- 3:44you by All Dutch Cleanser At five o'clock Monday afternoon, a heavy set man
- 3:49and a pretty red headed girl walk down the twisted streets near Maiden Lane and
- 3:53enter the musty shop of Jason Grange, one of the biggest coin dealers in
- 3:58the East. Mister Grange, mister Grange, y'all here in the star.
- 4:08Just please, just one man, It's okay, We're the only ones here.
- 4:13You plents. Give me a pain, that's what you do, a
- 4:15big stiff pain, always coming in and closing time. Never give him any
- 4:18chance to have dinner. Now, what is it? Please? What is
- 4:20it isn't it the most cunning man in the whole world, I declared.
- 4:26Daddy told me you were cute, but I never dreamed the famous mister Graine
- 4:30should be like this. I got half a mind to give you a great
- 4:33old hug and a cute Please. I'm Sally Ann Mason. You can call
- 4:39me Sally Mason. Mason. You are lated to Colonel Mason the members.
- 4:44I'm his daughter, mister Grain, great collector, Colonel Mason, one of
- 4:47the best. So you're his daughter. Hell, well, what are you
- 4:53doing? Daddy sent me up to buy a coin from you, mister Grain?
- 4:58Did eh think of that? He wants to buy the eighteen four silver
- 5:02dollar? Whoa, I never thought he'd get around to it. Eh,
- 5:08price is ten thousand dollars you know. Yeah, I brought the cash with
- 5:13me. Cash. Yeah, this is mister Brown from the bank. He
- 5:17was sweet enough to chaffer me around the city. Show mister Grange the money.
- 5:21Mister Brown got it right here, mister Grange and five hundred. But
- 5:26if you don't mind, I've got the responsibility for this little girl. Could
- 5:30I ask why the coin she's buying is supposed to be worth ten thousand?
- 5:35You're interested? Eh? Of course. Oh wait, I'll take it out
- 5:39a safe you can see for yourself. Good. In the year eighteen four,
- 5:44nineteen thousand silver dollars were mended, but only three are in existence today,
- 5:50and of the reason is that the coins were shipped north by a boat
- 5:54from the men. The boat was lost at sea. It makes the eighteen
- 5:58four dollars one of the rarest American coins. And here it is, I
- 6:04declay, isn't it just too cunning for words? Okay, Louis sure?
- 6:12What's it? Well, madam, I hope this is really urgent. You've
- 6:24interrupted three reports and a lab analysis with your hurry up call not to mention,
- 6:28making me miss my dinner. Nick, this is really a mess.
- 6:30Murder with a sort of trimmings. Oh yeah. This is the body of
- 6:34Jason Grange, coin collector and dealer, murdered about an hour ago, three
- 6:40bullets dead center through the heart. I see what are the trimmings in the
- 6:44first place. Grange was shot with the craziest looking bullets I ever saw.
- 6:48The medical examiner just extracted them. Here. Take a look chronicle slug with
- 6:54a point squared Yeah you know what it is? Sure the square pointed nine
- 6:59milimeters lugar. It's unusual in this country. What else? Well, whoever
- 7:02murdered Jason Grange stole only one single coin? What coin? An antique silver
- 7:10dollar dated eighteen four, worth ten thousand dollars. Yes, the famous lost
- 7:15dollar. Most of them are supposed to have been lost by shipwreck. Well,
- 7:18how do you know the dollar? Was there only thing stolen? Oh?
- 7:20We checked on that, checked his stock against his inventory. The only
- 7:25thing we could find missing was that sunken dollar. Sounds logical. And here's
- 7:30another trimming Before Grains died, he scrolled the numbers one eight oh four in
- 7:36blood on the floor. You see it? Oh? Yeah, gets curious
- 7:42here and curious here? Anything else? Yep? And this soil killion Under
- 7:46the counter we found the corner of a five hundred dollar bill. Looks like
- 7:50it was torn off accidentally. Here this is very interesting. Happened to notice
- 7:59that the engraving is rather fuzzy, Maddy, you got quick eyes. Nick.
- 8:03Took me ten minutes before I noticed. What are you two talking about?
- 8:07This is a piece of connivent money. Passy. Well, Nick,
- 8:09let's see you put it together. Why did the killer only steal the eighteen
- 8:13four dollars when he could have taken a fortune in money and rare coins.
- 8:18And how come the counterfeit five hundreds? Just one answer, Matty. This
- 8:22was murder for advertisement, murder for money. The killer or killers deliberately murdered
- 8:28Grains to advertise the theft of the eighteen four dollars. Why do you forg
- 8:31you that, Nick? On the first place, Grains didn't write eighteen four
- 8:35blood the killer did what. Grains was killed with three bullets through the heart.
- 8:39He must have died instantly. He couldn't have written that date. We
- 8:41sure that's right. The killer wants the world to know that the eighteen four
- 8:46dollars was stolen wine so he can sell it. Oh, I don't think
- 8:50so. I won't overlook the convent money, Patsy. What's that got to
- 8:52do with? The killer probably got Grains to show him the dollar by flashing
- 8:56pony money and pretending to be interested in buying. But why if the killer
- 9:00can counterfeit modern money, he certainly can counterfeit an eighteen four dollars. Holy
- 9:05smoke, Nick, you think he's going to counterfeit a whole pack of these
- 9:09sunken dollars? I do with a theft? Well, advertised he can sell
- 9:13dozens at ten thousand dollars each, pretending each one is the original stolen dollar.
- 9:16Then what do we do? We got nothing to go, Maddy,
- 9:20You've got plenty. That loger bullet is a rare bullet. There not many
- 9:24dealers in this city who'll carry it. Oh, you're right, Nick,
- 9:26Thank I your squad check every dealer, try to get a line on recent
- 9:30purchasers. Right, what about you? I'm going back to the laboratory and
- 9:33do some research into the fine art of counterfeiting. Nick, Nick's past Midnight.
- 9:50Aren't you ever going to quit? I'm almost finished, Betsy, What
- 9:52did you got? Well? I've been through my counterfeiting samples about twenty times.
- 9:56I think I've eliminated all except five of them. Good. Each of
- 10:01those five closely resemble the work on this note. Get our files on coniference
- 10:09ready. First sample. Jerry Hall Jerry Hall, Jerry Hall at present,
- 10:16serving twenty year term in Atlanta, and let's him out hell more, well
- 10:20more, hell more dead, killed in forty five and gets us down to
- 10:28three. Joe Mitchell Mitchell out on parole, working in Chicago. Maybe Joe's
- 10:35gone back to the old racket Larry Denby Alpatrad, Peter Baker Baker breaker breaker
- 10:45h Peter Baker at large. This city, last known address twenty eight eight
- 10:50seconds, and it's between Pete Baker and Joe. Mitchell will check Joe later.
- 10:54Maybe he's still in Chicago. Right now, we'll run down a twenty
- 10:56eighty seconds to see what you Oh the fun Nick Carter's office, Patty Bowen
- 11:01speaking, I see this is Matty. Got a report for Nick for just
- 11:05a minute. Right as Maddy just finished the check on the Luger bullet.
- 11:09Nick, only person who bought a nine millimeters slug in the past six months
- 11:13is a woman. A woman, Yeah, she bought it last week.
- 11:18Couldn't get anything much in the way of a description. She's a pretty redhead.
- 11:22That's all all right. Matty thinks maybe I'll have something to report to
- 11:26you in an hour or so, yees, such as what I'll know as
- 11:28soon as I've spoken to Pete Baker. What time is it, Louie,
- 11:43Louie, what's down that magazine? What'd you say? What time is it?
- 11:48One o'clock? He pee? Pete Baker? Yeah, how much longer?
- 11:54Grandpa? There's a couple of minute, or I'll hurry it up.
- 11:56You know he's a U. Sound like you're pretty good kid when you put
- 12:01on that southern accent of us. Yeah, I mean you don't like me
- 12:03this way? Sure, sure you better, Hey, Grandpa, I'm tide
- 12:09waiting, all right, all right, the first time ever made moles roll
- 12:13fashioned goal like this dollar. You better do better with that than you did
- 12:16with them Forwy. Five hundred two flashed down Grange. Though, the old
- 12:20boy is gonna get wise. They were so bad. You got a nerve
- 12:24Talcolt, the best graver and moller. Kay, okay, okay, just
- 12:30get those molds finished and finish now a minute. Aim to cast them silver
- 12:37dollars, show them Yeah, worth much ten grand each, grandpa. And
- 12:43it's safer and passing regular though it's the guy that buys an eighteen four dollar
- 12:48finds out as the phony. He can't squawk. He's already bought stolen goods.
- 12:54That's pretty smart here, he's ainything this job every time. Let's see
- 13:07what bea able to tell a coin cast from this moral from the real thing.
- 13:09Yeah, pretty good, pretty good. Okay, wrap them up,
- 13:13Louis, and let's get out of here. Just a minute, folks,
- 13:18five grand. There's the price for making them moss. You don't take them
- 13:22unless you get paid. He wants to be paid, paying Louis, Okay,
- 13:43this is twenty eight. He's second, Betsy. Come on, Oh,
- 13:50I feel as goo. I'm walking in my sleep. It's all a
- 13:52little l after one. We'll be finished soon. Take a look at the
- 13:56sign on the door says this building has been connec Yeah, so I see,
- 14:01and we're out of luck. Huh, not necessarily, Unfortunately, it's
- 14:05not unusual for people to have to live in a condemned building until it's actually
- 14:09torn down. Certainly be an ideal place for a hideout, wasn't find anyway.
- 14:20Golly, it's the darkest pitch in here. Get my flash light out.
- 14:24Yeah, it's better. Oh, Nick, this place looks deserted.
- 14:28Maybe this apartment certainly empty? So's this one? Oh? This is a
- 14:35wild goose chase name worked? A couple of empty milk bottles outside that door
- 14:39down the hall. Well, they've probably been there for months. Best bet.
- 14:43Can't afford to jump to conclusions. I take a look in that apartment
- 14:46anyway. There's some furniture in here, Nick, So I see, Nick,
- 14:56it's not that perfume. Somebody's been in here recently. Yes, smell
- 15:01is too strong to be very old. Oh oh, Nick, Is that
- 15:07Peter Baker there on the floor, Yes, and he's very dead. In
- 15:20the glare of the flashlight, Pete Baker's body is outlined, sprawled on the
- 15:24cluttered floor. Swiftly, Nick inspects the dingy room. Having discovered Pete Baker's
- 15:28body on the floor of his room, Nick examines the dead man closely.
- 15:35Two bullet wounds in the chest, body is still warm. That's sat Baker
- 15:39was killed only a few minutes ago. Nick, that perfume we smelled,
- 15:41Maybe the woman who wore that perfume killed him. Possible one. If there's
- 15:46anyone else living at this house who might have seen or heard anything, well,
- 15:48there's one way to find out, Meck. Yeah, I'll see what
- 15:50I can find in here. While I do that, suppose you go through
- 15:54the building, cover every apartment, right, see if you can find anyone
- 15:56who heard shots about five minutes ago, and what they did about it if
- 15:58they did, Nick, I've been to every apartment in the building. Why
- 16:11did you find nothing? They're all empty? You find anything? I did?
- 16:15There was a woman in here with Baker. I found this long red
- 16:18hair. Oh, but I think there was a man with here. Why
- 16:22do you think that found the cigar? But under that chair, it's probably
- 16:25where he sat. See all the cigar hashes in the floor there. But
- 16:27couldn't Baker have left it there? Oh? I doubt that Baker smoked the
- 16:30pipe still there on the floor where he dropped it when he was shut Yeah,
- 16:34Nick, what do you think happened? Baker must have been making a
- 16:37mold for them. His blow torch and crucibles and other apparatus are still walking.
- 16:42Could he have been making a mold of the eighteen oh four dollar?
- 16:45Do you suppose? Very likely? The way this case ties together, when
- 16:48he finished it, they killed him and then walked out. Yeah you're through
- 16:52here now, Nick, Yeah, I think so. We'll call Mary and
- 16:56go home and get some rest. Okay, Nick, here's the final report
- 17:12from the lab. Fine, Matty, let's have it. Well. You
- 17:15figured it out just about right. There Apparently was a man and a woman
- 17:18in the place with Baker, and she was a ridhead. The chances are
- 17:22she's the same redhead who bought the Luger bullets by Joe Maddy, I've forgotten
- 17:26about that. When we got the man's prints with the woman wore gloves,
- 17:30could you identify the man? Yeah, we checked the prince he left on
- 17:33this magazine. Nick, he's Louis Larkin, hijacker, gunman and all round
- 17:37crook, two turns in the state pen. Here's his file, fogo that
- 17:44helps? Yeah? Hey, what's this slip of paper in the magazine,
- 17:47Maddy? Something of yours? No? No, just now, the dealer
- 17:51must have stuck him before he sold it, says if you want your newspapers,
- 17:55forward it to you while you're on vacation. Leave your name at the
- 17:57store. Maddy, you say you found Larkin's prints on this magazine. Eh,
- 18:03look at the dateline? What this magazine was put on the stands owner
- 18:07yesterday? Yeah? How does that help? You? See the name on
- 18:11his head Rogers Candy Store, one hundred Park Road. So what, oh,
- 18:15Mady, don't you see that's the store this magazine came from. But
- 18:18what was it doing in Baker's place? Then? Hey, that's right.
- 18:22Park Road is where Crosstown from where Baker lives. Maybe Baker didn't buy the
- 18:26magazine. Maybe Louis or the girl bought it. Yeah, maybe Louie and
- 18:30the girl are hiding out somewhere near this Rogers candy store. That's what I
- 18:36was thinking. Well, if they are, Patsy and I will find them,
- 18:52Louis, Yeah, got the bags packed yet? Yeah, let's stop
- 18:59finished. I've been going over the list of coin collectors. Louis. Got
- 19:03a nice schedule works out, and we hit Chicago first. Got are three
- 19:08collectors there ten grand each makes thirty grand as well in Saint Louis, Cleveland,
- 19:15New Orleans, Al Pazzo, La Frisco, and Seattle. The way
- 19:21I figured it, we'll split three hundred grand easy. Yeah, we sure
- 19:25should pretty cheap for knocking off a couple of punks. Huh. You remember
- 19:30to get the train tickets yesterday. They're on the dresses there in the envelope,
- 19:34right. I got to hand it to myself, Louis. It's a
- 19:38foolproof racket. Some of these collectors are crazy. Guy. If they're daffy
- 19:45enough, they don't mind buying rare coins even when they know they're stolen.
- 19:48What I like about it is that they got to keep it secret because they're
- 19:51buying stolen goods. They got to cover up rush that's foolproof. Louie,
- 20:00come to the window quick. Well down on the corner in front of the
- 20:04candy store. She got to old guy standing there with magazines under his arm.
- 20:08Yeah, that's Nick Carter, Nick Garter. Yeah, how's love with
- 20:15that packing? Louis, Let's get out of here. Yeah. Maybe Carter's
- 20:18around just by accident. Maybe he's on tours. Either way, we're taking
- 20:22no chances, not for three hundred grand in a murder rap. We ain't
- 20:37over here, patchy, hurry up. I got here as soon as I
- 20:42couldn't it? Do I look enough like a Bobby socks are for you?
- 20:45You're looking fine? Well, I still don't understand. Why do I have
- 20:48to get dressed up like a Bobby socks and meet you here in front of
- 20:51Roger's candy store. Hey, you're gonna buy me a soda? Huh?
- 20:56No, they're going to sell magazine subscription? Yes, why in order to
- 21:00find a pair of killers? Okay, Nick, give with the plan.
- 21:04Well, you remember one of them left the magazine at Pete Baker's workshop,
- 21:07and I traced it to this candy store. Yes, the proprietor says he's
- 21:11sure the man who bought it lives in that house across the street that he
- 21:14doesn't know who he is or in what apartment he lives. And so I'm
- 21:15going to sell subscriptions from apartment to apartment until I find him. Right.
- 21:19His name is Louis Larkin. Here's his picture. No beauty is he and
- 21:25there may be a redheaded girl with him, the one with a perfume.
- 21:27I'll remember the perfume. Now listen, Betsy, just find out where they're
- 21:32located. Don't try anything else. They have a little too dangerous to play
- 21:36with. Yeah, good morning, sir. I represent the your States magazine.
- 21:52It wasn't Louis Larkin and no perfume yet. Good morning, madam.
- 22:04I represent the Universal Next and which is helping me work my way through college

- 27:10assorted thefts and murders. All out, please, Oh well, before I
- 27:15forget one cent, please, hazel Ah, not only win the bed.
- 27:19I'm here to cole eggs. God, was a beautiful job, Nick,
- 27:32beautiful. But there's just one thing I don't figure. What's that matter?
- 27:37How in places did you know enough to get around to the back street and
- 27:40borrow that cab. I have ears, haven't I? I heard Hazel and
- 27:45Louis making their plans. Huh, you heard them? How I was outside
- 27:49the apartment door. You don't think I'd let you walk into that murderer's den
- 27:53alone, do you? I was right behind you all the word. You
- 27:56were right behind me? Yes? Then why didn't you bust in and capture
- 28:02those two crooks right then and there? Didn't want to take any chances on
- 28:04anyone in a crowded apartment house being hit by stray bullets. But they might
- 28:07have killed me before they left. Patsy, you may be sure that I
- 28:11waited until I knew they were going to take you with them before I did
- 28:15what I did. Say, that was quite an egg. All State Magazines,
- 28:19Universal Magazine. You didn't trust me to do it all by myself?
- 28:23You, Oh, you'd treat me just like a baby. I hate you,
- 28:27you, you mere man, Al Patsy easy you know if it comes
- 28:33to that, how come you were so positive Nick could get Hazel and Lowie.
- 28:37Oh? I heard all about the bet one hundred dollars to one cent.
- 28:41Oh that yeah, you were betting on a sure thing yourself, now,
- 28:45weren't you? You knew Nick was the cab driver, but I did
- 28:48not. I never recognized him. Then how come the bet? Because I
- 28:52knew I could trust Nick, which is more than he can say for me.
- 28:56But Patsy, if I hadn't followed you to protect you, I wouldn't
- 29:00have been able to win that bet for you. Well, oh, all
- 29:04right, you win. Heaven knows you always do. Nick Carter, Master
