both, of course, but if
Speaker 3: we can't afford to take any chances when this close
Speaker 3: to the enemy lines, let's see. Oh yeah, that's fine, doctor,
Speaker 3: everything's in order, all yours please, mister Hermes, here you are, thanks?
Speaker 3: Who goes there? There's the rescue paw? Oh good, this
Speaker 3: is quite an order, mister Hermes. Oh there you are
Speaker 3: Captain Maxwell. Hello, Missus Murritt.
Speaker 5: How are you getting next?
Speaker 3: Well, well, you've both met mister Shellock Holmes and doctor Watson.
Speaker 3: I suppose her No, we haven't, even though we drove
Speaker 3: up in the same car Natural Reserve of us British
Speaker 3: as I suppose. How are you, miss Hermes? How do
Speaker 3: you do some o?
Speaker 2: Your brother Micraft? Very well? How are you doctor? I'm
Speaker 2: there to Meetchell to Morris. I saw you a couple
Speaker 2: of times the third last year Georgio performances.
Speaker 3: Thank you sir, But then you must know my wife,
Speaker 3: my leading lady.
Speaker 2: How do you do? Gentlemen?
Speaker 3: Can I see your papers? Mister Morris? Just a matter
Speaker 3: of reform?
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, of course, Missus Morris, I presume you and
Speaker 2: your husband are going to give a performance tonight for
Speaker 2: the men going up the front line.
Speaker 5: Yes, doctor, we're very flattered. They've asked us to do
Speaker 5: some Shakespearean things, although I should have thought something a
Speaker 5: little lighter would have been more appropriate.
Speaker 3: The General his maintenance brother know anything differency.
Speaker 2: Where my dear show Captain Maxwell your papers.
Speaker 3: Then we can all go along and see my brother
Speaker 3: Stanley very well, Maitland. Mister Morris Eyes will look forward
Speaker 3: to hearing your reading of shakespeare sink crispian speech from
Speaker 3: Henry the Fifth tonight Press my soul Holmes, how did
Speaker 3: you know I was planning to do it?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 3: The setting is so perfect, in the time, so appropriate.
Speaker 3: I can't conceive an English actor who could resist the temptation.
Speaker 3: I noticed that your brother appreciated the fact in naming
Speaker 3: today's password. Yes, it's amazingly appropriate. You know it's almost
Speaker 3: five hundred years ago to the day that the Battle
Speaker 3: of Agencourt took place.
Speaker 2: Well, let's hope that the result of the forthcoming battle
Speaker 2: will be equally successful.
Speaker 3: For yes, indeed, Oh, by the way, Homes. This will
Speaker 3: probably seem rather silly to you, but I'm an invetered
Speaker 3: autograph collector and I have my book Shore with me.
Speaker 3: I wonder if you'd minds sign us ply get to
Speaker 3: mister Morrows coime in pin Willy Watson. You'll find yourself
Speaker 3: among quite distinguished company in that book, sir, so I
Speaker 3: see Andelina, Patty Brown, Princip Norwick, no Hil Marshall van Toknitz. Oh, yes,
Speaker 3: he was one of my I admired is when I
Speaker 3: played in Munich before the war. I suppose now that
Speaker 3: our countries are fighting, I should tear that page out.
Speaker 3: You know, I cannot help but feel that art and
Speaker 3: the appreciation of art are independent of national hatred. Crito, sir,
Speaker 3: I myself still have a medal presented to me by
Speaker 3: the University of Leipzig for some trifling services. Nay one,
Speaker 3: mister Morris. Oh, thank you very much for the homes,
Speaker 3: a notable addition to my collection.
Speaker 2: I should be reglad to sign your book poem tomorrows
Speaker 2: if you'd like mature. That's very kind of a doctor.
Speaker 2: Captain Maxwell.
Speaker 3: If our permits not all in order, don't you think
Speaker 3: we should be moving along? It's just what I was
Speaker 3: going to suggest myself. I'll take you all straight to
Speaker 3: General Morris's headquarters. General Morris, Sir, may, I introduced mister
Speaker 3: Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. How do you do so wrong?
Speaker 3: How do you do know a lot about?
Speaker 4: You?
Speaker 3: Were long way from Baker Street, isn't it Yesizza? Where
Speaker 3: is that brother of mine?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 3: There you are, Maitland, Cynthia. How nice to see your boat.
Speaker 3: So it's good to see you against Hello less Stanley.
Speaker 3: The men will be glad you arrived. They're looking forward
Speaker 3: to your show tonight. We're very flattered that they want
Speaker 3: to hear us do some Shakespeare or rubbish. Old boy
Speaker 3: with you and Cynthia up there on the platform, you
Speaker 3: could read the telephone book and they'd love your father.
Speaker 3: By the way, you will find the stage very primitive,
Speaker 3: just a few trestles in a large tent and a
Speaker 3: curtain made of army blankets, and your dressing rooms will
Speaker 3: be eaten worse.
Speaker 5: Oh, don't worry about our comfort, Stanley. As long as
Speaker 5: we cheer the boys up, that's the important thing.
Speaker 3: Yes, of course. The way, what program do you have
Speaker 3: mapped out for us? Well, I thought we'd have two shows.
Speaker 3: The tent's not large enough to hold everybody at once,
Speaker 3: anybody anyway, we have to keep up with alert all
Speaker 3: the time. I think you can manage two separate shows.
Speaker 2: Of course I can stand it. I may look over
Speaker 2: and I.
Speaker 4: Don't feel it.
Speaker 3: You don't even look at your scoundrels and thank you.
Speaker 2: So you can take a look at the stage and equipment.
Speaker 3: Now, certainly, Captain Maxwell, take them over to the tent
Speaker 3: and show them what the facilities are. Will you right down?
Speaker 3: Will you follow me a yes, of course, see you later.
Speaker 3: All right, I'm glad you're here, homes. I'm so I
Speaker 3: can speak quite freely in front of doctor Watson. Oh, yes,
Speaker 3: with perfect freedom, sir. He's my colleague. And there's no
Speaker 3: darning men himself. Really?
Speaker 2: What Regiment fifth Northomland, whose sir later touched the boxers
Speaker 2: in Afghanistan and wounded in the Battle of Main One?
Speaker 3: Really? And then I'm sure I can speak freely and
Speaker 3: from homes. You know why you're up here so near
Speaker 3: the front line, don't you. I have a very shrewd suspicion, Sir.
Speaker 3: I thought you had. That's why I asked for you
Speaker 3: to be sent here. You asked for me to be
Speaker 3: cent here. General, Yes, I think I understand.
Speaker 2: Oh I did?
Speaker 3: You will doctor in due time. In the meanwhile, gentlemen,
Speaker 3: I'll have an orderly show you to your quarter. Thank you,
Speaker 3: sir and Holmes. Take a look around, will you, and
Speaker 3: keep your ears where comparatively a little distance from the
Speaker 3: German front lines. And yet there's a very puzzling silence
Speaker 3: just now.
Speaker 2: I noticed that half an hour ago, on our way
Speaker 2: up there was there's quite a lot.
Speaker 3: Of shilling exactly. It's unnatural and rather frightening at a
Speaker 3: time like this. You see, we're attacking at dawn. The
Speaker 3: enemy might be trying to infiltrate spies, and the whole
Speaker 3: success of this battle depends on a surprise attack. I
Speaker 3: quite understand, Sir Colin Watson.
Speaker 2: Home the first performance starts in a few minutes. You
Speaker 2: know they're all there waiting. Why are we trappling about
Speaker 2: up and here in the mud in the rain?
Speaker 3: I thought a pipe or two in the open air,
Speaker 3: But clear our brains.
Speaker 2: Yeah, pipe in the open air is one thing, But
Speaker 2: a pipe in the downfall.
Speaker 3: Of rains and another is it raining? Didn't even notice it.
Speaker 3: I was listening to the silence.
Speaker 2: What do you mean?
Speaker 3: Thousands upon thousands of Germans, armed, Germans full of a blind,
Speaker 3: fanatical hatred and desire to kill, are crouched in trenches
Speaker 3: only a mile or two from here. Surrounding us are
Speaker 3: an equal number of English boys, also armed, and for
Speaker 3: the will is not the desire to fight, because they
Speaker 3: know their cause is the cause of freedom and justice.
Speaker 3: All these thousands poised, ready to pounce on each other
Speaker 3: and fight to the death.
Speaker 4: And yet.
Speaker 3: Beyond that patter of rain. There isn't a been a
Speaker 3: sound to break the stillness of a September evening. Strange
Speaker 3: world we live in, old chapter.
Speaker 2: You will be unusual tollical home, Yes, I am on that.
Speaker 3: Let's be a little more practical, charwit. I wonder what
Speaker 3: is wrong with the actors tonight?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 2: Why do you ask? Well?
Speaker 3: A little while ago I noticed missus Morris in a
Speaker 3: great state of excitement, turning towards the farmhouse where the
Speaker 3: General is, and she went back to her own quarters.
Speaker 3: And now she seems to be headed in our direction,
Speaker 3: being wrong, Missus Morris, it's Maitland.
Speaker 2: What's wrong with the madam?
Speaker 3: He disappears appeared? What's happened? We were in the tint.
Speaker 5: Together making up for rapperforms when an orderly came into
Speaker 5: the message. Maitland said it was from his brother, slipped
Speaker 5: on a raincoat and went out, seeing me back in
Speaker 5: a few moments. I waited and waited, and after a
Speaker 5: while I got worried, and I wouldn't to see the
Speaker 5: General myself. He said that he'd said no message, and
Speaker 5: that he hadn't seen any sign of Maitland.
Speaker 2: Good Lord, what can have happened to him?
Speaker 5: I don't know, doctor, but I'm frightened. What shall I do?
Speaker 3: Mister Holmes, You're a brave woman, Missus Morris, brave.
Speaker 5: I don't know, mister Holmes.
Speaker 3: Why Gus, the show must go on. I shall take
Speaker 3: your husband's place at home.
Speaker 2: Something's happened to Mathil Morris. He's in danger.
Speaker 3: I'm not too what's in't true. But a thousand men
Speaker 3: inside that tenter in mortal danger too. Tomorrow morning, many
Speaker 3: of them maybe copses on the fields of Flanders, but
Speaker 3: tonight they've been promised to show you. Think that you
Speaker 3: can do it? Home, Oh I think I can with
Speaker 3: the help of Missus Morris.
Speaker 5: I can't do it, mister.
Speaker 3: Home and Missus Molls, and you will if only to
Speaker 3: uphold that great tradition of the pitter. But the show
Speaker 3: must go on.
Speaker 1: Where the rest of Dr Watson's story in just a
Speaker 1: few seconds time. I'd like to take to tell you
Speaker 1: that if you've got a butcher who has meat, and
Speaker 1: you've got the points to get that meat, don't forget
Speaker 1: to bring home a bottle of Petree California burgundy. Tell
Speaker 1: you why that Petro Burgundy is a rich, red meal
Speaker 1: time wine that's wonderful with any meat or meat dish.
Speaker 3: That's a fact.
Speaker 1: Petro Burgundy can make a banquet out of a hamburger,
Speaker 1: and boy, petfree Burgundy and old fashioned iris stew are
Speaker 1: bosom companions. Just get yourself some petfree Burgundy and share
Speaker 1: it with your family. Petre Burgundy is the best friend
Speaker 1: a good meal ever had. And now back to tonight's
Speaker 1: new Sherlock Holmes adventure. It is just before the Battle
Speaker 1: of the Marne and the First World War, and Sherlock
Speaker 1: Holmes and doctor Watson are at headquarters a few miles
Speaker 1: behind the front line.
Speaker 3: Tranches.
Speaker 1: I am a Shakespearean actor who was to give a
Speaker 1: performance for the troops, has mysteriously disappeared, and the great
Speaker 1: Detective has taken his place at the last minute. As
Speaker 1: we rejoin our story, Sherlock Holmes, alone on the improvised stage,
Speaker 1: is delivering a Shakespearean speech before a spell bound body.
Speaker 3: Happy. This little world, this precious stone, set in a
Speaker 3: silver sea, which serves it in the office of a wall,
Speaker 3: orders a most defensive to a house against the envy
Speaker 3: of less happier lambs, This blessest loot, this earth, this rome,
Speaker 3: this England.
Speaker 2: Holmes that shot.
Speaker 1: Are you all right?
Speaker 3: Yes, o Chap. Fortunately I started to leave the stage
Speaker 3: as the shot was fired. The bullet just missed me.
Speaker 3: I heard its sprinters and wood nearby.
Speaker 2: But who on earth would want to shoot you?
Speaker 3: That's what we've got to find out, And I think
Speaker 3: it more likely that the shot was intended for me.
Speaker 3: He was not intended for me, but for Mickland Morris,
Speaker 3: the man for whom I'm substituto, even sir, who'd want
Speaker 3: to shoot him? Don't ask me so many questions, author,
Speaker 3: Let's see what clues we can find now. The shot
Speaker 3: was fined from outside the tent, from behind me. Yes,
Speaker 3: we're there. Give a hole in the tent.
Speaker 2: There by show vis the footlights without climbing your shadow
Speaker 2: on the back of the tent. Whoever it must have
Speaker 2: a fire at your silhouette.
Speaker 3: The question is where did the bullet embed itself? Look here, Watson,
Speaker 3: We've got a pen knife here. They shouldn't be hard
Speaker 3: to extract this splintered tent pole. A minute. Yeah, here
Speaker 3: we are excellent. H very interesting.
Speaker 2: What's so interesting about him?
Speaker 3: Just a revolver bullet, isn't Watson? It's far from just
Speaker 3: a revolver bullet. This bullet was fired from a German
Speaker 3: Luca pistol, the German pistol.
Speaker 2: There must have been a spy here behind our lines.
Speaker 3: That's a reasonable enough his assumption. Yes, we may be
Speaker 3: sure that no English soldier would carry such a from
Speaker 3: a face inspection. Come on, I once talked to missus Morris,
Speaker 3: Missus Morris, I want you to be very frank with me.
Speaker 2: What a cause?
Speaker 3: Mister Holmes, you know why your husband's missing, don't you?
Speaker 5: No, No, I don't have you found out about my madam?
Speaker 3: Why I keep up this pretense any longer? I know
Speaker 3: that your husband is a spy, or at least a
Speaker 3: great sympathizer with the German cause, the General's brother spy.
Speaker 2: Good luck?
Speaker 5: How dare you say that?
Speaker 3: Because it's true? While an office has been suspicious of
Speaker 3: his sympathies for some time, his own brother knew it.
Speaker 3: That's why I asked to have me sent up here
Speaker 3: to keep an eye on him during his visit.
Speaker 5: It is true. Why should I keep up the pretense
Speaker 5: any longer? You see? Maitland was a disciple of Stuart Houston, Chamberlain,
Speaker 5: who was his stuard.
Speaker 3: Houston Chamberlain, an Englishman who married one of Richard Wagner's
Speaker 3: daughters and became a German citizen and an arch enemy
Speaker 3: of England.
Speaker 5: I'm trying to dissuade Maitland. I implored him to consider
Speaker 5: his British heritage, his brother's name and mind. But Mathon
Speaker 5: was a strange man. His life was one of frustration
Speaker 5: and envy, envy of his babadized bose Yes. When Stanley
Speaker 5: was knighted, it hurt Maitland terribly. He said, it was
Speaker 5: typical if the English would knight a soldier and yet
Speaker 5: leave a great artist like himself unrecognized that in Berlin
Speaker 5: they really understood and rewarded the artist.
Speaker 2: Well, if the thoughts knew that. It's amazingly allowed him
Speaker 2: to come so close to the front lines at a time.
Speaker 5: Like this, which was at the general's request. He wanted
Speaker 5: to plead with my husband to warn him that his
Speaker 5: secret was known. And now Maitland gone over to the
Speaker 5: German line.
Speaker 3: Oh, it's terrible.
Speaker 2: Worse than that, it's disastrous. He can give them information.
Speaker 2: This is strength of our troops here. He knows the password.
Speaker 2: He might even know. The army attacked his time to.
Speaker 3: Start, How did your husband expect to went of the
Speaker 3: German lines in safety, missus, Mrris, he.
Speaker 5: Speaks fluent German, Mister Holmes, I fancy the autographs will
Speaker 5: keeps carrying containing his signature a field Marshal von Totnitz
Speaker 5: with In reality he's passed through the German.
Speaker 3: Line all the general that his brother was gone.
Speaker 5: Of course I haven't been able to He moved up
Speaker 5: to the front line position immediately after the first performance,
Speaker 5: though I had warned him what I thought Matan was
Speaker 5: planning to do. I think he intended to give his
Speaker 5: performance first, then cross the lines immediately afterwards. But something
Speaker 5: must have made him change his mind. Perhaps he suspected
Speaker 5: I'd warned the general. Anyhow, as you know, when I
Speaker 5: got back to our quarters he'd gone.
Speaker 2: Did he leave any note, Madam? Yes he did.
Speaker 3: Here it is thank you all I have done. My dear,
Speaker 3: I understand and forgive if you can. It wouldn't come
Speaker 3: with me, and so I am taking what is left
Speaker 3: of my heart and my hopes where they belong among
Speaker 3: the friends that understand and appreciate me. It is something
Speaker 3: stronger than love and blood and country that makes me
Speaker 3: do this. It is something dearer to me than life itself.
Speaker 3: Here it's mean than life itself.
Speaker 5: Oh, how cold, how goodly it's the shame of this
Speaker 5: will kill for Stanley Litter. Come will you break the
Speaker 5: news to him? I know it's cowardly of me, but
Speaker 5: I just can't tell him myself.
Speaker 3: Missus Morris, I'll tell him, Dr Watson, I will ask
Speaker 3: Captain Maxwell to a scott as to the General's front
Speaker 3: line headquarters. In the meantime, try and keep calm.
Speaker 4: We'll tell him.
Speaker 3: If you were waiting in the dug art, Mister Holmes,
Speaker 3: I'll tell the General that you're here, thank you, and
Speaker 3: be sure to let him know the urgency of the matter. Homes.
Speaker 3: This is a dreadful business, Yes it is, Watson. If
Speaker 3: my plans work out correctly, I think the success of
Speaker 3: tomorrow's battle may not be impeddled. Listen, no, Holmes.
Speaker 2: A strange silence from the German line since we came
Speaker 2: here might be a count for by the fact that
Speaker 2: they knew Maitland was making his getaway, they wouldn't want
Speaker 2: to risk wounding such a valuables far Possibly, what I
Speaker 2: still don't understand is who shot at you with a
Speaker 2: German pistol, and why having.
Speaker 3: Very done so? Fellow, surey, it's oddvious they've come General Morris.
Speaker 2: Now, good devil, this is going to be a dreadful
Speaker 2: shot to him.
Speaker 3: Hello Holmes, Doctor Watson, Deeryl Morris, I'm afraid that I
Speaker 3: bad news for you. Our brother has gone over to
Speaker 3: the German lines. Maitland did go there. I should have
Speaker 3: put him under an armed god as soon as he
Speaker 3: came here, but I thought I could reason with him,
Speaker 3: appeal to his sense of honor, instead of which you
Speaker 3: tried to shoot him there. But fortunately for me you missed.
Speaker 3: You see, I took his place at the first performance, but.
Speaker 2: That shot was fired from a German pistol.
Speaker 3: That was when I first knew the General had fired
Speaker 3: the shot. But I still don't see how you could. Now,
Speaker 3: only a high ranking officer not subject to inspection could
Speaker 3: carry a non regulation firearm. No, no, darmy man, you
Speaker 3: should know that in any case, you observe that the
Speaker 3: General carries a lugerd. It is way straight Heaven's homes are.
Speaker 3: I thought I was firing it make I had no
Speaker 3: idea that that it was you.
Speaker 2: You intended to kill your own brother.
Speaker 3: Sir, Yes, and I'm sorry I failed her. I'd rather
Speaker 3: see my brother dead than alive on a traitor to
Speaker 3: his country. But now he's said me in the German lines.
Speaker 3: Heaven knows what secrets he may be imparting. One thing
Speaker 3: we can beset. A chance of a surprise attack in
Speaker 3: the morning has gone Passabinazer, What do you mean, Douse?
Speaker 3: He took the liberty of altering your brother's credentials quite extensively.
Speaker 3: How I knew of his German sympathe is my craft
Speaker 3: that give me a great deal of information about him,
Speaker 3: And so I took it on myself to decide that
Speaker 3: it was unsafe to allow him so near the enemy
Speaker 3: lines with his own identification on him. Well, what did
Speaker 3: you do? I took the liberty serves chealing his autocrat book,
Speaker 3: the one containing the magical signature of Field Marshal and Toknitz.
Speaker 3: I have it in my pocket now I think we
Speaker 3: shall find within its pages a code concealed in the
Speaker 3: various outographs, giving valuable information to the enemy. Good Lord,
Speaker 3: I also switched to military permits on him. I felt
Speaker 3: that in the event that he did go over to
Speaker 3: the German lines, his work might be less cordial if
Speaker 3: they were under the impression that they'd captured Sherlock Holmes.
Speaker 3: To make that identification doubly sure, I also slipped in
Speaker 3: his pocket a slight souvenir of my own word your homes.
Speaker 2: You mean that medal was presented to you by the
Speaker 2: University of Life.
Speaker 3: Shack, Thank your fellow. I no longer wish to have
Speaker 3: owned a decoration given me by a country of barbarians,
Speaker 3: and it seems a rather neat and effective way of
Speaker 3: returning it to them. So the Germans will think they've
Speaker 3: captured Sharlock Home, yes, sir, and unless I'm much mistaken,
Speaker 3: he'll receive very short stripped of their hand. Yes, I
Speaker 3: hate you. As your answer, sir, I'm sorry. Don't be sorry, Holmes.
Speaker 3: It's better that way now his secret can die with him.
Speaker 3: Excuse me, sir, Yes Maxwell, What is it would it
Speaker 3: be in order for me to return to headquarters? Stauser?
Speaker 3: It's very nearly time for the second performance, and I've
Speaker 3: still been I'm able to trace the word abouts of
Speaker 3: your brother. Well, my brother will not be acting the nighttime, afraid, Holmes.
Speaker 3: I wonder if I might ask you to take his
Speaker 3: place once again, if you want me to General, I
