1:15
Dler The Silent Queen Matter, Parts three and four from Hollywood. It's time
1:22
now for Johnny Dellar. Hi you boy, Vic Carson and Hartford say thanks
1:30
for really opening up out there on the coast. Huh so your other papers.
1:34
Quite a surprise learning that Mavis Gail was married to that Penny arcade operator
1:38
Bonnie Slade. She'd been married to Tom Sandford, You're silent film actor.
1:42
Only it turns out he and Slay are the same man. Really something,
1:45
isn't it. Yeah, Well, here Sandford's supposed to be dead for twenty
1:49
seven years, and all the time he's living down there in Ocean Park.
1:52
And she didn't know about it, so she said, only somebody saw her
1:55
hanging around the arcade two nights before Slade's murder. Vick, what well?
2:00
What does she have to say about that? She wasn't around when the police
2:01
went out to her place a little while ago. No one knows where she
2:05
is. Look, have you been able to get an angle on those photographs
2:07
of hers in slave's apartment? Why the killer drew those question marks over?
2:10
No? And we haven't found out why the killer copped a half a dozen
2:15
of the photos either photographs of whope? How should I know they're gone?
2:17
Oh? Maybe they're important. No. Look, I'm on the trail of
2:20
a carriacter. Call the preacher if I find him, I may find some
2:23
answers. Well, according to the papers, Johnny, are you sore about
2:27
something? Yeah, Vick, I'm sore. Better read my report tonight and
2:38
every weekday night. Bob Bailey in the Transcribed Adventures of the Man with the

State Unity Life Home Office, Hartford, Connecticut. Assignment The Silent Queen Matter
3:13
expense account continued Item nine fifty five cents one scotch and soda at a local
3:24
pub. This was right after I'd talked with you, Vic. Yeah,
3:30
I guess I was a little sore. Maybe it was because of that phone
3:34
call earlier from Sergeant McKay when he told me that Old Times screen star Mayves
3:38
Gale had been seen hanging around the arcade where Slade was murdered. Okay,
3:44
so Mayvis Glee was in line to receive twenty five thousand dollars as the beneficiary
3:47
of Slade's insurance policy. I suppose he figured I was itching to get something
3:52
on her so the insurance company wouldn't have to pay off. I downed the
3:55
rest of my drink and walked over to the penny arcade in the Ocean Park
3:59
Amusement. So, Hi, you back again? Yeah, I'm back again,
4:04
Twilight. If you're looking for sergeant McKay, you sure about what you
4:08
told him that you saw Mavas Scale in here seven months ago. I'm sure
4:13
recognize her picture in the morning paper. Well, you didn't volunteer this information
4:16
of McKay until this afternoon. I sleep late. Okay, So Tuesday night
4:21
Mava Scale showed up around h you said, Well, I couldn't swear to
4:26
the time it was around. Then, Well, exactly what does she do?
4:29
I told the sergeant, We'll tell me. When I first noticed her,
4:33
she was standing just inside the front door, like maybe she was waiting
4:38
for somebody. Was Barney here in the arcade at the time? Now,
4:41
Barney was back there at that test your strength machine? It was busted.
4:45
I was helping fixing. Oh I am mister Jesse evening, mister dollar evening,
4:48
twilet, Hi, yeah, mister Dollar. Frank here's pretty good with
4:51
electrical stuff. So I helped Barney fix the machine. Look, Twilight,
4:58
I mean what happened then? What did Mavis do? Well? She waited
5:01
around another ten minutes maybe and then beat it. Did Barney see her?
5:06
Did he? Frank? You mean Mayvis? Gail was in here the ninety
5:10
was fixing the machine. So Twyla says, do you think he noticed that?
5:14
Mister Jess kind of hard for me to say, mister Dollar. We
5:16
were both pretty busy fooling with that machine. I didn't notice her, that's
5:20
for sure. Look, mister Dollar, don't you believe I saw this Gail
5:24
Dane here? You need half a dozen witnesses. Okay, Twilett, don't
5:27
get excited, Uh, Twyler, would I come in for me and grest
5:30
are going to drive over to the mortuary spend a little time with Barney.
5:33
I know you were there, Yeah, sure, sure, I'd like to
5:38
go again, Frank, I'll get one of the boys to take over the
5:40
change booth for an hour, so thanks, and be around eight, Well
5:44
around Esa, Mine and mister Jess. I'd like to ask the two of
5:47
you something. Sure, go ahead, I'm going to listen names here.
5:53
Barney may have mentioned any one of them to you, now, stop me
5:56
if he did, Mile, Martin, George Sheldon, Jarvis top huh yeah.
6:01
Sergeant McKay already asked us. How about that fella called the freature too?
6:06
We've never heard of him. Okay, thanks. I wandered around the
6:17
pier for a while trying to figure out my next move. McKay wasn't around,
6:21
and it was a since Mavias scale hadn't returned to a bel airs state,
6:26
so the only thing I could do was to keep on trying to track
6:29
down the men who'd been on that hunting trip twenty seven years ago with Tom
6:31
Sandford alias Bonnie Slave. Milon Martin number one on the list hadn't been able
6:36
to give out with anything exciting, but he had given me a five year
6:41
old address on George Sheldon, number two on the list. Expense account had
6:45
him ten fifteen cents cavvarn tips on the trail of George Shelton. It blew
6:48
hot and cold until late that night when I wound up at a bar in
6:51
downtown La. Yeah, Oh, George worked here for a handyman sort of.
7:01
That was iw Harper, You said, right, what sort of?
7:05
So your insurance investigator wouldn't be a cop? Maybe instead? No, now
7:14
about George, Just wondering, as all, friend, what's he done you
7:19
wanted for? I'd just like to talk to him, You sure, I'm
7:24
sure it figures he wouldn't be getting into no trouble. Real sweet fellow,
7:30
real sweet for a fellow who had it rough, and believe me, he
7:33
had it rough. Used to be an actor, I know, and it
7:36
real good. During the silence you understand, and along comes the talkies and
7:42
Old George him having a voice three tones high, and the air raids hiring
7:46
is out. It happened to a lot of them. Only for Old George.
7:50
This coming on top of a busted romance. This is too much and
7:56
he starts hitting the bottle and reading it sound what romance? Oh movie actress?
8:01
She upmarried another guy, so her name wouldn't be Mavis. Scale would
8:07
say, funny you asked that her name's all over the front pages you read
8:13
the story. Do you mean that this is nah? N This wasn't the
8:16
romance. Old George had a yen for some doll named Josephine Hinch or something
8:24
like that. Hey, you wanting to talk with him? It got something
8:28
to do with that penny arcade murder. Yeah, that's right now. Where
8:33
can I find George Sheldon? Well, the address is seventeen twelve South Glendale
8:39
Avenue, Glendy. Thanks another drink, no offin says, and I'll be
8:43
on my wife. You know, I kind of miss old George since he
8:48
left us. Yeah, sure, real sweep fellow. Yeah, kind of
8:50
miss old Preacher too. The way he used to rant and raise, what
8:56
did you say about the preacher? Old guy was a friend. Old George
9:03
used to come in here, read him the riot act about he's drinking,
9:07
wave his arms around and holla, what a minute? This preacher? What's
9:11
his name? Have me seeing? A kind of screwy name? Ought to
9:16
remember? Runs a rescue mission somewhere around here? What a fan? Help
9:22
sure? Her name's pocket? Jarvis Pocket, right on the button flanks.
9:28
This is your five bucks, my pleasure. Oh and fraying, since you've
9:31
been so generous, Well that address I gave you on Old George, what
9:37
about it? We'll save yourself the trip. It's a cemetery. Old George
9:41
has been dead for a couple of years. Jarvis Pocket had been number three
9:48
on my list of the men who'd gone on that hunting trip twenty seven years
9:52
ago, and someone had tried to murder Tom Sandford but got killed instead.
9:56
Now that it turned out he was also the preacher I'd been looking for,
10:00
could turn into a big break. Expense account items eleven and twelve six dollars
10:03
even tipped to above mentioned bartender and campfire around La skid Roll looking for the
10:07
rescue mission. It was a neat looking affair. All the lights in the
10:11
main hall were on, and as usual, the place was open for business
10:13
weekend. You shall find my brother the way of the Lord. For along
10:20
that way that was a good crowd. On hand. I eized into a
10:24
seat alongside a bluary eyed pilgrim who wreaked a bed share his life. I
10:28
looked around the bottom of the barrel. Was here venture sins and put down?
10:35
The brothers were listening to the good man up front, but they weren't
10:37
really tuned in. They were just waiting for a bowl of soup and a
10:41
place to flop. P Peace, my brothers, in Him alone is your
10:46
salvation and your hope of everlasting life. Open your hearts to eternal joy,
10:54
and the glory shall be yours. We will now sing heave numbers. When
11:03
the singing was over, I got caught in the crush, and the next
11:07
thing I knew, I was holding a bowl of little soup in my hand,
11:09
and I realized I hadn't eaten all day. Meanwhile, I kept my
11:13
eye on brother pocket and waited for a chance to get to him along.
11:16
That happened about five minutes later. When he walked out, I followed him
11:18
down a long, dark corridor and into his office. Please sit down,
11:24
young man. Thanks. My name is Johnny Dollar, brother Pocket. I'm
11:31
an insurance investigator. Oh, frankly, I thought you were a policeman when
11:37
I saw you out there seated with my flock. Been expecting the law.
11:39
Yes, excuse me, I knew they'd be coming around sooner or later.
11:46
Regarding that long friendship of mine, Barney Slave, Yeah, because all the
11:50
way back to the days he was known as Tom Sanford when you directed silent
11:54
films. Check check how long have you known Tom was alive using the name
11:58
of oh, mister Dollar, I was witnessed to that horrible affair that took
12:03
place during that hunting trip twenty seven years ago. Somehow, during the course
12:09
of that day's hunt, I became separated from the others. Then suddenly I
12:13
came upon Tom struggling with a man in a deep ravine. I would be
12:18
killing a man with a shotgun. The other man fell, the gun went
12:22
off, and he was killed instead of town go on, brother Pocket.
12:28
Immediately I told Tom we should find the others, tell them what had happened.
12:33
That he would have none of it. Is that when he told you.
12:35
He preferred to let the world believe he was dead, and I suddenly
12:39
realized that probably would be best for all concerned. In what way? Well,
12:45
mister Dollar, Tom was constantly involved in trouble, some kind of drinking,
12:50
too much, gambling, women, brawling. He knew what it was
12:54
all doing to Mayvies, but he couldn't help himself. Leave me, mister
12:58
Dollar, He loved passionately made her life miserable in his own as well.
13:05
I see a brother Pocket about the would be killing. I know, I
13:09
know what you're going to ask the name of the man that tried to kill
13:11
Tom? Yeah, you know him? Oh? Yes, he should it
13:13
Tom? Only the two of us knew his identity. You're forgetting someone else,
13:18
m the person who hired him, hired mister Donald. It makes you
13:24
think he was hired. So maybe I'm wrong, am I? I was
13:30
never quite certain myself. Did Tom think he was Oh no, no,
13:35
no, definitely no, at least as far as Mayvia Scale was quite right?
13:39
Did you share his opinion, brother Pocket, I said before, I
13:43
could never quite make up my mind. Well why not? Did you think
13:48
maybe Scale in capable of doing such a thing, hiring someone to kill off
13:52
Tom No, I'd rather not say. Okay, okay. So who was
13:56
the man who tried to murder Tom? What was his name? I'm afraid
14:01
it'll mean little to you, mister Dollar. His name was Joe Fallon.
14:07
You're right, means nothing on this fact, however, might prove interesting to
14:11
you. Joe Fallon at one time had been Mavis Jale's personal chauffeur. Johnny
14:35
Dollar, Oh it's you, hi, Sergeant Headquarters just gave me this number
14:39
to call. I was wondering, who'd be in Barney Slade's apartment? How'd
14:41
you get in with a key? Brother? Pocket? Had it? Give
14:45
me that again? Jarvis Pockett, He's one of the men on that hunting
14:48
trip with Tom Sandford twenty seven years ago. He's here with me now.
14:50
How'd he get it the key? Barney had given it to him a few
14:54
years back. He's known all along that Barney Slade and Tom Sandford were one
14:56
and the same. He also knows the the name of the man who tried
15:00
to kill Sandford? Who was it? Name was Joe Fallon? At one
15:03
time he'd been Mavis Gayle's private chauffeur. Expense account submitted by Special Investigator Johnny
15:18
Dollar location Ocean Park, California to State Unity Life Home Office, Hartford,
15:22
conneting an assignment the Silent Queen Meta expenserc count continued. Locating brother Jarvis Pocket,
15:33
who now ran a rescue mission along LA's skid row, had been the
15:37
only real break I'd had in the case so far, At least I hoped
15:41
it would be. The one time film director of the Silent Era had often
15:45
visited with his old friend Tom Sandford alias Barney Slade might put us on the
15:50
track of Slade's killer. I watched brother Pocket as he paced back and forth
15:54
across the small room, scratching his chin thoughtfully, glancing up at the blank
15:58
spaces in the wall with photographs have been He was still pacing the room on
16:03
started to McKay r. How about it, mister Pocket. As I told
16:07
mister Dollar, sergeant, I'm positive that this entire wall was covered with photographs.
16:12
Uh huh, And now there are several missing. Were they photographs of
16:18
some particular star? Oh? No, no action shots made during the filming
16:23
of a picture that I directed from his care You see what was the title
16:29
of that? Or maybe that is an important brother pocket Horse. Wait a
16:32
moment Yes, it was called Dangerous Little Node Dangerous Lovers That George Sheldon starred
16:40
with Mavis in that one was Tom Sandford in the too, Oh Tom,
16:44
he has the best role he ever had. How about the next row pictures
16:48
a photograph of Mavis and Tom? I believe I can't recall the title of
16:52
that film, A dreadful thing. Francis Trevellian talked them into it and directed
16:59
it too, And you should have stayed behind the camera where he belonged.
17:02
In the bottom row, were they photographs of Tom Sandford and Mavis Gale?
17:04
Yes, yes, I'm certain of it. That pictures brother pocketing. Would
17:08
you say that Tom had changed much since those photographs were made? Not too
17:14
much, nor put on a bit of weight, hair turned gray, of
17:18
course. Seaning on top, we'd grown a small mustache too. How about
17:22
it, Sang? You'll notice there isn't another photograph of Tom Sandford left on
17:25
that wall. Okay, So assuming the killer took these away because they might
17:29
identify Barnie as Tom Sandford link him with Mavis Scale. Yes, Yet the
17:33
killer went to the trouble of drawing red question marks over the other photographs of
17:37
Mavis Scale to deliberately draw attention to her. Why Lavis Scale would have been
17:41
involved anyway to a certain extent, After all, she is the beneficiary of
17:45
slave's insurance. Polisher, Sure, but suppose the killer wasn't aware of that
17:49
twenty five thousand dollars. I believe the amounts, that's right. And you're
17:55
wondering why he did it? Oh, I can make a guess. You
17:59
said, even pretty reckless tossed a lot of Mayva Scale's money around in the
18:02
old days. May have amounted to something close to twenty five thousand. This
18:07
may have been his way of scrying the account twenty five thousand bucks in a
18:11
king size shock. He could hardly be expected to guess that his death would
18:15
come about under these circumstances, mister Doll, No, no, but he
18:18
could have passed away calmly in his sleep some night and wouldn't have changed the
18:22
thing, Brother Pucket. Mayv Scale would still have been curious about a man
18:26
named Barney Slay. Yes, I suppose. Yes, he must have been
18:30
pretty sure she'd recognize him, that it would make a nice big splash in
18:33
all the papers. Was he that much of a ham? I'm afraid so
18:40
he couldn't have loved Mayva Scale, Oh, mister Dollar, right to the
18:44
last years. Still he couldn't resist the magnificent gesture, the big payoff,
18:48
returning her twenty five thousand. You know something, Dollar, now, you
18:52
sound like you're on her side. Well, gentlemenly, if that's all you
18:56
want me for, I think I had best be getting back to my quarter
19:00
at the mission. The flock may be getting a little wrestless. H You
19:03
know how it is. There are times one of the brothers will sneak a
19:07
bottle of sherry into the dormitory and things become quite gay. Sure, mister
19:11
Pocket, you can run along and thanks, good night. Good Then,
19:19
well, Sajan, what's the next move? What about this Joe Fallon?
19:23
You said he'd been Mavis Gail chauffeur at one time. Yeah, Pocket saw
19:29
the whole thing. The attempt to kill Tom Sandford twenty seven years ago,
19:33
Falon and Sandford were struggling. A shot went off and Fallen got it full
19:37
in the face. Sandford then decided to play dead. Yep. But ever
19:41
since then Sandford was hiding out down here under the name of Barnie Slaton,
19:45
that is, until somebody caught up to him, caught on to it three
19:48
nights ago, and killed him. Big question still remains, Who come on,
19:53
let's get out of here. I'll get it. Yeah, uh right,
20:03
I got it. That was headquarters. They just got a call from
20:07
Francis Trevillian Pavilion. He was one of the men on that hunting trip,
20:10
along with Pocket and the others. Yeah, seems Mayvis Gaale just heard.
20:12
We've been wanting to ask us some questions. She wants us to come right
20:15
over. She's a Trevillian's beach house in Malibu. The beach house turned out
20:22
to be one of those super modern jobs, low sprawling with a lot of
20:26
glass and flagstone. The butler allowed us through the front door, and after
20:30
a nice little stroll, we finally arrived at the den, a fifty foot
20:33
or at least with a bar one end. Mavis and a tall, distinguished
20:37
looking gentleman were at the other Good Evening, Miss Gail, Good Evening,
20:42
Sergeantine. Terribly sorry about all this. I didn't know you wanted to talk
20:48
with me. I should have left word at the house, I suppose,
20:51
but I was so upset anxious to get away. I understand. Oh,
20:56
this is Francis Trevillion, Sergeant McCain, mister Dollar, we met at the
21:00
funeral home. Oh, yes, I remember. Do sit down, gentlemen.
21:07
May I offer you a drink? No, thanks, mister Trevillian.
21:12
Now, Miss Gail. Yes, when I first informed you of Barney Slade's
21:17
death at the Penny Arcade at Ocean Park, you told me you never met
21:21
the man. That's right. I had no way of knowing it was Tom,
21:25
not until last night when I went to the mortuary. Had you ever
21:29
been in or near the Penny Arcade at any time, miss Gail, previous
21:32
to the murder, Yes, two nights before. Why didn't you mention this
21:38
to me when I spoke with you before? I don't know. I was
21:44
frightened. A man named Barney Slade had been murdered. The killer had drawn
21:49
question marks on my photographs in the dead man's apartment. Were you afraid to
21:53
tell me because it would involve you deeper? Yes? I think that was
21:57
the purpose of the phone calls? What phone call? That evening? Shortly
22:03
after six I received a call from a man he wouldn't identify himself. He
22:07
said that a very dear, very old friend of mine was in trouble and
22:11
needed my help. He instructed you to go to the Arcade Ocean Park.
22:15
I was to be there by eight o'clock and his old friend was to make
22:18
himself known to me. So you went, Did you see anyone? No
22:23
one I recognized, Miss Gail. Does the name Joe Fallon mean anything to
22:29
you? Fallon? Why do you ask that? Just a moment, mister
22:33
Trevanion. Why? Yes, Joe was my chauffeur many many years ago.
22:38
And when did you discharge him? Shortly after my marriage to Tom? Did
22:45
he tell you to get rid of Fallen? Yes? Yes, he didn't
22:48
like mister Dollar. May I ask you why you're questioning, Miss Gailee about
22:52
Joe Fallon because we just found out he's the man who tried to murder Tom
22:56
Sant for twenty seven years ago? What you mean he was the man killed
23:03
man we all thought was tough? That's right? Was Joe Fallon in love
23:07
with you? And now see better? Answer? Was he? Miss Gail?
23:12
I I don't know what are you two driving at? And Sergeant I
23:18
insist on knowing, And I'd like to know why you jump when I first
23:21
mentioned Joe Fallon's name, Mister Trevanion, all right, all right, I'll
23:23
tell you. You see, i'd quite forgotten about him. It was only
23:30
when you asked Miss Gaile that it suddenly dawned on me who he was.
23:33
And it startled me because his name had been brought to my attention only some
23:37
twenty four hours ago a phone call a man who said he was in partnership
23:42
with Joe Fellon. They had a business deal to take over with me and
23:48
well, I simply told him I wasn't interested. I was missed my most
23:51
important production and I just couldn't be bothered. Did you receive a similar call,
23:53
Miss Gale? I know, you know, Sergeant. I'll give you
23:56
words. It's the same one who call Miss Gail before the murder to get
24:00
it down to the penny arcade. But I don't understand why who is the
24:03
man. When we find that out in scale, we'll have the killer.
24:18
Here's your hotel dollar. Oh yeah, right, thanks? In a long
24:23
day, hasn't it? Sure? Has? We haven't made much progress?
24:29
At least Brother Pocket was some help. Yeah, thanks, Yeah, Pocket
24:36
gave us a couple of answers. I get sure you use a lot more.
24:41
Thanks, you know, Sargeant. That bit about the photograph still bothers
24:48
me. Why would the killer first try to hide the link between Mayvis Scale

and Tom Sanford and then deliberately draw attention to her. You think someone beside
24:57
the killer could have made those questions? Arks on her photographs could be okay?
25:03
For instance, who discovered the body? Twila James? Okay, you
25:08
mean she walks in, discovers the body, picks up red crayon, does
25:11
the art job? Why? Well, look, I just make these things
25:15
up. I don't explain them. You're off the beama in this one,
25:19
Johnny. When we got to Bidey's place, she was shaken like a ship
25:22
without a rudder. She was scared, silly. I'd still like to ask
25:26
her about it, though, Better get some sleep, dollar, I guess,
25:32
thanks for the lift, Sergeant Night. Yeah, the sergeant was probably
25:37
right about Twina. But I sonded on down to the amusement zone. Anyway,
25:42
It was late and the place was folding up. There was a nice
25:45
warm breeze blowing into the sea. That I was gone, so I continued
25:49
along the ocean front. It crossed over into Venice and kept right on going.
25:53
The old canals and the bridges look more sad and for long than ever
25:57
in the pail more night, with the sea and the background adding its lonely
26:00
rhythm of sound. The shot had come from somewhere over by the canals.
26:06
Then I saw the man on the bridge, staggering, weaving like a drunk.
26:08
I had had tored him on the double, but before I could reach
26:11
him, he stumbled and fell on his face. Here. Let's see her
26:15
pocket there, back there, pocket, This is dollar, Shohnny Dollar.
26:22
Over there. He kept pointing across the canal, and then I saw the
26:26
figure slinking away. I took after him. I scrambled across the bridge and
26:30
then along the canal, and then I lost him. I pulled up on
26:37
the bank of the canal, looking around, listen nothing. Then suddenly something
26:47
footsteps behind me, but I heard them a second too late. Now here's
27:07
our star to tell you about the final episode of this week's story tomorrow.
27:11
A man who talked too much and it killed him. Yeah, the payoff
27:17
join us, won't you? Yours truly? Johnny Dollar? Yours truly?
27:40
Johnny Dollar is starring Bob Bailey, is transcribed in Hollywood. Written by Adrian
27:45
John Doe, It is produced and directed by Jack Johnstone. Be sure to
27:51
join us tomorrow night, same time and station for the next exciting episode of
27:56
Yours Truly Johnny Dollar. Roy Rowan speaking, welcome back. Well, this
29:00
is shaping up to be one of the better Johnny Dollar cereals, and I
29:04
hope Part five really justifies the type of story we've gotten in the first four
29:11
parts, because we've got a very puzzling mystery, particularly those contradictory clues at
29:18
the crime scene. Myself, I don't remember exactly how this one turns out,
29:25
so I'll be as surprised as everyone on Friday when we wrap this up.
29:30
And I should go ahead and remind you this is the last Wednesday episode
29:36
of Yours Truly Johnny Dollar, So join us next Wednesday, or the character
29:41
who is going to hold down Wednesdays for the next two years, Philip Marlow.
29:47
Sure and be listening for that. It's going to be a very interesting
29:51
ride. As Van Hafflun stars. Well, that will do it for today.
29:56
We will be back tomorrow with Nick Carter, and on Friday, be
30:00
sure and listen as the Silent Queen matter comes to a close, and so
30:04
does the Yours Truly Johnny Dollar serial era. And then next Wednesday, the
30:10
Adventures of Philip Marlowe. In the meantime, send your comments to Box thirteen
