WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.960 Now doctor White, And how about the Venerable Bead and 2 00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:04.440 the adventure of Moultrie Abbey. 3 00:00:04.559 --> 00:00:07.400 Well mistabell that story again in Baker Street on the 4 00:00:07.559 --> 00:00:12.439 December afternoon, many many years ago, shortly after tea. 5 00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:14.160 I remember when Sherlock Holmes. 6 00:00:14.119 --> 00:00:16.640 Who'd been pacing up and down our room, from the 7 00:00:16.679 --> 00:00:19.519 stop at the window and looked intently out at the 8 00:00:19.559 --> 00:00:23.760 street below him. A few moments my curiosity overcame me 9 00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:27.079 and I joined my old friend. Looking over his shoulder, 10 00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:29.519 I saw that on the pavement opposite there stood a 11 00:00:29.559 --> 00:00:32.359 young woman dressed in the height of Edwardian fashion. 12 00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:35.000 She wore a third boarn and a broad. 13 00:00:34.719 --> 00:00:37.920 Brimmed hat, from under which she peeped up in a nervous, 14 00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:42.719 hesitating fashion at our windows, while her body oscillated backward 15 00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:45.799 and forward, suddenly with a plunge, like the swimmer who 16 00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:48.119 leaves the bank. She had across the road, and we 17 00:00:48.200 --> 00:00:50.960 heard the clang of our front. 18 00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:55.359 Door bell to growl long enough. Mind took time to 19 00:00:55.560 --> 00:00:56.359 to make up her. 20 00:00:56.320 --> 00:00:59.560 Mind and homes Here's Watson. I have seen those symptoms 21 00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:03.280 before him. Women olsolation on the pavement generally means and 22 00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:06.400 a third you care she would like advice, but is 23 00:01:06.480 --> 00:01:09.319 not sure whether the matter is not too delicate for communication. 24 00:01:09.519 --> 00:01:13.840 She looks a pretttle thing. Perhaps some scoundrels. Juti, oh no, Watson. 25 00:01:14.439 --> 00:01:16.799 In such a case, the usual symptom is a broken 26 00:01:16.840 --> 00:01:19.719 bell wire. Here, I think we may deduce the young 27 00:01:19.799 --> 00:01:23.319 lady is not so much angry as grieved or perplexed. 28 00:01:24.079 --> 00:01:25.879 Why not meet her the head of the stairs, old chap. 29 00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:28.200 I know MISSU Hudson's heumatism is bothering. 30 00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:32.719 Here, so of course I will this way, young lady 31 00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:36.359 s all right, thank you, mister Hutson. I'm I'm Dr 32 00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:37.640 Watson Watson coverl is. 33 00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:39.200 Thank you, Doctor Watson. 34 00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:42.799 This is my friend, mister Sherlock Holmes. How do you do? 35 00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:45.480 How do you do? I'm ster Bio Carter, and I 36 00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:46.879 need your help, mister Holmes. 37 00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:49.640 Then please be seated, Miss Carter. I presume it is 38 00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:52.120 miss since I see no ring on your wedding finger. 39 00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:55.400 Yes it's miss, though that awful man Jonathan Davis would 40 00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:56.280 like to make it missus. 41 00:01:56.439 --> 00:01:58.920 Why quite as a stand any man of quiet? Watson, 42 00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:01.680 please tell me your problem is Carter? 43 00:02:02.120 --> 00:02:04.799 Well, I can tell you in two words, gentlemen, Jonathan 44 00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:07.200 Devis wanted to marry me, and that was bad enough. 45 00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:09.680 But even if we save the Martie fortunes, I couldn't 46 00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:12.120 marry him. Now he wants Harold to leave the company 47 00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:14.319 and disappear. And when we think of the abbey and 48 00:02:14.360 --> 00:02:16.599 the tenants, what can we do. I know that my 49 00:02:16.639 --> 00:02:20.000 brothers did set against outside interference, But tonight is when 50 00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:22.360 we play the music, and if only you. 51 00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:22.960 Could be there. 52 00:02:23.319 --> 00:02:27.199 But it's considerably more than two words, this gutter. 53 00:02:27.319 --> 00:02:29.360 I'm afraid I can't make any two of any and 54 00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:34.199 nor can I. Supposing you begin again and talk more slowly, Oh, I. 55 00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:35.639 Very will, mister Holmes. 56 00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:38.520 Perhaps it will be better if I ask questions. You 57 00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:41.319 will mention your brother's title. May I ask what that 58 00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:41.879 title is? 59 00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:45.479 My brother Harold Carter, the fourteenth Dale of Madri and 60 00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:50.080 the poorest. Confidentially, we're in a dreadful way. Financially, Harold 61 00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:53.280 invested in Canadian copper last year. The market dropped. Recently 62 00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:56.319 we were nearly wiped out. That's when this awful Jonathan 63 00:02:56.360 --> 00:02:57.439 Devis came on the scene. 64 00:02:57.560 --> 00:02:59.759 And who is Jonathan Devis. 65 00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.319 He's a cousin of ours from South Africa. He's a 66 00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:03.400 dreadful bore that. 67 00:03:03.560 --> 00:03:06.000 Extremely wealthy, and he wants to marry. 68 00:03:06.639 --> 00:03:08.800 Yes, but even to the stake of the abbey and 69 00:03:08.840 --> 00:03:11.639 the Mautree fortunes. I couldn't do that. Now he's off 70 00:03:11.639 --> 00:03:14.039 at Herald fifty thousand pounds in cash if you'll go 71 00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:17.960 abroad and pretend to disappear. You see, Jonathan Devis is 72 00:03:18.039 --> 00:03:20.319 next to male kin in line for the inheritance. 73 00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:23.319 So mister Devers is trying to bribe your brother to 74 00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:26.159 disappear so that he may inherit the title. 75 00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:26.560 In the States. 76 00:03:26.919 --> 00:03:30.240 Yes, mister Holmes, in this particular matter, I fail to 77 00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:31.159 see how I can help you all. 78 00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:34.319 But you can, mister Holmes. You see the first Earl 79 00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:36.240 of Moultrie. He was created by Henry bh. 80 00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:36.439 You know. 81 00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:39.759 They're the family motto. It's inscribed in our private catle 82 00:03:39.759 --> 00:03:42.680 at the abbey. It says, if the more trees be 83 00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:45.120 in need, seek the venerable. 84 00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:47.439 Bead Beedle, some fellow who works in the parish, and 85 00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:51.639 b Watson not Beadle, Oh, yes, spelt b. 86 00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:53.199 E b e. 87 00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:56.599 The venerable bad if I'm not mistaken, was an eighth 88 00:03:56.599 --> 00:03:59.439 century monk who is revered not only as a saint 89 00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:01.520 but a first great English historian. 90 00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:03.759 Oh yes, mister Holmes, we have a statue of him 91 00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:06.800 in the chapel, and then we have a pretendly custom at. 92 00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:10.120 I know this may sound to me to you don't 93 00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:12.479 want to, Miss Carter. I'm aware that some. 94 00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:16.519 Of these old crusted supersticions often conceal surprising truths. 95 00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:17.680 They continual. 96 00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:20.560 Well, it's been passed down in the family that if 97 00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:22.959 ever the Molitres were in trouble, they should play a 98 00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:24.319 peculy piece of music. 99 00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:25.879 Would he compose it music? 100 00:04:26.279 --> 00:04:30.639 What an odd idea, extremely interesting, and you're planning to 101 00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:31.720 play the music tonight. 102 00:04:31.519 --> 00:04:33.040 You'll say yes, mister Holmes. 103 00:04:33.240 --> 00:04:35.800 Heaven alone knows the Moltrees couldn't be in worse trouble 104 00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:38.199 than they are now. And I want you to be there, 105 00:04:38.360 --> 00:04:41.279 only Harold doesn't. So I thought, if you'd bring your violin, 106 00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:43.360 I should pretend that you would just come to hear 107 00:04:43.399 --> 00:04:43.879 the music. 108 00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:47.480 An excellent idea, Miss Carter. As I remember Montree Abbeys 109 00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:48.120 in Gloucestershire. 110 00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:51.240 Oh yes, mister Holmes, at Chipping Martin, and especially it's 111 00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:54.480 Paddington at five thirty. Perhaps we could travel together. 112 00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:58.199 Certainly, so it seems like a world goost Chairs Holmes 113 00:04:58.759 --> 00:04:59.759 eighth century. 114 00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:04.759 The strange music. There's a lot of mumbo jump on me. 115 00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:06.279 Where's your chival, Watson? 116 00:05:06.759 --> 00:05:09.560 In any case, surely you recall the single affair of 117 00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:13.240 the musgrave ritual. There's no telling what these old family 118 00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:16.120 customs may portend, so be a good fellow in tack 119 00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:17.959 your bag. There's no time to be lost. 120 00:05:32.240 --> 00:05:34.879 I'll just have time to show the chapel before dinner, gentlemen, 121 00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:37.680 thank you, Lord Gutter. And after dinner I shall be 122 00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:40.720 happy to gratify your musical curiosity in mister home. But 123 00:05:40.879 --> 00:05:44.560 you mustn't regard my sister's visit today too seriously. Sybil's 124 00:05:44.600 --> 00:05:47.600 an overly emotional girl and quite sankly. I wish that 125 00:05:47.600 --> 00:05:50.759 tree hadn't approached you. I feel that Mortree Abby is 126 00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:53.279 my duty here. I'll find some way to save it 127 00:05:53.720 --> 00:05:54.600 and my tenants. 128 00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:57.519 I trust that the music will live up to its 129 00:05:57.560 --> 00:05:58.439 magical reputation. 130 00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:06.959 Hell, this is the travel beautiful building. Let's be very 131 00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:10.319 old or sixteenth century. The abbey house was built nearly 132 00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:14.560 one hundred years later. Hold your lantern a little higher, 133 00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:18.279 doctor Watson.

Note 139 00:06:33.399 --> 00:06:36.720 particularly the delicate work on the beads of the rosary. 140 00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:41.920 Odd, very odd. Indeed, what's our home? The faith of thee? 141 00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:44.079 I have to tell you to keep away from me. 142 00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:47.360 You do this, don't you take you with Tamasha.

It is a legend that it's fathoms. 175 00:08:21.040 --> 00:08:22.800 All I know is that some years ago a prize 176 00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:24.720 heifer of mine was seen to fall in and drown. 177 00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:27.759 We dragged the lake, but now grappling hooks we could 178 00:08:27.759 --> 00:08:30.879 have didn't touch the bottom interesting homes.

Who forced 185 00:08:51.879 --> 00:08:54.679 that market drop in Canadian copper which wiped out the 186 00:08:54.759 --> 00:08:58.159 moll tree fortunes.

Ah. 194 00:09:38.600 --> 00:09:41.759 Now the Simples played that rather dull piece of discordancy. 195 00:09:42.240 --> 00:09:46.200 I hope you're all satisfied. Naturally, the more tree fortunes 196 00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:47.399 will be restored. 197 00:09:47.919 --> 00:09:50.039 Very funny, Jonathan, What do you make of it? 198 00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:50.799 Mister Holmes? 199 00:09:51.240 --> 00:09:56.679 It's curious, very curious. Will you repeat that principal theme again, please, 200 00:09:56.720 --> 00:10:10.840 miss Cardam. Yes, of course, thank you, Miss Carter. I 201 00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:14.039 think I begin to get a glimmering of the mysterious message. 202 00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:17.559 Sounds like a jumble of meaningless note to know. 203 00:10:17.799 --> 00:10:20.759 I'm doctor Watson. Your brilliant friend thinks that he saved 204 00:10:20.799 --> 00:10:24.000 them Alti fortunes, and that is herold. I suppose you 205 00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:26.559 won't need to see mister Alexander in London tomorrow. Why 206 00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:28.000 how did you know that your sitid is is a 207 00:10:28.039 --> 00:10:31.639 fan of Star bankruptcy proceedings at the latest tomorrow, I 208 00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:34.879 too have my investigators, Harold, I seem a bit more 209 00:10:34.919 --> 00:10:39.480 efficient than your great Sherlock Holmes. Good night, sall, good 210 00:10:39.559 --> 00:10:40.120 night gentlemen. 211 00:10:42.440 --> 00:10:44.919 There you are. What are you doing listening at a 212 00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:47.639 dog swim? I was just a guide to the kitchen. 213 00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:51.600 Get out the table the way you're belong. I see 214 00:10:51.639 --> 00:10:53.840 that groom again, Harold. I'll break his neck. See where 215 00:10:53.840 --> 00:10:54.559 he goes tonight? 216 00:10:55.399 --> 00:10:57.120 How dare he think you like that? Harold? 217 00:10:57.360 --> 00:11:00.480 He's not nassy here, not yet, so I can't hold 218 00:11:00.480 --> 00:11:02.000 onto the place much longer and he knows it. 219 00:11:02.440 --> 00:11:04.399 Sorry, unpleasant candle, you ask me. 220 00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:07.240 Mister Holmes. You said the music gave you some clue 221 00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:07.919 to the message. 222 00:11:08.080 --> 00:11:11.919 It did, Misscutter, but it requires thought and a certain 223 00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:16.279 amount of musical experimentation. I doubt if this music room 224 00:11:16.320 --> 00:11:18.840 would welcome the consumption of an ounce of two shag tobacco. 225 00:11:19.399 --> 00:11:21.840 I think, therefore, that Watson and I will retire to 226 00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:22.559 our own rooms. 227 00:11:23.159 --> 00:11:25.120 With the aid of a pipe in my violin, I 228 00:11:25.159 --> 00:11:29.080 shall give the matter undivided attentions, and tomorrow, tomorrow own 229 00:11:29.679 --> 00:11:32.799 Montree Abbey will go into receiverships. 230 00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:33.840 Not while Sherlock Holmes is on the case. 231 00:11:34.039 --> 00:11:38.360 Thank you, Watson, A man of my peculiar modesty needs 232 00:11:38.399 --> 00:11:39.759 your constant reassurance. 233 00:11:58.159 --> 00:12:01.320 Good listen, though, then why not go to sleep, my dear? 234 00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:04.480 How can I keep scrapping where the wretched siddles. 235 00:12:04.679 --> 00:12:09.679 Dad, dead, dead, dead lot of rubbish did them? Half 236 00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:28.080 the night We'll get you. Oh, I will sleep. When 237 00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:32.000 the more trees are in need to seek the venerable Bee, 238 00:12:33.639 --> 00:12:37.320 this music will solve them all trees problems. You don't 239 00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:38.440 we play, mister Dams. 240 00:12:38.519 --> 00:12:39.960 I'll have your plot for this so well. 241 00:12:41.080 --> 00:12:43.559 Too bad that you're the first started back up the 242 00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:44.759 proceedings tomorrow. 243 00:12:46.240 --> 00:12:56.799 You must help us, You must when the more trees 244 00:12:57.399 --> 00:13:04.240 need he Oh, I've got it, spots them wake up, 245 00:13:04.360 --> 00:13:10.279 Wake up? What's up? Homes I prop answer Watson, I've. 246 00:13:10.200 --> 00:13:13.000 Solved the musical message before the night, just Drew. I 247 00:13:13.120 --> 00:13:15.399 think we shall find the secret of Moultrie Abbes. 248 00:13:27.360 --> 00:13:29.519 In just a moment, we will rejoin Sherlock Holmes and 249 00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:34.000 discover just what that secret is. Leading hair specialists in 250 00:13:34.080 --> 00:13:36.840 this country constantly advises to take better care of the 251 00:13:36.960 --> 00:13:40.639 hair we've gots, and men don't forget that.

And why settle for 254 00:13:47.440 --> 00:13:49.679 just any hair dressing when you can enjoy the extra 255 00:13:49.799 --> 00:13:54.080 advantages of Kreml hair Toannic. Kreml is a highly specialized 256 00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:57.159 hair tonic which gives you your money's worth.

It keeps hair attractively groomed at 259 00:14:04.159 --> 00:14:06.639 all times, looking so neat and orderly. 260 00:14:07.240 --> 00:14:09.879 But Crammel does lots more than keep hair looking handsome. 261 00:14:10.519 --> 00:14:14.320 A Creml massage stimulates circulation right in the surface of 262 00:14:14.360 --> 00:14:17.039 your scalp and leaves your scalp feeling so alive and 263 00:14:17.120 --> 00:14:21.679 invigorated it at the same time, Crammell removes dandriplaced and 264 00:14:21.759 --> 00:14:24.600 it's excellent to lubricate a dry scalp.

I quickly dressed, and, in the 278 00:15:02.960 --> 00:15:05.679 moonlight homes and eyes still thick, crept down the corridor 279 00:15:06.080 --> 00:15:09.279 to Lord Carter's room. A few moments later, the three 280 00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:11.919 of us, carrying lanterns, started down. 281 00:15:11.720 --> 00:15:17.759 The staircase leading to the main hall home. If we waited, 282 00:15:17.879 --> 00:15:21.039 Lord Carter's room. I'm sure it is certain that I 283 00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:24.399 saw another door down the corridor half open and then closed. 284 00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:26.799 Which door wanted? The last one on the right, that's 285 00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:29.399 Jonathan's Ever's room. Well, I suppose he knows that we're 286 00:15:29.480 --> 00:15:32.080 up to, which I must confess is more than I do. Well, 287 00:15:32.120 --> 00:15:34.000 if I'm right, not eating devils can stop it. 288 00:15:34.120 --> 00:15:37.159 Now you're being confined to mysterious homes. Will you tell 289 00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:39.000 me why we're heading to the chapel at two in 290 00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:40.840 the morning. In a few moments, I shall make the 291 00:15:40.840 --> 00:15:45.080 reason extremely clear to you, I hope. Well, I here's 292 00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:45.399 the door. 293 00:15:50.759 --> 00:15:53.799 Look, look, look, Look whose stained glass. 294 00:15:53.559 --> 00:15:56.720 Windows are there? I swear that someone with a lantern 295 00:15:56.759 --> 00:15:59.960 in the grounds outside. Our immediate problem is here inside. 296 00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:02.919 Focus your lantern on the statue of the venerable Bead, 297 00:16:03.080 --> 00:16:05.879 Wasn't That's where the answer to the mortary legend lies. 298 00:16:05.960 --> 00:16:07.919 I think, for Heaven's sake, Holmes, I wish would be 299 00:16:07.960 --> 00:16:10.519 more explicit. Very well, let me see if I can 300 00:16:10.559 --> 00:16:19.080 whistle those notes written in the musical scene. The notes 301 00:16:19.200 --> 00:16:24.639 are B E D E B E A D. These 302 00:16:24.720 --> 00:16:27.440 notes were followed by a rhythmically repeated series of the 303 00:16:27.519 --> 00:16:31.240 note D four times. Surely now the pattern becomes clear. 304 00:16:31.440 --> 00:16:35.000 Well, note the E D e obviosist and for b 305 00:16:35.480 --> 00:16:37.919 a velnerable bad. And we're standing in front of a 306 00:16:37.960 --> 00:16:40.519 statue here now. But the second four notes A, B, 307 00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:41.559 E A D. 308 00:16:42.080 --> 00:16:44.600 You yourself pointed out the rosary on the Venerable Beads 309 00:16:44.639 --> 00:16:48.679 statue Old Kata. The notes B, E, A, D must 310 00:16:48.759 --> 00:16:51.320 refer to the beads of the rosary. That's why I 311 00:16:51.399 --> 00:16:54.759 became suspicious on first seeing the statue. The rosary did 312 00:16:54.840 --> 00:16:57.480 not come into use till almost five centuries after the 313 00:16:57.559 --> 00:17:00.559 Venerable bead, yet his statue had one. 314 00:17:01.639 --> 00:17:04.480 What does a repetition in the note D four times 315 00:17:04.559 --> 00:17:05.759 mean after the melody, I. 316 00:17:05.880 --> 00:17:08.680 Think it gives us the vital clue. D is the 317 00:17:08.720 --> 00:17:11.640 fourth letter in the alphabet, and it's repeated four times. 318 00:17:12.400 --> 00:17:14.839 Let's see what happens when we press the fourth bead 319 00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:18.799 on the Venerable bead's rosary. So, by George, I think 320 00:17:18.839 --> 00:17:19.599 you're on the right track. 321 00:17:20.759 --> 00:17:22.720 You are. Look at that section of all behind the 322 00:17:22.759 --> 00:17:25.480 pont It's said back, come on, let's see what it 323 00:17:25.559 --> 00:17:30.480 takes us to. There's a narrow stone staircase leading below. 324 00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:33.960 But I'll go first homes. Perhaps you have saved the 325 00:17:34.039 --> 00:17:36.799 Mortreine fortunes after all. I hope so, Lord Carter, I 326 00:17:36.880 --> 00:17:39.920 hope so. I watch your head watching on the built 327 00:17:39.960 --> 00:17:41.559 the steps of pigments. 328 00:17:42.720 --> 00:17:46.559 Homes. Do you suppose we'll find any hidden treasure down here? 329 00:17:46.839 --> 00:17:49.839 I shall suppose nothing buttson. In a few moments, there 330 00:17:49.880 --> 00:17:52.759 will be no need for conjecture. Oh, I'm afraid we've 331 00:17:52.839 --> 00:17:55.880 drawn a black what's wrong, Lord Carter? Look for yourself. 332 00:17:57.160 --> 00:18:01.640 Hmm. Deserted crypt with a few cobwebill relics. 333 00:18:01.759 --> 00:18:05.599 Yes, a crucifix, a bible, a gutted candlestick on the 334 00:18:05.640 --> 00:18:08.480 table here, or they may have some small intrinsic value, 335 00:18:08.519 --> 00:18:09.440 but nothing else. 336 00:18:10.359 --> 00:18:12.519 Oh, I was a fool to have any hopes. I 337 00:18:12.680 --> 00:18:14.480 was expecting to find buried treasure. 338 00:18:14.839 --> 00:18:19.680 Wait a moment, something, possibly the treasurer has recently been 339 00:18:19.720 --> 00:18:20.319 removed from here. 340 00:18:20.480 --> 00:18:21.599 What makes you say that? Homes? 341 00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:24.400 The room is thick with dust, and yet there's a 342 00:18:24.519 --> 00:18:27.599 large rectangular space free from dust on the table, as 343 00:18:27.640 --> 00:18:31.200 though a heavy folio volume had recently been lying there by. Georgia, Right, homes, 344 00:18:31.480 --> 00:18:35.319 and look here on the floor, fresh footprints. Yes, someone 345 00:18:35.359 --> 00:18:37.039 has recently anticipated our discovery. 346 00:18:37.079 --> 00:18:38.720 It's a very hard to guess who that someone was. 347 00:18:39.200 --> 00:18:41.079 Jonathan Devils Ah. 348 00:18:41.759 --> 00:18:44.279 Observed these curious marks on the floor by the table, 349 00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:48.799 four round dusts, rectangularly spaced. I should say that the 350 00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:51.480 Glanston bag has been placed here, a bag that was 351 00:18:51.559 --> 00:18:53.160 undoubtedly used to remove the treasure. 352 00:18:53.279 --> 00:18:55.680 Why homes? Why carry off a heavy book in a bag? 353 00:18:56.359 --> 00:18:59.799 Supposing that book will priceless Vanue Watson? Suppose it with 354 00:18:59.880 --> 00:19:02.559 the air room with the Mautar's family, and its discovery 355 00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:06.279 by the rightful owner might stay the estate. Yes, and 356 00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:08.680 I'm sure that Devils is quite capable of stealing it. 357 00:19:09.160 --> 00:19:11.559 The question is, though, what would he do with it? 358 00:19:11.720 --> 00:19:12.240 Precisely? 359 00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:15.759 And to answer that question, I shall try and imagine 360 00:19:15.759 --> 00:19:19.200 myself in the shoes and mister Devils, I am a millionaire, 361 00:19:19.599 --> 00:19:22.079 and therefore I don't need the treasure to risk it 362 00:19:22.160 --> 00:19:24.480 to tell it anyway, All I want to do is 363 00:19:24.519 --> 00:19:25.759 to keep it from the moor trees. 364 00:19:26.279 --> 00:19:30.000 So I'll destroy it. But how I have the time 365 00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:31.440 or the opportunity to burn it? 366 00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:34.359 Difficult to put a heavy book in any case, So 367 00:19:34.440 --> 00:19:36.519 I'm looking for some place to dispose of it where 368 00:19:36.559 --> 00:19:40.240 it may never be recovered. Does fathomless lag on this estate. 369 00:19:40.519 --> 00:19:42.720 That'd be the face the bottomless time to. 370 00:19:42.720 --> 00:19:44.759 Remember the devil tell us earlier that he'd been walking 371 00:19:44.799 --> 00:19:45.440 back this evening. 372 00:19:45.559 --> 00:19:47.279 Then let's go there as sash as we can.
