- 3:47Speaker 9: your ship, the Northern Queen. Yes, wait, give me the
- 3:51Speaker 9: fact that I will, sir, and it'll likely raise the

- 3:58Speaker 8: What happened?
- 3:59Speaker 9: But there was the wreck of my shift twas cap'n
- 4:02Speaker 9: below stayed around the rock, Sir.
- 4:05Speaker 6: Captain Blow wasn't matter.
- 4:06Speaker 9: The Northern Queen was he No, but he rode the
- 4:08Speaker 9: bridge the night she broke up. Leastwise is ghosted ghost.
- 4:13Speaker 9: I the ghost to cap'n Below held the wheel, and
- 4:17Speaker 9: all the men aboard couldn't budget from his grip that
- 4:21Speaker 9: strong he was.
- 4:22Speaker 4: Now, what I want to know, mate, is what the
- 4:25Speaker 4: Northern Queen will doing off her course?
- 4:27Speaker 9: It'd sprung a leak in our fresh water tank, Sir.
- 4:30Speaker 9: The nearest land point was below island. The skipper set
- 4:33Speaker 9: the Northern Queen to the wind and stared across for
- 4:36Speaker 9: the island. The crew was again it, but it was
- 4:40Speaker 9: that or die of thirst. Gentlemen, if I knew then
- 4:45Speaker 9: what was before us, I'd had died a thousand times.
- 4:50Speaker 2: What happened nothing, sir.
- 4:51Speaker 9: Till we were a few miles off the island. Then
- 4:56Speaker 9: Captain Below's ghost took command. I most forgot, mister Fenston.
- 5:01Speaker 9: I don't suppose you know about Captain Below, No, but
- 5:05Speaker 9: I'm very much interested. Well, Sir, Captain Below's been dead.
- 5:09Speaker 9: He's twenty years or more. He was the last of
- 5:12Speaker 9: the old square rigger skippers. It was the China trade
- 5:16Speaker 9: he was in. On his last voyage under the Orient.
- 5:20Speaker 9: He carried two precious cargoes, A shipment of silver and
- 5:25Speaker 9: his beautiful young wife. Cap'n Below was quitting the sea
- 5:30Speaker 9: to settle in South America. Oh, happy pair, they were, sir,
- 5:34Speaker 9: none happier. His crew, though, was the muttliest collection a
- 5:39Speaker 9: sea scum ever. The sail of all the mast well, sir.
- 5:43Speaker 9: They were just off the island that's now called after him.
- 5:47Speaker 9: Cap'n Below was at the wheel, his wife beside him.
- 5:53Speaker 9: The sea spray was washing her lovely face. Since he
- 5:56Speaker 9: was laughing into the wind, the crew was left heads together.
- 6:02Speaker 2: We're fools if we don't. I tell you, we could
- 6:04Speaker 2: do it easy.
- 6:05Speaker 6: Captain Bilo's got the silver lock in his cabin.
- 6:07Speaker 2: Now we could make him give up the key. He'll
- 6:10Speaker 2: never do it. Our way away clings, and we can't
- 6:12Speaker 2: make him do it. He's only one man, and we're.
- 6:14Speaker 8: A whole crew.
- 6:15Speaker 11: There's enough silver to make us all rich for the
- 6:18Speaker 11: rest of our lives.
- 6:19Speaker 2: Much pretty a cargo on the bridge.
- 6:21Speaker 3: Beside him, he's a womany silva comes from the earth
- 6:24Speaker 3: with a pace like that could only come from above.
- 6:27Speaker 3: I want silver, and all my share goes for the
- 6:29Speaker 3: other cargo.
- 6:30Speaker 8: We share a lot.
- 6:32Speaker 12: We get the prize first, we argue about it afterwards.
- 6:36Speaker 2: Come on.
- 6:37Speaker 9: While a happy woman laughed beside the contented man, the
- 6:41Speaker 9: crew crept slowly toward the bridge. The laugh was cut
- 6:46Speaker 9: short by the sight of the hard faced man. Captain
- 6:51Speaker 9: Below asked them what they wanted for. We want the
- 6:54Speaker 9: key your cabin, Captain Below, and we mean the guy,
- 6:58Speaker 9: he ordered the men below.
- 7:00Speaker 10: But we kid for that show the cargo and you i'd.
- 7:02Speaker 6: Put in us all did give us the key, peaceful,
- 7:04Speaker 6: and we'll take it away.
- 7:05Speaker 9: From your skipper reminded him it was mutiny.
- 7:07Speaker 2: You know what it is. You don't have to tell
- 7:10Speaker 2: us mutiny.
- 7:11Speaker 6: I'm not winning command in and you'll be enough. Talk
- 7:14Speaker 6: out of the key.
- 7:15Speaker 9: Capron Below told him they'd get the key over his
- 7:18Speaker 9: dead body.
- 7:18Speaker 10: All right, down, over your dead body. It'll be Captain Below.
- 7:22Speaker 10: Come on, man.
- 7:26Speaker 2: Joking, mesh him the swam well.
- 7:30Speaker 9: The men fought like hungry wolves. Cap'n Below's wife stood
- 7:34Speaker 9: frozen in horror, held me that balayon.
- 7:36Speaker 10: Burn here, you want.
- 7:40Speaker 9: That on a shuttle a swath. The blow from the
- 7:43Speaker 9: balt and thin stunned the skipper. He fell to the deck.
- 7:46Speaker 9: The crew were on him snapping like a bunch of jackals.
- 7:49Speaker 2: I loved him up. Jimmy car was no more now.
- 7:52Speaker 10: Heave him over the syle.
- 7:55Speaker 9: Cap'ain Below was half conscious when they threw him over
- 7:58Speaker 9: the rail. He revived a bit when his body hit
- 8:01Speaker 9: the water. He saw his ship with his wife aboard,
- 8:05Speaker 9: sailing away above the surge of the sea. He heard,
- 8:08Speaker 9: coming back on the wind, the pitiful.
- 8:11Speaker 2: Wail of his lovely wife.
- 8:14Speaker 9: Before the water has covered him up. Captain Below, with
- 8:18Speaker 9: a notaf on his lips, swore eternal vengeance on all
- 8:24Speaker 9: men who sailed the sea. Well, gentlemen. Captain Below's wife
- 8:35Speaker 9: died soon after that, but he's had his revenge many
- 8:39Speaker 9: times over. He takes the helm of any ship that
- 8:42Speaker 9: ventures into the waters when he lost his life and
- 8:45Speaker 9: stears it under the rocks of Bealo Island.
- 8:48Speaker 6: You think that's how the Northern Queen was wrecked.
- 8:51Speaker 9: I don't think, mister Cranston. I know I'm not given
- 8:56Speaker 9: to ghost stories, sir, But I saw the Northern Queen's
- 8:59Speaker 9: propeller frozen so her big engines couldn't turn it over
- 9:02Speaker 9: there she rode helpless on the tide, straight for the rocks.
- 9:07Speaker 9: She was smashed to bits.
- 9:09Speaker 6: Why are you so sure the ghost of Captain Bailoh
- 9:11Speaker 6: to command?
- 9:12Speaker 9: Because I heard the warning warning, Aye, sir, I was
- 9:17Speaker 9: just going off watch when I heard it plane as
- 9:19Speaker 9: I hear you. But what it the pitiful wail of
- 9:23Speaker 9: Captain Balow's wife. I knew then the Northern Queen was
- 9:28Speaker 9: done for Another seaman and myself put a small.
- 9:31Speaker 11: Boat over the side and rowed away. The other man
- 9:35Speaker 11: died from exposure. I was picked up five days later
- 9:40Speaker 11: by a liner. That's why I'm here now, gentlemen. And
- 9:45Speaker 11: there's not enough money in all the world that had
- 9:49Speaker 11: get me back to Bealo Island.
- 9:52Speaker 4: Well, the wreck of the Northern Queen is still a
- 9:55Speaker 4: mystery to me, Gregson.
- 9:57Speaker 2: What do you think?
- 9:59Speaker 6: Do I think, mister Wynne? How would you and missus
- 10:03Speaker 6: ware like to take a trip on my yacht with
- 10:05Speaker 6: miss Lane and myself trip?
- 10:07Speaker 4: Where to to below Island?
- 10:19Speaker 10: Why?
- 10:19Speaker 4: George, it's funny here. I am owner of a free
- 10:23Speaker 4: devortion liners. I haven't been to sea in years. Cranston,
- 10:27Speaker 4: I am glad you suggested.
- 10:28Speaker 2: This, boy where I'm glad you're enjoying it. Mister ware Oh,
- 10:33Speaker 2: this sold air makes you sleepy. This is where miss
- 10:38Speaker 2: Lane turning long ago gets off.
- 10:40Speaker 5: Follow suit, Come on, cresson, Yes, I'll join you along
- 10:42Speaker 5: just a moment.
- 10:43Speaker 3: All right, oh, miss ware, mister Granton, Yes, captain, and
- 10:49Speaker 3: the orders for tonight's there, no go to the same cause,
- 10:53Speaker 3: and you haven't yet filled me where we're headings theh
- 10:56Speaker 3: oh and so your mind's there talking.
- 11:01Speaker 2: We're heading for Balo Island. Belo Island.
- 11:05Speaker 3: Yes, you've heard of the place? I suppose what seamen hasn't?
- 11:10Speaker 3: And why in Heaven's name do you want to go
- 11:11Speaker 3: to that place?
- 11:12Speaker 2: Sir?
- 11:13Speaker 6: I want to convince myself of something.
- 11:14Speaker 2: It's a dangerous voyage, sir. You think we might be wrecked?
- 11:18Speaker 8: Is that? It?
- 11:19Speaker 2: Not only that, sir?
- 11:21Speaker 3: It means trouble with a crew and they find out
- 11:23Speaker 3: we're heading for those haunted waters.
- 11:26Speaker 2: Well, I hate to think of what may happen.
- 11:27Speaker 5: Tell me, Captain, do you believe in this legend? Do
- 11:32Speaker 5: you fear the ghost of Captain Beloh?
- 11:35Speaker 3: Yes, sir, I certainly do. Before the curtain rises on
- 11:49Speaker 3: act too of the ghost of Captain? Below, a word
- 11:51Speaker 3: about blue coal, the product that makes the Shadow programs possible.
- 11:55Speaker 3: Right now, with winter half over, most of you householders
- 11:58Speaker 3: find that it's time to water more fuel for the
- 12:01Speaker 3: supply in your bins is getting low. But when you
- 12:04Speaker 3: order that fresh supply, be sure to remember this. There's
- 12:07Speaker 3: a vast difference in the quality and the actual heating
- 12:10Speaker 3: results you'll get from blue coal compared to ordinary hard coal.
- 12:14Speaker 3: For blue coal is mined from the nation's richest anthracite field,
- 12:18Speaker 3: and the superior resources and equipment of the Glen Alden Company,
- 12:22Speaker 3: America's largest hard coal producer, are combined to make blue
- 12:26Speaker 3: coal the perfect fuel for home heating comfort. That's why
- 12:30Speaker 3: each ton of blue coal is screened and re screened
- 12:33Speaker 3: many times for proper sizing. That's why each ton is
- 12:37Speaker 3: washed with over twelve times its weight in water to
- 12:40Speaker 3: remove any existing impurities, and then finally laboratory tested by
- 12:44Speaker 3: inspectors to guarantee its quality and homeowners. That's why I say,
- 12:49Speaker 3: make your next fuel order a supply of blue coal.
- 12:53Speaker 3: Then compare the results blue coal gives you with the
- 12:56Speaker 3: results you've been getting.
- 12:57Speaker 2: You be the judge. I know you'll agree with.
- 13:00Speaker 3: The verdict of thousands of American families that there's no
- 13:03Speaker 3: substitute for blue coal for perfect heat with less furnace.
- 13:07Speaker 2: Attention.
- 13:08Speaker 3: Your nearest dealer's name is listed in the where to
- 13:10Speaker 3: buy it section of your classified telephone directory under.
- 13:13Speaker 2: The words blue coal.
- 13:15Speaker 3: Call him for your supply tomorrow.
- 13:25Speaker 12: Quiet, Quiet, I tell you I saw the sailing orders
- 13:31Speaker 12: he engineered.
- 13:32Speaker 2: Told me you defeck. We're off of Below Island.
- 13:35Speaker 9: Mister Cranston must be crazy.
- 13:37Speaker 12: Well, mister Cranston may be crazy enough to come here,
- 13:40Speaker 12: but that don't mean we have to stay.
- 13:42Speaker 2: What do you mean we can.
- 13:44Speaker 12: Make mister Cranston turn the ship back.
- 13:46Speaker 2: That's mute me. You can be jailful that.
- 13:48Speaker 12: That may worse than what may happen.
- 13:50Speaker 2: We got to do something.
- 13:51Speaker 6: No cruise on watch tonight least why he's not a
- 13:54Speaker 6: man to sleep.
- 13:55Speaker 9: They can't be far from that curst Velow Island now.
- 13:57Speaker 2: If it is so dark, you can see it off
- 13:59Speaker 2: the port.
- 13:59Speaker 8: Bell that close.
- 14:01Speaker 13: Suppose suppose Captain Blow took command.
- 14:06Speaker 2: But I just I don't want to talk about it.
- 14:10Speaker 12: What's it?
- 14:10Speaker 8: Here's something?
- 14:11Speaker 2: Yes, listen, hear it. Yeah, sounds like a woman.
- 14:17Speaker 13: It's our captain belowd's why that's the warning.
- 14:21Speaker 10: He'll come out of the scene, how any minute?

- 17:39Speaker 2: Do you live on this island?
- 17:44Speaker 14: We understood it uninhabited.
- 17:47Speaker 8: There are people here, but not above the ground. What
- 17:51Speaker 8: do you mean a paris in dark damned dungeons? Yes?
- 17:59Speaker 2: Who are these people?
- 18:00Speaker 8: Survivors of ships wrecked on the rocks here. Anybody that
- 18:06Speaker 8: ever sets foot on this island is never allowed to
- 18:10Speaker 8: leave again. Go away, go away, before it's too late.
- 18:17Speaker 6: I want to know about those prisoners.
- 18:19Speaker 8: Their lives are spent in darkness all day. They work
- 18:25Speaker 8: in the mines, mind at night they're locked in dungeons.
- 18:31Speaker 8: Always darkness, never fresh hair, never light.
- 18:37Speaker 2: Are you a captive here?
- 18:39Speaker 10: Aye?
- 18:40Speaker 8: Captive and slave. I was the skipper of the mellimoas

- 18:54Speaker 8: I've found the secret exit, and still out at night
- 19:00Speaker 8: to watch the sea.
- 19:02Speaker 14: And the hope something I'll have to be done for
- 19:04Speaker 14: these unfortunate people.
- 19:06Speaker 8: There's nothing nothing you can do. Go away, go away.
- 19:12Speaker 6: Can you take me to the dungeons?
- 19:14Speaker 8: I can, but I don't think I should please.
- 19:19Speaker 2: I think I can help.

- 22:59Speaker 12: to all of the mineral wealth of this island.
- 23:01Speaker 2: Your secret is still safe.
- 23:03Speaker 10: I've guarded it for eighteen years.
- 23:06Speaker 12: It's the day I discovered it. No one will ever
- 23:09Speaker 12: share the wealth or no it exists.
- 23:12Speaker 2: And another wreck will be chalked up to the ghost.
- 23:15Speaker 10: Of Captain Below.
- 23:16Speaker 12: Yes, Captain Below has been the most convenient ghost and
- 23:21Speaker 12: most plausible one. Nobody ever doubts him.
- 23:24Speaker 6: It seems, what was that thought?
- 23:28Speaker 2: I heard all that?
- 23:29Speaker 8: I heard it?
- 23:29Speaker 2: Have you the radio key opened? Oh sir, I cut
- 23:31Speaker 2: it before you're learning to me?
- 23:33Speaker 10: You know well, no, mister, and this.
- 23:37Speaker 1: Is not a voice you can cut off with a
- 23:38Speaker 1: flick of a dialect.
- 23:40Speaker 10: Who are you?
- 23:41Speaker 6: I am the shadow Shadow, I've heard of him.
- 23:45Speaker 8: He's the guy I can't see your.
- 23:47Speaker 1: Use of the captain blow legend has had an endy
- 23:50Speaker 1: and day. You've created havoc with your diabolically clever electrical inventions.
- 23:54Speaker 6: Like a monster. You've destroyed men because of your insatiable greed.
- 23:59Speaker 1: Well, Andy, this is your pinny. The sea will be
- 24:03Speaker 1: well rid of you, and poor Captain Baylor will rest
- 24:06Speaker 1: peacefully in his sea grave.
- 24:09Speaker 2: What's up the slaves? They've escaped from their dungeons.
- 24:12Speaker 1: Anddy they're crawling out of the earth to vent that
- 24:14Speaker 1: just hatred on you, Gray.
- 24:16Speaker 10: Burn them up, to burn them to Chris right.
- 24:20Speaker 2: Toobs.
- 24:20Speaker 10: They're all rock. My equipment is drawing.
- 24:22Speaker 1: Complete limscy Andy. Myacht is free of your clever magno beam,
- 24:26Speaker 1: and those people down there will soon be done with you.
- 24:29Speaker 10: I'm getting out out of my way. You're not getting
- 24:31Speaker 10: on that pot.
- 24:32Speaker 2: You got hit on the call without.
- 24:33Speaker 10: I don't care what happens to you.
- 24:38Speaker 1: Run runy the sooner to meet your tomb.
- 24:44Speaker 6: Oh man, Yes, Margo, I'm quite all right.
- 24:47Speaker 14: Oh, thank heaven.
- 24:47Speaker 5: Look, Margo, captives have taken that captain. They've got Yendy.
- 24:53Speaker 5: That would be a little less than the thing well deserves.
- 24:55Speaker 5: And I suppose we'll have to try and save him
- 24:57Speaker 5: for the law. Come along, muggle, we have no time
- 24:58Speaker 5: to lose.
- 25:08Speaker 3: Hell, they've got all those men you saved from the
- 25:10Speaker 3: dungeons birth below deck, mister Cranston.
- 25:12Speaker 2: The poor devils don't know how to thank you.
- 25:14Speaker 8: Take good care of them.
- 25:15Speaker 14: Captain.
- 25:15Speaker 2: Aye, aye, man, you found out yet what.
- 25:18Speaker 14: Happened to the month?
- 25:20Speaker 6: Yes, morgo what of the men? Just told me. But
- 25:23Speaker 6: he waited until we were well out to see first.
- 25:25Speaker 14: What did they do with him?
- 25:26Speaker 5: Well, they didn't pitch them into the sea, as they
- 25:30Speaker 5: told us. They locked them in their own dungeons. And
- 25:34Speaker 5: it's too late for us to do anything about that now,
- 25:37Speaker 5: So we'll have to leave Yandy and his confederates to
- 25:40Speaker 5: suffer as long as their lives last.
- 25:44Speaker 6: The terrible fate they decided for others.
- 25:56Speaker 3: Before you hear a preview of next week's shadow story,
- 25:59Speaker 3: here's John Barker, a Blue cold heating authority, with his
- 26:01Speaker 3: weekly tip on how to save yourselves time, trouble, and
- 26:04Speaker 3: money in furnace. Attention mister Barkley.
- 26:08Speaker 12: Thank you, Ken Roberts, and good afternoon friends. Just about
- 26:11Speaker 12: this time of year, your furnace fire may begin to
- 26:14Speaker 12: act sluggish, with the result that you don't get enough
- 26:17Speaker 12: heat upstairs. Now, in nine out of ten cases, this
- 26:20Speaker 12: is caused by dirt having accumulated in the flu passes.
- 26:24Speaker 12: If you tap the smoke pipe that leads into the
- 26:26Speaker 12: chimney and it sounds solid, then you can be sure
- 26:30Speaker 12: that accumulated dirt is the cause of your trouble. This
- 26:33Speaker 12: should be scraped away, and in extreme cases it may
- 26:36Speaker 12: be necessary to pull the smoke pipe away.
- 26:39Speaker 2: From the chimney.
- 26:40Speaker 12: Another cause of a sluggish fire is dirt in the
- 26:42Speaker 12: fire bed. So I suggest you let your present fire
- 26:46Speaker 12: burn itself almost out, then slowly rebuild it with fresh coal.
- 26:52Speaker 12: You'll be surprised to find out what a difference in
- 26:54Speaker 12: heating results a clean fuel bed can make.
- 26:58Speaker 2: And if you can't locate the.
- 26:59Speaker 12: Source of any other furnished trouble which may arise, call
- 27:02Speaker 12: your Blue Coal dealer. He'll be glad to have a trane.
- 27:06Speaker 12: John Barclay service man inspect your furnace and tell you
- 27:09Speaker 12: immediately how any trouble may be corrected. There's no charge
- 27:13Speaker 12: or obligation on your part for John Barclay service, so
- 27:17Speaker 12: always feel free to call your nearest.
- 27:21Speaker 2: Blue Coal dealer. I thank you.
- 27:29Speaker 3: Next week, Blue Coal brings you one of the strangest
- 27:31Speaker 3: of all Shadow adventures. At this time, we present a
- 27:34Speaker 3: dramatic moment from this new Shadow story. The scene is
- 27:37Speaker 3: a hospital consulting room. Margo is speaking with doctor Anthony.
- 27:42Speaker 14: Doctor DoD You've got to do something. You've got to say,
- 27:46Speaker 14: mister Cranston.
- 27:47Speaker 2: Miss Lane, I hate to tell you this, but Leamont
- 27:51Speaker 2: Cranston can't live through the night.
- 27:59Speaker 3: What strange, frightful melody endangers the life of the Shadow.
- 28:03Speaker 3: Be sure to find out next week when you hear
- 28:05Speaker 3: the Shadow's Newest Adventure.
- 28:13Speaker 2: Today's program is based.
- 28:15Speaker 3: On a story copyrighted about the Shadow magazine. All the
- 28:18Speaker 3: characters and all the places named are fictitious, and his
- 28:21Speaker 3: similarity to person's living or Dead is purely coincidental. The
- 28:24Speaker 3: Shadow magazine is now on sale at your local news stand.
- 28:40Speaker 2: The weed of.
- 28:41Speaker 1: Crime, There's bitter fruit.
- 28:45Speaker 2: Crime does not a shadow load.
- 28:57Speaker 3: Next week, same time, same station, Blue Coal, America's finest anthracite,
- 29:02Speaker 3: will again present another thrilling adventure of the Shadow. Be
- 29:06Speaker 3: sure to listen, and be sure to burn blue coal,
