Sherlock Holmes - Book of Tobit

This episode from the life of Sherlock Holmes will be transmitted to our men and women overseas a short wave and through the worldwide

Facilities of the Armed Forces Radio Service. Petri Wynne brings you

That's the rap bone and Nigel Bruce and the new adventures of block homes

The Petri family the family that took time to bring you good wine invite you to listen to Dr. Watson tell us about an exciting adventure

He shared with his old friend that master detective Sherlock Holmes and why you're getting comfortable

I'd like to tell you about an old old American custom the custom of serving a glass of Sherry wine before dinner

Petri California Sherry you know petri Sherry is to a good meal what the overture is to a good musical comedy or an opera

Before you seduce the dinner table just pour yourself a little glass of petri Sherry and sip it slowly

Look at that beautiful amber color smell the fragrance of those sun ripen grips and taste that fine Sherry flavor

You'll agree with me. I'm sure that petri Sherry is the best beginning a good meal ever had

And say if you happen to like your Sherry dry as I do you a really like petri pale dry Sherry

Believe me you can't go wrong with any wine that bears the name petri the proudest name and the history of American wines

And now let's drop in on the good doctor Watson who's waiting for us in his California ranch house

Good evening doctor. Good evening Mr. Foreman come in and make yourself a toe. Thank you doctor

Sitting here with a light saw if I see you've been getting yourself in the mood for the night Sherlock Holmes story

No my boy I was watching the sunset it's quite a beautiful tonight. I doctor the sun set over an hour ago

Yes I know that you're in full of my head. I know that but at my age a fluorescent title could take a little snooze after dinner isn't it?

Of course he is doctor and how do we settle that how about tonight's story well a very beautiful girl

Figured prominently in this adventure Mr. Foreman her name was Jasmine La Flue

Huh you say that again doctor I know my boy but that was a stage

I think she was a magician assistant unfortunately I never had the opportunity of seeing Jasmine La Flue in the theatre

But I'm told that she was a fascinating figure in tights and in spangles

But Holmes and I first met her however she was the best a little more convention there

And the name them Diana Vennering lady Vennering

Lady Vennering say those tights and spangles really paid off didn't they?

Well how did you and Sherlock Holmes come to meet up with her doctor?

Another spectacular scar Mr. Foreman Miss La Flue became something of a femme fatile in the early 1900s

First of all she met it senior Rosone a magician for whom she was working

On the wedding night he was mysterious this stabbed to death

A few months later met him Rosone very fetching in her widows weaved I'm sure that's the will fit Vennering

And after a whirlwind courtship she met it him

And he got murdered too

He did Mr. Foreman also on the night of the wedding

This time the police found a suspect

It was a certain major beck worth cousin of a dead man and an ardent shooter of the fair Diana

The trial at the old Bailey was one of the most sensational they ever remember

Sherlock Holmes and I were caught on the closing day of the journey but still considering that by

Holmes the joy has been out over eight hours I bet you they can't agree on a verdict there be a new trial

I think not all chap look now they come now

You know there's a strong or a probability of guilt that I'm sure they'll agree that there's insufficient evidence to convict

Oh that's your right just look at Lady Vennering down there to Hilvers

What a what a stunning woman

Yes and a woman of great points and courage

Here it comes

Gentlemen of the jury

Have you arrived at a verdict?

Rehears me Lord I will say you

You find the defendant guilty or not guilty

Not guilty

Exactly come on Watson

Let's get a breath of fresh air

No I was telling you to have some we shouldn't go over and congratulate you in Vennering

Of what?

The fact that our husband's murder has not been found

Oh I suppose you're right

You're going to read the book of curvy to watch me

curvy?

I don't think so when is it published?

Well to the whole hour time or chap

No testament story

Whatever made you think of it

It's a moment

Well it's so remarkably

Apposite for the case Lady Vennering

He deals with behind it purely in the city's murder

Seven of them in a minute

Correct it?

It was a murder

A jealous demon by the name of Asma Dears

He's trying to have husbands on their wedding nights

You know judging by the verdict just now

Make your vehicle as just as the Asma Dears

Who would have you call him in this case?

The murder of the man

He's a murderer

Lady Vennering

Such a murder of the man

Who's a murder of the man

Thank you

You're not behind here

Thank you

Thank you

Well huh?

What does it say?

Oh

All right

Here we are

Listen to this

The Vennering winner of the murder of the man says that she will marry the suspect

Lady Vennering told newspaper reporters this afternoon that if Major Effectlet is acquitted

She will marry him before he gets out

From her soul home to the positive sparkle in your eyes

You read it by her

I must admit the lady fascinates me all chap

I hope before she becomes involved in any further prejudice

That we may have the opportunity of meeting her

And something tells me that we will

Some newspapers are certainly having a field there over the Vennering case home

You can read them

No, I didn't want them

There's a complete life history of Lady Vennering and one of them was photographs

It's...

Well, they're interesting

Really?

What are you doing over there home?

Looking out the window

Ah, yeah, it's here

Are you expecting anybody home?

No, come over here, old fellow

Well, it's a clergyman

Yes, a very educated one

It's the way he's pacing up and down

And looking up at our window too

Right, Joe

What eye?

Yes, there's a fanatical look about him

Which suggests either the matter at the stake or the inquisitor lighting the faggots

Mrs. Hudson's letting him in now

Well, I'll be interested to know what he's come to us about

And here footsteps on the stairs

Oh, I'll do it, have a look

I'll do it, sir

Come along in with you

That's all right, thank you, Mrs. Hudson

You'll need to show that home

I am, sir, and this is my colleague Dr. Watts

My name is Whalen, the Reverend Arthur Whalen

How'd you do it, sir?

Sit down

Could you and tell me what I can do for you?

Thank you

Mr. Holmes, this...

This is a very difficult subject to boat

In fact, it's only after intense personal conflict that I've been able to force myself to come to

May I ask you, are you familiar with a book of turrets?

You're talking about that yesterday, huh?

I see that you've come to consult me about the venerary case

But that's amazing

How did you know?

Has Lady Venner been in touch with you?

No, sir, but...

I have to meet her with a book of turrets

Lady Vennering's case first that resembles that of the woman's setter and the Old Testament story

More closely than you realize, Mr. Holmes

Did you tell her that before each one of Lady Vennering's husbands was killed, they received a threatening note?

Yes, I recall that from the client

Signed in some sort of gibberish, wasn't it?

No, doctor

Yesterday, I was permitted for the first time to examine one of these books

The pattern gibberish was in reality ancient Hebrew writing

Indeed

Were you ever to translate it?

Yes, Mr. Holmes

In effect, it's certain

If you go through with this marriage, your hours are numbered

And it was signed as more days

The name of the jealous demon who strangled husbands in the book of tidbit

Exactly

Have you come to me, sir?

I want you to talk to Diana to Lady Vennering

To tell her she must not go through with this new marriage

No, she's stalking her, Mr. Holmes

I have argued with her, prayed with her, implored her to realize her danger

But she is adamant

I'm afraid I feel extremely presentuous in giving her my advice

No, Mr. Holmes, I have prepared the way for you

You could ensure her realize her danger

And she is willing to see you say?

Willing and anxious

Very well

But I'd like to ask you a few questions, but...

Anything, Mr. Holmes?

What is your interest in her?

She's a member of my truck

She needs a guidance

Having further?

No, Mr. Holmes?

I believe that you performed a great ceremony at both of her previous weddings

Yes

Are you proposing to officiate the ceremony if she met his major equipped?

Well, I...

I don't know

I'm hoping that marriage will never take place

And so I want you to help, Mr. Holmes

Where does the lady live?

47, back this spare

Hey, well, a doctor Watson and I will call on us this afternoon

No, delighted to

I've doubted if I can do that myself

In fact, Diana might speak more flu, if I'm not

But here's my card

You've no way to get in touch with me if you want to

And it was her?

Good day to you gentlemen

And I am pray to you in your debt

Good day, good day

Mr. Holmes, I...

I can't believe that Mr. Wayland's motives are entirely impersonal

How can I, old chap?

Well, I love you, man

I was thinking of a book I've told it once

You too

In that the role of protector, the role I've just been asked to take, was played by the Archangel Raphael

I can't help feeling what's in that I'm making distinct sprites in my profession

This is Sherlock Holmes, I'm so glad to meet you

How'd you do, Lady Van Reng?

May I introduce my old friend Dr. Watson?

How are you, Dr. Watson?

I'm well prepared to meet you, Lady Van Reng

Let's sit down, chap, we're here just in time for tea

Thank you

And you know why we're here, of course

Naturally

Mr. Wayland came round here as soon as he'd left you

You were to persuade me to look after my muffler fairs

While he takes care of my immortal ones

Isn't that it?

He takes care of my charming foot, Lady Van Reng

Jumping

May I say, Mr. Holmes, that I'm flattered that a man of your eminence should be sufficiently interested to bother about

You wonder as to make you learn it properly, Van Reng

Though I may mention that if your problem had been as simple as Mr. Wayland made it out to be, I might have been otherwise engaged

For being very frank and a little mysterious

Are you suggesting that Mr. Wayland didn't tell you everything?

I am

And I hope you will be more candid with me

Sherlock Holmes, I like you

You're most refreshing

Uh, Milken showdown you tea

Ah, just okay, no

Here you are

How about you, Dr. Watson?

Oh, Mrs. M. Wayland, eh?

Thank you better

And now, Mr. Holmes, perhaps you'll tell me why you think that you haven't been told everything?

But when I answered that, the Lady Van Reng, I wonder if I might ask you some questions

But of course, anything

When your first husband, uh, Seeros Sonny, was killed, did the police find any suspects?

Ah, yes, one

Friend and goat, yeah, a young man who had been an assistant in armotions act

Uh, stupid, croaking boy who thought he was mad with me

But of course, Inspector Lestrade had to release him

There was no evidence

Mr. Charles, well, you can bet that he arrested him

The boy was innocent

Well, you know, the founder of your husband's effects, wasn't it?

Yes

And it was signed in Hebrew with the name Asmodeus

Uh, that perhaps you're not familiar with the Book of Two

Oh, yes, yes, I am

I'm familiar with it, Lady Van Reng

Uh, how did you know them, the Pehebrew let her signify that name?

Mr. Wayland translated them for me

Oh, I see

And also read me the Book of Two a bit

He's always been particularly fond of that book

Perhaps because it illustrates his own ideas on the dangers of madness

Don't tell us that he hasn't seen one of the warning notes

Yes, today

For some, Lady Van Reng

I read in the papers that you intend to marry

Major Bequist

And the man who has just been tried your late husband's murder

Yes, Mr. Holmes

Funny you better marry a mayor

But it praises me?

Doesn't it occur to you that, uh, a great deal of comfort

Will it cause?

Also that Major Bequist's life is in obvious danger?

Of course it occurs to be my dear man

That's because of two tragic marriages

Am I to spend the rest of my life alone?

As Mr. Wayland would have me do?

I'm young, alive

Peter, what are you doing here?

I just arrived back in England today, Diana

What's the side of it about you marrying Dequist?

Peter, I have a guest

Mr. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson

This is for my comers

One of our most promising young painters

I am a true true

When I left England, you left me

And I you

I come back and what do I find?

You're planning to marry Bequist

Well, I won't stand for it

If you think you can throw me over like some silly boy

You're very much mistaken

I can tell things, you know

I can tell lots of things

Get out of here, Peter

Get out

Say hi, Emma

And don't come back until you've learned manners

And discretion

But Diana

Get out

I'm sorry, gentlemen

But are there any more questions you wanted to ask me, Mr. Holmes?

One lady, Bennering

Where is your fiance, Mr. Bequist?

He's upstairs

I'm letting him stay here until the scandal of the trial has died down

I must see him at once

And once, right home, he's in no danger until the marriage takes place

The marriage has taken place, Watson

And we'll find very much mistaken

It makes you think so, Mr. Holmes

You're much too discreet of intelligent lady, Bennering

To let him stay here in your house unless you were already married

We were married this morning

But we planned to keep the factor secret for a few months until the scandal had died down

Now, Doctor, please

I'll ring for the butler and ask him to come down

May I ask Madam, who married you?

The Reverend Arthur Queen

Oh, and all the time he talked to us today and you perfect the world

This marriage has taken place

You must have just come from it

I don't trust that, man, home

Oh, there you are, Watson

Oh, there you are, Watson, I just rang for you

Uh, well, you asked me to beg for you

Excuse me, you ma'am

I was just on my way to telephone the police

The police?

What do you mean?

It's made to beg for the lady

He's been stabbed to death in his bath

Oh, this is backwards murder, too

Hudson, I'll telephone the police

And now I'm rather well acquainted with Inspector Lestrod

Excuse me, Stephanie

A grateful visit, huh?

A third husband married on his wedding day

But what a woman, Watson, she's superfaculant

Not enough to me, huh?

What courage?

What uncomfortable spirit in the face of a fresh tragedy?

Watson, she fascinates me

I haven't seen such a splendid female

Since we solved that case for the Chibohinha

Doctor Watson's story will continue in just a few seconds

Time enough to remind you that the easiest way to make good food taste better

is to serve that good food with a swell petri wine

And there are two petri wines in particular just made to go with food

Petri, California, so turn, a delicate white wine with a subtle flavor that's perfect with chicken and fish

And petri, California, burgundy

A hearty, rich red wine

It's out of this world with any meat or meat dish

So if you want to know just how good a cook you are

Serve your good food with petri wine made to go with it

A petri burgundy or a petri so turn

Two swell petri meal-time wines

And now back to tonight's new Sherlock Holmes adventure

The famous detective and his old friend, Dr. Watson,

have become involved in the affairs of Price-Married Diana

One-time magician's assistant

Each of her husbands has been mysteriously murdered on his wedding day

The latest murder occurring at the same day that Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson have brought into the case

As we rejoin our story, it's a month later

And for some obscure reason, Sherlock Holmes seems to have lost interest in the case

Though not in the beautiful day

Mr. Holmes

Yes, the start hits over a month now since Major Beckless was murdered

And we haven't found a single clue to it

Do you expect me to supply the deficiencies of stuff and yard?

Well, it's unlikely not to help us, Mr. Holmes

And after all, you and Dr. Watson were in the house when it happened

If you ask me, the murderers, either macomus, that Irish painter, or the clergyman, wait them

What do you think?

As far as I'm concerned, the case has closed the start

And I wish you'd stop bothering me

I don't think I am, nothing but a tickting machine

Mr. Holmes, whatever has come over you

Holmes, you're not going out again this evening, are you?

I'm afraid so, Sherlock Holmes

Well, this will be the fourth night in a row

It's hoping that we might have a nice, quality evening

One of the four

Oh, I'm sorry Watson, but I promise to take Guy Anna to the washroom at Olympia

I am simply honed by midnight

Mr. Holmes, yes, Mr. Wellen

You are seeing all together too much of Diana

She seems to be completely under your spell

But you introduced it to her in the first place

With a request that I keep an eye on her

I made a great mistake

As her spiritual protector, I'm afraid I must ask you to stop seeking her

And I'm afraid I must ask you, sir

And mind your own business

Mr. Holmes, have you seen the paper

That that violinist is always playing at the Albert Hall tonight?

I know I haven't looked at the paper today

Oh, it's looked absolutely much too long

I'm afraid I can't hold you up

No, I'm taking Diana to the French made of Delius together

And here it's a charming musical comedy

Look here, Holmes, we've been friends for many years now

Very cool, hello

And I think I'm entitled to speak to you straight from the show there

Of course, you are Watson

Very well then, this Diana Beckwood

Oh, yes, your own business, I suppose

But I can't bear to see how making such a fool of you

Even in acting your work at Palace, did you better?

You get about as old as a young fellow 20

What's coming over here, Holmes?

Stop, stop tasting a bottle, Jack, will you answer down?

In fact, it might be a good idea

Or if you thought I'd yourself for the never-branding

From the pantalors there

And what I'm about to tell you

Maybe something of the fuck

And Watson...

Diana and I are getting married tomorrow

What did you say, Holmes?

And I'm getting married tomorrow

But you're insane

Oh, that's not very flattering

What's in any way I don't see why you should be so surprised?

You will have served madly and let me speak once

Didn't you?

If you Holmes have confirmed woman

No, no, no, no, no, no, my dear, what's wrong?

Indeed, no

You will remember, in our adventure, that you titled

A Scandal in Bohemia

I am met a lady that I have often referred to as a...

Oh, the woman

You mean I really had one, but you were a criminal

Exactly, and yet Diana has the same magnificent characteristics

Forchie intelligence, courage, and uncomfortable states

The Holmes three of her habitants murdered on their wedding nights

They are proposing to be a fall

Oh, rubbish, my dear fellow, because tragedy has attended her previous

marriages, she should have gone through life alone.

Holmes, you, you really mean it, don't you?

Of course I do.

I think I will have a nipper, Brenner.

Oh, go on, take it.

So bad, your fellow will continue to see a lot of each other.

Diana's very fond of you, you know.

Oh, man.

Yeah.

Who's going to perform the Selmer?

Not the, the Reverend, Mr. Wailer.

Oh, no, no, no, no, we decided in view of Diana's previous marriages,

that he might prove to be a thicoller, well, unlucky.

A churchman named Belney will officiate, Wailer, and of course,

insists on being present up the same.

What time is the wedding tomorrow?

Two o'clock, oh, well, I shouldn't have mentioned this before.

I hope you're cutaway coat and top hat are in a good state preservation.

You will be a pretty prominent figure of the Selmer, you know.

You mean that, well, I'm in detective Sherlock Holmes gets married.

Who else could be his best man, but he's old friend Dr. Watson.

He's elementary, my dear fellow, elementary.

I now pronounce who man and wife, and those whom God had joined together,

let no man put a sander.

Hello, I'm going to claim the privilege of the best man and give you kids.

Of course, you shall, doctor.

It's you, Holmes, you, you, you, you, it's lucky for us.

Of course I am, oh, sir.

Sherlock, I'm going upstairs to change my dress now.

Very well, Diana. I'll be up shortly.

I'll see you later, doctor Watson.

Very well, Mrs. Holmes.

And that was all I looked for, what's known for the wedding?

Very today, oh, yeah, what's the matter?

Well, just for the ceremony, I received one of those warning notes signed by Asmodeiros.

Oh, you'd better be careful, Holmes.

I think I'll slip out and have a pipe or two on the matter.

Yes.

Look out to my guests for me, we'll do it.

If your eyes open, you've got ears.

I will indeed.

Oh, these worms too, Ellen.

Would you care for glass of champagne, or punch your tummy, or other?

Thank you, no doctor.

I'm in no mood for celebration.

I'm certain that Diana has made a shocking mistake.

I only came here in the last minute of 10th to dissuade her.

Now that I've failed, I shall leave.

Good day, sir.

Doctor Watson.

Oh, hello, McCormick.

Where's Mr. Holmes?

He's back in a few minutes.

Would you care for a glass of champagne, sir?

Well, thank you.

I should like to drink a toast to the pair.

I've been in love with Diana for years, you know, but...

Well, she wouldn't marry me, and...

I suppose I might as well make the best of it.

I must say, your friend Sherlock Holmes seems like a splendid fellow.

He is indeed MacGermus.

In fact, I may say...

What's up, excuse me, sir?

Alright, Holmes, I'm coming.

I'm here.

What else am I to happen?

Follow me, knock the door behind you.

Allow me to introduce you to the demon Asmodea Swats.

Unfortunately, at the moment, he isn't a faint.

Good lord.

It's Diana.

Exactly.

Always an infectious woman.

She made the mistake of trying to stab me with that knife.

So I bent her to strap up a suitcase.

She didn't allow for the well-knitter, in which I was watching her.

You mean you...

Or I did, Othello.

The problem was to find a poof.

I first suspected her when I knew that she had been a magician's assistant.

The key to the profession of magic is misdirection.

And these murders have been a perfect example of misdirection motive.

How do you mean, Holmes?

Well, by creating Asmodea's.

Thanks to the well-meaning stories of Van.

The Reverend Mr. Wellen, who's theological libraries.

She must have covered the Hebrew signature.

She focused the murders on jealousy,

concealing the fact that the one person with a perfect motive was herself.

The widow, who was to inherit it.

Oh, I think she'd been caught before.

I should have said.

I'd double this forever.

She left no clues, except an indirect one that I once studied.

But the lightiest person to be able to approach.

A bright, gromance suspected and stabbed in is his bride.

Now I wish you'd see if you can revive Othello.

When the police get here, I should like Mrs. Holmes

to be in full possession of all her faculties.

Well, Holmes, I must say I never expected to be driving back

with you to Baker Street on your wedding day.

I can't tell you.

I'll figure out what you really thought that I deserved it, didn't you?

That's, I wish you'd tell me the truth.

No, I can't tell anyone.

Not even you.

If the faintest shadow of suspicion had ended her mind, I'd never afford it.

Well, it seems to be you paid a pay high price, Holmes.

You told me you made a will in her favour,

supposing something happened to you before her trial.

She'd get the money, you know?

Overwill or not.

That was worth this.

I took Diana.

There was a holographic will and perfect about it.

Well, what do you mean there's a holographic will?

A will drawn up to one's own handwriting on a piece of dirty, plain paper.

Such a document is quite legal,

but I do mine up on a paper with a little paper.

That made it invalid.

Well, I see the defector means that you are married, Holmes.

I really thought you completely didn't die, Watson.

Didn't the name of the clergyman who married us suggest anything to you?

Reverend Verly?

No, and why not, should it?

Well, Verly was a French painter of some note.

It also happens to have been a great uncle of mine and, um, microbes.

You mean that, if your brother, microbes was a clergyman?

I mean that microbes was dismayed as a clergyman.

And the very convincing Javi did too.

A more satisfactory clergyman than the Reverend Mr. Wailer note,

but whose possible complicity may compel him to answer some very awkward question.

Hey, you're not married.

But myself, Holmes, I don't know what to say.

Then I suggested you say nothing, my dear child.

Let's just sit back quietly as two good friends can

and rule out the multiplicity of human affairs.

Well, Dr. Tonight's adventure was really a little extraordinary to say the least.

Holmes, you're had a narrow escape.

A doubler now, Mr. Foreman, doubler now.

He not only skipped the jaws of death,

but he also escaped the clutches of Matribeler.

Actually, the story had a happy ending for everybody, but later venering.

Uh-oh, Jasmine La Flore.

What about that artist, fellow McCormus? How did he take it?

Well, very well, very well indeed.

In fact, in gratitude, he even painted Holmes' portrait.

Okay, exactly. Good like this.

They're one of those modern artists who paint his impressions of a person rather than a portrait.

What do you mean?

Well, now, let me see if he were to paint his impression of you.

Oh, you'd probably end up by looking like a bottle of Petri Wain in his portrait jacket.

Oh, I had, Dr. He continues me all you want,

but I'll still rave about Petri Wain.

And why not?

The facts bear me out that Petri Wain most certainly is good wine.

After all, the Petri family knows all there is to know about the art of turning plump,

sun ripen grapes, and the fragrant delicious wine.

That's because they've been making wine for generations.

Ever since they started the Petri business way back in the 1800s.

And because the making of Petri Wain is a family affair,

the family has been able to hand down from father to son,

from father to son, all their skill and knowledge and experience.

And believe me, that adds up to plenty.

So, no matter what type of wine you prefer,

one to serve with meals or a wine for any special occasion,

choose one of the fine Petri wines.

You can't miss because Petri took time to bring you good wine.

And now, Dr. Watten, what story do you have lined up for us next week?

Well, now, let me see, Mr. Fallman.

I'm going to tell you about a strange adventure that began

by taking a wild cab ride through the moonlit streets of London.

And ended homes in me, being tapped in a luxuriously furnished cellar,

the lower furniture warehouse, down by the waterfront.

Tonight, Sherlock Holmes' adventure is written by Dennis Green,

an Anthony Balcher, and is based on an incident in the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's story,

the adventure of Shoscombe Old Place.

Mr. Rathbone appears to the courtesy of Metro Golden Mayor and Mr. Bruce,

to the courtesy of Universal Pictures, where they are now starring in the Sherlock Holmes series.

The Petri wine company of San Francisco, California,

invites you to tune in again next week, same time, same station.

All the Petri family took the time to bring you such good wine.

So when you eat and when you cook, remember Petri wine.

To make good food, better remember.

Pet, pet, petri wine.

This is Bill Foreman, saying good night for the Petri family.

Sherlock Holmes comes to you from our Hollywood studios.

This is the mutual broadcasting system.
