Speaker 1: I'm now for Edmund O'Brien.
Speaker 2: As yours truly, Johnny Dollar.
Speaker 1: Edmund O'Briens towering in another adventure of America's fabulous freelance
Speaker 1: insurance investigator Johnny Dollar. At insurance Investigation, Johnny Dollar.
Speaker 3: Is only an expert at making out his expense account,
Speaker 3: He's an absolute genius.
Speaker 2: Expense account submitted by special Investigator Johnny Dollar to the
Speaker 2: Great Collidian Life Insurance Company, The following is an accounting
Speaker 2: of my expenditures during the investigation of the circumstances surrounding
Speaker 2: the murder of your policyholder, Loyal B. Martin. Or how
Speaker 2: to take a vacation in Fairfield County expense account adam
Speaker 2: one three dollars and twenty cents smileage from up Connecticut
Speaker 2: to the country, a state of the deceased. I drove
Speaker 2: up a long cement driveway towards a mausoleum tight manor house.
Speaker 2: There were rolling green lawns liberally sprinkled with statuary, and
Speaker 2: the thought occurred to me that if he had spent
Speaker 2: much of his life here, the late mister Martin was
Speaker 2: most fortunate. He feels right at home in a cemetery. Yes,
Speaker 2: my name is Dollar. I'm here to see missus Martin.
Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, missus Martin.
Speaker 5: I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. The widow has
Speaker 5: gone shopping the day after the death of her husband.
Speaker 5: Something attractive in mourning clothes.
Speaker 2: I'm sure. Well, what time is she expected back?
Speaker 5: I have no idea.
Speaker 2: It shouldn't be long. Do you mind if I come
Speaker 2: in and wait?
Speaker 4: You'll forgive my asking, young man, But just what is
Speaker 4: your business here at Loyal Haven?
Speaker 2: I was sent here by an insurance company.
Speaker 6: Oh, why then you come in.
Speaker 2: Here?
Speaker 5: Right in here, I'm missus Tompkins keeping mister Dollar.
Speaker 4: I was with mister Martin for over thirty years.
Speaker 2: He was a wonderful man. The furniture also looks like
Speaker 2: it might have been with mister Martin for over thirty years. Victorian,
Speaker 2: isn't it?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Pure loyal mister Martin, that is was an expert on
Speaker 4: the Victorian period.
Speaker 2: Please thank you, mister Dollar.
Speaker 5: I suppose you'll think it's him delicate in me at
Speaker 5: this time?
Speaker 4: That about Loyals Insurance, his policies.
Speaker 2: Did they Yes, miss Tompkins, they did. One of his
Speaker 2: policies leaves you a nice sizeable amount but before you
Speaker 2: start counting it, maybe you and I had better have
Speaker 2: a little understanding. Yeah, well, I'm not here to represent
Speaker 2: the payoff department. I'm here to investigate the murder. Oh well,
Speaker 2: I see, Yes, Before the company pays off, they want
Speaker 2: to make sure that among the beneficiaries, they don't pay
Speaker 2: off the murder, because they really don't have to do that.
Speaker 2: I didn't realize, and either do a lot of people.
Speaker 2: You know, it's the way quite a few good murders
Speaker 2: are wasted.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I suppose you're right.
Speaker 5: Well, that's what you're here for.
Speaker 4: I suppose you want to talk to the police. The
Speaker 4: tenant Marquet is in the library.
Speaker 2: That's where it happened. Oh, library, Well that might help.
Speaker 2: If I can't find any other answers, I can always
Speaker 2: try looking some up in a book. Which way do
Speaker 2: I go? Oh? The door just across the hall, thank you?
Speaker 2: And waterhole. The only thing missing was old Queen Victoria herself,
Speaker 2: even the musty odor clinging to the green bell that
Speaker 2: seem to have been passed down through the centuries. There
Speaker 2: was a brace of more eaten pheasants on the wall,
Speaker 2: and a bouquet of more eaten flowers on the glass
Speaker 2: on a marble top side table. The library was the same,
Speaker 2: but there were three things that looked out of place.
Speaker 2: He an old suit of armor, b a glass case
Speaker 2: filled with new, well polished sporting rifles and shotguns. And
Speaker 2: see a very gruff looking lieutenant of the police who
Speaker 2: wired me as I came in. And who are you? Oh?
Speaker 7: Here, here's my little breath saverer. Yeah, Johnny Dollar. They
Speaker 7: told me you'd be here. Well, I've told everybody else.
Speaker 7: I better tell you. Don't touch anything. They want to
Speaker 7: re fingerprint the whole room. Okay, okay, what'd your find,
Speaker 7: Lieutenant Nathan? But the cadaver with two bullet holes in
Speaker 7: his back? Haven't got a caliber report from ballistics yet?
Speaker 2: Have you an estimated time of departure?
Speaker 7: And the corner, says Martin Dianed after dinner last night.
Speaker 2: Uh huh, anything to go on?
Speaker 7: Yes, the usual faith, hope and suspicion. Wife too young
Speaker 7: and too pretty for an ugly old buck like Martin
Speaker 7: mister married him for his money. Then there's that housekeeper,
Speaker 7: Sarah Tompkins. Yeah, I met her on the way in,
Speaker 7: and she used to be the old man's intended From
Speaker 7: what I can find, out, probably jealous of the young wife.
Speaker 2: Then there's the brother Mary.
Speaker 7: He showed up a few weeks ago, broken brooding, probably
Speaker 7: in love with the young wife. And then there's Nick Bladdie,
Speaker 7: a private detective wired himself out as Martin's bodyguard.
Speaker 2: Bodyguard eh, no doubt, also in love with the young wife.
Speaker 2: Let be who's your choice?
Speaker 7: Except for the fact that there are only two bullets,
Speaker 7: I think they all did it.
Speaker 2: The nodes through which Lieutenant Mark would talk was a
Speaker 2: long one, and in more ways than one, a horn
Speaker 2: of plenty. For out of that had pought enough motives
Speaker 2: and suspects to furnish a dozen murders. I started through
Speaker 2: this cast of characters and found that all of them
Speaker 2: had been very little to say and didn't want to
Speaker 2: say it. The first I dug up was the bodyguard,
Speaker 2: my brother, investigator Nick Bollatti, as he returned from a
Speaker 2: horseback ride.
Speaker 7: I had to have you on the case, Dolla. The
Speaker 7: police have tied my hands. They told me to stay
Speaker 7: out of it, but to stick around.
Speaker 2: You got any ideas.
Speaker 7: Everybody seems to think it was an inside job, that
Speaker 7: somebody in the household did it.
Speaker 2: I'm not so sure the reason I was around.
Speaker 7: Was because old man Martin made too many dollars and
Speaker 7: too many enemies doing it. But that's only my opinion.
Speaker 7: Why don't you talk to the old boy's younger brother, Marty.
Speaker 2: I found Marty living the life of Riley. He was
Speaker 2: upstairs in his room, cuddled up to a twenty year
Speaker 2: old bottle of brandy, which was still under age to
Speaker 2: be around. The kind of book he was reading.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I'll tell you something, Doller. My brother and I
Speaker 8: I never did get along. You'd find that out anyway.
Speaker 8: Why'd you come back here, Marty? Because Loyal's little bride,
Speaker 8: Joanne sent for me. She was afraid of him and
Speaker 8: she didn't know if he was on to her. Was
Speaker 8: he about that? You'll have to talk to joy Anne.
Speaker 2: Joyanne didn't get home until three o'clock in the afternoon.
Speaker 2: I caught up with her twenty minutes later as she
Speaker 2: came dripping out of the swimming pool. The suit she
Speaker 2: was wearing would have gotten her pinched on the river.
Speaker 6: Er. Oh, that was refreshing.
Speaker 2: It certainly is talked me that tall? Eh? Surely here
Speaker 2: missus Martin joy Anne? I hate for malady. Who are you?
Speaker 2: I'm from the insurance company here to find out whether
Speaker 2: you killed your husband or not. Oh good for you,
Speaker 2: mister Dolla.
Speaker 6: That's what I like.
Speaker 2: Men who get right down to the point. I was
Speaker 2: told you were here. Oh nobody told me about you.
Speaker 2: Come on over and learn.
Speaker 3: I want to stretch out here in the sun.
Speaker 2: Here you man, the flieswater?
Speaker 6: Okay, close here beside me, it gets too warm. Slip
Speaker 6: off his shirt.
Speaker 2: Thank you. Well, I suppose we start talking business. Marty
Speaker 2: tells me you sent for him to come here because
Speaker 2: you were afraid of your husband. I'll come well.
Speaker 6: I knew Marty before I knew Loyal. As a matter
Speaker 6: of fact, he's the one who introduced me to what
Speaker 6: do you call a dead husband?
Speaker 2: You call him unlucky? I guess anyway, for the purposes
Speaker 2: of this conversation, I'll know who you mean if you
Speaker 2: just say husband. But you didn't answer my question. I meant,
Speaker 2: were you afraid of your spouse? And if so, why, Yes,
Speaker 2: I was afraid of him.
Speaker 6: I might as well tell him, mister dollar, I want
Speaker 6: to be frank with you. The only thing Loyal didn't
Speaker 6: have to offer me was love. I seem to be
Speaker 6: a girl who needs just that. Frankly, I tried to
Speaker 6: make up the deficit. Missus Tompkins, the housekeeper, saw to
Speaker 6: it that my husband found out about it. From then
Speaker 6: on it would like living with a madman. So end
Speaker 6: my confession, So beginne with my suspicions. What about this
Speaker 6: housekeeper till I came along, she always thought that Loyal
Speaker 6: would wind up marrying her.
Speaker 2: No, don't get me wrong.
Speaker 6: I realized that I'm still the best jury data round.
Speaker 2: If you kill him, you might make some headway with
Speaker 2: a self defense plea thanks. I remember that.
Speaker 6: In the meantime, just in case this thing gets messy
Speaker 6: for me and it shows signs. I'm going to spend
Speaker 6: what's left of my free time enjoying myself.
Speaker 2: Well, that won't sound good to a jury, but it
Speaker 2: sounds good to me. I haven't spend too much time
Speaker 2: around here. I might wind up having to plead self
Speaker 2: defense myself. Ah from me, No, I'm not bathing s.
Speaker 2: I spent the rest of the afternoon trying to keep
Speaker 2: two eyes on four people reading from left to right.
Speaker 2: Brother Marty stayed in his room, finishing his book, and
Speaker 2: his brandy Nick Bollati, the bodyguard with nobody the god
Speaker 2: got back on his horse and canned it off into
Speaker 2: the sunset. The joyous widow joy Anne locked herself in
Speaker 2: her room, and all I could get through the keyhole
Speaker 2: was the sound of a light and lovely snort. I
Speaker 2: couldn't tell whether it was the genuine article or not.
Speaker 2: Having no way of checking, I picked up the trail
Speaker 2: of Sarah Tompkins, the housekeeper. She at least was apparently
Speaker 2: up to no good. I found her in the library
Speaker 2: doing just what Lieutenant Mark would have told her not
Speaker 2: to do, smearing the surfaces of mister Martin's desk with
Speaker 2: a dust rag. And as anybody knows, you can't fingerprint
Speaker 2: a dust rag. Hey, cut it.
Speaker 5: Out, mister Martin's private study.
Speaker 2: Those are the police private fingerprints. You're messing up.
Speaker 4: I was doing nothing of the sort from ducking his desk.
Speaker 4: I always do it at this time of day. Get
Speaker 4: out of here, you don't belong in here.
Speaker 2: Keep your wig on, miss Hampkins.
Speaker 5: I'll not be.
Speaker 4: Told what to do by outsiders. Everything was all right
Speaker 4: until outsiders started coming in. If it wasn't for outsider's
Speaker 4: loyal it's still be alive. First tet Girl, then his brother,
Speaker 4: and that detective not the police.
Speaker 2: And you Why did any of you have to come here?
Speaker 5: Why couldn't you leave us alone?
Speaker 2: I'll calm down, missus Tompkins. Trying to calm down, And
Speaker 2: now what's going on in here? One? Oh? And what
Speaker 2: do you too, love birds up to? It's all right, lieutenant.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you about it.
Speaker 7: Later, all right, But get her out of here. I've
Speaker 7: got him looking to do privately. Take it down to
Speaker 7: her room and ain't come back.
Speaker 2: You mean you got something hot? It ain't cold, okay,
Speaker 2: Missus Tompkins. Come on, but I.
Speaker 4: Haven't finished in there.
Speaker 2: Come on, you can get it later. It's just time
Speaker 2: for you to take a little rest before dinner.
Speaker 5: But I never rested time of day.
Speaker 4: He didn't like me too.
Speaker 2: Missus Tompkins. Come on, tell me really, why were you
Speaker 2: wiping off that desk? Those police this morning?
Speaker 4: Scattered white powder all over his desk. He would have
Speaker 4: been furious with me. He hated any coming.
Speaker 2: The shots had come from the library, and that's where
Speaker 2: I went, but not fast enough. By the time I
Speaker 2: got there, Lieutenant Mackwood was dead, and whoever had done
Speaker 2: the shooting was gone, apparently through an open window. Mockwood
Speaker 2: still clutched the shotgun he'd grabbed out of the gun
Speaker 2: case but hadn't had a chance to use. Two things
Speaker 2: had just died in that room, the Lieutenant and a
Speaker 2: hot piece of evidence he'd never had the chance to
Speaker 2: pass on to me.
Speaker 1: In just a moment, we returned to the second act
Speaker 1: of Johnny Dollar. But first, the cream of the wit
Speaker 1: and the best of the music which Arthur Godfrey brings
Speaker 1: you in the daytime on CBS, can now be heard
Speaker 1: on Godfrey's Digest, a new Saturday evening show heard on
Speaker 1: most of these same CBS stations. Listen tomorrow night and
Speaker 1: here the weeks fastest flashes of the Godfrey Humor, the
Speaker 1: top song sung by Jeanette Davis and Bill Lawrence, the
Speaker 1: finest singing of the Mariners. Arthur Godfrey's Digest and the
Speaker 1: Goldbergs are the latest addition to CBS's great Saturday Nights.
Speaker 1: Now with our star Edmund O'Brien, we returned to the
Speaker 1: second act of Yours truly Johnny Dollar.
Speaker 2: Hey, oh Mark, what, Yeah, he's dead? Oh what are
Speaker 2: you doing? Sala? I'm looking for what there seems to
Speaker 2: be a shortage of around here. Blatti clues you don't
Speaker 2: mind where you look? Do you?
Speaker 7: Rule number one? Don't get caught frisking dem cops.
Speaker 2: Forget about it, Billotti, will you maybe I can suffer
Speaker 2: from laps of memory for you. Sometimes that's a deal.
Speaker 2: Got any idea what you're looking for? No, but whatever
Speaker 2: it was, it was important enough to get him killed.
Speaker 2: I'd hope maybe there'd be something in his notebook, for instance,
Speaker 2: I mean lot, oh, very little. It's a brand new book,
Speaker 2: only one notation in it. Check totooing diameter, recheck penetration.
Speaker 7: What do you make of that? It's too scientific for me.
Speaker 7: I'm a skip case and divorce type detected myself. All
Speaker 7: I know is you'd better put that book back in
Speaker 7: his pocket and leave it then.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess you're right. Nice timing, BELDI, and remember,
Speaker 2: thanks for the loss of memory.
Speaker 7: Get it.
Speaker 2: What happened? What's going on?
Speaker 6: Lieutenant?
Speaker 2: Who did it? Dealer's choice? So far? The dealer is
Speaker 2: the only one who knows.
Speaker 7: First My brother, Now, Lieutenant Markwood, there'll be real trouble.
Speaker 2: About this, Johnny.
Speaker 6: Shall I call it? Police?
Speaker 2: Drop the innocent access to them? I'll call it. No.
Speaker 2: Maybe I better do it, Maddy. If everybody will stop
Speaker 2: pleading not guilty by wanting to call the police. I'd
Speaker 2: like to get a word in the police have already
Speaker 2: been called. If you'll get out of here, I'd like
Speaker 2: to try earning my salary. If I had had longer
Speaker 2: ears and more soulful eyes, I would have been all bloodhound,
Speaker 2: because I could sniff out the first of the trail,
Speaker 2: the smell of court. I told me that Lieutenant Mark
Speaker 2: woulds killer and either ben inside the room when he
Speaker 2: fired or just outside with the weapon pointed through the
Speaker 2: still open window. Outside, the grass formed a deep wet
Speaker 2: rug right up to the house and smothered any immediate
Speaker 2: hopes i'd had of finding footsteps. But ten feet away
Speaker 2: I had better luck. A ray of light from inside
Speaker 2: spotlighted something that up like it might be a star witness.
Speaker 2: It was a thirty two caliber avowve. I scooped it
Speaker 2: up with my handkerchief and went back through the open
Speaker 2: window to look it over under the light. I checked
Speaker 2: six empty chambers and a crimson smear on the walnut grip.
Speaker 2: And somebody was feeding me a herring. At shoe was red,
Speaker 2: but it was in blood. It was lipstick. I'd like
Speaker 2: to introduce myself. Dollar, I'm Sergeant Norn McDougall. Oh your sergeant.
Speaker 7: Ah, poor Markwood, Thank the Lord. He didn't have any
Speaker 7: wife and kids.
Speaker 2: I'm glad to hear that cops usually do. This's one
Speaker 2: good thing about it.
Speaker 7: When the police officer goes, there's plenty of 'em that
Speaker 7: lives on the fight back.
Speaker 2: All the police in the world. You can throw in
Speaker 2: the private ones too, Sergeant, Thanks Dollar, ma'am. Maybe a
Speaker 2: better take your statement. Well, it won't take long. I
Speaker 2: heard the shots from the hallway and I came back.
Speaker 2: He was killed either from inside the room or just
Speaker 2: outside the window. I didn't get a look at the killer,
Speaker 2: but I found what might be the murder gun. Here
Speaker 2: it is. I've watched that handkerchief M thirty two caliber.
Speaker 2: How does that match up with a gun that killed
Speaker 2: old man MARKM? Do you know same caliber? H? I
Speaker 2: wonder what he was doing with his shotgun?
Speaker 7: Ain't load and Mark would knew better than the wave
Speaker 7: a unloaded gun in the face of a full one.
Speaker 2: Did you get anything else out of ballistic, Sergeant headache?
Speaker 7: Dollar, what we got from ballistics, don't add it with
Speaker 7: what we got from autopsy.
Speaker 2: Well, how's that those two slugs.
Speaker 7: Entered Martin's body a ninch and a half apart, but
Speaker 7: according to the shallow penetration, they were fired from a
Speaker 7: distance of three hundred yards. Do you know anybody could
Speaker 7: do that kind of shooting with a thirty two?
Speaker 2: That's pretty fancy shooting. Could it have been done with
Speaker 2: a stationary mount a matter chance?
Speaker 7: The body would have started falling after the first shot,
Speaker 7: and you can't reaim a stationary mount that fast.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you're right. You know, I didn't have a
Speaker 2: chance to spend much time with Mark would before he
Speaker 2: got it, so I don't have much to work on it.
Speaker 2: You got anything to spare, Just a lot of routine
Speaker 2: confusion so far. You know yourself.
Speaker 7: Dollar, you take four witnesses, you're bound to get at
Speaker 7: least two different stories. Two of the people that heard
Speaker 7: the shooting when Martin got killed last night, so they
Speaker 7: heard two shots. The other two say they heard one,
Speaker 7: the only thing. The whole four agree honestly they didn't
Speaker 7: see anything.
Speaker 2: Oh that sounds familiar, Thanks anyway, sergeant.
Speaker 7: Sure anytime, Hey, Sam, take this gun into town. Tell
Speaker 7: ballistics to run it through for fingerprints and check it
Speaker 7: against those slugs.
Speaker 2: The Martin case. I want to report right away. I
Speaker 2: hitched the ride with that gun into the ballistics department
Speaker 2: while waiting for the test to be made, I asked
Speaker 2: some questions, and I came up with a real brain buster.
Speaker 2: Despite the fact that the penetration report said that Martin
Speaker 2: had been shot from a distance of three hundred yards,
Speaker 2: his skin and clothing had been tattooed with powder, indicating
Speaker 2: the shots had been fired at close range. The tree
Speaker 2: that little puzzler put me up would have made the
Speaker 2: giant redwood forest look like a hedge. Then they gave
Speaker 2: me the ballistic report. The lands and grooves scored into
Speaker 2: the slugs by the revolver barrow proved that both Loyal
Speaker 2: Martin and Lieutenant Markwood had been killed by the thirty
Speaker 2: two caliber gun i'd picked up in the eye. No
Speaker 2: prints on it. Registered owner, a young lady who looked
Speaker 2: much better in a bathing suit than she'd ever look
Speaker 2: in the electric chair. The widow Joy Anne Martin. Who
Speaker 2: is it the heart for the Horseshow dollar? I want
Speaker 2: to talk to you.
Speaker 6: Oh, I'll be with you in a second.
Speaker 2: I'm okay. First she was in the pool. Now it's
Speaker 2: the shower. He's also in plenty of hot water.
Speaker 6: Hi, don't pay any attention to my hair.
Speaker 2: H don't worry, I won't.
Speaker 6: I suppose you think it's a silly time of night
Speaker 6: for me to be taking a shower. I thought it
Speaker 6: might help me to get to sleep.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm afraid I won't.
Speaker 6: Hi, Johnny, you were.
Speaker 2: You were pretty careless with that gun, weren't you. Hot gun?
Speaker 2: Oh that handy little thirty two caliber gun with a
Speaker 2: handy little registration number engraved on it, that told the
Speaker 2: nasty old police that you bought it six weeks ago.
Speaker 6: Huh, My gun's right here in the drawer. I bought
Speaker 6: it to protect myself from my husband.
Speaker 2: Here, Johnny, Johnny, it's gone. It's real gone. It's done
Speaker 2: gone and killed two men so far. And if you
Speaker 2: can't do some fast talking and some fast proving, it
Speaker 2: stands a good chance of shortening your pretty little life expectancy.
Speaker 6: Somebody must have stored it.
Speaker 2: Oh no, that's not even a down payment on the store.
Speaker 6: But Johnny, there's a whole house full of people who
Speaker 6: could have done it. Not only that, they'd they'd be
Speaker 6: glad to get me out of the way if they
Speaker 6: could Why well, missus Thompskin because she hates me Royle's
Speaker 6: brother Marty, because I stand to inherit everything.
Speaker 2: What about Nick Bollotti? Doesn't he have an extra grind?
Speaker 2: I don't know what he could? Okay, skip it. Tell
Speaker 2: me you remember hearing two shots being fired around here
Speaker 2: anytime before your husband was killed, probably away from the house,
Speaker 2: because I wanna know? Did you? Hm? You amaze me?
Speaker 6: Yes, I did hear two shots the day before Lawyer
Speaker 6: was killed. I was horseback riding down by the Walnut Grove.
Speaker 6: I remember because my horse shoed.
Speaker 2: Well, this is coming a bit too readily to be
Speaker 2: readily believed. But how big is that Walnut Grove?
Speaker 6: Not very big?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Can you spot those shots?
Speaker 7: Ah?
Speaker 2: A little closer?
Speaker 6: They sounded as if they came from about the middle.
Speaker 6: Why I didn't stay to find out it? I guess
Speaker 6: I frightened easily.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you frightened me easily.
Speaker 6: Why Johnny?
Speaker 2: Why? I'll tell you why? Because whether you shot anybody
Speaker 2: or not, your murdered baby, I didn't kill.
Speaker 6: Got to believe in Johnny.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm, I don't have to, But just for a minute,
Speaker 2: will What is there about police drivers? Even out in
Speaker 2: the country. They got to lay on those sirens. Come on,
Speaker 2: you better get dress, sweetheart. I told them, I keep
Speaker 2: you occupied till I got here. The police of Joyanne
Speaker 2: and hurt feelings off of poking. I took myself and
Speaker 2: my hurt cheek off the bed. The next thing I
Speaker 2: had to do had to be done by daylight. So
Speaker 2: I took all the Joyanne's painfully empty and prettily perfumed sack,
Speaker 2: set the alarm for dawn, snorte up a storm. I
Speaker 2: never knew before how much went on in the country
Speaker 2: so early in the morning, on the way to the
Speaker 2: Warmut grove, the damp are washed the cobwebs out of
Speaker 2: my head, and I started thinking now. First, loyal Martin
Speaker 2: had been found dead with two bullet holes in him,
Speaker 2: yet two of the witnesses, Joyanne and the housekeeper, Missus Tompkins,
Speaker 2: had heard only one shot. Second, that powder burnt tattooing
Speaker 2: on the body denoting a close range killing was in
Speaker 2: violent argument with a bullet penetration report which screamed long
Speaker 2: range killing. Those facts, added to what was in Lieutenant
Speaker 2: Markwood's notebook, plus that shotgun clutched in his dead hand
Speaker 2: came close to telling up the total that had cost
Speaker 2: him his life. Inside the grove, I found four walnut
Speaker 2: trees with hollows in their trunks. The first one gave
Speaker 2: me a handful of nuts and the fancy sassing by
Speaker 2: an irate squirrel. The second one came up with a
Speaker 2: handful of spunk water on a wet cuff, and the
Speaker 2: third I found what I was looking for. I found
Speaker 2: about two pecks of clean cotton waste, that is clean
Speaker 2: except for some pouder burns. Everything was falling into place,
Speaker 2: including a blunt instrument which hit me on the head
Speaker 2: from behind. But before I hit the ground, I saw
Speaker 2: a brother, Mardy Martin, legging it back towards the house.
Speaker 2: I made it up the house and into up the
Speaker 2: hill and mounted the trail, and it was just darting
Speaker 2: up the stairs when I heard another out of season
Speaker 2: fourth of July. Yeah, yeah, so I see it was
Speaker 2: up defense. I had to do it.
Speaker 7: I hated to butt in on your case, but all
Speaker 7: of a sudden everything stacked up and I knew he
Speaker 7: was your man. When I throw it in his teeth,
Speaker 7: he made a driver his guns, so I dropped him.
Speaker 2: He sure did Beladi. Well, I owe you a lot thanks,
Speaker 2: but if you don't mind, I'll take over from here. Sure,
Speaker 2: help yourself good, And I think the first thing you'd
Speaker 2: better do is hi tailor into town, get your story
Speaker 2: filed with the police. I guess you're right.
Speaker 7: You're a straight now, so you can back me up
Speaker 7: one hundred.
Speaker 2: Percent, Nick, All the way I'll get going. Come on, okay,
Speaker 2: don see you let it? Can you? Sgian Norm McDougall, Yes, sir,
Speaker 2: side to mcdogo, Johnny Dollars, Sergeant, Well, just another corpse
Speaker 2: and in just about fifteen minutes, the guy who made
Speaker 2: it one and conspired on the other two killings is
Speaker 2: going to walk right into your arms through the station
Speaker 2: house door. What who is it? Nick Bollatti, New York
Speaker 2: private license. He just shot his partner in this thing,
Speaker 2: Marty Martin, We are crazy. What about this girl? What's
Speaker 2: her gun? That was their fondest hope, Sergeant depended on her.
Speaker 2: They borrowed her gun, fired two slugs from it into
