Speaker 1: All right, mister there it is.
Speaker 2: You can't get into this mind, we can't get out.
It's just a question of the lack of water, and
who is forced to give up first? Have Gone, Will Travel,
starring mister John Dayner as Paladin, San Francisco, eighteen seventy five,
The Carlton Hotel, headquarters of a man called Paladin.
Speaker 3: Oh, mister Palazine, missed up, Palazine, I.
Speaker 1: Have no no, not just now, hey boy, later.
Speaker 3: But mister Paladin, not most important.
Speaker 2: Riot, or I'll kill you who he saw pretty grumpy today?
Hey boy, over at the writing desk, over the amber hair,
green eyes, and the go ask the clerk her name quickly.
Speaker 3: My name Annette Vargas.
Speaker 2: And at Vargas it's French. But of course she had
to be French. She's stopping here. Yeah, good alone a loan, excellent.
Now I want you to find the freshest reddest roses
in San Francisco, hey boy, and you attach this card
and take them to her Suite two, Mademoiselle Annette from Paladin.
Shall we say eight o'clock for sinners?
Speaker 1: Sound all right?
Speaker 3: Oh fine, you take his message now?
Speaker 1: Yes, what is it? Hey boy?
Speaker 2: Who's it from? Mamselle, and what she said a gibber
to you, mister Pulladin. Could we have a quiet, quiet
dinner in my sweet this evening and discuss a mutual friend,
Mademoiselle Annette.
Speaker 3: Oh fit ah, can you do that?
Speaker 1: I can do that.
Speaker 4: This is Frank Knight speaking for Long Jean, the world's
most honored watch. Some time ago we published a series
of advertisements called the Adventures of Long Jeans. It told
how Long Jean watches helped the pioneer aviators, how Long
Jean was first to circle the globe with wiley posts,
first to fly over the North and South post with
admiral birds. These true tales prove that whenever time is
of the essence, the watch of first choice is Lawn Jean's.
Not only in championship sports, or in the competitions at
the Great World's Fairs, or in the accuracy trials of
government observatories, but in all fields of precise timing.
Speaker 1: Yet, when you.
Speaker 4: Think of it, a lawn gene is not costly compared
to other things of finest quality. Invest as little as
seventy five dollars in the lawn Jene, and it can
be your proudest possession for a lifetime.
Speaker 1: Your authorized Launjeene with no jeweler will be honored to
serve you.
Speaker 2: The dinner was set for eleven o'clock late, but Mademoiselleinnette
Vargas was appearing in a Continental Review at the Arcadia
Music Hall.
Speaker 1: I attended the performance. On stage, she looked.
Speaker 2: Even more radiant than in the hotel lobby and in
the doorway of her suite, more engaging than any woman
at a.
Speaker 1: Right to appear.
Speaker 5: You are Monsieur Paladin.
Speaker 1: At your service, Mademoiselleanette.
Speaker 3: Please come in?
Speaker 5: Did you?
Speaker 1: Thank you? And do not perform it with me.
Speaker 5: I have been in the United States now for nearly
two years, and I have gone to love what people
do with the English language, especially here in the West,
and I like it a great deal something.
Speaker 1: I'm overwhelmed, Madmoiselle.
Speaker 5: Oh you are not at all. You are wondering if
I am playing some kind of a game with you.
I am not, Monsieur h good health.
Speaker 1: How about something.
Speaker 5: I said I wanted to speak to you as a
mutual friend. He told me of you. Instead, I would
find you a firm, kindly man to be depended upon.
Speaker 1: Who is he Mademoiselle Monsieur lady Kine leddy kne.
Speaker 5: A lonely old man Monsieur Pelicin.
Speaker 2: You knew of his death, Yes I did. But how
did you know him? Where did you meet him?
Speaker 5: He came to see me backstage at the theater one
night in Chicago. He'd watched thirty five performances in a
row and finally mastered up courage enough to come backstage
and tell me that he likes me.
Speaker 1: It sounds like leadhead. Then what Yeah, We dined.
Speaker 5: It was an enchanting evening. He said things to me
like you're so pretty, you make me want to yell.
He talked of his sand and the sage and the
searching and the looking hard hard years before he finally
became rich, and then he was old, and then he
was lonely, and then he met you. Yes, he met me,
And that was the day before he died. He left
me sys please read it.
Speaker 2: To miss Sinnette Vargas, who has been a wonderful friend.
I leave my entire share of the rimrock mind, poor
poor darling.
Speaker 5: I cannot accept it, of course, why not? We must
have a family somewhere.
Speaker 2: He was alone in the world, and that had been
all his life. Now he meant it for you. You
take it, keep it. I know what he felt, but
it is too much.
Speaker 3: I simply can't.
Speaker 5: Oh excuse me.
Speaker 1: Yes, oh.
Speaker 6: Yes, my name is Vance Crawford and I'd like to
talk to you about Leddy Cade.
Speaker 5: Oh well, of course, come in. This is Mitchell Kalladence,
also a friend of mister King.
Speaker 1: How do you do.
Speaker 6: Look, I'll be brief. Let him found that mine, but
I put up the cash to develop it.

Speaker 6: I received a letter from him, apparently written the night
before he died, and he stated that he just made
out a will leaving you his share of the rim
Rock mind.
Speaker 5: Yes, monsieur Paladin, and I, well.
Speaker 1: I'll give you a thousand dollars for it cash.
Speaker 5: A thousand dollars.

I'll tell you this a.
Speaker 6: Probate judge and laugh that will out of court. It's
easy to see what she is and guess what happened.
She made a fool out of him.
Speaker 1: She probably picked him up on a saloon, got him
drunk all the rest.
Speaker 3: Of it to please leave.
Speaker 6: Look, the estate's going to be settled when the circuit
judge stops in Rimrock next week, and you don't have
a chance of collecting.
Speaker 1: Now, how about that.
Speaker 6: Thousand right now?
Speaker 1: And the lady asked you to leave?
Speaker 3: Better, ladies, and you.
Speaker 6: Got a lot less than a thousand dollars for one
night's work out.
Speaker 1: Now, miss Fargus, what can I do to help.
Speaker 7: You?
Speaker 8: Need to do?
Speaker 2: You need to the dollars for an act.

protection insurance plans that pay liberal long term benefits.
Speaker 3: Here's what you need.

at the hotel, and drove out to inspect the Rimrock mind.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes, yes, what.
Speaker 5: He told me it was barren me jeez, but in
a beautiful way. Leddy would have said, Purty used that
were the ideas. It's per toe you when the sand
and the seeds change color, when the clouds chase over them,

but there's a half million dollars in that hole in
the ground.

is anyone around witnesses to be embarrassing. We need it
too wrong, witnesses to your death. Come on the mind

you crawl straight for him.
Speaker 5: He will shoot out to me.
Speaker 1: You'll shoot my hat. I'm mistick.
Speaker 2: I let him and while he's watching you, I'll try
to circle around behind him.
Speaker 7: I go.
Speaker 1: Be careful. As soon as he's seen you, I'll start around.
Speaker 2: Just by kicking your kids.
Speaker 3: Looks like it's gone by a long night.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna blow your head clean off.
Speaker 3: Next time, mesa.
Speaker 1: Nice and still, I'll blow a hole in your back.
How'd you get out of there? Right now? You call
your men, Tell him you're leaving. He'll be back in
a couple of hours.
Speaker 2: Call them shorty, Joe, I'm cutting now.
Speaker 6: I'll be back later a couple hours.

You have to see Crawford. I gotta talk to the boss.

Speaker 1: It was perfect. Now to show my appreciation, mademoiselle.
Speaker 3: Anette is no safe.
Speaker 9: It is now safe, sociable, up to date, debonair.
Speaker 1: What's this a new word game?
Speaker 9: Now I'm just mentioning the qualities that people admire and
other people.
Speaker 2: Oh, I see if you're sociable, up to date and
what was another word?
Speaker 1: Debonair?
Speaker 9: Yes, debonair, but listen to it this way.
Speaker 3: Be sociable.
Speaker 5: Look, mind, keep up to date with.
Speaker 9: Drink, the light refreshing PEPSI, stay young, their devenir.
Speaker 5: Be sociable, have.
Speaker 2: PEPSI notice how many of your friends are serving pepsicola
these days.
Speaker 1: It's the up to date refreshment.
Speaker 9: De sociable.
Speaker 2: The saloon in rim Rock was set up as a
court at a small table at one end for the judge.
He was a flinty faced man in his late sixties.
The room was crowded with miners and prospects.
Speaker 7: Order, all right, now, let's come to order. The first
order of business before this court is settling the estate
of Leadhead Cane.
Speaker 3: All interested parties, President.
Speaker 6: I believe I'm the only interested party in George Believer Crawford,
mister Kane's pardner.
Speaker 7: Well, I don't see that there's anything to say. Oh,
Leadhead didn't leave any air. So I guess just a minute.
Speaker 2: Your honor, please, your honor, before you rule in this
case i'd like to be heard.
Speaker 1: Oh you, my name is Paladin.
Speaker 2: I represent Anette Vargas, who is entitled to Leadhead Cane's
estate by virtue of this document, Leadhead's last woolen testament.
Speaker 6: Let me see.
Speaker 3: Oh that's a fraud, Judge that will.
Speaker 7: Don't mean to think you just can't come in here
with a piece of paper.
Speaker 1: It's been properly with me. Well, all right, Leadhead did
write it, but he was tricked.
Speaker 3: And you all knew Leadhead.
Speaker 6: How many you ever heard him talk about in that
Vargas any of you, of course not. He only knew
her one night. Judge, this year, Mademoiselle Vargas, just a
chief entertainer, caught Leadhead in the trap, which is why
I say this here will should be thrown out.
Speaker 1: Ah, can't be too much argument with that.
Speaker 3: I hear my Just.
Speaker 1: Aren't you going to hear my side? I can't see
that you got one. I assure you, I do your
honner all right, But making sure.
Speaker 2: The question to be decided here is was Leadhead coerced
or even seduced into making this will?
Speaker 7: And it's up to you to answer that question. To
my satisfaction, I'll be.
Speaker 1: Glad to try your honor. But to a jury, this
is no criminal case.
Speaker 2: I believe it is because mister Crawford's chargers are true, then, mademoiselle,
and that is really guilty of extortion, and so am I.
Speaker 1: An extortion is a criminal offense.
Speaker 7: You will understand on that. If a jury finds against you,
you will admit extortion.
Speaker 1: I will you go to jail. You and at missus
Vargas too, I realize that too.
Speaker 2: All right, it'll take a while to pick a Jewely,
it doesn't have to be a full panel, your honor.
Any six men or four minutes.
Speaker 3: All right, you over there and you you are borrow
last a minute, you're go all over. This year's legal.
Speaker 1: I've never seen these men in my life.
Speaker 7: It's his neck, all right, come up here, all now,
sit down there and listen sharp.
Speaker 2: All right, go ahead, mister valaity, gentlemen, I don't know
anything about you, but in each one of you I
see something of Leadhead Cane. It's in your eyes, loneliness.
That look was in Leadhead's eyes too, and he struck
it rich. He could buy anything in the world except
what he really wanted. Affection understanding friendship. Then one night
he went to a theater and he saw a pretty
girl on the stage, and he went to see her
again and again, until at last he met her face
to face like you see her now, Mademoiselle Anette, Will
you please stand now put yourself in his place? That
night he had her to talk to, to laugh with him,
to sympathize with him, to listen as he spoke of
his loneliness and his despair, and to love him a
little bit. Now, gentlemen, I ask each of you to
be Leadhead Caane for just one second of that night.
Speaker 1: Meant tell me what would you have done? That's the
name thing, old Leggy Joy three gay.
Speaker 7: Warder hell.
Speaker 3: This is highly irregular. A verdict's a verdict.
Speaker 7: This will of Leadhead Cane's leaving his share of Rimrock
Mind you a net, Margaret is proper and valid.
Speaker 1: Well, the papers from rim Rock County came through today.
There's your mind.

very nice income for the rest of your life.
Speaker 5: I have an income for the rest of my life.

in the garden. I will always see their eyes and
feel their loneliness.

exciting story of Kurt Sump in the current issue of
Luk magazine. Court was shot at, his wife, beaten by hoodlums,
his son viciously taunted by schoolmates, and the town turned
its back on Kurt Sumf and his family. Why is
it because Sumth is a Jew in Germany? Were the
bullies that attacked him and destroyed his business really just
rowdy hoodlums?
Speaker 1: Or does this signal a new wave of antisemitic.
