Sherlock Holmes Radio The Persecuted Millionaire Basil Rathbone, Nigel Bruc · Meine Liebe zu Hörspielen

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Now doctor watch and I want to hear about the
• 0:01
  strange case of the protecuted millionaires.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Well withsa Belle.
• 0:05
  Speaker 3: That adventure began in Baker Street on a gray November
• 0:08
  day at the turn of the century.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Sherlock Holmes and I had just finished our lunch, I remember,
• 0:14
  and were sitting each side of a blazing fire, just
• 0:16
  like you and I are to night. The great man
• 0:19
  his feet Thrush sat before him, was lying back in
• 0:21
  his chair, his long thinged hands locked behind his head,
• 0:25
  and a curved pipe jutting out the corner of his
• 0:28
  mouth was emitting great clouds.
• 0:30
  Speaker 4: Of gray blue smoke. After a few moments, I noticed that.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: He was gazing at my boots.
• 0:37
  Speaker 5: It was very masked a sense, but white Turkish Watson
• 0:41
  boots are English.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: I got him at Latimer's in Oxford.
• 0:44
  Speaker 5: Street, not the boots, the bar. Why the relaxing and
• 0:47
  expensive Turkish bath rather than the invigorating homemade article.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: Because for the last few days I've been having some
• 0:53
  masty twinges of rheumatism. By the way, I'm sure the
• 0:56
  connection between my boots and the Turkish bath is personally
• 0:59
  off theos.
• 1:01
  Speaker 4: I'm completely mystifized.
• 1:03
  Speaker 5: And you're in the habit of doing up your boots
• 1:05
  in a certain way. I observe that on this occasion
• 1:08
  they're tied in a double bowl. You have therefore had
• 1:11
  them off. Who has retied them? A boot maker or
• 1:15
  the boy at the Turkish bath? But your boots are
• 1:17
  nearly new? Then what means the bath? Absurdly simple, isn't it?
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: When you explain it?
• 1:24
  Speaker 5: Come in, yes, missus Hutton, it's a not for.
• 1:28
  Speaker 6: You, mister Holmes. And this says your boy, yes, braught it?
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: Thank you, missus Hutson.
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: Who's it from? H?
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: I swear that only reigning royals it can be as
• 1:38
  presumptuous as an American businessman. Read it for yourself.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: I be at your lodgings at two tomorrow, Be there,
• 1:47
  Sank John V.
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: Harden Be there, h and an.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Extremely elegant fellow. What makes you think that he's an American?
• 1:56
  The use of the initial for the middle name is
• 1:58
  peculiar to that country.
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: A Jorge. It's not at two o'clock now, homes.
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: Yes, let's see what we can find out about the gentleman.
• 2:05
  Where's that Encyclopedia of American biography?
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: Ah?
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: Here he is h H. A. Hanley handsome. Pardon, here's
• 2:15
  our man Watson, John Vincent Harden.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: What does it say about him?
• 2:18
  Speaker 5: Born in Chicago, forty five years old, unmarried, chiefly noted
• 2:24
  for his tremendous tobacco interests and his addiction to fishing.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: It's an odd combination.
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: And this is otter. He made his professional debut as
• 2:32
  a violinist thirty years ago.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: A millionaire musician must be him now, Yes, sir, the
• 2:38
  most impressive broom and fair outside.
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: Then, since my client is a violinist, I think i'll
• 2:43
  welcome him appropriately. Hand me my instrument.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: Willia Chapman a home funny way to start a business interviewer, and.
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: Mister Harden sounds like an aggressed man, and music hath
• 2:58
  charms to sooth.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: Come in, mister Harden to see you, sir.
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: Thank you, missus Hutson. Come in, mister Hardon. I'm sher
• 3:17
  Mack Holmes and this is my friend and colleague, doctor
• 3:19
  w How do you do?
• 3:20
  Speaker 7: How do you do?
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: If we're to do business?
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Mister Holmes by having sight put that violin a way?
• 3:25
  I heard you swiping away as I came up the.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Status, So you you don't care for my friends playing?
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: I don't care for anyone's playing. I love the fiddle.
• 3:35
  Curious I was under being praised. Listen to, mister Holmes.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: I haven't come here to discuss your musical impressions. I've
• 3:41
  come here to talk about my personal safety and my sanity.
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: Then pray talk about it, mister Harden. I'm being persecuted.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Somebody's trying to drive me crazy religious. What form does
• 3:53
  this persecution take, mister Harden, it'll beget about a month
• 3:57
  ago my horse ran away and row and throw me.
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: Maybe it was an accident, maybe not. I've heard of
• 4:04
  burrs under saddles. And then last night something else happened.
• 4:11
  Someone destroyed Methus Mathosla, an old retainer of yours, mister Harden,
• 4:17
  or a pit No.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Mathooslo was the finest, largest, oldest taberne ever.
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: Cost the stop fish. You are, slock Homes. I'm sure
• 4:27
  that the great new moral lies behind us. Please continue,
• 4:30
  mister Harden.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Everything was going fine, mister Holmes, until these persecutions started.
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: Early this year.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: I bought a fine old house in Cavendish Place. I'm engaged,
• 4:41
  me married to Alish Edwards, the Honorable Alish Edwards. She's
• 4:45
  Lord Brentwood's daughter. My life was perfect until I began
• 4:50
  to get these notes. What sort of notes, mister Hardon?
• 4:53
  As they kept turning up in odd places, my coat pockets,
• 4:56
  under my pillows. At night, I found them on the
• 4:58
  oppost in my carriage.
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: You brought these notes with you, of course, all in
• 5:06
  the same handwriting, and all the messages seem to have
• 5:09
  the same fee homes.
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: The first one says you thought he.
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: Had no one to avenge him, didn't you? And this
• 5:18
  one says you murdered him. You will pay for it.
• 5:22
  And this is curious. It will have blood, they say
• 5:26
  blood will have blood. That quotation is from Macbeth.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: Oh that that means the note was written by an Englishman.
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: Not necessarily Watson. It's possible that they've heard of Shakespeare
• 5:35
  in America, you know, mister Harton, all these messages threaten
• 5:40
  your death. Can you think of anyone who might wish
• 5:43
  to kill you? No?
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: I can't. I've never heard anyone much less killed a person.
• 5:49
  The notes don't make any sense if.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: You recognize the handwriting.
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: I've never seen it before in my life. You maketioned
• 5:55
  that your prize Tartan was mutilated. What members of your
• 5:59
  household might have had the opportunity of performing that act
• 6:02
  of vandalism.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Three people my secretary, Margaret Bits, Stephen, my brother, my fiance.
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: They were all at the house last night. There seems
• 6:13
  to be a care pattern of this case, mister Harden,
• 6:15
  I suggest that you will return to your home in
• 6:17
  obtain for me samples of the handwriting of the three
• 6:20
  people you've mentioned. When i've examined those, I shall be
• 6:23
  in a better position to advise you in this matter.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: Holmes, you've spent three hours with the magnifying arsenal samples
• 6:41
  of handwriting when mister.
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: Harden brought back, if you find the clue nothing positive, Watson,
• 6:48
  it's quite curious. The handwriting of the threatening note seems
• 6:51
  to be that of a male with an American education.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Oh why do you say that?
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: Observe this note, you guys, and avenge you never sleep
• 7:01
  with honor.
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: You will notice that honor is spelt without a yule.
• 7:04
  That's the American way, and that means that his fiance
• 7:07
  didn't write them. She might have deliberately spelt it that
• 7:10
  way to remove suspicion from herself. No, I'm afraid these
• 7:13
  samples prove nothing.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: And we're no nearer finding out who is responsible.
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: Well, at least we've ruled out an obvious possibilities. Come in, Yes,
• 7:22
  missus Hudson.
• 7:23
  Speaker 6: It's a telegrap list at homes.
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: Thank you. Yes, better get your coat and hat wotsom
• 7:30
  from mister Harden. Yes, he says, a worse blow has fallen.
• 7:35
  Come at once.
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: On Marcus Baps, mister Harden's secretary.
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: What happened, Miss Babs. We left as soon as we're
• 7:52
  received as wire.
• 7:53
  Speaker 6: I don't know what happened, mister Holmes, but I'm terribly worried.
• 7:57
  He rushed out here and dictated that telegram and then
• 8:00
  went back and locked himself in the study. He says
• 8:03
  he'll see no one but too Hello Margaret, Oh, Stephen,
• 8:07
  he's startling.
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: It's the matter. Do you think I was listening at
• 8:09
  the keyhole? Introduced me to our visitors watching.
• 8:13
  Speaker 6: This is Stephen, mister Harden's brother, mister Sherlock Holmes, and
• 8:17
  doctor Watson.
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: Sherlock Holmes and his Freenda I've heard about you. Don't
• 8:22
  tell me brother John is falling foul of the law
• 8:25
  and that he needs its protection.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Ifea, don't be too sure.
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: I'm thinking of taking him to court myself on a
• 8:31
  charge of woman stealing.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: Your brother or kidnapped us Great Scott.
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: No, no, doctor Watson, it's perfectly legal. It's just that
• 8:38
  I saw Alsia Edwards first. But then, of course I
• 8:41
  don't control the hardened millions.
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: Let's go to the study, shall we, mister Holmes, excellent dear.
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: Perhaps we'll see you later. So perhaps, and don't take
• 8:50
  John too seriously.
• 8:52
  Speaker 6: He's hateful, always making fun of John, his brother, and
• 8:57
  yet Stephen's never done a day's work in his life.
• 9:01
  This is the door to the study, and mister Holmes
• 9:05
  and doctor Watson are here.
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: Come in.
• 9:12
  Speaker 6: Thank you mother, How see you gentlemen later?
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: What form did the new attack takes? Mister harton?
• 9:19
  Speaker 7: This time?
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: It's set.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: My safe was rifled last night, an extremely valuable document.
• 9:25
  It was the key to my agreement with the British
• 9:27
  Tobacco Trust. The loss of the paper represent a million
• 9:30
  dollars to me. That isn't what upsets me. Most money
• 9:34
  I can afford to lose, but my sanity is more valuable.
• 9:38
  In the safe I found another.
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: Note homes May I see peers here? Mmm? The coffin
• 9:46
  is made. The funeral parlor is ready, the time is ripe.
• 9:50
  The proking raven below for a them writing message, and
• 9:54
  once again observed the odd combination of Shakespeare and American idiom.
• 9:59
  Funeral parlor is what we refer to as an undertaker's,
• 10:02
  and the croaking raven comes from Hamlet Holmes.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: I'm not awake, man, but I'm frightened. You've got to
• 10:09
  protect me. I shall do my best.
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: Mister Harden, who was here last night, my secretary of
• 10:15
  my rebate, my fiancee. She went back to London this morning.
• 10:20
  I make your brother Stephen just now. I noticed that
• 10:23
  he was carrying a release. Was he leaving the house
• 10:26
  or returning to it? Returning? He went out of town
• 10:29
  last night, and that ruled him out, not until we
• 10:32
  investigated that by Watson. Mister Harden, I'm a constant and
• 10:37
  thorough reader of the times. The engagement of a Pierre's
• 10:40
  daughter to a prominent American would be striking news, and
• 10:44
  yet I've read nothing about it.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: We're announcing it formerly to morrow. I'm giving a party
• 10:50
  at clarity Is to celebrate the event.
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: Then I think it would be a wise precaution if
• 10:54
  doctor Watson and I attended that party I was.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: About to suggest the same thing, Holmes. I need to
• 11:00
  have men about me, I can trust.
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: I think this is a deliberate plata drive me Mass Holmes,
• 11:17
  Doctor Watson, I want you to meet my fiance, Miss
• 11:20
  Alicia Edwards. Alicia, my dear, Yes, John, I want to
• 11:25
  introduce mister Sherlock Holmes and doctor Wat.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: How are you doing? May I congratulate you on your engagement?
• 11:32
  Speaker 5: Yes, indeed, are you a hearing between the old world
• 11:35
  and when you is them encouraging sign of the time.
• 11:37
  Speaker 6: I wish you could convince the Paul that mister Holmes,
• 11:40
  whenever he needs John, he always behaves. He expected him
• 11:44
  to be wearing feathers and calling and helping knife.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: That's very funny.
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: I don't find it. So excuse me. I want to
• 11:54
  talk to the office Journey now.
• 11:57
  Speaker 6: I don't test John again. He's ridiculous. Please thank you.
• 12:01
  Americans are really rather touching.
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: And yet you're going to marry one Papas'.
• 12:06
  Speaker 6: Stakes to read, not a lot of money. And that's
• 12:08
  the comodity with this John. Things round out. I think
• 12:12
  if you understand me.
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: Mister Home, I'm sure I do. Personally, I may say
• 12:17
  that I'm always glad to meet an American. I'm one
• 12:20
  of those who believes that the folly of a monas
• 12:22
  can be blundering of a minister, and found one years
• 12:25
  could not now stand between two men in the homes.
• 12:28
  Speaker 6: I find you comfort, insult.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: Goodbye, Oh my soul, what an unpleasant half. The young woman.
• 12:36
  She's obviously a hardened.
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: His money, obviously, though I don't think she has an
• 12:41
  aversion to all Americans.
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: Oh why do you say that?
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: She is being dancing with mister Hardon's brother's season most
• 12:48
  of the evenings. At this moment he joined at the
• 12:50
  door and they're beating together.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: God, you think the seed?
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: Hello, what's happening up there.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: In the violinist? I won't take a look. Look, he
• 13:05
  snatched the instrument out of his hand. Get out of here.
• 13:10
  I wait.
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: Now, I tell you God's way.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: Home. He hitting like a man, and he's rushing after
• 13:20
  the musician and brandishing the violiness if he if he's
• 13:22
  gonna brain him with it?
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: Yes, watching that quarrel with a violinist was not a
• 13:27
  totally same act. If the anonymous correspondence motive is to
• 13:32
  undermine Harden's wagons, he may be succeeded.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: But who has a motive might be the brother Stephen.
• 13:38
  He's off jealous of the girl and he probably next
• 13:40
  in nine five minutes. But I checked his.
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: Annibi the last night he was out of town.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: What's the devil's on now? O? O's for ao?
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: Here amaster harden for a cow a? What's wrong for Solicia?
• 13:57
  I found her in the car he's been in just
• 14:11
  a moment.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: We'll find out what happens next in the strange case
• 14:14
  of a persecuted millionaire. Hair specialists constantly advise us to
• 14:19
  take better care of the hair we've got, and men
• 14:22
  don't forget that. If you want your hair handsome and
• 14:25
  healthy looking, one of the first requirements.
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: Is a hygienic scalp.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: So why settle for just any hair dressing when you
• 14:31
  can enjoy the extra advantages of this highly specialized cremal
• 14:34
  hair TIMEIC.
• 14:36
  Speaker 5: Cremmel contains a unique.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Combination of hair grooming ingredients which is found in no
• 14:40
  other hair preparation. It keeps hair attractively groomed at all times,
• 14:44
  looking so neat and orderly. But Cremmel does lots more
• 14:48
  than keep hair looking handsome. A chremo massage stimulates circulation
• 14:52
  right in the surface of your stealth and leaves your
• 14:55
  scalp feeling so alive and invigorated, as fresh as a daisy.
• 14:59
  At the same time, Kremmel removes dander plates. It's excellent
• 15:03
  to lubricate a dry scalp. And if your hair is
• 15:05
  so dry that it breaks and falls when you call it,
• 15:08
  Cremel actually helps condition the hair in that it makes
• 15:11
  it feel softer, more pliable. So men, take better care
• 15:15
  of the hair you've got. Buy a bottle of Cremel
• 15:18
  at any drug counter, ask for an application at your barbershop.
• 15:22
  Use Kremmel daily for better groomed hairs. For a more
• 15:25
  hygienic scalp.
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: K R E. M. L.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: Kremmel Hair. Tonic Well got to watch him. So the
• 15:40
  Honorable Alicia Edwards had been strangled at her engagement party.
• 15:44
  What happened next?
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: I tried first, said mister bellin founds. The girl was
• 15:48
  not dead.
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: We rushed to the hospitals and a few hours later
• 15:51
  we were.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: Able to talk to her. But we found that you
• 15:55
  gives no clue. When we left the room, was waiting
• 16:00
  person in the corridor.
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: How is she?
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: Is she going to be all right, But don't.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Why mister Harden. She'll be all right, but she's she
• 16:07
  had a very narrow escape.
• 16:09
  Speaker 7: But why attack her?
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: Why not me? The pattern becomes increasingly claire. Mister Harden.
• 16:14
  Your enemy has struck at your fishing, your business, now
• 16:18
  at your chiance, so every blow is at your wealth
• 16:21
  and position and my sanity. Mister Holmes, you've got to
• 16:24
  find out who's behind all this. On the occasion of
• 16:26
  the mutilation of the fish, three people have the opportunity.
• 16:30
  Your brother Stephen is clear on the second attack, and
• 16:32
  on this last one, I think we may reasonably assume
• 16:35
  that your fance did not strangle her.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: So's our wager, my medical reputation on that fact.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: And that means that only one person who was present
• 16:42
  on all three occasions was.
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: No, you can't mean your secretary, mister Bates. Where is
• 16:48
  she in the waiting room? Splendid? Then doctor Watson and
• 16:52
  I will take her back to Baker Street. I have
• 16:55
  an idea that she can be of invaluable help to.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: Us a little montem space.
• 17:10
  Speaker 6: No, thank you, doctor Watson.
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: Then please go on with your story.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: As I was.
• 17:14
  Speaker 6: Saying, mister Holmes, I've known mister Harden. All my life
• 17:18
  my father was the Hardened coachman, and as I grew up,
• 17:22
  I thought John Vincent Harden was the most wonderful man.
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: In the world.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: Well, I imagine that he was quite different then my death.
• 17:29
  Speaker 6: Very different. He was young and romantic, and he loved music.
• 17:34
  He took violin lessons, and it turned out that he
• 17:36
  was a prodigy.
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: I understand that he made his professional debut at the
• 17:39
  age of thirteen.
• 17:40
  Speaker 6: Yes, mister Holmes, I was only a little girl then,
• 17:44
  But he used to tell me that he wasn't John
• 17:47
  Vincent Hardened, the heir to the tobacco, the lean. He
• 17:50
  was Giovanni Vincenti, the great.
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: Violinist, Giovanni Vincenti odd pray continuous dates.
• 17:58
  Speaker 6: For five years. It seemed that he would be a
• 18:00
  great musician. Then on his eighteenth birthday, his father gave
• 18:05
  him a lecture on his family obligation, told him that
• 18:09
  it was his duty to go into the business.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: John broke his violin across.
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: His knee, mister Holmes, and he's never played said mistake.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: I don't need to be a detective to reduce that
• 18:21
  you love him.
• 18:23
  Speaker 6: Of course I do, or at least I loved you
• 18:28
  as it instanty. Then maybe he's still there somehow somewhere, of.
• 18:35
  Speaker 5: Course, or he's been a legiot, a nun scol What
• 18:38
  do you mean home? The case is solved, comers Bates.
• 18:40
  When must return to mister Hartn as fast as we can.
• 18:43
  I only hope we're not too late.
• 18:54
  Speaker 6: But why doesn't he answer?
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: The survey said he lost himself in.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: The study again, Jew's lot.
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: I don't like them this, come on, watch, we'll break
• 19:01
  it in on more.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: There's an a half of the time in house.
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: If they please leave us, my friends and doctor. He'll
• 19:12
  take care of him. She's only wounded.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: Yes, just raise his scout, okay, Kevin, I'll be waiting outside.
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: This is attempted suicide.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: They finally succeeded in driving mad.
• 19:25
  Speaker 5: Did they read this note lying here? It's in the
• 19:28
  same handwriting as the other messages.
• 19:30
  Speaker 7: I might try to fool another detective, but doc you,
• 19:33
  mister Sherlock Holmes, I admit I shut John Simpson Harden.
• 19:37
  I'm sure you'll have no difficult to discovering high escape from.
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: A locked room. Good lord, you will observe.
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: That the note was written and blotted on this desk Watson,
• 19:47
  I'll see you to getting mister Harden to bed and
• 19:49
  summoning his own doctor. I want you to return to
• 19:51
  Baker Street. Baker Street, why tho all the cases solved?
• 19:54
  I have some heavy thinking to do and I must
• 19:57
  do it here. So be a good fellow and go
• 19:59
  back to our lodging is. Get me two ounces of
• 20:00
  shank tobacco and my violin. How are you feeling now,
• 20:17
  mister Houghton, we calls, did I'm all right?
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: He was still can't remember anything.
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: Sir No.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: I felt half out of my mind since that attack
• 20:27
  was made of militia.
• 20:29
  Speaker 7: I told me should be all right.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: I do faintly remember coming home from the hospital and
• 20:35
  blocking myself in the study.
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: The rest is a blank. What did happen, mister Holmes,
• 20:44
  And I'll give you the complete answer very shortly, mister Houghton,
• 20:47
  Colin Watson, you.
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: Know well, try and rest. Mister Harten, You've been through
• 20:51
  quite an ordeal outside.
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: I'm just out sry.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: Home.
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: You left your violin and Harden's room. Did you mean
• 21:04
  to I meant to him. And in the meanwhile, we
• 21:08
  must talk more seriously to miss Bates.
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: She's down here in the sitting room.
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: Is and brother Stephens first know the good news, Margaret
• 21:18
  and may Win. Why what the good news is, Sir?
• 21:20
  Didn't see you fellas coming down the stairs. Well it
• 21:23
  is no reason why you shouldn't hear it too. I've
• 21:26
  just come from the hospital. Alicia's broken off her engagement
• 21:28
  to John. She's going to marry me. Indeed, my congratulations.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: Yes, sir, but I suggest you don't tell your brother
• 21:35
  the news. He's a very sick man.
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: I won't now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to celebrate.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: Miss Sparkling. You're a Miss Bates.
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: I can see that you're just as excited as Stephen's is.
• 21:46
  Speaker 6: Of course I am, But tell me that to Holmes.
• 21:49
  Have you found out who attacked John?
• 21:51
  Speaker 5: Yes, Miss Bates, at last, I know the name of
• 21:53
  mister John Vincent Harden's enemy. On the incident of the
• 21:57
  mutilated fish, you or Stephen or Alicia might have been guilty.
• 22:02
  On the stolen document, you or Alysia, and on the
• 22:06
  attack on this lady you or Stephen, which seemed to
• 22:10
  leave only you.
• 22:11
  Speaker 6: But I was having tea with both of you in
• 22:13
  Baker Street when John was shot precisely.
• 22:16
  Speaker 5: As perfect in alibi as I've ever known, and no
• 22:18
  one person was responsible, there must have been accomplishing Noah Watson.
• 22:23
  Remember another fact, The note supposedly written after the attempted
• 22:27
  murder was blotted at the very desk which the wounded
• 22:29
  man was slumped over. Isn't it clear, franklin Er, the
• 22:33
  persecutor and the would be murderer of John Vinson Harden
• 22:36
  is Giovanni Vincenti, but.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: Tauana and the same man mismates ter, Sir.
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: They were the same man. But Harden forced the dominant
• 22:45
  part of his character into annihilation when he destroyed his violin.
• 22:49
  He thought he had destroyed Giovanna Vincenti, that his alter
• 22:52
  ego was still dormant, giess, And after the shock of
• 22:55
  the writing accident in Rotten Row, Giovanni Vincenti emerged hunting
• 22:59
  for revenge.
• 23:00
  Speaker 6: You mean poor John really has a dual personality to home.
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: Yes, my dear. No one person seemed to have the
• 23:08
  opportunity of committing all the attacks, But we left one
• 23:11
  person off our list, John vincent Hardening.
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: Why homes and sake?
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: Why Jiovan Evincenti struck at the fish, the document and
• 23:20
  at the fiance. All symbols of what Hardened had gained
• 23:24
  for himself. Finally, he attacked Harden's.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: Life, goodness to homes.
• 23:30
  Speaker 6: What will happen now is out of his mind that they.
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: Won't send into an asylum, will be?
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: I think not, this bates. There's a possibility that this
• 23:39
  second shark, this self inflicted wound on the skull, may
• 23:43
  cure him. Don't you agree, Watson?
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: Yes, I do.
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: Except the possible, there'll be a complete reintegration of personality.
• 23:51
  Speaker 6: Listen, it's John and he hasn't touched the violent brages,
• 23:56
  so that's.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: Why you left your violin in his room.
• 23:59
  Speaker 5: Home. Now, Giovanni Vincenti and John Vincent Harden are again
• 24:05
  one man, one whole and sound man. I trust he
• 24:10
  may create a new life for himself, and I'm convinced
• 24:14
  that he has here the woman who will help him.
