- 0:00Speaker 1: Now after Watson, how about the story of the White Cockle, Well.
- 0:03Speaker 2: Mister Bell.
- 0:03Speaker 3: That adventure took place after Shark Holmes had given up
- 0:06Speaker 3: his regular practice and had tied to his beef arm
- 0:09Speaker 3: on the Sussex Down. I was staying with him there
- 0:12Speaker 3: for a few weeks holiday, and I remember coming down
- 0:14Speaker 3: to breakfast one morning to find my old friend his
- 0:17Speaker 3: pipe clenched between his teeth, squatting on a stool examining
- 0:22Speaker 3: the contents of a.
- 0:23Speaker 2: Large metal box at his feet. Had he threw back
- 0:27Speaker 2: the lid, I could see the box.
- 0:28Speaker 3: With half full of papers, papers tied up with red
- 0:31Speaker 3: tape in separate packages. After starting through them for a
- 0:35Speaker 3: few moments, he turned to me and said, a box
- 0:40Speaker 3: of secrets, my dear Watson, A box of deep dark secrets.
- 0:45Speaker 2: These are records of your early cases home.
- 0:47Speaker 4: Yes, my boy, these were all done before my biographer
- 0:50Speaker 4: had come to glorify me.
- 0:51Speaker 2: I've often wished that I had the notes.
- 0:53Speaker 4: Solemn, so that you might transmute my little adventures into
- 0:56Speaker 4: those rather florid stories of your stores.
- 0:59Speaker 2: On for the fact you'll count who will help me.
- 1:02Speaker 2: Don't be hurt, my gentlemen.
- 1:04Speaker 4: Much earlier in the day, Well, Watson, perhaps someday the
- 1:07Speaker 4: world will hear of these cases. They're not all successes,
- 1:11Speaker 4: but there are some pretty little problems among them, I'm sure.
- 1:14Speaker 4: For example, here's the record of the Tarletan murders. And
- 1:18Speaker 4: here's the case of Bambury the wine merchant.
- 1:20Speaker 2: What happened to him?
- 1:21Speaker 4: He died, Watson, under peculiarly horrible circumstances. Well, that case
- 1:26Speaker 4: was one of my failures, I'm afraid. Ah, this adventure
- 1:30Speaker 4: was really a little resachey.
- 1:32Speaker 2: It's a full.
- 1:33Speaker 4: Account of Ricoletti, of the club Foot in his abominable wife.
- 1:36Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I regularly remember a dreadful woman ghosts from
- 1:39Speaker 3: the past, Watson, ghosts to remind me that my heydays
- 1:43Speaker 3: long past rubbish.
- 1:45Speaker 2: I'm quite sure that of a case, but presented serve
- 1:47Speaker 2: at this moment, you'd be totally unable to resist your rono,
- 1:50Speaker 2: old chap.
- 1:51Speaker 4: Look at this note arrived just before you came downstairs.
- 1:54Speaker 4: Mister Manderby the local Square apparently needs my help.
- 1:58Speaker 2: And yet I assure you I'm not to at least
- 2:00Speaker 2: tempted to give it to him. Certainly, Yeah, yes, sure, Holmes,
- 2:07Speaker 2: I need your help.
- 2:08Speaker 3: Desperately, have the goodness to call on me as soon
- 2:11Speaker 3: as convenience permits.
- 2:14Speaker 2: Continued theft of chickens. They appear to be a small
- 2:17Speaker 2: matter chickens in vision, But I.
- 2:19Speaker 3: Assure you that sinister forces at work asking you to
- 2:24Speaker 3: catch a chicken thief?
- 2:26Speaker 4: Well, really home, yes, Watson, chickens.
- 2:29Speaker 2: Something of a come down, isn't it. Well do you
- 2:31Speaker 2: know this, mister manderver?
- 2:32Speaker 4: No, but surely his handwriting at Joe Cuto's characters.
- 2:37Speaker 3: Legible and regular man of business habits, I should say, and.
- 2:40Speaker 2: Of some force of character.
- 2:42Speaker 4: No, no, what we look at his long letters, they
- 2:45Speaker 4: hardly write above the common herd, that D might be
- 2:48Speaker 4: an A and the l an e. Men of character
- 2:52Speaker 4: always differentiate their long letters, however illegibly they may write, there's.
- 2:57Speaker 2: Vacillation in this case, and self esteem is capital.
- 3:00Speaker 4: They homes elementary madea Watson, and our long association together
- 3:03Speaker 4: should remind you of the bet I'm.
- 3:05Speaker 2: Afraid you're getting rustled. Perhaps you're getting rusted to homes.
- 3:08Speaker 3: And since the sun is shining, and this letter comes
- 3:10Speaker 3: from a neighbor of yours, it might be rather interesting
- 3:13Speaker 3: to all on, mister Manderby exactly. I'd like to see
- 3:18Speaker 3: if you're analysis of his character matches the gentleman himself.
- 3:22Speaker 3: In any case, Holmes, he may really be in trouble
- 3:25Speaker 3: with that Watson.
- 3:27Speaker 4: You're like an old war horse hearing a nearly forgotten bugle.
- 3:31Speaker 2: Leaving the stolen chickens. It's good to be in harness
- 3:34Speaker 2: with you again. When that wistful tone creeps into your voice.
- 3:37Speaker 4: I can't duc you, Watson, very well, Let's stroll across
- 3:40Speaker 4: the downs and investigate the mystery of mister Mandaby's chickens.
- 3:56Speaker 4: Mister Hols, I'm glad you and your friend came here.
- 4:00Speaker 4: It would seem to me, mister Manaby, that you know
- 4:03Speaker 4: vis this course would have been the call in the
- 4:04Speaker 4: local police I did, and the idiot scot that man indeed,
- 4:08Speaker 4: mister Vandabel why they said, if they had to track
- 4:11Speaker 4: down all the chicken teeves in these parts, they'd.
- 4:14Speaker 2: Have no time for their more important duties.
- 4:16Speaker 4: I must admit that I can follow their reasoning, sir, well,
- 4:19Speaker 4: I can't, since they seemed to spend most of their
- 4:22Speaker 4: time playing skittles.
- 4:23Speaker 2: In the Star and Garter, the local sergeant appears to.
- 4:26Speaker 4: Have been selected for his complete lack of gray matter
- 4:30Speaker 4: one I opra of imagination.
- 4:32Speaker 2: He's unable to see in what respect this differs from
- 4:35Speaker 2: an ordinary chicken? Deep? And in what way do did defer,
- 4:38Speaker 2: mister Mandabe?
- 4:39Speaker 4: Well, the chicken cooks were broken into with considerable ingenuity.
- 4:44Speaker 2: The thief could have taken.
- 4:46Speaker 4: All he could carry, but he stole only one chicken,
- 4:49Speaker 4: A white cockrew, a white cockrew.
- 4:53Speaker 2: When did this take place? Early last evening?
- 4:55Speaker 4: That was when I sent my nood to mister Holmes.
- 4:58Speaker 4: But in the early hours of this morning.
- 5:01Speaker 2: A burglar broke into the house itself. And what was
- 5:04Speaker 2: her in this time?
- 5:05Speaker 4: Again that he took only one object, my daughter's hair brush.
- 5:10Speaker 2: Does your daughter know of these thefts? No? No, I
- 5:13Speaker 2: didn't tell her.
- 5:13Speaker 4: The child's full enough of peculiar fancies as it is
- 5:17Speaker 4: a white cockrol and a hair brush.
- 5:19Speaker 2: It's Amanda Bey. I came here against my better judgment,
- 5:22Speaker 2: but thank Heaven I did. Please let me talk to
- 5:24Speaker 2: your daughter at once.
- 5:26Speaker 4: Unless I'm very much mistaken, there's Devil's worker.
- 5:28Speaker 2: Put. Unless you're the plane in the drawing room, I'll
- 5:44Speaker 2: kick you in.
- 5:45Speaker 4: I think, if you don't mind, mister Manderby, that we
- 5:48Speaker 4: would prefer to see her alone.
- 5:50Speaker 2: Rubbie.
- 5:51Speaker 4: What could you possibly wish to say to my daughter
- 5:53Speaker 4: that you couldn't say in front of me?
- 5:55Speaker 2: Since my friend had been kind enough to help you,
- 5:57Speaker 2: so I think you'd better let him conduct his investigation
- 5:59Speaker 2: in his own.
- 6:00Speaker 4: Oh, very, very very well, all sounds unnecessarily mysterious to me.
- 6:05Speaker 4: I'll be in.
- 6:08Speaker 2: A contest, fellow. You were writing your analysis and his
- 6:11Speaker 2: character home. Well, let's go in. Listen to the piano, Watson.
- 6:18Speaker 2: What a weird tune year.
- 6:22Speaker 4: On primitive melody to hear in the heart of the
- 6:24Speaker 4: English countryside.
- 6:26Speaker 2: Very curious?
- 6:31Speaker 5: Sorry, father, God it isn't father.
- 6:35Speaker 2: Who are you?
- 6:36Speaker 5: Gentlemen?
- 6:37Speaker 2: Miss Mandaby, permit me to introduce myself.
- 6:40Speaker 4: My name is Chlock Holmes and this is my friend,
- 6:41Speaker 4: doctor Watson.
- 6:42Speaker 2: How do you do man?
- 6:44Speaker 5: Mister Shallock Holmes. I knew you lived in the neighborhood.

- 6:50Speaker 5: And nothing's wrong?
- 6:52Speaker 2: I'm not sure, Miss Manderby, That's why we come to
- 6:54Speaker 2: talk to you. Oh, Maaby, sit down mine, yes, of course,
- 6:58Speaker 2: please forgive me.
- 7:00Speaker 4: You played the piano excellently, Miss mander Bin. Have you
- 7:03Speaker 4: ever thought of concert work?

- 7:07Speaker 5: Never, you alart, he needs me here all the time.
- 7:10Speaker 2: You got see many people here to help.
- 7:13Speaker 5: No, that's wat'sn't Papad doesn't like him to cultivate any friends.
- 7:17Speaker 5: He wishes me to have wrought all my attention to him.
- 7:19Speaker 2: Extremely selfish and medieval point of view, it seem you mean, oh.
- 7:22Speaker 5: Cristmas sounds you must have seen anything against Papa. If
- 7:26Speaker 5: he knew that we were talking about him, it would
- 7:28Speaker 5: be curious.
- 7:29Speaker 2: Then let me confine myself to you, Miss Manda Beein.
- 7:32Speaker 4: Do you know of anyone in this neighborhood who might
- 7:35Speaker 4: wish you serious harm?
- 7:36Speaker 5: I know so, I don't. I left because I told
- 7:40Speaker 5: you right, I heard her.
- 7:41Speaker 4: Anyway, Then, why, my dear young lady, are you so
- 7:44Speaker 4: obviously terrified of your own shadow?
- 7:48Speaker 5: Please don't ask me that. I haven't even had the
- 7:50Speaker 5: courage to tell apart.
- 7:52Speaker 2: Possibly not, my dear, But mister Holmes is here to
- 7:54Speaker 2: help you and to protect you.
- 7:56Speaker 4: That's why he insisted on our seeing you know, yes,
- 7:59Speaker 4: miss Mandaby, and a trouble shared you know, very sounds.
- 8:05Speaker 2: How I'll tell you, I've got to tell someone.
- 8:09Speaker 5: Last night I had a ghastly dream. I dreamed that
- 8:14Speaker 5: I was in some foreign country in the jungle. I
- 8:18Speaker 5: was tied to a stone slab, and a group of
- 8:21Speaker 5: natives danced around the waving knives, and they were all
- 8:25Speaker 5: wearing terrifying mass.
- 8:27Speaker 2: It sounds like too much love to quite please continue
- 8:31Speaker 2: this night have been all the time?
- 8:33Speaker 5: I could hear a strange, haunting pipe playing in the background.
- 8:37Speaker 5: Sounded like some sort of flute, and it was a
- 8:40Speaker 5: drum beating out a slow rhythmic beat.
- 8:42Speaker 2: The same rhythm that you were playing on the cano
- 8:44Speaker 2: as we came in. Oh.
- 8:45Speaker 5: Yes, it's been haunting me ever since I awakened this morning.
- 8:49Speaker 2: It goes like this.
- 9:06Speaker 5: Suddenly, mister Hans, I awakened from the nightmare, but I
- 9:09Speaker 5: could still hear the melody continuing. I went to the window,
- 9:13Speaker 5: and in the moonlight I saw a tall man walking below.
- 9:16Speaker 2: Could you recognize him, No.
- 9:18Speaker 5: Mister Hames. He was disappearing through the shrubbery and his
- 9:21Speaker 5: back was turned, but his hands were raised to his mouth,
- 9:25Speaker 5: and I could hear the same melody being played under
- 9:28Speaker 5: some kind of flute.
- 9:29Speaker 2: He was awful, awful. You haven't told your father about it?
- 9:34Speaker 5: No doctor watching, He wouldn't have believed me. Papa is
- 9:38Speaker 5: always accusing me of being fanciful, but I'm not really
- 9:42Speaker 5: I'm not.
- 9:42Speaker 2: Miss Mandaby.
- 9:43Speaker 4: I'm glad that you've told us this, though I suggest
- 9:46Speaker 4: that you'll continue to keep instant the secret from your father.
- 9:49Speaker 2: Very Rose has come on Watson while at home.
- 9:52Speaker 3: Goodbye, my dear and courage, Miss Manderby, you have friends now.
- 9:57Speaker 4: Gentlemen, there will all this about when I can answer
- 10:04Speaker 4: that question, Watson. The tis was solved as it is,
- 10:06Speaker 4: there's work to be done. Oh yes, mister Amandabean, here
- 10:12Speaker 4: we are.
- 10:13Speaker 2: I hope you find out what's wrong with the last year.
- 10:15Speaker 2: She hasn't been herself today, a.
- 10:17Speaker 4: Change from her normal self where you are concerned it
- 10:20Speaker 4: might be a benefit s Yes.
- 10:22Speaker 3: Indeed, the portio seems to picture terrified of yourself.
- 10:24Speaker 4: The problem with my daughter's relationship with our father is
- 10:27Speaker 4: no possible concern of yours. I asked you here on
- 10:30Speaker 4: a simple matter of detection. Detection, yes, but far from simple.
- 10:35Speaker 4: I warn you you're in serious danger, the loss of
- 10:37Speaker 4: a great deal more than.
- 10:37Speaker 2: A white cottroll in my hairbrush. Beyond your guard, mister
- 10:40Speaker 2: Manda beein Doctor.
- 10:41Speaker 4: Watson that I must conduct a little investigation in the
- 10:44Speaker 4: village you may expect.
- 10:45Speaker 2: A call from us later in the days for Watson.
- 11:00Speaker 2: Here we are at largest charming house. But I still
- 11:03Speaker 2: don't see quite why we're here, because.
- 11:05Speaker 4: My inquire is uncovered the fact that this is the
- 11:07Speaker 4: only house in the neighborhood with relatively new tenants. When
- 11:11Speaker 4: something extraordinary happens in the peaceful countryside, look first for
- 11:14Speaker 4: a newcomer. The owner's name is mister George Chaffey. Let's
- 11:20Speaker 4: see what information the gentlemen can give us.
- 11:23Speaker 2: Listen to that home. Sounds like a flute.
- 11:27Speaker 4: Yes, Watson, and the melody is the same that mister
- 11:30Speaker 4: Manderbin played for us on the piano.
- 11:31Speaker 6: And this house is only a stones her away from her.
- 11:34Speaker 6: I said, yes, Jeddon, mister Chaplin. Yes, my name is Holmes,
- 11:39Speaker 6: and this is my friend doctor. While you do so,
- 11:41Speaker 6: how are you?
- 11:42Speaker 2: Doctor? What can I do for you? Jeddu I'm something
- 11:46Speaker 2: of a student of music.
- 11:47Speaker 4: We were walking pat your house and I heard what
- 11:50Speaker 4: sounded like a flute playing a strange fellow.
- 11:52Speaker 2: Seemed to come from the direction of stables over.
- 11:55Speaker 7: Oh that.
- 11:59Speaker 2: It's my servant, Hacker. He's a West Indian. Brought him
- 12:03Speaker 2: over with me through Tili Dan. He's quite a musician
- 12:06Speaker 2: in an amateur sort of way. Now I wonder if
- 12:09Speaker 2: I might speak to him. Gord, you can, mister home,
- 12:11Speaker 2: I'll walk you over the Thank you.
- 12:14Speaker 4: We were thinking of getting up a little entertainment in
- 12:16Speaker 4: the village for the church Latest Bizarre. Perhaps your man
- 12:20Speaker 4: would consider contributing his services.
- 12:23Speaker 2: You can ask him.
- 12:24Speaker 7: He spends two or three hours a day out here
- 12:26Speaker 7: practice hacker. Yes, come here a minute, Yes, mister Fevr.
- 12:33Speaker 7: These gentlemen heard you play and wondered if you'd like
- 12:36Speaker 7: to do something for some some really contents or other. Oh,
- 12:41Speaker 7: that's flattering. We're organizing a musical soiree for the church.
- 12:45Speaker 2: Latest in a few weeks. He's a man, and we'd
- 12:46Speaker 2: like you to play for us.
- 12:48Speaker 4: I'm on an amateur. Well, be very glad to help, gentlemen.
- 12:51Speaker 4: That instrument you were playing it had an odd quality.
- 12:56Speaker 2: Was it a fruit?
- 12:57Speaker 8: Yes, sir too, I doubt if you've ever seen one
- 12:59Speaker 8: like it? Look for yourself, Lord, looks it's made of
- 13:03Speaker 8: Oh it is, sir, from a human leg. Borne Well,
- 13:08Speaker 8: it's about two hundred years old and originally came from Brazil.
- 13:11Speaker 2: It's quite a collectious item. I'm sure it is. Tell me, Hawker.
- 13:16Speaker 4: Since you're from the West Indies and obviously a lover
- 13:19Speaker 4: of music, I presume you're familiar with some of the
- 13:21Speaker 4: primitive melodies indigenous to that part of the world.
- 13:24Speaker 2: Some of the tribal chants, for instance. Oh yes, sir,
- 13:27Speaker 2: I know many of them. Perhaps you would play some
- 13:30Speaker 2: of the concerts.
- 13:31Speaker 8: I'd rather not, sir, primitive chance of dangerous medicine and
- 13:35Speaker 8: that evil powers are not appreciated or understood.
- 13:37Speaker 2: I quite agree with you, Haker.
- 13:40Speaker 4: Well, well, I'm much obliged to and we shall count
- 13:42Speaker 4: on you for the concert.
- 13:43Speaker 2: Good day to you both.
- 13:44Speaker 3: Come on, Watson, it's time at homes. He is in
- 13:52Speaker 3: two hundreds of this Mandaday and he plays the truth well.
- 13:56Speaker 4: Watson, though I don't think the patn is remotely as
- 13:58Speaker 4: cares you think, I agree with that suspicion would seem
- 14:01Speaker 4: to focus on a sertain Harker. I could even produce
- 14:04Speaker 4: another crewe that points that you could.
- 14:06Speaker 2: I picked this.
- 14:07Speaker 4: Object from his courts. He turned to you during the conversation.
- 14:10Speaker 4: None of you noticed what is it? Look this up, Watson, Yeah, great,
- 14:15Speaker 4: heaven it's a feather from a white cock crew.
- 14:30Speaker 2: Holmes. I put you said we were going back to

- 14:44Speaker 3: I'm an exhaustive inquiries in.
- 14:46Speaker 2: The village with what result?
- 14:47Speaker 3: I couldn't find out much about mister Schaffler. Nobody knows
- 14:49Speaker 3: anything about the man, accept that he has a foreign
- 14:52Speaker 3: man servant, and that he paid cash for result and deposited.
- 14:55Speaker 2: A large summon money in the local bank. What did
- 14:58Speaker 2: you discover?
- 14:59Speaker 4: I say, you up curios in reference books, Yes, Watson
- 15:03Speaker 4: books concerning that peculiartive voting ceremony is connected with Buddhism.
- 15:07Speaker 4: Buddhism that's black magic, but flourishing in our English countryside.

- 15:14Speaker 4: Finest sacrifice in Buddha magic, association with the West Indian.
- 15:18Speaker 2: Chantakhouse for the first test about his stne hair brush.
- 15:21Speaker 4: In all such magic, the possession of intensely personal options,
- 15:24Speaker 4: particularly human hair, is considered to give great supernatural powers
- 15:28Speaker 4: over that person, and it's.
- 15:29Speaker 3: Obbly if that western your termed is trying to get
- 15:31Speaker 3: power on.
- 15:32Speaker 2: Mis Manda be fun. You spoke of a white cockrow
- 15:34Speaker 2: being the second time of sacrifice? What is the first?

- 15:53Speaker 2: I have nothing that happened to the Vanava Already before
- 15:55Speaker 2: we get the it quite wrong. The man of thought disappears.

- 17:57Speaker 4: Can see how the seen got into the house with
- 17:59Speaker 4: homes by climbing this trellis work.
- 18:03Speaker 2: Foot prints on the earth leading toward it, but none leaving,
- 18:06Speaker 2: and the man whoever he wants must have left the
- 18:07Speaker 2: house by some other exit and amazing deduction, Watson, No
- 18:10Speaker 2: need to be sarcastic. Home, we should go to the
- 18:13Speaker 2: chapter's house at once. It's obvious, but that's where the
- 18:15Speaker 2: danger lies.
- 18:16Speaker 4: Therefore, saying that anything is obvious, Watson, I'd like don't
- 18:19Speaker 4: help in trying an experiment. Of course, we're to try
- 18:22Speaker 4: climbing that trellis for me.
- 18:23Speaker 2: Will you give me all the best jobs? Don't you
- 18:26Speaker 2: will work here? You're have you go? It seems to me.
- 18:30Speaker 4: You're wasting valuable time, mister Menothyth, since you have find hope,
- 18:34Speaker 4: I suggest you let me handle the case in.
- 18:35Speaker 2: My own way. Don't think this trellis is a whole
- 18:38Speaker 2: by way. Oh brother Watson, your test has been invented
- 18:47Speaker 2: for what do you mean it's been invaliable? I think
- 18:48Speaker 2: I've broken my back.
- 18:49Speaker 4: I'm sure you'll survive. Come on with cha, get on
- 18:51Speaker 4: your feet. We'll sco to mister Chapper's house at once.
- 18:54Speaker 4: I ownly hope we're not too late to prevent a tragedy.
- 19:12Speaker 2: Light coming from the stable home music too.
- 19:15Speaker 3: Listen, it's a wet Indian playing his devilish chart again
- 19:20Speaker 3: faster watok. Look look the someone standing in the shadows
- 19:25Speaker 3: bout the harness from there.
- 19:27Speaker 4: To mister Champion, but eaveing son, mister hoo Dot Watson,
- 19:31Speaker 4: Thank heaven, you're here.
- 19:32Speaker 2: What's wrong, mister Champion? Looking at empty stores? Here?
- 19:35Speaker 4: You can see through the broken plank in the wall,
- 19:37Speaker 4: the one where the music's coming from.
- 19:41Speaker 2: The coach.
- 19:42Speaker 4: There's miss mander beIN lying on the floor unconstus yes,
- 19:44Speaker 4: with a dead white control beside him, and the fire
- 19:46Speaker 4: smolding in the corner. I just think that servant of
- 19:48Speaker 4: mine's in. They're paying his stilty music. I don't say him,
- 19:52Speaker 4: mister Hooes. I've got to involve him. I'm going into
- 19:55Speaker 4: getting I think we'll come with him, mister Shadow my seventh,
- 19:59Speaker 4: I'll take care of myself.
- 20:00Speaker 2: Hunt Watson, give in that room us get to me.
- 20:03Speaker 2: I say, what do you think you're doing? How do
- 20:06Speaker 2: you bother right over his head?
- 20:08Speaker 4: Figure out, Watson, I have a profoundest light for seeing
- 20:11Speaker 4: murder committed under my very eye.
- 20:12Speaker 2: Murder that the politic can you murder? Is hardcase be
- 20:15Speaker 2: to serve. Indeed, then why is his unconscious body lying
- 20:18Speaker 2: in the corner. That can't be the music you're playing.
- 20:20Speaker 4: That's his fruit, Yes, and that's accompanied by a drum,
- 20:22Speaker 4: a remarkable feat even from them not lying unconscious on
- 20:25Speaker 4: the floor. Music is I'm uting you to that of
- 20:27Speaker 4: a band of phone. You're remarkably quiet, mister Harker. Years
- 20:30Speaker 4: he's unconscious. My dear Watson, your overlooking an important fact.
- 20:33Speaker 4: It's a case of identity. The West Indian gentleman lying
- 20:36Speaker 4: on the floor is the master, mister.
- 20:37Speaker 2: Shapley, this man is the servant Parker. No, you're got
- 20:44Speaker 2: calls me.
- 20:45Speaker 4: You can't prove in mind Canada, I will you will
- 20:47Speaker 4: go to prison for this next work, Watson. See what
- 20:50Speaker 4: may be done to the rag house while I turn
- 20:52Speaker 4: this man over to the police. How is miss mana
- 21:05Speaker 4: pay Watson? He's he's gonna be all right home. I
- 21:09Speaker 4: took her home to her father's and at constructions for
- 21:12Speaker 4: her care. How are you feeling different. Fine, thank you,
- 21:15Speaker 4: Doc Watson. But I'm waiting for mister Holmes to explain
- 21:18Speaker 4: this nice happens to me. So and you then let
- 21:21Speaker 4: me analyze this singular affair and its logical progression. I
- 21:26Speaker 4: early concluded that you, mister Shapley, were the master and
- 21:29Speaker 4: the other man.
- 21:29Speaker 2: Was the second, right, mister Holmes, but I didn't know
- 21:31Speaker 2: how you knew it.
- 21:32Speaker 4: To your speech and manner suggested nothing else. You reversed roles,
- 21:36Speaker 4: I imagine because it was an easier way to rent
- 21:38Speaker 4: a house in the English countryside. That was the reason,
- 21:41Speaker 4: mister Holmes.
- 21:42Speaker 8: In my previous visits, I've discerned a certain prejudice against foreigner.
- 21:45Speaker 2: It's a shocking thing. I wouldn't doubt it.
- 21:48Speaker 3: Mister Shepler, you decided to live here, your health person,
- 21:52Speaker 3: no doctor.
- 21:53Speaker 8: I came to the English countryside for peace peace, to
- 21:56Speaker 8: conclude my studies on the origin and history of West
- 21:58Speaker 8: Indian native music. I had been working in close conjunction
- 22:02Speaker 8: with Professor Griffis of the Brighton College of Anthropology. It
- 22:06Speaker 8: was he who concerned me to make graphophone records my words,
- 22:10Speaker 8: with a view to recording them from musical archive.
- 22:12Speaker 4: And your servant saw his advantage when you decided to
- 22:16Speaker 4: change identities.
- 22:17Speaker 2: He realized that if he.
- 22:18Speaker 4: Disposed of you, he would be able to continue in
- 22:20Speaker 4: his false characters. The supposed mister Shapley. He could have
- 22:23Speaker 4: taken over your large bank balance and retired under yet
- 22:26Speaker 4: a third name with the proceeds.
- 22:28Speaker 2: And then he.
- 22:28Speaker 3: Conducted this elaborate clock involving voodoo a native chance, knowing
- 22:33Speaker 3: that his master would be suspect.
- 22:34Speaker 4: Precisely he dragged his master, placed him in the incriminating tramp,
- 22:38Speaker 4: and then planned to burst in just ahead of us
- 22:41Speaker 4: and shoot him.
- 22:41Speaker 2: But Herms the white further you found of mister Chapter's
- 22:43Speaker 2: coat undoubtedly planted there.
- 22:45Speaker 8: Mister Holmes, I still don't see how you knew that
- 22:48Speaker 8: my man was responsible.
- 22:49Speaker 4: The first clue was the treadis. It's obvious that you
- 22:53Speaker 4: never claimed crime, that you're heavier than doctor Watson, and
- 22:56Speaker 4: it wouldn't support his weight. Your servant was a small
- 23:00Speaker 4: light man, Obviously.
- 23:01Speaker 2: It was he. I see it all now.
- 23:03Speaker 3: And then, of course, when we heard the music while
- 23:06Speaker 3: mister Chaffey was still lying unconscious, it was obvious that
- 23:09Speaker 3: the whole thing was a plot.
- 23:11Speaker 2: What a what a shocking ReSm.
- 23:13Speaker 8: Yes, but I can't tell you how grateful I am
- 23:15Speaker 8: to you, gentlemen. You've saved my life. Mister Holmes, I
- 23:19Speaker 8: must insist on paying you a handsome fee. A fee, no, mister.
- 23:23Speaker 2: Chaffey, I couldn't dream of accepting one.
- 23:26Speaker 4: Some people in my country have been sufficiently inhospitable to
- 23:30Speaker 4: a foreigner to make him believe it advisable to change
- 23:33Speaker 4: places with his own servant.
- 23:35Speaker 2: Presumably this was done in order to obtain tolerance and peace.
- 23:39Speaker 2: Surely the least I can do is to see that
- 23:42Speaker 2: his stay on these shores is a tolerable one. Girls,
- 23:57Speaker 2: I imagine most of you are planning to go.
