  Speaker 1: Now doctor watching. How about the Lucia Larcom's story The
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Island of Death.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Well, mister bell As I told you, most of that
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: exciting adventure took place on a chiny island in the
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Scottish Lake District. However it began, and officers say enough,
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: as so many of our adventures began in our rooms
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: at Baker Street, this honest Thamy September evening, and Holmes
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: and I was seated on either side of our fathers.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: I remember after dinner that he began to analyze the
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: old prefet that truth is indeed strangers, and fiction ignormously.
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: Hear him now, as he said.
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: My dear Watson, the true picture of the criminal world
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: is stranger than anything which the mind of man could intend.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: On the shows. I agree with the homes the police supports,
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: and the papers are usually quite undistinguished and.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: Dull to O chap, But that's the thought of the reporters.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: Depend upon it.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: Button.
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: There's nothing so unnatural as the commonplace.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: Let's put it to a practical test. I to cut
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: the evening's papers here. It is the first heading up
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: which I can a husband's cruelly to his wife. There's
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: a half a column of print. And I bet you
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: that without reading I can tell you rest to the trouble.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: I accept your bed, Watson, give me your deduction cards
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: so hard.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: There is, of course the other woman, the extra drink,
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: the puss, the blow, the bruise, and the sympathetic sister,
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: all d lady the crudest. The writers could invent nothing
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: more crude.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: And your example is an unfortunate one to your argument,
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: old fellow. Un the article to which you refer is
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: the Dundath separation case. The husband was a teetotaler, there
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: was no other woman, and the conduct complained of was
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: that he had drifted into the unfortunate habit of winding
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: up every meal by taking out his for Stephen Fellingham
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: with his wife, an action which I think you will
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: agree is not likely to occur to the imagination of
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: the average storyteller.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: Hurling fo's teeth, disantess right, who dos correctly you expecting
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: a visitor.
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: Yes, Watson, I am, And he might well prove a
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: client who will point out the moral of our little discussion.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: Oh what makes you say that the gentleman calling on
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: me is a distinctly colorful chessinality by the name of
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: Stephen Singer. He's nearly seven feet tall, and yet he
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: weighs under eight stones. Cocard from him this morning informed
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: me of his intention of calling at seven o'clock to night.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: You should do he weighs under eight stone. That's only
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: I hadn't very found he must be a human skeleton.
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: That was the unfortunate title applied to him at the
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: circus side shot which I first met him.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: It's got circus freaks here in Vegas Street. I have
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: seen everything.
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: Freak is an unkind and inappropriate word. Watson, Stephen Singer's
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: a fellows human being and a more than usually unusually
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: with everyone. In the case of the banks of circus murders,
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: he was good enough to take advantages of his almost
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: unique physical proportion and obliged me by hiding in the
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: barrels of a circus cannon. His evidence was instrumental in
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: sending a diabolical murderer to the gallows. Let him in
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: what you watch?
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, of course.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: What do you is?
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: The singer? Come along here, thank you and hope.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: To see you against Stephen Helone.
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: Mister old don't want to make a Newsshire my show,
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: but that the dea would a problem, and I thought
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: perhaps you'd be with it.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: Of course, Stephen said Donald Joe. By the way, this
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: is my colleague, doctor Watson. How would you do doctor?
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: That's the singer. My friend was Jeff Turnament. He once
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: helped him, helped him in a murder case. That totnessin
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: just strip.
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: Myself into the canon Barnard one or.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Two things I wasn't meant too.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Nevertheless, help was invaluable. Stephen. I shall be only too
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: happy to do what I can to repay the favor
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: I wants a problem.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: Well, perhaps I'm imagining things, and perhaps I'm not. But
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: wouldn't you say it was a rum thing? If a
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: professor offered me and three made person a circus, did
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: she quit a piece to go to some island in
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: Scotland for a week.

  Speaker 3: two reasons, Professor Macrowray, First Stephen Singer as a friend
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: of mine, and second, I have an insatiable curiosity, particularly
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: for experiments that require obscurity. I want to know why
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: a student of psychology, which is to isolate for malformed
• 8:40

• 10:18
  Speaker 6: But is the humorous battle way four times as much
• 10:21
  Speaker 6: as you, mister Singer. It will be interesting to see

  Speaker 6: how different the nature of your reacts to the same stimuli.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: Now do you think we are you thought of applying
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: different stimuli to these people? Professor Macrowray, what kind of
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: stimuli do you? In turns of a crime?

  Speaker 5: figure standing in the library window. I'm speaking from there. No,
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: I thought it might be you with doctor Watson. But
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: if it doesn't, I'm afraid.
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: And well you might be, if only of your own conscience.
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: I'm afraid of the freaks. They're swangry the night.

  Speaker 3: Hoots, let's rason it on. I'm afraid it's murder Watson. Quick,
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: let's get over to the Big House as fast as
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: we can.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: In just a moment, we'll find out just what happened
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: to Professor maclrays. Every man who takes pride in his
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: appearance should know that handsome, healthy looking hair needs a
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: hygienic scalp.
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: And when you buy a hair tonic, be sure to
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: get your money's worth. Be sure that you enjoy the extra.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: Advantages of creml hair tonic. This highly specialized hair tonic
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: contains an amazing combination of hair grooming ingredients which is

  Speaker 1: dry it breaks off and falls when.
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: You comb it.

• 14:47
  Speaker 2: Mister BELLA quick examination of his crumple body told me
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: that he was beyond mufflaid. Holmes lost no time in
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: examining that room of death.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: This crime isn't atty hard to reconstruct, Watson. But that
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: man was standing here. They spoke his last words to
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: me on the telephone.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: And the window is besides the instrument his last in
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: one pain, the shuttern.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: Yes, the height of approximately five feet, and the professor
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: was shot in the temple. He was about six feet tall.
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: The line from his wound through the broken vein with indicator.
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: The killer stood out there on the road, garden, watch.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Up these Yes, we heard the shot. Anyone get a series? Yes,
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: I'm afraid they did. Professor Mclerosis just be murdered.
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: Murdered well, I'm saying, I'm sorry, Perhaps not major, but
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: the fact remains that his killer must be brought to justice.
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: By the way, only three of you are here.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: Yes, where's Bert Arno the contortionist? I don't know. He
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: went straight to his cottage when we got back from
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: the Big OUs. That's the last I saw of him.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: You know, it's a funny thing.
• 15:46
  Speaker 5: I was only half of weightless er omes, but I
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: thought I heard two shots that five minutes apart.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: Two shots, and Bert Army has not appeared. We must
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: go over to his cottage at once.
• 15:57
  Speaker 8: Oh, poor bird, is he a sad?
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: Doctor Watton, no fresh wound than the beast.
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: He was lucky, curious observer of farmer lying on the
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: floor beside him, the same caliber as the one used
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: to kill the professor.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: See what birds done, mister Lowes. He killed a professor
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: to say.
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: Us all that's right, Stephens, and then he tried to
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: kill himself because he knew you'd catch himself.
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: That's the way it must to be. Now.
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: He was a brave man.
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: An interesting theory, yes, but only a look at the
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: position of the wound.
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: I'll take my medical reputation that it couldn't possibly have
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: been self inflicted. Holmes, this has been an attempt at
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: another murder.
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: More contee wantson no, thank you, I'd.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: Like a blasted gallon.
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: I'm still sleeping, and I smoked almost the entire the
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: size of the bank. I brought on the tips, and
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: I'm still very wide awake. I asked questions until well
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: after midnight. And what did I learn?
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: The servants or alibi each other nicely and the.
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: Other our party, for no one is able to provide
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: an alibi for the other, so that it.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: Must be one of them, as ill assorted a group
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: of suspects as we ever met.
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: Yes, it's a strange business. Why are the attack on
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: any the professor? Yes, that's quite understandable, But why on me?
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: What singleed him out from the others?
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know. He's a concotionist, he's firth, You're
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: normal looking. He doesn't seem like a freak. Of course,
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: that's it.
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: Thank you Watson, you have given met the other end
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: of the thread. Oh, however, round up the others and
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: bring them to the haunted tower. Dawn is beginning to break.
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: But before we hang that signal, for rest you, I
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: shall find the answer to this bizarre problem. Yet before
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: way fixed the dignal plag Ladies and gentlemen, I wish
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: to warn you that, as soon as we reach Land,
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: I shall turn Professor Maclwathe's murderer over to the authorities.
• 18:16
  Speaker 8: Yis, brother, where's dinss Alan?
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: Good chain? Let's forget.
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: I'm afraid that murders not a matter to be forgotten.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: Major, if surely you haven't forgotten your tempt on your
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: own life, Miss Arner, I feel nearly as good as
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: new Gavner. I think the Major is right.
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: Let's forget no, mister Arnie, not even on your request,
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: because the whole case centers around you. Oh May, last night,
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: while the murder was standing outside his window, the Professor
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: telephoned me. He wanted to know this. Both doctor Watson
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: and I were in our cottage. The implication is obvious.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: You mean it's the mysterious figure he'd seen resembled.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: Us in Ville, precisely, Watson. Now, mister Singer is nearly
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: seven feet tall.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: You will, Miss.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: Bettett, if you'll forgive me, could hardly be mistaken for us.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: You said it because amazing he tells us that he's
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: at a four for three. It must have been you,
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: mitt Arne.
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: But I got shot too, and you said when.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: You examine me that it was impossible I could have
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: done it manyally impossible for normal man. But I've forgotten
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: your profession. You're a contortionist. You could ease him such
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: yourself there at such an angle.
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: What don't you have to say with arnay? Why not
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: admit the truth?
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: You are not a.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: Contortionist, I now, mister Romes, I'm not you see mar
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: twin brother got the bit for this year job.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: But he had another engagement, and since the professor was
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: out particular about the date, my brother told me to
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: come here and would split the faith. But how did
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: you know that he wanted the contortionist home?
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: You should remember Watson when we first saw him on
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: the boats he contained of the Scottish fleas and asked
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: you to spratch between his shoulders. A real concautionist would
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: not not have needed your assistance. So your medical verdict
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: still holds. Good. Watson army could not have shot himself.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: But you will de restevish out meached their home.
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: Not quite Stephen, the simplest answers that the mysterious figure
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: that the professor described was disguised disguise that theory would
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: be confirmed by the fact of the killer. When he
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: was in the guard and saw the Professor standing at
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: the telephone and deliberately attracted his attention by throwing a
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: pebble at the windows.
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: Mister Holmes, the sounds well up.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: I'm tired of all the theories stuff.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: I'm going to hang the flag on the tower very well,
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: Major mat miss your own, don't keep h our eggs
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: like yes, Sary, you said someone disguised themselves.
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: Now charly the answers apparently not too many. Could you,
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: miss Bracketts, have reduced your excessive weight to appear the
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: size of a normal man?
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: No, nor could you.
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: Stephen have decreased your excessive height. But the Major could
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: have made himself up there taller with improvised stakes.
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: And the Major is only possibly you'll departure or to
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: believe they've done it. Believe me he did, askid. Don't
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: think we ought to turn him in.
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: Mister Rome, Oh no, remember he did it for us, Dear,
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: he didn't.
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: Really when it took that shot at me.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: But that's just it.
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: Only I might have been tempted if it was only
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: the professor's murder. But he deliberately tried not to murder you,
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: mister only, but to make it appear that you had
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: killed the professor.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: But there'll be a trial, dearie. So if there's a trial,
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: you know how it will be.
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: They'll make out it as all because he's a freak.
• 21:06
  Speaker 5: It'll be it'll be others forever, sa people to accept
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: this just as people.
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: There's right, mister Owns it, it'd be dead for all
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: of us.
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: I think the major has thought of that possibility. Look
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: at him up there on the tower.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: He's host to the flag. Hi how he's teaching on
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: the edge of the parpet He's going to mature line
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: he jumps.
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: Must be a couple of.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: Hundred feet down there. He doesn't never change the poor maja.
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: Someone Well, I'll take you back to the cottage.
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: I suggest to all return to our quarts and pacts.
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: The unhappy tragedy has reached its final conclusion.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: What a shocking business.
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: You're right, doctor watching when I think you in Bulker Street,
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: I never dreamed it would ender blust is the one
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: thing I'd like to say, mister Owns.
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: Yes, even I want to thank you, not just for
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: solving the keys.
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: But because your threety dollar us not a streets but
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: disordinary human beings, makes.
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: A big difference. You know, I know of only one
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: way to treat people's even and that is as each
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: person deserves to be treated. If Professor maclraford only realized
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: that proof, he would not have paid with his life.
