  Speaker 5: Remember her name, Harry Satan.
• 15:32
  Speaker 8: So he's such a lovable jack, I'd.
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: Be a little more inclined to go along with you
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: on that if he were a little less inclined to
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: hiding things.
• 15:41
  Speaker 8: You think he's holding out something about Mary.
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: I'm sure he would tell me. Did you go through
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: her belongings?
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: Oh?
• 15:48
  Speaker 9: Why, I wouldn't dream of such a thing. Besides, she
• 15:50
  Speaker 9: doesn't have very much to go through.
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: I don't take a look myself later. Did you take
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: anything with her?
• 15:56
  Speaker 8: Not so much as a toothbrush, not even a crush? Yes,
• 16:02
  Speaker 8: come on, what happened, Harry?
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: Who shan't you? Harry?
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: I don't know. I didn't see came through the window.
• 16:17
  Speaker 10: See get a doctor, No, no doctor, peal about Mary?
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: Yes, if you don't, If you don't find it, go
• 16:30
  Speaker 5: kill who?
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: Why? Look?
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: I know I'm killing I don't know why.
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: But she's a good kid.
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: Only one mistake, only one mistake?
• 16:40
  Speaker 10: Ship?
• 16:41
  Speaker 9: Oh, oh, Harry, Oh, Harry, this temper, he's dead. Our
• 17:06
  Speaker 9: room is down the middle of the hall, mister Templer,
• 17:08
  Speaker 9: this way, I see, thank you. It's a real cheesy hotel.
• 17:13
  Speaker 9: But even sharing a room, Mary and I could just
• 17:15
  Speaker 9: barely a wood.
• 17:16
  Speaker 8: Oh here we are. Well, at least the door works.
• 17:21
  Speaker 8: It's what mister Chandler.
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: Just look, you haven't been entertaining any tornadoes.
• 17:27
  Speaker 9: Like the head well, I never who could have done
• 17:30
  Speaker 9: such a thing? Who could have torn our room apart
• 17:32
  Speaker 9: like this?
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: That? It was looking for something? Obviously? What that is?
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: Point number one? Point number two is did he find it?
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: Don't know what's Oh that's.
• 17:44
  Speaker 8: Mary's first day kid, you know Bannage's eyes on, and
• 17:47
  Speaker 8: heaven knows what else.
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: It's rather professional looking, wouldn't you say?
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: Uh huh?
• 17:51
  Speaker 9: Mary never went traveling anywhere without it? Why anytime any
• 17:55
  Speaker 9: of us girls cut a singingnail too close so got
• 17:57
  Speaker 9: a little burned from mc curly eye, was Mary nacking
• 18:01
  Speaker 9: like Florence Nightingale?
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: I see?
• 18:03
  Speaker 8: Harry used to Poor Harry, He.
• 18:06
  Speaker 9: Used to say, having Mary with the orchestra was like
• 18:09
  Speaker 9: having a doctor in that.
• 18:10
  Speaker 8: You aren't listening?
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: Is there this Mary?
• 18:13
  Speaker 8: Uh huh?
• 18:14
  Speaker 9: That's me on the left. Midge took it last month.
• 18:18
  Speaker 9: Oh look at this room? What on earth could anyone
• 18:21
  Speaker 9: have been looking for in here?
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: I wish I knew, Mabel, but I do know this,
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: whatever it was, he didn't find it, you can tell.
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: But how the wallpaper? See how I ripped it off
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: in places, places that make no sense because there's no
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: possible hiding place behind where the paper was.
• 18:36
  Speaker 11: But so what?
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: It was an act of frustration, not finding what he
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: was after in any of the probable places he looked to,
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: lost his head and started on the improbable one.
• 18:45
  Speaker 9: And began to tear down the walls. Oh, I'd like
• 18:48
  Speaker 9: to get my hands on him, just for one little minute.
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: So di, But not because of the wallpaper. Who what
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: he did to Harry? Come on, let's get out of here.
• 18:57
  Speaker 8: Yes, this room is just altogether too depressed.
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: Wait a minute, maybe is this Mary's trombone? Ha? Huh?
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: They come in two pieces, don't they. The sliding pad
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: can be slid right off the blowing barton, What is it?
• 19:12
  Speaker 8: Did you find something, mister Temple?
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: I'll let you know soon as I work whatever it
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: is out of there? We are they there rolled up? Well,
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: i'll be X ray pictures.
• 19:25
  Speaker 10: Now.
• 19:26
  Speaker 8: Why would Mary have X ray pictures rolled up in
• 19:28
  Speaker 8: her trombone?
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: Because she figured and rightly it seems that her trombone
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: would be the one place whoever was looking for them
• 19:34
  Speaker 4: wouldn't look.
• 19:35
  Speaker 8: But I don't why.
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: Should anyone just as puzzled as you are.
• 19:42
  Speaker 8: Mister Temple, you could never be well.
• 19:55
  Speaker 11: Of course, I don't know all the registered nurses in town,
• 19:57
  Speaker 11: mister Temple, but I do have a large agency and
• 20:00
  Speaker 11: a rather good memory.
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: And the name Mary Miller rings no bells, missus oyerhunt.
• 20:05
  Speaker 11: I'm sorry, I'd like to help you.
• 20:07
  Speaker 8: Perhaps one of the.
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: Other nurses agency, perhaps, or perhaps Mary Miller was known
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: as something else, or perhaps she wasn't a nurse at all.
• 20:16
  Speaker 8: Oh you're not sure then that she WoT?
• 20:18
  Speaker 10: No.
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: I looked into a box and found a hunch ha
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: bahys a first aid kid, one that seemed just a
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: trifle to elaborate for a simple citizen to own. Oh,
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: I see, you're sure that the snapshot doesn't.
• 20:32
  Speaker 11: No, doesn't look like any of the nurses at this age.
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: Hmm, I wonder would you mind wondering out loud? Please?
• 20:42
  Speaker 11: Of course her hair was dark. If I could just
• 20:45
  Speaker 11: see this girl as a brunette.
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: Oh that's easy. Why go to Antoine's when you have
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: templar the picture please and that soft pencil. While I
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: am mademoiselle is brunette, Now why it is?
• 21:01
  Speaker 8: It's Mary Webster.
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: You say that name with an exclamation point after.
• 21:05
  Speaker 11: It, several exclamation points go on. She was doctor Burton's nurse,
• 21:10
  Speaker 11: and so you don't recall doctor Burton, who was quite notorious.
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: What did you do flunk his cigarette tast He had some.
• 21:18
  Speaker 11: Rather interesting patients, mister templar, the underworlds, hoodlums and gangsters.
• 21:24
  Speaker 11: Uh oh, and a remarkable if rather specialized specialty bullets
• 21:29
  Speaker 11: that's right, gunshot wounds, wounds caused by hand grenades, knifings.
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: And he just never bothered to report any of his
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: patient's battle wounds to the police as required by law.
• 21:39
  Speaker 11: Huh, that's right. He died in prison shortly after his conviction.
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: And Mary uh Miller or Webster's the case, may be.
• 21:46
  Speaker 11: Also sent to prison, but with a light sentence. And
• 21:49
  Speaker 11: of course her license was revoked. She had to give
• 21:51
  Speaker 11: up nursing when she got out, and.
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: So she became a trombone player and a collector.
• 21:57
  Speaker 11: Oh what does she collect, mister temple.
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: X ray pictures, old and rare ones. It sounds like
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: a dull hobby, I admit, but I think there's money
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: in it. Well, Raymond.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: Very interesting X ray plate, Simon. But what am I
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: supposed to do about him?
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: Just tell me about them, doctor Simon.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: I'm a physician employed by the office of the City
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: Medical Examiner. You know I'm not allowed to give private consultations.
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: Here.
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: I think this consultation might develop into a rather public one.
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: It's a riddle you're making. I'm trying to make answers,
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: my friend, not riddles very well.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: There are pictures of a shin bowne.
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: That's all. That's all.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: Well, slightly different sort of a shinbone. You see right here,
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: this darker portion through here.
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: M h.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: It's a silver plate and evidently was in an accident of.
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: St or he was shot.
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, a bullet would just about break off that
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: amount of bone. He might have been shot any hourish
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: physician had placed the missing bone of the silver blade.
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: That's all it's done all the time. Have you done
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: any autopsis around here lately on a body with a
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: silver shinbone? Doctor?
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: Now, what are you trying to find out? Simon?
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: What about Frenchy lassal LaSalle? I did that out of
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: see myself. No silk Lates. Then it wasn't LaSalle. They
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: buried this morning?
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: What simon you crazy?
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: That body they dragged out of the river, checked up
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: his lacelle on at least a dozen points planted points.
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: The body was dressed up to give that impression before
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: it was dumped into the river. Ah, it's simple enough.
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: French's body comes out of the river and into a
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: grave and the police closed the files on frenchship. The
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: heat is off and Lassal beats the chair ared.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: How are you now that these X ray pictures show
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: LaSalle shinborn?
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: A killer named Jake Florio, who used to be French's
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: right arm, told me not to go looking for a
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: missing girl named Mary Miller.
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: M either you have too much imagination or I don't
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: have enough.
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: Mary worked for the doctor who did the operation on
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: this leg. She's probably one of the few living persons
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: who knows that LaSalle has a silver plate to his shin,
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: and she had the X rays to prove it. So
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: so if the man buried today in French in Nassau's
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: bad name didn't have a silver plate in his leg.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: Then this smeller girl had some pretty important information.
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: Why didn't she come tours with it?
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: Because she wanted more than to be paid off with
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: a with a thank you. She isn't that good a citizen.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: You think she tried to shake down Lasel.
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: And I think Lasan refused to shake is probably at
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: this very moment twisting her arm, trying to make her
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: tell where these pictures are.
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: I can see where he'd consider them important.
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: They're the only thing in this world that can prove
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: he's still alive and still a candidate for the electric chair. Yes,
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: Mabel and me, Hello girls. It's always nice to welcome
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: a couple of angels.
• 25:22
  Speaker 8: Mister Templer. We would like to know what, if anything,
• 25:25
  Speaker 8: you are doing.
• 25:26
  Speaker 7: We insist on knowing.
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: As a matter of fact, I was reading a book.
• 25:30
  Speaker 8: Reading a book, mister Templer.
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: It's called in one head and out the other, very amusing,
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: full of laughs.
• 25:37
  Speaker 9: You can laugh at a time like this, with poor
• 25:40
  Speaker 9: Mary's still among the missy and.
• 25:42
  Speaker 8: Poor Harry among the murders. We shouldn't you be out looking.
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: That's exactly what I would be doing if I went
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: at home, waiting, waiting for what. I expect that at
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: any moment the doorbell will ring and a man named
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: Jake Flourio will be among us.
• 25:56
  Speaker 8: For what may I ask?
• 25:59
  Speaker 9: Just to kill me, mister Templer at a time like
• 26:02
  Speaker 9: I said, you kill you, mister.
• 26:05
  Speaker 8: Templor, No, don't lame you.
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: I'll do my best.
• 26:08
  Speaker 8: But why should anybody want to kill you for.
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: The same reason he killed Harry Satan. I know too
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: much about Mary Miller, and knowing too much about Mary,
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: he's afraid might lead me to knowing just enough about
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: FRENCHI lassa.
• 26:21
  Speaker 8: I don't understand you.
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: It's healthier that.
• 26:24
  Speaker 7: Way, mister Templar. Are you sure that this florial person
• 26:27
  Speaker 7: is coming?
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: Not positive? But it figures that he should.
• 26:30
  Speaker 8: But shouldn't you do something to protect yourself?
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: I have Oh you get in the other room, do
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: as I say?
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: All right?
• 26:40
  Speaker 8: Come on me?
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: Yes, Al Graham Hello, saying why.
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: It isn't a telegram at all. It's Jake Frio and
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: I'll bet you've come to shoot me inside saying come on,
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: come on. Anything to oblige a man with a thirty eight.
• 27:01
  Speaker 10: I warned you knock a poke around, saying you know
• 27:03
  Speaker 10: what happens the smart guys who can't take a suggestion.
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: Well, simon, did they do it?
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: Is?
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: He told me to?
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: The operation is a complete success, doctor, And now let's
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: bring him back to life for a while, so he
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: can tell us where French and ourselves hiding. I'm all right,
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: I'm all right, doctor. I'd like you to meet a
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: couple of angels. How do you do?
• 27:28
  Speaker 10: Hello?
• 27:29
  Speaker 8: Teenage?
• 27:30
  Speaker 12: He's cute, he is I've never noticed before, Simon, who's there?
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: Delivery?
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: You've got that all the part mont, I'm not expecting anything.
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: I guess mister Floria must have given us the wrong address.
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: Where are you from?
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: Made laboratories have got some X ray pictures here to
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: bring their YEA, but I guess I got the wrong address,
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: So I'll just.
• 28:05
  Speaker 5: Be wait a minute. Maybe I have to take a
• 28:08
  Speaker 5: look at that. All right, now, end in that envelope.
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: You Hello, I'm coming in. Have a nice snaplace, huh.
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: And stop worrying about those old X ray pictures. You'll
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: you'll probably be needing some brand new ones when you
• 28:35
  Speaker 4: wake up. A. So this is your room, miss Miller.
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: Don't worry. I'll n't tell you. But before I remove
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: the gag from your mouth and give you a chance
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: to talk back, I want you to listen to a
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: little lecture I've prepared concerning the folly of trying to
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: blackmail gangster now to begin with when a ruthless filler

• 28:56

• 29:32
  Speaker 4: Benny Rubin. This is Dom Conway inviting you to join
• 29:35
  Speaker 4: us again next week at the same time for another
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: exciting adventure of the Saint. Good Night.
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: The script of The Saint was written by Michael Tramon.
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: The Saint, based on characters created by Leslie Choppers, is
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: of James L. Safia production and is directed by Helen Might.
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: Tom Conway is soon to be seen in Warner Brothers
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: production of Painting the Clouds with Sunshine. All you Saint
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: fans will be glad to know that the Saint comic
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: books are on sale.
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: At all news stands. Here an answer is don stand.
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: This is NBC, the National Broadcasting Company.
• 31:19
  Speaker 13: Fuck, this is Andrew Ryans with OTR Westerns Dot com,
• 31:24
  Speaker 13: where we stream live old time Radio Westerns twenty four
• 31:27
  Speaker 13: hours a day, seven days a week, with a special twist,
• 31:31
  Speaker 13: you select the tracks that get to be played. We've
• 31:34
  Speaker 13: got a thousand different episodes from shows like Gunsmoke, Tales
• 31:38
  Speaker 13: of the Texas Rangers, Escape, Genautry, and many more. Come
• 31:42
  Speaker 13: check us out at OTR Westerns dot com slash live.
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: Again.
• 31:46
  Speaker 13: That's OTR Westerns dot com slash live. You're listening to
• 31:50
  Speaker 13: the great detectives of Old Time Radio with Adam Graham.
• 31:53
  Speaker 13: And now let's get back into the show.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: Welcome back.
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: Well.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: This actually, of all the Tom Conway stories so far,
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: this has been my favorite because this really felt like
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: this was written to fit his unique style and his
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: unique take on the character, which is different from Bencent Price's.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: But it's still played very well here, with a lot
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: of great moments and great lines and a very good
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: and involved mystery. I did think the lecture about why
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: not to blackmail gangsters was something we could have used
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: to hear, or at least characters and other detective shows
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: could could stand here. The doctor inserting the case of
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: knocking out the gunman was probably more of a case
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: of not introducing an extra character when you didn't have to.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: But other than that, a very solid and enjoyable episode
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: that really shows the strengths of Tom Conway as an actor.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: Over on Facebook, John wrote regarding the first episode with
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: Simon Templar or with Tom Conway as Simon Templar, someone
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: got some Sherlock in my saint. Of course, Tom Conway
• 33:18
