  Speaker 1: And now I know our good friend doctor Watson's expecting us.
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: Let's go in and join it. Good evening, doctor, my
• 0:09
  good evening.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Say how are you feeling, doctor, all over that attack
• 0:12
  of flew your head.
• 0:13
  Speaker 3: I'm feeling very much better, Thank you, my boy. I'm
• 0:15
  still a little weak. We old fossils take much longer
• 0:19
  to get over that sort of England the new young fellows.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Well, you take good care of yourself, doctor. You've got
• 0:24
  a lot of friends, you know.
• 0:25
  Speaker 4: Oh I'm really glad to hear that. Thank you, mister Bill.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: And now settle yourself down and I'll get on with
• 0:29
  tonight's new shut off Holmes Adventure.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Where did it take place?
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: You may not be.
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: Familiar with the names of Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney in Sack,
• 0:38
  but those are the four principal islands that make up
• 0:41
  the group known as the Channel Island.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Oh, yes, doctor, I have heard of him somewhere in
• 0:45
  the English Channel, aren't they between the southern coast of
• 0:48
  England and the northern coast of France?
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: Right, my boy, though, I very much doubt if you
• 0:52
  ever heard of the tiny island on which this story happened.
• 0:55
  It was the island of Gath, a minute but self
• 0:58
  contained spot for the population of just under one thousand inhabitants, subsisting,
• 1:03
  and from what I saw of the island in those days,
• 1:05
  subsisting very well on its dairy products.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Was it under the rule of the British government.
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: Doctor, No, mister Bouto, not exactly.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: You see, the island belong to a family by the
• 1:14
  name of Horn. The head of the family, who was
• 1:16
  known as the Senor of Goth, was an independent ruler,
• 1:20
  owing nominal allegiance to the King of England. That allegiance
• 1:23
  was expressed by.
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: One of those traditional ceremonies in which the.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: Senor annually presented one pound of freshly churned butter to
• 1:31
  a representative of the British Crown.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: Times haven't changed much, have they done?
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: It?
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Pounder butter is still worth at king's ransom.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: But tell me what were you and the great Sherlock
• 1:40
  Horns doing on the island of Garth.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: Well, just coming to that, boy, We'll give you a minute.
• 1:44
  It was in the summer of eighteen hundred and ninety
• 1:47
  six when, to my utter amazement, Homes informed me that
• 1:51
  we were going to the island of Goth as the
• 1:53
  official representatives of the British Crown to accept the annual
• 1:57
  presentation of butter. At the time, I must confess I
• 2:00
  couldn't see why Holmes wants.
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: To accept a ridiculous mission.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: It was only as we approached the island in a
• 2:06
  small fishing boat that he told me a great deal more.
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: Was at stake but a pound of butter.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: Unfortunately, mister Butter, I'm not much of a sailor, and
• 2:15
  as the wind was blowing hard and the sea racing, I'm.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: Afraid I wasn't a very intelligent, confessed tell Watson, Sumbiba, I.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: Hope so I feel wretch at home. I must say
• 2:31
  the whole trip seems exactly ridiculous to me. Plunging and
• 2:34
  bobbing about in a little boat in a raging current
• 2:37
  is because somebody wants to give somebody else.
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: Apound of butter.
• 2:39
  Speaker 6: You're all, Watson, you don't really think down mission is
• 2:41
  so innocuous to you?
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: And then why are we going to the Island of God.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: Under the Island of Garth at the express wiship. It's
• 2:47
  present ruler math a Horn, Mother Horn.
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: I never heard of it.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: It's an extremely spirited oldready and the only woman who.
• 2:54
  Speaker 6: Dared tell a certain resident of Windsor Castle that you
• 2:56
  look deviolutionly dowdy for an empress Scott, you mean that,
• 2:59
  I mean that Watson, that Martha horns behests are not
• 3:03
  likely disregarded.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: Obviously she wishes to see me urgently.
• 3:06
  Speaker 6: Also, my brother Mic put pressure on me. He reminded
• 3:09
  me that a visit to goth might be closely allied
• 3:12
  to this emerald type.
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: In I wear.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: Of course, you recall the origin of.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: This pen natural that lady at Windsor Castle gave it
• 3:18
  to you after our little trouble last year, and there
• 3:20
  was stolen plans for the Bruce Parkington submarine exactly, my
• 3:23
  dear fellow.
• 3:24
  Speaker 6: But remember that the spy Oberstein had put those plans
• 3:27
  up for auction in all the naval centers of Europe.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Some hindupan nature must have leaked out.
• 3:33
  Speaker 6: It's even possible that other powers may be able by
• 3:35
  now to duplicate the pride of our submarine.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Freet and whoever controls the.
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: Channel, Watson controls England.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: The dropping anchor, and yet we're still a quarter mile
• 3:45
  out from the Ireland.
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: Why why do you think they're doing that?
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: That comes the stepper here, tell us here the iss
• 3:50
  close to the island, as we may approach Mochief.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: We have already sent sieg notes. A smaller boat is
• 3:56
  putting out for you.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: It will be here in a little Why thank you
• 4:00
  for a smaller boat, Good Lord, Homes, you were hinting
• 4:04
  at the naval significance of the island of God. Yes,
• 4:07
  what whatever I was, what good would it be as
• 4:09
  a pot If even a small boat like this can
• 4:12
  only come within half a mile?
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: Amit for a.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Services or no?
• 4:14
  Speaker 6: But we were speaking of submarines a gath I learned
• 4:17
  from the encyclopedia. Most's a magnificent interior cavern, accessible only
• 4:21
  through underwater channels.
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: It's got an ideal natural harbor and drydock for a submarine.
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: Fleets is slain and on the control of the island
• 4:29
  of Garth. Watson may well rest the fo the British Isles. Now,
• 4:32
  jap perhaps you will see why Micraft were so anxious
• 4:35
  for us to collect a pound of butter.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: Homes, doesn't it seem wonderful to be on land again.
• 4:55
  First a fishing smack, and then that rich ad little
• 4:58
  Rauhin boat, then the bucket swingers up to the face
• 5:00
  of the cliff.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: Now at last I can switch the legs.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: Dady, let me give your hand. You will soon get
• 5:08
  your land leg back.
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: Thank you have a bit of shake here I must confess. Hello,
• 5:13
  who's that couple.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Walking to orders welcoming committee? No doubt?
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: How do you know mister Sherla Horns and doctor Watson,
• 5:20
  and will be to present myself.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: I'm doctor hugo oberbal do. How do you do?
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: Doctor?
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: And this is missus Reeves, the housekeep at Horncastle where
• 5:28
  you will be staying.
• 5:29
  Speaker 7: How welcome to the island of God.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Gentlemen, you are deputed to.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Come and greet you and take you back to the castle.
• 5:37
  You can walk there across the cliff tops. It isn't
• 5:39
  very fast, clendid.
• 5:40
  Speaker 6: I think my friend will appreciate traveling on tea firma
• 5:42
  once again.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: Dear me here, doctor, you are not a good salor.
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: Perhaps perhaps about it I had a miserable crossing.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: I am sorry to hear it. I trust your short state.
• 5:51
  The castle will be some recompense for the journ.
• 5:53
  Speaker 8: The farmer presentation of the butter will take place tonight.
• 5:57
  There will be no reason why you gentlemen cannot return
• 6:00
  to the mainland tomorrow.
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: Oh, thank you, Missus Reeves. But it's more than likely
• 6:04
  that we shall stay on for a few days.
• 6:05
  Speaker 7: It will be quite unnecessary.
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: I'm afraid that is a matter for Missus Horn and
• 6:10
  ourselves to decide.
• 6:12
  Speaker 8: I'm afraid that Missus Horn is incapable of making any
• 6:16
  further decisions.
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: What do you mean, madam?
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Obviously you have not heard, but the news is slow
• 6:22
  in reaching the mainland.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: Missus Horn died yesterday. Died, good Lord, natural death as well.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: But of course I attended her myself, a simple case
• 6:33
  of heart failure.
• 6:34
  Speaker 7: The poor lady died in her sleep.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: It shall we begin our walk to the custry.
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: Joke Holmes has changing things. Do you suppose it was
• 6:44
  a natural death?
• 6:45
  Speaker 6: I suppose nothing, Old Collo, But in almost twenty years
• 6:49
  of practice, I can recall precisely three clients, actual or potential,
• 6:53
  who died natural deaths.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Come on, let's follow them.
• 7:07
  Speaker 8: Mister Sherla Coombs, Doctor Watson, this is mister Christopher Horn,
• 7:12
  grandson of Missus Horn, and the new.
• 7:15
  Speaker 9: Ruler of g Hello te' nice of your fellows to
• 7:19
  come over here.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: Too bad, you have to arrive just as poor old
• 7:22
  girl kicked the bucket.
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: Though, allow me to offer my condolences on your grandmother's death.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 7:29
  Speaker 9: It was a ghastly business I found her, Christopher, frightful sight.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: There was an awful, an awful silly grin on the
• 7:35
  older's face.
• 7:36
  Speaker 8: And don't you think it would be more to the
• 7:39
  point if you were to explain the ceremony in connection
• 7:41
  with tonight's presentation.
• 7:43
  Speaker 9: You're right, breb Reeve is a terrible talent, but she
• 7:45
  is efficient, and what I do without her?
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: Always ran everything for poor old granny. Why when the
• 7:50
  old girl was ill.
• 7:51
  Speaker 8: Christopher, I gave you a schedule of the ceremonies this morning.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: What did you do with it? Thatshireevy.
• 7:57
  Speaker 7: I don't know, and I have my own copy in
• 8:00
  the study.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: That's right, I don't know what I'd do without you.
• 8:03
  Excuse us a moment.
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: I'll be back.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: Homest In thunder's going on here. That boy is completely
• 8:13
  under the father of missus Reeves. He was trying to
• 8:15
  tell us something that that frightful woman kept changing a subject.
• 8:19
  Speaker 6: He spoke of an awful silly grin on the dead
• 8:21
  woman's face. Didn't that suggest something to you?
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: Right, Joe, that's one of the characteristic symptoms of stricten
• 8:28
  Poisons Act.
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: And perhaps he was going on to mention the equally
• 8:31
  characteristic arching of the body. You've got to get mister
• 8:35
  horn to ourselves for a little while, and you've got
• 8:37
  to examine the body of the dead woman.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: And it's going to be difficult.
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: Hmm. There's a little.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: Balcony outside the window. Yes, tears, come along. Let's see
• 8:45
  what it leads to.
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: The balcony seems to be right round this particular wing
• 8:55
  of the castle. Must have served as a lookout in
• 8:58
  the olden days. I wish the barcula were a little wider.
• 9:04
  Must be a shed drop of a couple hundred feet
• 9:07
  down for the rocks below.
• 9:09
  Speaker 6: Hello, these mss be the windows of the room adjoining
• 9:12
  the one we just came out of. Let's go a
• 9:14
  little closer, show we may be able to find out something.
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: Can you see anything?
• 9:22
  Speaker 6: Yes, they're in there, missus Reeds and the boy. She's
• 9:26
  leaving the room. How's an opportunity. I'll tap on the window.
• 9:34
  He seems it he's coming to open it.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: What are you doing out there? Lying a few?
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: Yes, my boys, it's quite beautiful.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: Mister Vaughan.
• 9:44
  Speaker 6: Yes, mister Holmes, I was a great admira of your grandmother,
• 9:47
  and I was interested in what you were telling me
• 9:49
  of her death.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: She had a grin on her face, who said, yes
• 9:54
  it was.
• 9:54
  Speaker 9: It was awful her Her body was all hunched up
• 9:57
  like a croquet hoop. Doctor Obervalt said it was perfectly
• 10:01
  all right, but I must.
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: Say it to me.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: It was far from all right, I assure. And you
• 10:06
  started to say something else.
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: What was it?
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Let me see you said when she was ill? Oh, yes,
• 10:11
  that was a silly business.
• 10:12
  Speaker 9: When she was ill, she thought she was in danger
• 10:14
  from poisoning, so she she made Missus Reeves taste all
• 10:16
  her food and drink.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: You really, where is your grandmother's body now? In the
• 10:20
  west wing? The funeral has a bit morrow morning. I
• 10:22
  see where did missus Reeves go.
• 10:24
  Speaker 7: Around the balcony behind you?
• 10:26
  Speaker 8: Gentlemen listening to your conversation with the greatest interest, Christopher,
• 10:33
  let me warn you these men are the emissaries of
• 10:36
  the British government. They would stop at nothing to take
• 10:39
  the island over. These men are trying to influence you
• 10:42
  against me, against Trevi, who has looked after you ever
• 10:46
  since you were born, and who tries to protect you now.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: That your grandmother has gone and you are alone. Yes,
• 10:52
  I know that's wrong.
• 10:53
  Speaker 8: Is your pride is the head of the Horn family,
• 10:55
  the seneur of gas the gas that I'm trying.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: To say for you.
• 11:00
  Speaker 7: This man is completely I'm scrupulous.
• 11:02
  Speaker 8: He was about to accuse me of murder, weren't you,
• 11:06
  mister Sherlock Holmes.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: The thought had occurred to me, missus Reeves, of course it.
• 11:10
  Speaker 8: Had, because you wish to poison Christopher's mind against me. Well,
• 11:15
  mister Holmes, we have no police on the island of
• 11:17
  goth Our.
• 11:18
  Speaker 7: Only law is the word of the.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: Senor, and Christopher now holds that title.
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: Senor. What do you say?
• 11:26
  Speaker 8: Will you allow an Englishman to blind you by accusing
• 11:30
  me of.
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: Being a murderess? Mister Holmes, Doctor Watson, I shall meet
• 11:35
  you at the ceremony tonight. Beyond that, I don't care
• 11:38
  to spit you again.
• 11:39
  Speaker 8: Good day, ashamed despoil your plans, isn't it, mister Holmes.
• 11:50
  Speaker 6: Well on, so, magnificent Watson, magnificent and murderess who seeks
• 11:57
  to defeat me by accusing herself superb Then you gave Marty.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Hello, and one, but Miste paid for finish.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: We'll hear the rest of doctor Watson's story in just
• 12:13
  a second, So I'm just going to remind you that
• 12:15
  right now is one time you'd really enjoy a glass
• 12:17
  of Petree California Port.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: You couldn't ask for a more delicious wine.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: Petre Port, with its deep, rich red color and its
• 12:26
  heart of the great flavor, is one of America's all
• 12:29
  time favorite wines. Pet Report is wonderful after dinner and
• 12:33
  perfect to serve when company comes. Try it, but just
• 12:37
  remember that when you want the kind of port I'm
• 12:39
  talking about, you've got to make sure it's Petre Port,
• 12:42
  because all Petree wines are good wines. Doctor Watson, this
• 12:48
  is certainly an unusual story you're telling us tonight. What
• 12:51
  happened after Missus Reeves left you and Sherlock Holmes standing
• 12:54
  on the balcony, We've to our.
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: Runs and herd a quart and learning lunch there the
• 12:59
  great Man's little I could see that he was deeply
• 13:01
  excited that his keen brain was evolving some plan that
• 13:05
  would enable us to solve the mister Missus Horn's death.
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: After lunch we started.
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: To descend the stairs leading to the main hall of
• 13:13
  Garth Castle.
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: Because we did so, Homes said, there are.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: No danger ourselves.
• 13:21
  Speaker 6: Missus Reeves knows that we're here as emissaries of the
• 13:23
  British government.
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: If we didn't return with the butter within a few days,
• 13:27
  it'd be a British dreadnought here.
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: Looking for us.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: However, I am in danger of one of my worst defeats.
• 13:33
  My professional pride is peaked. If only I.
• 13:37
  Speaker 6: I Watson at home, if at any time today i'd
• 13:40
  the pure note, don't read it at once. But there
• 13:43
  comes Missus Reeves precisely. Marts and I entirely agree. If
• 13:48
  I do not make the test on Missus Horn's body
• 13:50
  within twenty four hours of our death, it will be useless.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: I must make it by three o'clock this afternoon. Mister Holmes,
• 13:57
  Oh yes, Missus Reeves.
• 13:59
  Speaker 8: I want to apologize for my behavior before lunch. I
• 14:03
  was intolerably rude. What tever of my quaros Maybe with
• 14:07
  British politics. I at least oh to both of you
• 14:09
  the duties of hospital.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: It's very gracious of you, Missus Reeves.
• 14:13
  Speaker 6: I wonder would your hospitality also include a personally conducted
• 14:17
  tour of the subterranean caverns for which this island has
• 14:20
  become internationally famous, would be really interesting. Well, i've heard
• 14:24
  my friend and I won't have the monotor. We have
• 14:27
  plenty of time, as long as we're back here by
• 14:28
  three o'clock.
• 14:29
  Speaker 8: I'm sure doctor Overbold would be delighted to join us.
• 14:33
  Speaker 7: He has made quite a study of the unique rock.
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: For me, that's splendid, and it should prove a most
• 14:38
  interesting excursion.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: Good homes, why.
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: Do we want to go stomping around a lot of dampens?
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: Well, they call the exercise what it was? Good old
• 14:45
  will you lead the way, missus reeves, and please remember
• 14:48
  that it's most important that I return.
• 14:50
  Speaker 8: Remember, mister Holmes, you must be back here by three
• 14:55
  old club. Little further mister Holmes, and we shall reach
• 15:11
  the giant cavern Ah.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Most interesting.
• 15:15
  Speaker 6: Watson and doctor Auberbald seem to have lagged behind us.
• 15:18
  Speaker 7: Someone they will be here in a moment.
• 15:25
  Speaker 6: There, This is the giant cavern Ah, magnificent, truly a
• 15:30
  miracle of nature.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: It's a natural submarine dry duck hewn out of the rocks.
• 15:35
  Speaker 8: Yes, mister Holmes, And in the olden days only the
• 15:38
  smugglers who inhabited this island knew the entrance that leads
• 15:41
  to this cave. The first tenure of Garth found a cashier,
• 15:45
  One told wealthy in here soup stewels, there are still
• 15:51
  the remains of some of the finest calveds.
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: Brandy is up an incomparable drink.
• 15:57
  Speaker 7: Would you care for some?
• 15:59
  Speaker 8: It is our cu them whenever visitors aner us with
• 16:01
  their business to offer them.
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: There is a natural shell here in the rock, per.
• 16:10
  Speaker 7: Amister Holmes, and here is a class.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: This is a rare privilege. I imagine that very few
• 16:15
  people have been offered.
• 16:16
  Speaker 8: Only our most distinguished visitors.
• 16:19
  Speaker 6: I assure you this cavan is completely inaccessible from the
• 16:24
  outer sea.
• 16:25
  Speaker 8: I presume completely, unless, of course, ships could swim under
• 16:30
  the sea with shells.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: You know as well as I. They can't missus reams
• 16:34
  even outside the imaginings.
• 16:36
  Speaker 8: Indeed, would you care to explore a little deeper?
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: The others will be with us soon.
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: To overpow. The others will be somewhere head of us.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: Yes they do, don't they dot home home?
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: Well?
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: I tar me, I'm afraid we cannot follow that.
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: What do you mean?
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: The next cavern is already cut off by the rising tide.
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: Wait you mean that cut off?
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: I am afraid so, But do not worry here doctor.
• 17:13
  In a few hours the tide will we see it.
• 17:15
  They are in no danger. Just shall I say, temporarily more.
• 17:31
  I can't understand it.
• 17:34
  Speaker 6: I'm getting confronted with Sleepy.
• 17:37
  Speaker 7: I'm so sorry. I'm afraid that we stayed here longer
• 17:42
  than I intended.
• 17:43
  Speaker 8: I fear that we are cut off by the tide.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: Cut off for the tide fair in no danger.
• 17:49
  Speaker 7: In a few hours we should be able to return.
• 17:52
  Speaker 8: But I am afraid I cannot get you back at
• 17:55
  three o'clock, which was the time I promise.
• 17:57
  Speaker 6: But it's vital, perhaps absolutely the vitals that I can
• 18:03
  get back.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: As so look, Sleepy, please keep talking.
• 18:08
  Speaker 5: I must keep awake, not a Google.
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: I must get to schla Coms at once.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: I am sorry here DOTRM, but we are not able
• 18:27
  to control the forces of nature. We cannot force the
• 18:31
  water to receive.
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: Your friend is in no danger. But he's got a
• 18:35
  most important test that he must make by three o'clock.
• 18:37
  I am afraid that will be impossible.
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: I've got to do something. I should have come to
• 18:41
  these blocks and claims the first place. I don't on
• 18:43
  earth I want to do that note at homes gave
• 18:47
  me told me to what if? Where did I put it?
• 18:50
  Speaker 6: Ah?
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: Here it is not for mister Shellack Holms.
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: Why don't you make medical tests?
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: Great Scott dot overall is absolutely necessive for me to
• 19:00
  return to the.
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: Castle at once.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: Indeed notes for mister Sherlock Holmes, and now it is
• 19:05
  most important that you return to the castle. No, my
• 19:08
  fine English friend, I am afraid I cannot allow you to.
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: I don't know how you propose to stop with her?
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: You say this so while a bot and do you
• 19:15
  see the stick? I warn your head dot Com? I
• 19:17
  know you don't.
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry you can't hear me.
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: Doctor over vote, But when Sherlock Holmes gives me orders,
• 19:27
  I carry them out.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: Ah, missus Reeves still trapped of the tide. What time
• 19:42
  is it?
• 19:45
  Speaker 8: I'm afraid that you will be a trifle late for
• 19:47
  your importance appointment.
• 19:51
  Speaker 6: You deliberately tracked me here, you drug the frank and
• 19:54
  kept me a prisoner.
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: Did I now?
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: Why should I do that, mister Holmes?
• 19:59
  Speaker 6: Because you're agreeing with power that's obvious in our domination
• 20:02
  of that pleasant to weak young man who is now
• 20:03
  seen your at Goth. I'm sure your beliefs would find
• 20:05
  support in certain ideologies now arising in Germany. You are
• 20:08
  a choice of a German doctors and accomplish in your plans.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: Would support that theory.
• 20:13
  Speaker 7: And what might my plans be?
• 20:15
  Speaker 6: I should say that you're determined to give God as
• 20:17
  a submarine based to Germany. With this island and their power,
• 20:21
  they could control the channel.
• 20:23
  Speaker 8: Very interesting, and I suppose, as well as being a spy,
• 20:27
  I'm responsible for missus Harn's murder.
• 20:30
  Speaker 6: You and doctor oberbauve between you and she was too
• 20:33
  strong for you not to get her out of the way.
• 20:35
  You probably made subtle attempts on her life at first,
• 20:37
  the origin of which he did not realize, that which
• 20:41
  caused her adventually to send to me my arrival Foth
• 20:44
  your hand, and so you and doctor Oberwald resort into
• 20:46
  the quite unsubtle expedient of poisoning her.
• 20:50
  Speaker 8: All pure supposition, mister Holmes, the only law on this
• 20:54
  island is Christopher Horn.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: Do you suppose he will believe you?
• 20:57
  Speaker 6: I suppose it were you've outwitted me, Missus Reeves. I
• 21:01
  walked into your track just as you intended me to.
• 21:04
  Speaker 8: Then in that case, you may collect your pound of
• 21:06
  butter tonight and return to the mainland to marsh Reeves.
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: How much longer do we have to wait to the
• 21:12
  tide before we can make our way back to the castle.
• 21:15
  Speaker 8: We can leave now. We could have left at any time.
• 21:19
  There's another secret entrance that is above the tide level.
• 21:22
  I merely had to make you overstay the hour of
• 21:25
  your test. I could not risk Christopher seeing definite proof.
• 21:30
  Come now I shall lead you back, you.
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: Fool homes homes, Where have you been all this time?
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: My bat watching? Do you open the note followed my instruction?
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: Yes, it was that you've suspected.
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: Thank keaven Old Chap. Then now we can hoist with
• 21:55
  her own the touch comes.
• 21:57
  Speaker 8: I am glad to see, gentlemen, that you have assembled
• 21:59
  here in the same year's room the ceremony of presenting
• 22:02
  the butter Traditionally it takes place here.
• 22:05
  Speaker 7: As soon as Christopher arrives.
• 22:06
  Speaker 8: We will explain our customs in this matter, Doctor Watson.
• 22:09
  I trust that Haro Obervald proved an interesting companion and
• 22:13
  your excursion, yes, indeed most interesting.
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: We had a discussion of the relative minute to the
• 22:18
  walking stick versus the revolver. I think I was able
• 22:21
  to make my argument convincing.
• 22:23
  Speaker 7: There is doctor the Bouts now.
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: I imagine he's lying down. He had all the symptoms
• 22:28
  of impending headache when I saw.
• 22:30
  Speaker 7: Him last Why are you smiling, mister Holmes.
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: What's been going on?
• 22:34
  Speaker 6: I'm afraid, Missus Reeves, the job plans have misfired rather badly.
• 22:37
  As soon as mister Van arrives, I expect you will
• 22:39
  be under arrest for murder and high treason.
• 22:41
  Speaker 9: Christopher would never believe you, wouldn't I, Missus Reeves, you
• 22:46
  poisoned my grandmother?
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: Christopher?
• 22:48
  Speaker 7: What lies have these men being telling you?
• 22:50
  Speaker 9: You're the one that's been telling me lies. I believe
• 22:53
  you when you said you've been tasting the old lady's food.
• 22:55
  When Dr Watson showed me the results of his test
• 22:57
  this afternoon.
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: And was as scary as daylight.
• 23:00
  Speaker 8: This could prove nothing after twenty four hours had passed,
• 23:03
  you said so yourself, mister.
• 23:04
  Speaker 6: Hol deliberate time, Missus Reeves, I'm afraid that I invented
• 23:07
  that mythical twenty four hour test. I knew that as
• 23:09
  soon as I mentioned it, you would attempt to prevent
• 23:12
  my carrying it out.
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: So I was delighted when you fell into my trap.
• 23:15
  Speaker 6: You thought that you were shanghaiing me, whereas in reality
• 23:19
  I was shanghai and you. My job is to prove
• 23:22
  your guilt to the Signor. With your dominant presence away
• 23:25
  from the household. It was easy for doctor Watson to
• 23:26
  make his test.
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: You devil.
• 23:28
  Speaker 6: You knew all the time, of course I did, but
• 23:31
  I had to deceive you. I'm glad my performance was
• 23:35
  sufficiently convincing. By the way, Missus Reeves, the drug brandy
• 23:38
  was dreadfully clumsy.
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: You didn't drink it.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: Home, of course I didn't, but it was very unflattering
• 23:43
  to me that Missus Reeves thought I might. Missus Reeves,
• 23:46
  you realize what this means, don't you.
• 23:48
  Speaker 9: I'm going to ask these gentlemen to take you and
• 23:50
  doctor about back to the mainland with them tomorrow.
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: And stamp trial in a British court.
• 23:56
  Speaker 8: Never I was born on the island of bar I
• 23:59
  have lived your.
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: Oh my life, and I said, die, She's going out
• 24:03
  on the balcony one.
• 24:05
  Speaker 8: Day, go along to Germany, one day, the whole world
• 24:09
  along to Germany.
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: Good Bye, right scout. She's gone. It must be a
• 24:17
  couple hundred feet rock.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: What a freadful thing. I still can't believe she was
• 24:21
  a murderers and and a traitor.
• 24:24
  Speaker 6: Now Shy shall be finished with shabby business, mister Horn,
• 24:28
  I suggest if we make sure doctor Oberbau does not
• 24:31
  escape justice, and.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: That we then performed the ritual presentation of the butter.
• 24:35
  Speaker 9: Yes, mister Holmes, the island of Garth will still pictured
• 24:38
  good to England, and I think it always will.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: Doctor, that was some story. So Germany didn't get the
• 24:54
  island of Garth.
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: After all, it's about telling fact in After years, the
• 24:57
  island proved.
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: To be an invaluable submarine.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: Say what about the pound of butter? Did Holmes get it?
• 25:04
  Speaker 8: Oh? Is?
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: Yes? But why are you so interested in the butter?
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: A you kidding in our house?
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: Butter is our second most favorite topic of conversation?
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: Your second most favorite? Well, what's your favorite topic of conversation?
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: Remember you asked me petree wine. If I didn't know,
• 25:19
  doctor that.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: Petree wine is something to really talk about. You know,
• 25:22
  the Petrie family has been making wine for generations. By
• 25:26
  the art of making fine wine is their heritage, handed
• 25:29
  down from father to son, from father to son. Believe me,
• 25:33
  when it comes to turning luscious sunripe in California grapes
• 25:37
  into fragrant, delicious.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: Wine, the Petrie family.
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: Really knows how, and they're proud of their wine too.
• 25:44
  That's why the name Petrie on a bottle of wine
• 25:47
  really means something. It's the personal assurance of the Petrie
• 25:50
  family that every drop of that wine is good wine.
• 25:54
  It ought to be because Petree took time to bring
• 25:57
  you good wine. Well, doctor Watson, what news sher Lock
• 26:01
  Holm's adventure do you have lined up for us next week?
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: Next week, mister Boutelle, I'm going to tell you a
• 26:05
  story that took place on the Sussex.
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: Downs many many years ago. It concerns a young girl.
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: A painter in watercolors, and a very wise old lady.
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: I call it the Adventure of the Living Doll.
