Net. Well, this is the last summer replacement season for A Life in
1:14
Your Hands that we're going to begin now. And for the first season in
1:19
nineteen forty nine, we had two of the episodes, and we have five
1:23
of the episodes from the second season, and none of the episodes from the
1:29
third season. The good news is we have by my account, we have
1:33
all the episodes from this fourth season. In the first two seasons, it
1:40
aired as a replacement series for People Are Funny and it was sponsored by Raleigh
1:46
Cigarettes. In the third season, it was sponsored by Hinz Foods, replacing
1:52
Ozzie and Harriet. This season it was substituting for Father Father Knows Best,
1:59
and it was the State. This series ran only seven weeks in the summer
2:04
of nineteen fifty two. Now we'll let you know this first episode is a
2:09
bit more challenging. You have to pay attention as all of the intro and
2:15
narrations and commercials public a service announcements have all been cut from this episode.
2:21
So when we go into the show, we're going right into Jonathan kag talking
2:25
to his secretary in dictating a letter. We haven't missed any of the plot,
2:31
but all of the patting is gone. All right. Well, there
2:37
with that said, let's go ahead and we will listen to day's episode of
2:42
A Life with Your Hands from July the tenth of nineteen fifty two. This
2:46
one is gangster murdered. One more letter, Miss Rogers, and then you
2:51
may go home. Thank you, mister k and Ry. We got a
2:53
long day. This will be the last telegram to Captain J. K.
2:58
Hutchinson south Wind blodge the rosa key. There's a box number here. You
3:02
can take it off this envelope. Dear Ken, thanks for letting me know
3:07
the Tarpeter going wild off the coast, leaving tonight. Plan to join you
3:13
day after tomorrow. As regards I guess that cleans up the desk. I
3:17
can't think of anything. Now you'll know where to reach me. I hope
3:21
you can get away this time, do I? This will be the fourth
3:23
try. Every time I plan a fishing trip, somebody murders somebody. That's
3:28
the way, with the city travel all around it, we'll be like this
3:30
on a peaceful island in the Caribbean. I hope you're right, but I
3:34
found that murder isn't very careful about taking a place to happen. As you've
3:37
heard me say, you never know when you may be called upon to testify
3:40
to an act of violence, which you will become involved quite innocently. Even
3:45
now, on one of those peaceful islands in the Caribbean, there may be
3:49
a crime in the making. What a crummy place, however, like to
4:01
drag me down here, I'll never know the key South wind lines the end
4:08
of the world, Jims, June, listen to me, pay something.
4:15
What do you want me to say? Get your nose out of that movie
4:16
magazine and pay attention. Are you reading that trash for anyway? You'll read.
4:20
You'll read sure travel for the beautiful Caribbean alone on a romantic island idea.
4:27
You said it was smart, boss, You said we could hide out
4:30
here, have the plane pick us up and fly us on down to South
4:32
America. You should sure, Sure, I said it. I think I
4:35
see the rest of my life. Make He told you you might have trouble
4:40
hiring a guy with a plane to meet us here, take us out of
4:42
the country, time and trouble. That's what make he said, Well,
4:46
I paid him five grands to take care of plenty of trouble. You gave
4:49
him the dough, didn't just sure? Boys, you're right? Well what
4:51
told him up? I told you to get your notes out of that magazine.
4:58
Hey, you don't have to knock it out of my John's getting meat.
5:01
Same people for three weeks. I'm thinking their faces. How that guy,
5:04

5:09

5:50

6:30
Going for their faith, Danny, the cops are after me. I'm

going to South America and I got fifty thousand dollars in my bedroom by Danny,
6:40
not leave it alone. Afternoon everybody. Oh hi, mister Buckler,
6:47
folks and join yourselves, are you? Yeah? Yeah, we're having a
6:50
great time sitting there in the lobby all afternoon watching a bug flying around the
6:55
room. How much excitement I can handy stand it? It is pretty quiet
6:59
in the room. Was a key. I'd be glad to take you out
7:01
fishing tomorrow, pulling out here in a cup of days. Oh, in
7:05
the meantime, how about a little service? Huh? You have a complaint
7:09
of some time? Yeah, you might say that the food is no good.
7:12
I wouldn't need it in a nightclub. The beds have rocks. And
7:15
how you stay out of this. Oh, he's doing the best. He
7:17
can't for it. Yeah, I'm sorry you don't like it here. I
7:23
don't mind him, mister Bucklin. He's had a lot of very nervous tension
7:28
lately. As that's why we're here. My husband needs risk from his chosen
7:31
profession. Yeah, it's important to his health and continued well being. I
7:36
can understand that a lot of men work too. Hug. Oh, everything's
7:41
all right, I sure hope so well. Captain Hutchinson will be up from
7:46
the dock before long. I'd better go see you about some supper. Okay,
7:53
mister Bucklin, Okay, that old brother you too, and talk your
8:00
arm off. Question. You forgot to tell him about your money. Forget
8:05
it where I can bring it up. You've been shown about it ever since
8:07
we got here. He read the magazine, and you'll keep your mouth shut.
8:11
I'm going for a walk back later. Don't bother on my account.
8:20
Tell me an apple tip lea. Oh, well should here? Yeah?
8:24
Thanks? Boss is kind of worried. Yeah, getting on his nerves all
8:31
this waiting around. That's too bad, shame much. A sweet guy,
8:39
nice to everybody, talks like a Gentleman's terrible if anything happened to him.
8:46
Yeah, you know, sometimes I think to myself, June, Honey,
8:52
wouldn't it be too bad if anything serious happened to Danny like he got sick
8:58
one the Federals pick them, or he got himself killed. Yeah, that's
9:07
too almost anything, wouldn't it be just too bad? Katherine? Yes,
9:20
Captain Mushington, who is it? Here's me, Captain real Buffler. Fine
9:28
say, I want to tell you that was a good shepher we had tonight.
9:30
I feel comfortable and very well fit, and I'm glad you liked it.
9:35
Captain. Would you mind keeping your voice down? They're right inside.
9:39
You might hear some reports here? Do you mean the other guests Wilmore is
9:43
and their friends. I want to talk to you about you haven't paid much
9:48
attention to him. Many try to be friendly, missus. Wilmore has been
9:52
cordial, but the men don't see you want my company, and they don't
9:54
like me either. My way of thinking, people that don't like other people
10:01
are usually trying to hide something. You think. They come in and out
10:05
the door locked. I hear a lot more than my guests think. I
10:07
do. I imagine you do. A couple of times I've heard and fighting
10:13
among themselves. Their fugitive criminals kept them nah, But then your imagination heard
10:18
him. Wilmore he's the boss and the other one helps him. They're waiting
10:24
here for somebody to pick him up and take him to South America. I
10:28
think the police are after the whole crew. That's true. We better,
10:33
of course, we're eight miles from the main land, but they shouldn't be
10:37
reported. That's why I'm talking to you now. You'd be curious if I
10:41
tried to leave the island tonight. I don't think you suspect do they.
10:45
I wouldn't like to take a chance blame you. Tomorrow morning, we'll put
10:50
out at dawn and act like we're going after top Fu, where we get
10:54
out of cycle, head for town, and come back with some of the
10:56
men tomorrow morning. That's soon enough. If we act not true and don't
11:01
let on we know who they are both. You're right. I'm going to
11:03
bed early like I always do. I was going to sit up and reading
11:07
that anyway, that's the idea. Can we go right on like we don't
11:11
expect the thing? Then tomorrow we'll have the police over here and catch all
11:16
three of them. I'm going up to the resort, missus Spenson. I'll
11:22
be back in a two minutes. Yes, the Suspenson please do sit Hello.
11:43
Hello you a good evening. How do you do. I heard the
11:52
boat, but I thought it went on by, and I had my guy
11:54
tie up at your dog. I hope you don't mind at all. I
11:58
realize it is quite I'm reading We'll be but passing, and I saw the
12:03
line, and I hope you wouldn't be disturbed. I was just reading.
12:07
My name's Captain Hutchinson. I'm one of the guests to stup Win Resorts,
12:11
oh, one of the guests. Well, I suppose you'll do. But
12:15
then, what did you have in mind? Well, I suppose you can
12:20
tell me what I want to know to be of service. Have a chair,
12:22
missus, Miss miss Irma May Jones. I'm a school teacher from Ohio
12:28
Tea Bill, Ohio Biology. Very please, you know you, Captain Hutchinson.
12:35
I am after seashells. You come to the right place. In the
12:37
last two weeks, I have nearly completed my collection of known seashells found on
12:41
the beaches of the Gulf of Mexico. A pound in this area, naturally,
12:46
naturally, I need one perfect gennonia and a perfect lion's paw, and
12:50
I intend to find them very worthy endeavor. I am here to inquire if
12:54
the beaches of La rosa key might be a good hunting brown. I've seen
13:00
a lot of shells lying around. You're not a collector. Oh no,
13:03
no, I fish apron mostly Yeah, well, captain, is there anyone
13:09
on the island who could tell me about shelling conditions? The owner of the
13:13
resort, mister Buckland the truth. Everybody else is going to bed. I
13:16
hate to disturb it. Buckland, it's late. If you come back tomorrow,
13:20
I'm sure he'd be well. I had intended to try some of the
13:22
islands south that's here. No, no, I'm afraid I couldn't. That
13:28
sounds like someone moving about, shudder, banging against the house shop as an
13:33
off chance. A collector never likes to leave any stone unturned, so speaking
13:37
quite true. Well, you could ask the owner of the resort if the
13:41
beaches might be productive, and then if I happened to pass by again,
13:46
I could inquire. That's good, lady, you come back and I'll let
13:48
you know what I find out. What is it you're looking for? A
13:52
perfect genonia and alliance, for both are quite uncommon. I'll try to remember
13:56
the names and jail Mister Buckler to be going. I should know if anyone
14:01
would. He's lived around here twenty five years. Well, thank you very
14:05
much, Captain. I'm sorry to have deserved not at all glad. Oh
14:11
my quindness. Yes, I hear him, Dan Wilmore, I'd better be
14:15
easy. Whoop me up, Dan Wilmore. Buck. Oh, I knew
14:18
something would happen. Who was criminal? Is in trouble for you? I
14:31
might have the decency to wear more than four I've seen then, well,
14:52
Captain, Captain Hutchinson, I'm glad to see you. They got your telegram,
14:58
Jonathan, I'm except in a murder. This man was stabbed, a
15:01
dead he fell at to put in the bed. His wife was asleep in
15:05
the windows and doors were locked. Looks bad for her. I heard your
15:09
testimony from the back of the room. But why don't you get up there
15:11
and help that Coroner Rowley? Straight? Missile? You keep us here for
15:13
a week. Besides, I don't know anything about it. I was talking
15:16
to a woman in the lobby. I'll see what I can do, Captain,
15:20
if I can get through the crowd. Oh, excuse me, pardon
15:24
me? Please? Can you can you let me buy here? Thank you?
15:31
Coroner Corner Raleigh. Yes, what is it? My name is Jonathan?
15:35
Kay, I'm a lawyer. Nobody needs a lawyer. No one's under
15:39
suspicion. I understand that, you see, Sir, I often have the
15:43
privilege of serving as an amicas Curia. Oh yes, yes, I'm serving
15:48
only the court. Seeking the truth is my sole interest. Oh yes,
15:52
I've heard it. Glad to have you, miss Kay. Ladies and gentlemen
15:58
and Amigas Curia is a friend to the core. He does not represent anyone
16:03
involved in the crime. He's not paid even this. Gig uses his expert
16:07
ability to cross examine witnesses to discover the truth. Gig called anyone you want
16:15
to I've been talking to real Bucklin here. I'd like to ask him a
16:18
few questions. Mister Bucklin, where were you when Daniel Wilmore called for help?
16:25
I just told the card please answer my question. I was in bed,
16:29
half asleep. It was hot, and I'd been up to get some
16:33
water out of the pitcher when I heard the yelling. I put on a
16:36
bathroom and ran the room. We broke down the door. Where did you
16:41
find the body? A few feet inside the door? Where was missus Wilmore
16:45
sitting up in bed screaming her head off? Where was the murder weapon the
16:51
right at the foot of the bed. The knife was a good ten feet
16:55
from Wilmore's body. Who found the knife? We all noticed it at once.
17:00
A guess. Did you ever hear missus Wilmore argue with her husband?
17:03
They are good quite a bit. Was Wilmore friendly with chips? Larded?
17:07
All three of them fault like Tomkins. That's how I knew they were criminals.
17:12
Heard him yelling each other about going to South America to get away from
17:17
the law. Why didn't you report this to the police. I was going
17:19
to take my boat in the mainland the next morning. I just didn't like
17:23
they were mean. He was the worst talked Roughs, ordered me around,
17:30
wanted extra tension. They were bad Lartin. I didn't want him hanging around.
17:36
Did you tell Wilmore you were going to report him to the authority?
17:38
Of course I didn't. I'd have bidden the dead one if I had.
17:42
Mister Bucklin, why did you say you broke down the door? I hero,
17:48
sir who We had to break down the door to get in, Like
17:52
I said, it was locked inside, and we checked all the windows and
17:56
they're locked from the inside too. Thank you, mister Bucklin. I would
17:59
like to old Chips Larnard. Mister Larnard, do you agree that the murder
18:06
room was locked from the inside? Yeah, Missus Wilmore and her husband,
18:11
Danny were alone in the room. That's right. Why would mister Wilmore lock
18:15
the windows and the door? Maybe he wanted to be alone? Answer my
18:19
question please. He was carrying a lot of money, fifty thousand bucks.
18:26
What was your connection with mister Wilmore? I was supposed to keep him from
18:30
getting killed. Danny Wilmore was a swindler, a gambler, a racketeer,
18:34
and the money was the proceeds from his activities. That's right. Where is
18:40
that money now? I sure wish I knew why? Oh, you couldn't
18:45
have made it without me? Where were you when Wilmore called for help and
18:49
fad asleep? I woke up. I ran down the hall and helped buckling
18:55
in the captain butt down the door. Did you have a gun? I
18:56
didn't even put on my pants. What were you're wearing a pair of shorts?
19:02
I can't expect the guy to sleep in a furred coat on such a
19:04
hot night. You were Wilmore's bodyguard. You heard him shot for help?
19:08
Yet you didn't even take time to pick up your gun. I can do
19:11
all right with my bare hands. Did you get along with Wilmore? I
19:17
worked for that's all. Did missus Wilmore work for her husband? Yeah?
19:22
Yeah? And the evening before they had a scrap. Afterwards, she told
19:26
me it'd be a shame if Danny got killed or something. The way she
19:30
said it, she wished he would. That will be all. This is
19:37
Wilmore. Please take the stand, Missus Wilmore. Did you kill your husband?
19:45
No? No, sir, do you know who did? I don't
19:48
have any evidence, but I need facts, not opinions. Why was your
19:52
husband killed? His money when he hit it behind a tough fish on the
19:56
bedroom wall. Whoever killed him took some money? Mister Larnat says, you
20:00
breast the feeling that you wished he was dead. I said what he told
20:03
you, but I didn't mean it, Harness. I don't know anything about
20:06
who killed Danny. When I woke up, he was standing at the foot
20:08
of the bed, just yelling, and then he fell. Are you trying
20:11
to make this coroner's jury believe you slept peacefully while someone entered the room killed
20:15
your husband, took his money and escaped through a locked door or window.
20:19
I don't know what happened. I didn't kill him. This is Wilmore.
20:25
Did you dream at all during the night? Yes, yes I did.
20:30
Why can you recall the dream? Well, it was a nightmare. There
20:37
were guns going off and I was trying to hide. I was scared a
20:41
corner Raleigh. I wish to point out that one sound may stimulate a dream.
20:45
The nature of the sound may not be interpreted accurately. It may be
20:49
confused in the dreamer's subconscious mind. This is an established scientific fact. It's
20:55
possible that missus Wilmore actually heard a sound like a shot being fired while murder
21:00
was taking place. Mister Keig, Yes, could I ask a question?
21:03
Go on? I've been around top guys a long time. I've been around
21:08
when people got killed and when people were planning to kill people. I read
21:12
detective stories and I go to the movies. No, maybe I don't ask
21:17
very smart, but with what I know, person secondhand? Is this your
21:21
question? With what I know? Would I kill my husband in a lost
21:25
room when nobody else around to get playing for it? Kill me? Could
21:27
anybody think I'm that? Though? Not unless they thought you were very clever,
21:32
missus Wilmore, Corner Raleigh, I would like to request the recess until
21:38
day after tomorrow. I wish to locate an innocent advice then, a person
21:42
completely unaware of what took place that night, yet might have been close enough
21:47
to help us learn the truth, or Miss keg until I called you together
21:52
again to continue the inquest. This jury is excuse well, Corner Raleigh.
22:12
I would like to publicly thank Miss Jones for returning from her home in Ohio
22:17
to testify at this inquet. I considered it, My duties were great.
22:22
Put you, Miss Jones, proceed miss Key, Miss Jones, you were
22:27
present at south Wind Lodge on a Rosa key on the night that deceased Daniel
22:32
Wilmore met his death. I was in the lounge talking to Captain Hutchinson,
22:36
and then suddenly the most unusual things began to happen. So I'll come to
22:41
that. Please answer my question. My answer is, if you were present
22:45
at the resort, how did you arrive at the island by boat? I
22:49
charted it for the day for mister Finson, and he taken me to visit
22:53
some of the islands in the vicinity. What did you do. When you
22:56
arrived, I walked from the dark through the resort. You saw no one,
23:00
only Captain Hutchinson. He was sitting in the lobby or lounge reading.
23:06
What were the weather conditions? Oh, heart and fast. It was not
23:11
uncomfortable on the water, but on land it was muddy. The windows of
23:14
the resort were open, the doors. Yes. Was the captain alone when
23:18
you entered the lobby or lounge? Yes? Yes, he told me everyone
23:22
else had gone to bed. Did you have reasons about this? Well,
23:26
he may have thought they were in bed asleep. But while we were talking,
23:30
I heard a window open. You're sure it was open? Oh?
23:33
Absolutely. The few seconds later it was closed banged down. You heard the
23:37
window open naturally, then slammed down, Yes, sir, go on,
23:42
Well, I believe that's all I can tell you. I informed the Captain
23:47
that I was anxious to leave. I was thanking him for his information just
23:49
one moment. Why were you anxious to leave? And I was worried about
23:55
it? When I, well, something made me concerned. I I I
23:59
started for the door very hard, Miss Joones, Oh coh. The banging
24:07
noise like well, I thought a wind must have cut off. Suddenly did
24:12
Captain Hutchinson, not of the south. We told me it was a shutter.
24:15
You heard the window open, yes, then you heard it close.
24:18
Then a man shouted shout at one a name Ships. I believe I've been
24:26
thinking about it on the plane hid here. Yes, I was like a
24:29
man shouting, a woman screaming, and that gentleman mister Bucklin ran through the
24:33
room in his bathroom, and and that one Ships Slarnard he dashed by and
24:40
just his shots. What did you do? I blushed, yes, of
24:44
course. What happened next, Miss Jones. The entire experience was shocking,
24:48
faint for a moment. Then they were kicking at the door. So I
24:52
ran to the dock and told mister Swinson my experience, and we headed for
24:56
the mainland. On your way to the mainland, did the wind and waves
25:00
tossed the boat around? Who? It was? Perfectly calm, mister Keke.
25:03
Whatever gave you the idea there was a storm, Thank you, Miss
25:06
Jones. That is all. Oh well, I'm all right now. I
25:08
just feel faith for a moment, but I'm sure i can go on.
25:11
That will not be necessary. Your testimony as to what you heard has given
25:15
us the truth. Quiet, please, White, Everyone, please quiet corner
25:27
Raleigh. You are a physician, are you not? I am as a
25:32
doctor. Do you believe it is possible for a man fatally stabbed to close
25:36
a window, lock it, and walk ten feet or more before he fell.
25:38
Possible, But that is the answer to the locked room. Daniel Wilmore
25:44
was stabbed by someone outside the window. He pulled away, leaving the knife
25:48
in the murderer's hand. To keep from being struck again, he slammed the
25:52
window down, threw the lock, and staggered toward the door, shouting for
25:55
his friend and bodyguard, Chip's liner, don't you live larned, Don't be
26:07
a fool. Don't I'm just drop that gun dropping her. I'll come get
26:15
it. The testimony of the innocent bystander can be interpreted in only one way.
26:21
Stand still honored. Daniel Wilmore's killer get outside the bedroom. He was
26:27
there when miss Jones walked up to the house. He planned to enter and
26:32
take the money, but the window was locked. Shoot. The killer attracted
26:37
his victim by banging the shutter against the house. Miss Jones heard that sound.
26:42
The sound that awakened Wilmore made him go to the window and open it
26:45
to fasten the shutter. The killer struck, but the window was slammed and
26:51
locked in his face. He ran inside, helped brake down the door,
26:55
and dropped the knife at the foot of the bed. Was short. I
26:59
couldn't have carried it night, for they have seen it. Okay, I
27:02
didn't kill Danny. I know you didn't give me your gun. Okay,
27:08
Okay, Corner Raleigh, who could have hidden outside the window without being seen?
27:15
Who could have carried a blood stained knife without it being noticed? A
27:19
man who was wearing a black bathrobe. Maybe I don't need the chill and
27:25
see you. Maybe you're tired of taking orders, cooking meals, carrying suitcases.
27:29
Nobody will believe that you wanted the money, and you haven't. You
27:32
returned after the murder, before the police searched. You removed fifty thousand dollars
27:37
from behind That money from honest men, men like me. He was no
27:41
good criminals. I have more right, Jordan, Yes, rail Bucklin,
27:48
you killed Danny Wilmore. Thanks to the testimony of a completely innocent bystander,
27:56
Miss Irma May Jones, we have learned the murderer of Daniel Wilmore. You
28:03
did it mister Keig solved a murder by questioning an innocent bystanding the honest people
28:10
of the county think Conali. Our system of justice is based on the ability
28:15
of witnesses to testify accurately. Because of this, we can usually learn the
28:19
truth. When will we see you again? Mister Keig is a meek is
28:22
curio. Whatever I'm needed, I'll be here. Good night, mister Keig,
28:26
good night, welcome back. Well, as Jonathan Kaigg doesn't usually practice
28:33
law there, his promise of being there whenever they needed him was perhaps a
28:41
little ambitious. He's kind of interesting him admitting that he cannot go on vacation
28:48
without running into a murder, which is the problem that all of the great
28:55
Sluice face because if they're not solving a murder of the well, there's no
29:00
story. So we need them to run into a murder wherever they go this
29:06
spot. What problems that might represent for their recreation? Well, we turned
29:10
out a listener comments and feedback, and I wrote an email here from Richard
29:14
who says, Adam, I'm really enjoying this new series, referring to a
29:18
wife in your hands. Perhaps I haven't paid attention previously, but I find
29:22
it interesting that Mike Wallace is the announcer I listen to your shows and others
29:26
to get my fixed daily at work. Thanks so much for your great work.
29:30
Well, thanks so much, Rich And it was interesting to hear Mike
29:34
Wallace and some of his performances before he found his fame as a newsman.
29:41
For sixty minutes previously, we played an actual radio detective back in Crime on
29:49
the Waterfront. There's another series that I'm planning on eventually doing called Crime Files
29:56
of Lamont, where he is one of the actors who played the role of
30:00
Lamont, though there were several Flamands as well as several incarnations of that particular
30:07
series, but that will be interesting to hear as well. Really one of
30:11
those Wallace is one of those figures whose radio career didn't really give any guess
30:21
as to what his ultimate claim to fame as well as his media legacy would
30:27
be. All right, Well, that we'll do it for today, join
30:30
us tomorrow for let George do it, and we'll be back next week with
30:34
another episode of A Life in your Hands. In the meanwhile, send your
