Sherlock Holmes Radio The Ancient Egyptian Curse Basil Rathbone, Nigel Bruc · Sherlock Holmes

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Now, doctor Watson, what about the singular affair which began
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: in the sackless thanks confined that the British Museum.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Well, I must admit that I was not a frequent
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: visitor to those gloomy halls.
• 0:09
  Speaker 3: But on this.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Particular morning, homes have been insistent. All scientists in London,
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: especially the archaeologists, were a god of the arrival of
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: Lord Cranwood's sensational Egyptian discoveries. Several days homes have been
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: deeply immersed in research among the Cranwood antiquities, so that
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: now I find myself in the Egyptian gallery of the
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: British Musem.
• 0:32
  Speaker 4: I say, what's the look here? This notation definitely proves
• 0:35
  Speaker 4: the use of string instruments as well as fruits as
• 0:37
  Speaker 4: early as three thousand BC.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Interesting homes interesting indeed, if plesa, the smoking is absolutely.
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: A big muff or right or right or hello Homes
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: or Watson. I don't think you know, Professor Halliday of
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: the British Museum. Professor, this is my friend, doctor Watson.
• 0:53
  Speaker 5: Doctor Watson, not the eminent doctor Eustace Watson, the well
• 0:57
  Speaker 5: known archaeologist of Edinburgh.
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: I'm honored, mister John H. Watson the Bakery Street, Oh Solo.
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: This is doctor Watson's first visit to all your magnificent
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: new acquisitions. Professor Halliday, it's a veritable treasure house, gentlemen.
• 1:08
  Speaker 5: The late Lord Cranwell's excavations at the sight of ancient
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: Aby does have given the Museum a priceless mine of information.
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: Yet the price in human lives has not been inconsiderable.
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: First Lord Ranwood himself only a few days after the
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: Shrine of Harsha Feet was opened.
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: I'm out of almost eighty Mister Holmes, the strain and
• 1:24
  Speaker 5: excitement of the discovery but too much for him, no doubt.
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: And then a month later, doctor Duma disappearing mysterious day
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: from camp, only to be found hopelessly insane and babbling
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: madly before he died, and young Wilson vanished into thin air,
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: had assumed to have been lost overboard from the shift
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: that was bringing the expedition back to England, though it
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: was a calm, moonlit night.
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: Don't tell me that you, of all people believe this news.
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: They could talk the Husha Fitz curse, mister Holmes. I
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: believe nothing that is not susceptible of proof.
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: Professor. Evidently the new Lord Cranwood is quite undisturbed by
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: any threats of a curse upon his family. I've seen
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: him working here every day this week. Is is that
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: Lord Crodwood. Yes, he's a deliberate man over there, just
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: beyond that fifth sarcophagus Wood. He chap with a rather
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: florid faces, packing those notes into his briefcase.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: Must judging from his appearance, I should think the curse
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: of or watch his name wouldn't have much luck with him.
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: You excuse me, gentlemen, I WoT a word with Lord
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: Cranward before he leaves.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: As the whom supposing I run along, I'll beat you
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: the club for Lunchome, Lord cragwe better why he's.
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: Collapsed with Watson. I don't understand. He just seemed the keel.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: Let me take a load of him.
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: You were standing right toside him. Professor just won't have
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: fun is speaking to him? He clutched his throat. Try
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: to say something had collapsed home, Yes, what's the man's dead?
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: Impossible cause of death? Watson, I should have said, heart.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: But but the.
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: Curious rigidity of the muscles. If his hands and throat
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: aren't consistent with that diagnosis is that.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: It wasn't quite correct, Homes.
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: He would better notify Scotland Yard at once. Professor Halliday
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: got and God whos to hold it you suggesting? I
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: suggest nothing, Professor Halliday. But Lord Cranwood has died extremely suddenly.
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: In you are the three previous deaths which have occurd
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: among the members of the expedition. I feel that this
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: is definitely a matter for the police. I sent for
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: them at once. I'm certain, Watson, that the second b
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: look at Lord Cranwood's body will suggest to your mind
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: a cause of death with which you cannot be unfamiliar
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: after your NY career in India. The congested eyeballs, the
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: rigid neck muscles.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: You mean snake.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: Bite precisely, the bite of some venomous and highly poisonous
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: snake is the only cause consistent with these appearances that.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: There are no snakes here in the British Museum.
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: That, Watson, is why I sent for Scotland Yard.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: You've been pacing up down enough two solid days' homes.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Would it be too much to ask you to be
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: seated for at least five minutes?
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry, Watson, and the lack of any satisfactory solution
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: to the problem of Lord Cranwood's death has driven me
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: almost out of my mind.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: Find the problem insoluble and so far.
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: An inspector, Let's tribe, I've been expecting a call from you.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: This thing's fair got me beat, mister Rones, Journal Inspector.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: Can I get a drink?
• 4:08
  Speaker 6: Thank you doctor, I'll be glad of one. Well, we've
• 4:11
  Speaker 6: got the coroner's verdict, mister Romes, and much good it
• 4:13
  Speaker 6: does us death by misadventure from unknown causes.
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: You could hardly expect a coroner's jury to say one.
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: Did the Home Office pathollo just confare? My opinion are
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: thank you? Oh yes, miss Jones.
• 4:25
  Speaker 6: All the appearances of death were consistent with the bite
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: of some deadly snake. But did we find any snakes
• 4:30
  Speaker 6: running around? Were there any snake bites on the deceased body?
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: No?
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: While you yourself within a few yards of the man, miss Rones,
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: and you know as well as I do that if
• 4:38
  Speaker 6: a man gets bitten by a snake, he's going to
• 4:40
  Speaker 6: let out a year.
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: I know exactly how you'll feel, the tribe, and have you.
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: Seen the papers Scotland yard dappled by five thousand year
• 4:47
  Speaker 6: old curse death strikes again from Egyptian tomb.
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: You can't blame the journalists as tribe. It's a newspaper
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: editor's dream man Scotland yard's nightmare.
• 4:56
  Speaker 7: Well, ar must be offul.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: The Commissioner wants to see me this afternoon. You can be.
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: Thankful this isn't one of your cases, mister Olmes. I
• 5:03
  Speaker 6: think this one would be too much EASi to you.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: I was seeing the star quite so worked up before.
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: And I can't say that I blame him once. Well,
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: coming on, since the late Lord Cranwoo's funeral is to
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: take place at two o'clock, we might well stroll over
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: to Hanover Square. Perhaps a brisk walkan said to blow
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: the cobwebs from our brains.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: It's the first time I've known you sturn about outside
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: the church at the funeral homes, pearing at the relatives.
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: Of the dead man.
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: I'm anxious to see the new Lord Grandwood as well
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: as his relatives. He was a nephew of the late
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: lords we know, and the family's interest in Egyptology has
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: been inherited by him, along with the title.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: Here I come. I wouldn't have been in his vote
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: for the curse hanging over my head.
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: Here's Lord Carnwood Buttson, how st looking.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Young chef looks, sir, to take more than a family
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: course to get him downe.
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: Who's that coming off? To the pale young fellow in
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: the wheelchair, His.
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: Cousin and mister never Robinson, I believe being hopelessly paralyzed
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: ever since boyhood horse rode down in my hunting.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: Yes, the lines of pain and suffering are very evident
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: in the poor fellow's face.
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: That must be Robinson's older brother, mister Oliver Robinson. Rather,
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: he is set young man just coming out. I assume
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: that's his wife with him, the girl with a black veil.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: It's rather rough on them, all, these curious people scaring
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: coming on homes.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: Let's be off.
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: Heywhell Watson, I've seen more of it. I think your pardon.
• 6:33
  Speaker 7: So I'm cho mister Sherlock Holmes, Yes, whom, My name's
• 6:36
  Speaker 7: Oliver Robertson. Patunant coincidence my.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: Seeing you here.
• 6:39
  Speaker 7: I'd intended sending you a message this evening, a message, Yes,
• 6:42
  Speaker 7: I wanted you to Well, this is Haunted, the place
• 6:46
  Speaker 7: to discussed such matters. I'm staying at my cousin, Lord
• 6:49
  Speaker 7: Campbell's house. I wonder if you'll be good enough to
• 6:51
  Speaker 7: come there this.
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: Evening word nine o'clock be satisfactory, excellent, mister Holmes, Good day, sir,
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: Good day, mister Robinson.
• 7:06
  Speaker 7: Oh, come in, gentlemen, Come in. I don't think you
• 7:09
  Speaker 7: know my wife. Dear may I introduce mister Sherlock Holmes.
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: How do you do? And this is my colleague, doctor Watts.
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: How do you do.
• 7:15
  Speaker 8: I'm very happy to see you here, mister Holmes, and
• 7:17
  Speaker 8: you trow doctor Watson.
• 7:18
  Speaker 7: Mister Holmes, my wife and I, well look at frankly,
• 7:21
  Speaker 7: have asked you to come here because we're afraid, not
• 7:23
  Speaker 7: for ourselves, but for my cousin, the new Lord Cranwood.
• 7:26
  Speaker 8: Neither Oliver nor myself is of a nervous gentleman. If
• 7:30
  Speaker 8: you've read the account of the Cranwood expeditions, you must
• 7:32
  Speaker 8: appreciate my feeling that we are containing against.
• 7:35
  Speaker 7: More than near ill sate, four members of the same
• 7:38
  Speaker 7: small group dying mysteriously or by violence, within a few
• 7:41
  Speaker 7: weeks of each other.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: You who can stop it all? This talk about an
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: ancient Egyptian curse.
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: I don't really know. Tell me, mister Robinson. Does the
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: new Lord Cranwood share your fears?
• 7:52
  Speaker 7: Now forget to say it does not. He laughed when
• 7:54
  Speaker 7: I told him my last your help.
• 7:56
  Speaker 9: Am I interrupting a council of war on me I
• 7:58
  Speaker 9: did permitted to be present.
• 7:59
  Speaker 7: Come in by all means, Neville, Now let me give
• 8:01
  Speaker 7: you a hand with your wheelchair.
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: I can manage, I can manage.
• 8:03
  Speaker 7: My brother, Neville. Gentlemen, mister Sherlock, Holmes and Dr Watson.
• 8:07
  Speaker 9: I assume that the presence of the celebrated sleuth of
• 8:09
  Speaker 9: Baker Street is not unconnected with the curse of the
• 8:12
  Speaker 9: clan world.
• 8:12
  Speaker 8: Please, Neville, don't make fun of us for being frightened
• 8:15
  Speaker 8: as well as Gellick were worrying about, not us, Hilled.
• 8:18
  Speaker 9: I'm enough for you to worry, Oliver. When the curse
• 8:20
  Speaker 9: catches up with Derek, then you be lord Clan with
• 8:22
  Speaker 9: yourself and it will be my turn to start worrying.
• 8:24
  Speaker 9: I gathered, mister Robinson that you are somewhat skeptical regarding
• 8:27
  Speaker 9: the efficacy of Harshafied's five thousand year old curse. My
• 8:30
  Speaker 9: granduncle died of heart failure after the excitement of discovering
• 8:33
  Speaker 9: the tomb. Doctor Duma's death was certainly enough the first
• 8:36
  Speaker 9: case of sandstroke that's ever been heard of in Egypt,
• 8:39
  Speaker 9: and Wilson, who fell overboard from the ship, was notoriously
• 8:41
  Speaker 9: fond of the bottle.
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: Does that answer our question, the ingenious mister Robinson, But
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: it leaves out of the count to your uncle's death
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: in the British Museum the other day.
• 8:48
  Speaker 9: I could offer you a dozen theories to account for that,
• 8:51
  Speaker 9: but I doubt if they'd be sensational enough to please you,
• 8:53
  Speaker 9: mister Holmes.
• 8:54
  Speaker 7: Regardless what my cousin may say, and I know he'll
• 8:56
  Speaker 7: agree with my brother, I wish to engage you to
• 8:58
  Speaker 7: prevent any repetition of the prejudices which already.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: Struck this family.
• 9:01
  Speaker 8: Do you say you will the towns.
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: I will do my best, mister Robinson, to keep Lord
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: Cranwood safe from harm, but without his cooperation I great
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: save here.
• 9:08
  Speaker 7: Simpson said he wanted to see me, Oliver, Oh, I
• 9:10
  Speaker 7: beg your pardon. I didn't know you had gees.
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: I very much want to see you, Derek.
• 9:13
  Speaker 7: This is mister Sherwock Holmes and doctor Watson, my cousin
• 9:16
  Speaker 7: Lord Cranwood. Gentlemen, I'm sorry gentlemen, I have no sympathy
• 9:20
  Speaker 7: with my brother's fears, or do I have seen a
• 9:22
  Speaker 7: necessity for dragging detectives into this matter. I trust you'll
• 9:25
  Speaker 7: excuse me good night. Well you see, mister Holmes, it's
• 9:30
  Speaker 7: just as I told you.
• 9:31
  Speaker 8: I do hope you'll do your best anyway, Mister Holmes,
• 9:33
  Speaker 8: I promise you I shall.
• 9:34
  Speaker 7: Your task won't be made any easier. Mister Holmes, wh
• 9:36
  Speaker 7: my cousin's stubbn't determination to continue working at the museum.
• 9:39
  Speaker 7: He's arranged Professor Halliday to work there at night in
• 9:41
  Speaker 7: the future, beginning tomorrow. He wishes to avoid the stairs
• 9:44
  Speaker 7: of the Curious.
• 9:45
  Speaker 9: Interesting Great Scott, my watch must have stopped nine thirteen,
• 9:48
  Speaker 9: and I haven't as yet fed my snakes.
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: Snakes do you say snakes? Why?
• 9:52
  Speaker 9: Yes, doctor, Since my affliction debars me from digging in
• 9:55
  Speaker 9: Egyptian tombs and similar active pastimes, I amuse myself for
• 9:59
  Speaker 9: the small her battalion. Would you care to see my collection?
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: Good?
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: Heavens know, or some other time perhaps, mister Robinson, Doctor
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: Watson and I must be off good snakes.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: I must say, Holmes, that I find that sinister cripple
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: Neville and his nasty collection of poisonous reptiles.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: Kind is suspicious, and there's.
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: No doubt that Neville's personality has been warped by his afflictions,
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: and the availability of snake venom is of course significant
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: of his motive.
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: Homes of it.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: His motive, the Cranwood title and the Cranwood fortune.
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: There's one thing you've forgotten, Watson. Even if the new
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: Lord Cranwood were to die, it would be Nevill's older
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: brother who wouldn't headit. Oliver and his wife would become
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: Lord and Lady Cranwell, are.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: You trying to tell me that a murderer who'd killed
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: two men would bubble at a third.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: If Cranward dies an Oliver gets the title, he'd be
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: the last barrier Nevill's way.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: I don't like to say at Holmes, but for once
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: you seem to be singly abcuse about the facts of.
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: This case, possibly, Watson, At any rate, I intend that
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: you and I shall be present, although concealed, when Lord
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: Cranwood visits the Egyptian Galleries tomorrow night.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: You mean that you anticipate an attempt upon his.
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: Life, as I have told you on previous occasions, Watson,
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: it's a great mistake to puarize ahead of one's data.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: So don't you do.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: You don't really have put any faith in order to
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: talk about the supernatural curse, do you, Watson? Gosh, no, no,
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: of course not good.
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: Well then I trust that tomorrow night you will arm
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: yourself with your service about that. Yes, Watson, I should
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: like to be in readiness for anything when they encountered
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: the British Museum, supernatural or otherwise.
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: Your place at night?
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: Is it card humanity? Yeah? What do you mean that
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: the relics of the past are all about it? This
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: way through the northern vegetable.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: I say, at homes, what's that thing? Looks like it's coffin?
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: That's what it is. It's good here, we are here,
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: no doubt. Work at that long table. It has the
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: only decent light in the room. And you take that
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: side of the table. Watsn't I'll take this. It makes
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: certain there's no one and nothing concealed.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: You're you're you're not expecting to find a snake anywhere
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: are your homes?
• 12:37
  Speaker 4: I don't expect to find anything. I merely wished to
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: make certain that there is nothing to find the out
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: care for once knock over that little figure and the
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: Egyptians holders at the statues, the answerers, they are buried
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: in the cedar coffins within the Sarkata guy who accompany
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: the dead and to obury their orders.
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: There's an idea of myself. Well there's nothing hidden on
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: this side of the table.
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, there's an excellent spot to conceal ourselves.
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: Oh here, what's that?
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: Great God, what a horrible sight. What sort of a
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: nightmare is that?
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: And appropriate? They're not? It's a statue of how shall
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: feed a ram headed guy? Oh excellent, Watson, Now this
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: will do perfectly. We can see everything in the room
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: from behind him. Just what are you expecting, Homes. I
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: don't know what summit coming Flodranco, because he's taking his
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: papers out of his briefcase.
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: Oh, now that he's turned the lamp up, that can
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: tell it better. He's all like, so fine, he's set
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: him down to work.
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: What's something fun?
• 13:51
  Speaker 8: Quick?
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: He must have painted, said.
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: The anti cooxy. Get in the injection.
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: Hurry, it's two late, Homes. He's dead.
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: In just a moment.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: We'll rejoin Sherlock Holmes and doctor Watson as they endeavor
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: to solve the mystery of the ancient Egyptian curse. Men,
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: if you want to be a success in life, remember
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: that well groomed hair adds a great deal to a
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: man's appearance. And one of the first requisites of handsome,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: healthy looking hair is the hygienic scalp. So start at
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: once and take better care of the hair you've got.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: And if you are smart, you will use Kremmel hair tonic.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: No other hair tonic keeps the hair more neatly in
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: place without looking or feeling greasy. But men, Crammel does
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: lots more than keep hair looking handsome. Kremmel's light oils
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: have a grand lubricating effect on a dry scalp. At
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: the same time, Cremmel removes itchy.
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: Loose dandrus.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: Notice how alive and tingling your scalp feels. And you
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: like the massage Cremmel on your scalp because it's such
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: a clean product.
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: It never feels greasy or sticky.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: And if your hair, like so many men's, is so
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: dry that it breaks and falls when you comb it,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Cremol actually helps condition the hair in that it makes
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: it feel softer, more appliable, and look as if it
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: had somebody to it. So men for handsome, groomed hair
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: and a more hygienic scalp. Use Crammel daily by a
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: bottle of Cremel at any drug store, asked for an
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: application at your biber's k R E M L. Kremmel
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: hair tonic, that famous modern hair tonic which has become
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: such a nationwide favorite.
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: And now back to.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: Sherlock Holmes and doctor Watson at our story.
• 15:36
  Speaker 10: I say, Holmes, if you won't have it in lunch,
• 15:38
  Speaker 10: you would least take a cup of teeth.
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: No, thanker, Watson, I'm not hungry.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: You've been saying that ever since that poor fellow Derrick
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: was killed and at four loved you simply must need homes.
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: My appetite will return when I have a solution for
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: this case, Watson, and not before.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: Well, I've hesitated to say at homes. But if that
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: man had died by any natural means in front of
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: our very eyes, I'm perfectly certain that you would have
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: solved the riddle.
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: Well, if your hypothesis is correct, what's this case is
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: not a matter of the mortal's mind, And that I
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: refused to admit.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: No, we saw him come in, we saw him open
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: his briefcase.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: He turned up the lamp, sat down, don't you wats
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: thank me for what.
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: You've just given me some remarkably interesting food for thought.
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: Oh, come in, why missus Robertson Oa, I beg your pardon.
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: It's Lady Cranwood, now.
• 16:23
  Speaker 8: Isn't It makes me unhappy to say that it is?
• 16:25
  Speaker 8: Doctor Watson?
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: Won to sit down, Lady Grandwood. I've already expressed your
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: husband my deep feeling over the tragedy I failed to prevent.
• 16:31
  Speaker 8: Let me show you, mister Holmes. Neither my husband nor
• 16:34
  Speaker 8: I feel that you were in any way to blame.
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: I appreciate your kindness, Lady Granwood, but I still blame
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: myself for having failed to reach a solution.
• 16:40
  Speaker 8: That is why I've come to see you this morning,
• 16:42
  Speaker 8: mister Holmes. I I hardly know how to say it.
• 16:46
  Speaker 8: My suspicion is such a horrible one. There, my dear,
• 16:51
  Speaker 8: I'm convinced that Oliver isn't deadly peril And for me
• 16:56
  Speaker 8: home brother, did you hear that homes you saw the
• 16:58
  Speaker 8: two Doctor Watson. I've been fighting down a horrible thought,
• 17:01
  Speaker 8: denying it even to myself. That's felt I had to
• 17:04
  Speaker 8: tell you, mister Holmes, Well.
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: Have you any proof, Lady Cranwell, anything definite on which
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: to obease such an accusation only.
• 17:10
  Speaker 8: Never sneers and is jealousy of my husband, horrible snakes.
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: Perhaps you may be able to assist me in confirming
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: or disproving your suspicions of never Lady Cranwell.
• 17:21
  Speaker 8: Anything I can do, mister Holmes, anything.
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: I imagine that the entire family and the servants as well,
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: will all be attending the funeral this afternoon. Of course,
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: then if you are good enough to leave me your
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: key to the heights, I shall take advantage of everyone's
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: absence to go there and investigate one or two possibilities
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: that have occurred to me.
• 17:37
  Speaker 8: Cust Tones, here is the key, Thank.
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: You, and one other thing. I should appreciate it if
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: you would ask you a husband, to meet Watson and
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: myself at the museum tonight about nine o'clock am seum. Yes,
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: I feel that a reenactment of the late Lord Cranwood's
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: death may bring us to a solution.
• 17:54
  Speaker 8: Do you think it's necessary in tone?
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: I think it is vitally necessary.
• 17:58
  Speaker 8: Very well, I will ask my husband to meet you
• 18:00
  Speaker 8: at the museum at night. I'm not going now.
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: Goodbye, goodbye.
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: A woman, No wonder she's overwrought.
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: Come, Watson, you're hat and stick. We have work to do.
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: Cranwith's house you mean, well.
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: I shall go there this afternoon. But meanwhile I want
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: you to take a note to Less start at Scotland
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: Guard and personally seat with that he gets it, and
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: then meet me at nine o'clock tonight at the British Museum.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: Well, I must say, Homes it as long as we
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: had to come back this chamber of horrors.
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: I'm glad that you insisted on a decent amount.
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: Of illumination since we went to concealing ourselves this evening, Watson,
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: I asked Professor Halliday to leave the Egyptian Gallery of
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: fully lighting. How you sit here at large?
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: None of the professes her about homes. I don't suppose
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: the museum will be shaken to its foundations if I
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: smoke the pipe.
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: Ah, that's fair.
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: I'm believing Lord Granwood, believing Lady Granwell, mister Holmes, Dr Watson.
• 19:09
  Speaker 7: I fail to see what purpose will be served by
• 19:11
  Speaker 7: reenacting my cousin's tragic death. But why I'm willing to
• 19:13
  Speaker 7: do anything within my path will offer any hope, I'm sitting.
• 19:16
  Speaker 8: I'm coming with I was, and mister Holmes, I'm afraid
• 19:18
  Speaker 8: every moment I'm away from it.
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: Now, Lord Granwood, let us try in every way to
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: duplicate your cousin's actions of two nights ago. I have
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: here his briefcase, and i'd like you to enter through
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: those doors, carrying the briefcase in your left hand and
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: humming a tune. All right, ready, all right, go ahead.
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: Now put the briefcase down on this table. Take off
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: your hat and coat and put them on the table
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: any particular place you want them. Let us place them
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: on the table as your cousin did. Now open the briefcase.
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: Oh that foresight.
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: What we were back to say?
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: Nothing?
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: You were about to say, Lord Cranwood, that you thought
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: the ingenious adaptation of the Borgia's poison needle had been
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: removed from its mountain the briefcase lock. What on earth
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: you're talking about? I found that fiendishly clever mechanism in
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: your study this afternoon.
• 20:10
  Speaker 8: What do you mean?
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: I mean that this briefcase was fitted with a poisoned needle,
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: which was removed after Derek's death, and which I replaced
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: when I found it at your house this afternoon, lovely.
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: I also found some of the poison, Lord Cranwood, and
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: I greatly fear that when I remounted the needle in
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: the briefcase after my experiments, some of the venom may
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: have remained on it.
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: Plus homes. Shirt bluff.
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: You wouldn't die if you think I'm bluffing, Lord Cranwood.
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: Why is your face going so pale? You're touching your
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: arm with your other hand? Why I mean it was poisoned?
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: My arms swelling is going noble? The bisiship my bust
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: two hands?
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: You kill?
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: All right? I did?
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: Is I'd killed the othersband?
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: You'll never all right the sty here's your confession, a
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: confessional rights. But all you've given us, ind you tell
• 21:02
  Speaker 4: him not a bit of it. He's only collapsed from
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: three homes, the pain in his arm, the symptoms merely
• 21:06
  Speaker 4: a harmless though painful solution which I placed on the poison.
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: Eagles catch her, Watson, she's painting.
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: And Oliver was a fiend.
• 21:24
  Speaker 4: Holmes an absolent fiene, unquestionably, but you must admit that
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: his hiring us is an ingenious attempt at a novel
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: method of removing all possible suspicion from himself, and now
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: he'll pay the penalty for murdering at least two men.
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: A good thing too.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: I'm sure I don't know how you ever found out
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: about the briefcase.
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: Why you gave me the clue, Watson? You yourself, I did.
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: Back in Baker Street when you were talking about the
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: second death, you mentioned that we had seen Lord Cranwood
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: enter the room open his briefcase. Oh he did exactly,
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: But until you mentioned it, the significant fact had escaped
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: me that the only objects common to both deaths and
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: handled by both men was the briefcase.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: Gracious me, well, that solves the mystery of the ancient
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: Egyptian curse?
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: Dares it? Watson? Have you forgotten the three who died
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: previously under such strange circumstances after they had opened harshark
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: It's temple?
• 22:12
  Speaker 6: You will?
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: Do you mean that you really believe in that stupid curse?
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: Those three deaths have still not been explained, and I
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: doubt that they ever will be. There are powers, Watson,
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: higher powers which we poor humans still know nothing
