[Music]

you

[Music]

hey sir what are you doing there

rummaging around in my fire oh that I'm

having trouble with a new book and I

thought I might find some snappy

material down here have a grape you

fellas don't know how lucky you are

you'll put on a case the murders not a

character in that handwriting not the

Agusta stack as far as I know there's

only one as one of the heaviest

taxpayers of this city I demand the

services of the police said the

detective to my house as soon as you

receive this sure he doesn't look like a

detective she has her own nerve as I

don't want my household to know I am

consulting the police have the man

announce himself as a tree surgeon since

some of my trees are really afflicted

with borers letter or the crank and hole

we got down here that don't look like a

detective gallery oh not me I'm too busy

going over son you can tell you might

you might get some material for a new

novel walking right into it at night

yeah and if she has any smoke that rates

police attention why come back and

report to me good morning mr. stack I

have a tree borer yeah you look more

like the brush man

don't manage what you get and I have no

more of your impression than salad you'd

think I was your slave instead of your

daughter go up to your room at once

heaven knows I'm old enough to have more

than $10 months allowance leave the room

and you better answer the door Marty

I have an appointment with mrs. stack

huh good morning mother

do you know what time it is I've been

having a little trouble with my watch

lately don't be impudent you'll be at

the hospital at night every morning or

I'll remove you from your job where were

you last night at the theater

well what do you want I'm the man about

the borers what about the trees oh I

didn't just say so come in

you haven't believed yet fathers don't

look like a policeman Wow sit down

inspector clean set me

unlike most women I generally come to

the point I want my hospital secretly

investigated things are happening there

that I neither like nor understand such

as I don't trust the medical director

dr. Jenny he disappears too often from

the hospital no in it I believe that's

why my sister died while he was giving

her a treatment he left her to answer an

emergency call he said but there was no

such emergency he's simply vanished

surely mr. stack you can hardly suspect

the doctor in charge of your hospital

then why was he opposed to an autopsy

why was she cremated in such indecent

haste but if she the body has been

already cremated I hardly see how I want

Jenny watched by the police in the

hospital secretly I see I'll report to

inspector Queen good morning mr. stack

well well I can understand it looks like

a clear case of spite against dr. Jenny

that Augustus stack is as unco Ziya

party as I ever met up with it's an

interesting household though everybody

hating the old girl you can positively

feel hatred seeping all over practically

in layers not bad

maybe I gives it the book yeah but you

know I can't detail a man just to go

there and investigate bad feelings still

I think it's the matter that should be

the Pinto I looked look again

be a sport go and prop yourself up in

the stack hospital and be a patient not

on your life dad I'm a busy man I'll go

on take it over no thanks I thought it's

out of the question

automobile accident it's doctor damn

operated on her may I ask fire mrs. Tech

one at you here mr. Cruthers I hope her

condition serious a fractured femur is

no picnic but she has a very good chance

I asked your question mr. Cruthers oh

yes it was on the matter of your anemia

concentrate discovery

mrs. stack feels very strongly I already

know how very strongly miss Astec field

unfortunately my opposition is equally

strong my formula goes to the Medical

Association has its ethical and proper

legally the discovery belongs to her

even a lawyer can be wrong on occasion

mr. Cruthers but not on this occasion

dr. Johnny I have their written

agreement between you and mr. stack

I'm not interested in the vagueness of

legal terminology yes there in black and

white in plain language look at Clause

12 where it states that all formulas

developed in the hospital laboratory

belong to the hospital and the hospital

belongs to mrs. stack there's no other

possible legal interpretation the

formula is hers excuse me could you tell

me no can you tell me why this little

elevators with doors that don't work No

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Applause]

[Applause]

pardon me how dare you race down these

Carter's what are you here for duties I

like my boys too bad you didn't lose the

use of your limb yeah look at you I'd be

ashamed a man of your age making a

public spectacle of myself well what'd

you expect me to do stay in the room

there were the places on fire you'd give

up whiskey you might get the use of your

voice back there's no fire but you heard

or saw with a pearl motor squad I see

I'm going to your room and undress

properly and go to bed yes ma'am

[Applause]

who are they using that poem over on

mrs. Beck she suffocated after operation

they tried hard to fish her respiration

that were too late

it means she's dead what else could it

mean

come in don't be sure I got some

terrific news I know you're gonna tell

me the fire's out no mrs. stacks dead

huh

you'll have to bring in the body to make

me believe that the fact she suffocated

after an operation I just came from her

room what like please give me police

headquarters

apparently she left into a coma run

suffocated while her face was turned to

the pillar she seemed to be coming along

so nicely

he was remembers he wasn't a young woman

even so mr. Fox have you been with the

patient constantly I didn't leave her

for a minute her pulse was good she was

breathing naturally I'm sure you were

not at fault folks thank you doctor no

family be notified oh this is the most

regrettable occurrence the shock of the

accident plus the operation was simply

more than she could stand I'm sorry to

say doc I'm sure everything possible was

done for of course if you and mr. stack

like an autopsy oh no no no no the

publicity would be very distasteful and

harmful to the hospital I'll issue the

death certificate thank you doctor

and there's no reason for delaying the

funeral arrangements I'm sure that

mother would want to be cremated we'd be

going done

what do you think of the flowers you

didn't have to go and buy flowers for me

I didn't buy them I found them on the

doorknob listen stack told me that you

want to get out of here hey what's the

idea of smashing a guy up and running

out on him well you look so peaceful

under that tree I didn't think you were

hurt I thought you were dead but it

ain't your fault I wasn't now boys don't

start hollering a guy can only do the

best he can you know

are you think of that Hey

you'd better start to think of a way of

getting me out of here where's mr.

stacks office right over there

I insist upon knowing who sent for the

police your mother she demanded that we

investigate this hospital and now she is

dead if you don't mind we'll continue

with the investigation

finished with the examination they'll be

down in a minute

good now mr. stack this is ridiculous

dr. Janney and dr. Dunn have already

examined the body an issue dis death

certificate mr. Fox

did you leave mr. stacks room anytime

after the operation Wow

none of our nurses would dare do such a

thing if you don't mind I'm questioning

miss Fox

dig here miss Fox no I didn't I was

there all the time

yes Williams I find the deceased died of

asphyxia just as we discovered dr.

Johnny what I found the hyoid bone on

throat broken which shows the deceased

did not die of accidental smothering but

was strangled to death

miss Fox

how could anyone her sneaked into mr.

Spex room and kill her if you were there

all the time

I've been up all last night on a very

difficult case I dozed off for a while

oh I see what about the man in five

eleven well what about it he was brought

in in the same ambulance with mrs. stack

he said he'd been hit by the same hit

and run driver I heard mrs. stack asked

her son to investigate the man and so I

did I found him an innocent victim of

the same crazy driver really spores

you've got to 511 and get acquainted

with that man well now wait a minute I

can't allow that I can't have the

patient's annoyed by the police it will

be very bad for the hospital don't worry

wanted to call the inspector but he

locked me up and ran out on me well

naturally you couldn't expect him to

stay with a body and there's a please

already suspecting the murder whose

murder mrs. stacks of course if it

hadn't been for that he wouldn't have

brought me here to face miss Fox to find

out whether I was really a nurse or not

what on earth you're talking about

heaven that's perfectly clear it was

foolish of me to say I was mrs. stacks

nurse but what else could I do without

giving you away

I don't Mickey I know you've had a shock

but try and pull yourself together and

calm down and we'll get to the bottom of

this now who brought you here what the

man took the shot at you of course and

you told him you were mrs. tax nurse

really I'll read was the other one I

told the first one the other one the

first one why don't you listen the

person who ran into me when he was

running around the hospital on a

stretcher with a broken leg I had to say

I was a nurse and I couldn't say I work

for mr. stacks so I I said I work for

you after mrs. stack was dead that was

brilliant

well got me here if you're just ahead of

you anyway well go on back I'm very

excited so he pulled a gun on me and

told me to push him in to supply me I

felt another gun in my ribs I'm neither

gun and the other one came in to supply

room and told me to whistle so I was on

that made him madder than ever well the

matter with you as plain as day

they're mixed up with mr. stack somehow

and they're afraid to be blamed for so

after we got the first one down the

basement the other one called the mob to

get him out of there and then took me

over to confront miss box to find out

what I was really she or not what are we

gonna do I'm gonna call that before I go

completely nuts fine say after I'd wrap

the whole case up for you

right every time I want to go and if

they somebody has to die everybody's

privileged you'll had a tough night not

at all I don't want to miss anything

what are you doing here so late well I

frequently catch up with my work late at

night and naturally after the events of

the day I couldn't sleep I see yeah well

I asked dr. Jana to meet me here would

you kindly call his home and see if he's

left oh I'm sure he's on his way if you

wanted him thank you

you stay here sit down there and stay

put

oh hello Doctor they're waiting for you

in the office thank you Stu Queen may I

congratulate you on the miraculous

recovery of your voice oh thanks thanks

doctor I found the trouble with justice

something temporary too bad it wasn't

something permanent what did your father

mess

yes my slip showing no if to the skies

I'm in on this case but they won't admit

it wait

you dare to fire this Beldar pen I never

saw it before

looks like a woman's belt it is longer

miss Potts was strangled with it and

then left hanging where the court of a

rope in her battles is horrible

yeah hang it was made to look like

suicide yeah but the murderer made a bad

mistake he forgot the marks the

strangling of the belt would remain

after death the idea was obviously to

make it appear that mr. Fox was guilty

of mrs. stacks death and then committed

suicide for fear of being arrested but I

can't believe mr. Fox murdered mr. stack

that's the whole point

she didn't but if she written the room

with her all the time she wasn't the

murderers second bad mistake he

overlooked this fortunately she shoved

it under the blotter before she let him

in what is it it's a note she was

writing to me and then if you will find

that she did leave mr. stacks room for

at least 10 minutes to make a

long-distance telephone call

yes see for yourself I'll take your word

for it we checked with the operator and

established the exact time of the call

but may I often why you're telling all

this to me

because at the time of mrs. stacks death

which was murder number one coincides

exactly with the time that you left this

office to answer an emergency call no

what was that emergency call I don't

seem to recollect yes emergency call for

dr. Johnny dr. Johnny wanted in surgery

he'll have to excuse me gentlemen

just a moment do you always stay in your

office late at night he fainted what

happened find out it was calling dr.

Jani in surgery you said there's no one

in surgery

emergency call for dr. Johnny dr. Johnny

wanted in surgery hey dad look at this

this buzzer starts that call emergency

call for dr. Johnny dr. Johnny wanted in

surgery obviously a gag he uses when he

wants to get away to commit murder miss

Tracey perhaps you can tell us what it

was dr. Johnny

it's an unusual heart condition he

suffers from he's managed to keep it

from everyone but me until now he'll be

alright after laying down for a while

here's his alibi for the time of mrs.

tax murder what do you mean the attack

is his alibi Ricky I told you to keep

your nose out of this did I just just

have over you know sometimes out of the

mouths of babes is even seconds and some

women come words of wisdom no miss

super-sleuth what just what do you mean

by his attackers his alibi well it's bad

business for a doctor if people find out

he has a tax where he might flop down mm

isn't it yeah professionally she says

that he has them often and has to lie

down to get open

nice deduction Nikki used this

contraption to get him away when he felt

an attack coming on he can talk now

inspector well Nikki we see if you're

right come on

well it looks they're not going where's

dr. Jenny alcohol relieved of course

they're not he didn't do it peace had a

man in jail right now

why they did it about it the man with a

broken leg the one who came into the

hospital mrs. back but I thought mr.

stark had a talk with that man had found

him completely and innocent my hat and

why was he in such a panic to get out of

the hospital uh uh you know it's plenty

I hope the police will make him holler

you imagine my feeling when i well super

spooky hunch was right but I am afraid

that man went to a lot of trouble to

conceal his ailments I guess he was

afraid mr. stack of fire me she found

out who told me to sit out there and

stay put how could I tell you we're

gonna break your long record of gumming

things up and go as our main suspect

you know when Curtis told me that mrs.

stack had will most of her fortune to

Jenny and leaving only a small annuity

to the children what he seemed honestly

unaware of that fact so we were barking

up the wrong tree

but will you need me anymore tonight no

you can go I would stay with dr. Jenny

but really I'm just dropping on my feet

I'll send another nurse to come on

William just calling to me

John what's the matter what's happened

news what is it well they came to the

hospital tonight to arrest dr. Jeff is

that's something to get so upset about

well they change their minds

here in this house but I heard the

inspectors say that they've gone off to

dr. Jani because your mother's will was

chiefly in his favor

what yes in his favor leaving you and

Alice a very small amount but that

doesn't seem possible mother hated Jani

well he wasn't exactly fun you and Alice

either well I suppose she doesn't

heritage you because she found out you

wanted to marry me

how could you found out no one knew not

even now as we were too careful it

doesn't make sense

the inspector must be wrong no I'm

afraid the news came from brothers and

Shirley Crowder's would know about your

mother's Willie

it certainly looks like the end of

everything for you doesn't it job I hope

it isn't the end between us

impossible to hang a man of his size

while he was alive and kick'n

so what suicide not murder suicide he

beat us to it

I'll get you well what do you find we

had Thomason days in jail he came home

last night and knocked himself off

because he knew that we would eventually

pin it on him well then we can all go

get a cup of coffee

Oh good evening

you sit down there and stay put yes I

said port

this Jean stack kills mother and nurse

then slay self yes what about it

stack didn't kill miss Fox because he

had an alibi for the time of the murder

who's his alibi me don't you remember

dad we chased Thomas all over the

hospital we came back to stacks office

and he was still there with dr. Dunn he

didn't leave until I left to go to mr.

Fox's apartment that's right son

and if he didn't kill Fox Fox was killed

to prevent her from naming the murderer

this could be a break quite well the

murderer to sleep I can feel he's

sitting pretty and that he is Janet I

was right from the start

the morning was still money how do we

know he was telling the truth but he

said he didn't know what the will

contain really go after Jenny and bring

him here firstly right away yes

inspector

good luck dad hey remember me what

happened oh well I finally convinced him

stack wasn't dead he's back to Jani

again oh that's ridiculous dr. Jenny

doesn't look like a murderer you never

know he's a very pleasant and talented

man there's plenty against him are you

gonna stand there nothing arrest him for

something he didn't do Niki I'm not the

police department I tell you what you go

in and make a complaint to dad see how

far you'll get oh so you think it's

funny to persecute a man like dr. Jani

you could stay right here to have a good

life all by yourself

I simply had the feeling that I got your

address in the hospital won't you come

in

Oh a nice place you have here oh thank

you I hope I didn't interrupt your

dinner not at all I was just having

coffee won't you join me I could

certainly use one oh well sit down will

you

excuse me

in this Traci I came to tell you that

the police have reopened the staircase

really not according to the evening

papers do take cream and sugar please

but they've changed their minds and

they're trying to pin it on dr. Johnny

again I know you're on his side from the

way you acted last night well I was

hoping that you might help me find a way

to clear him I'd love to I just can't

imagine how I wonder after all the

doctor Janey is guilty cause not what

I'm wondering is why Jon's dad killed

himself exactly what he did you know I

have a hunch but somebody told him those

gangsters have been arrested and if we

could find out who that somebody is

we might have the real killer may I have

a cigarette oh please do I'm sorry

charmonique is really all of these keys

were found in miss Fox's handbag we know

what they're all for except this one

he's ever seen before

take her girl now I happened wait a

minute dad she was carrying it around in

her bag it must be the key to a friend's

house where's the rest of that stuff

they brought down from the apartment

you're wasting your time

I don't do you happen to know how

friendly these two women were dr. Jenny

I'm afraid I'm not well enough

acquainted with any of my staff to know

anything about their friendships dad

bear borrow that key I'd like to try

something certainly take them all

I take Billy with me yes take him out of

here I want to finish this investigation

naturally I'd rather you didn't mention

anything about my friendship with John

stay of course I won't be too

embarrassing for it to come out now our

relationship was very casual of course

yes yes I can see that well I guess I'd

better be going oh I'm sorry

Oh

I'm leaving on my vacation Oh too bad

they didn't give it to you before all

those terrible things happened what do

you mean oh uh mrs. stack was murdered

before miss Fox was killed for John

stack committed suicide yes yes then I'd

have missed all those dreadful things

you're not going on a vacation you're

running away you'll kill mrs. stack so

that you could marry her son and come

into her money really miss Porter your

accusation was comical then you kill

miss Fox because she saw you come out of

mrs. tax room after you did it you

should be writing every queens box

you've a marvelous imagination

imagination maybe and then you drove

John stack to suicide by telling him

those gangsters have been arrested

you knew it because I told you myself

you've said enough get in that room

first don't you Nestor

why hutch was right

it's your shout tour so she'll know

we're here guns as good as a confession

where's the key she killed him she tried

to kill me

she's crazy I'll take this one a

headquarters

you better get Nicky to a locksmith what

are you laughing at

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

hey sir what are you doing there

rummaging around in my fire oh that I'm

having trouble with a new book and I

thought I might find some snappy

material down here have a great you

fellows Oh know how lucky you are you'll

put on a case the murders not a

character in that handwriting not the

Agusta stack far as I know there's only

one as one of the heaviest taxpayers of

this city I demand the services of the

police said the detective to my house as

soon as you receive this sure he doesn't

look like a detective she has her own

nerve as I don't want my household to

know I am consulting the police have the

man announce himself as a tree surgeon

since some of my trees are really

afflicted with Boris the letter of the

crank and whole we got down here that

don't look like a detective gallery not

me I'm too busy going over son you can't

tell you might you might get some

material for a new novel walking right

into it at night yeah and if she has any

walk that rates police attention why

come back and report to me

good morning mr. stack I have a tree

borer yeah you look more like the brush

man

don't manage what you get and I have no

more of your impression in salad you

think I was just laid instead of your

daughter go up to your room at once

heaven knows I'm old enough to have more

than $10 a month allowance leave the

room and you better answer the door

Martin I have an appointment with mrs.

stack huh good morning mother do you

know what time it is

I've been having a little trouble with

my watch lately don't be impudent you'll

be at the hospital at 9:00 every morning

or I'll remove you from your job where

were you last night at the theater

well what do you want I'm the man about

the borers what about the trees oh I

didn't just say so come in you're from

police headquarters don't look like a

policeman Wow sit down inspector clean

set me

unlike most women I generally come to

the point I want my hospital secretly

investigated things are happening there

that I neither like nor understand such

as I don't trust the medical director

dr. Jenny he disappears too often from

the hospital no in it I believe that's

why my sister died while he was giving

her a treatment he left her to answer an

emergency call he said but there was no

such emergency he's simply vanished

surely mr. stack you can hardly suspect

the doctor in charge of your hospital

then why was he opposed to an autopsy

why was she cremated in such indecent

haste but if she the body has been

already cremated I hardly see how I want

Jenny watched by the police in the

hospital secretly I see I'll report to

inspector Queen good morning mr. stack

well well I can understand it looks like

a clear case of spite against dr. Jenny

that Augustus stack is as unco Ziya

party as I ever met up with it's an

interesting household though everybody

hating the old girl you can positively

feel hatred seeping all over practically

in layers not bad

maybe I gives it the book yeah but you

know I can't detail a man just to go

there and investigate bad feelings still

I think it's the matter that should be

love Pinto

I looked look again be a sport go and

prop yourself up in the stack hospital

and be a patient not on your life dad

I'm a busy man I'll go on take it over

very strongly I already know how very

strongly miss a stack field

strong my formula goes to the Medical

Association as is ethical and proper

legally the discovery belongs to her

even a lawyer can be wrong on occasion

mr. Cruthers but not on this occasion

dr. Johnny I have their written

agreement between you and mrs. stack I'm

not interested in the vagueness of legal

terminology yes there in black and white

in plain language look at Clause 12

where it states that all formulas

developed in the hospital laboratory

belong to the hospital and the hospital

belongs to mrs. stack there's no other

possible legal interpretation the

formula is hers

investigate this hospital and now that

she's dead if you don't mind we'll

continue with the investigation

finished with the examination they'll be

Jenny and dr. Dunn have already examined

the body and issued its death

certificate miss Fox did you leave mr.

stacks room anytime after the operation

Wow

none of our nurses would dare do such a

thing you don't mind I'm questioning

miss Fox digs you miss Fox no I didn't I

was there all the time

yes Williams died of asphyxia just as we

discovered dr. Johnny but I found the

hyoid bone on throat broken which shows

that the teeth did not die back subtle

smothering but was strangled to death

miss Fox

how could anyone who sneaked into mr.

Spex room and killed her if you were

there all the time

I've been up all last night on a very

difficult case I dozed off for a while

oh I see what about the man at 511 well

what about it he was brought in in the

same ambulance with mrs. stack he said

he'd been hit by the same hit and run

driver I heard mrs. duck asked her son

to investigate the man and so I did I

found him an innocent victim of the same

crazy driver really smores you go up to

511 get a crater with that man well now

wait a minute I can't allow that I can't

have the patient's annoyed for the

police it will be very bad for the

tell me all about it

surely you didn't see that site and then

life cigarette oh that's his I wanted to

call the inspector but he locked me up

and ran out on me well naturally I

couldn't expect him to stay with a body

in there he's already suspecting the

murder whose murder mr. stacks of course

but had been for that he wouldn't have

brought me here to face miss Fox to find

out whether I was really earnest or not

I don't know if you're talking about

heaven that's perfectly clear if it was

foolish of me to say I was mrs. stacks

nurse but what else could I do without

giving you away I look Mickey I know

you've had a shock but try and pull

yourself together and calm down and

we'll get to the bottom of this now who

brought you here

I the man that took the shot at you of

course and you told him you were mrs.

tax nurse really Ellery was the other

one I told the first one the other one

the first one why don't you listen the

person who ran into me when he was

running around the hospital on a

stretcher with a broken leg I had to say

I was a nurse and I couldn't say I work

for mr. sax oh I I said I work for you

after mrs. stack was dead that was

brilliant

well if you drop the head of you anyway

won't go on well that got very excited

so he pulled a gun on me and told me to

push him in to supply me I felt another

gun in my ribs another gun and the other

one came in to supply room and told me

to whistle so I was on that made a

matter than ever well the matter with

you there's plain as day they're mixed

up with mints tack somehow they're

afraid to be blamed for so after we got

the first one down in the basement the

other one called the mob to get him out

of there and then took me over to

compromise box to find out what I was

really she or not tell me what are we

gonna do

I'm gonna call that before I go

completely nuts that's a fine thing to

say after I draft the whole case up for

you

storage room take it out to the back

came from her room what like please give

left into a coma I'm suffocated while

her face was turned to the pillow she

seemed to be coming along so nicely you

know some members he wasn't a young

woman not even so mr. Fox have you been

with the patient constantly I didn't

leave her for a minute her pulse was

good she was breathing naturally I'm

sure you were not at fault miss Fox

thank you doctor have the family been

notified oh this is the most regrettable

occurrence the shock of the accident

plus the operation was simply more than

she could stand I'm sorry to say doc I'm

sure everything possible was done for

course if you and mr. stack like an

autopsy oh no no no no the publicity

would be very distasteful and harmful to

the hospital I'll issue the death

certificate thank you doctor

so there's no reason for delaying the

funeral arrangements I'm sure that

mother would want to be cremated we'd be

going done what do you think of the

flowers uh you didn't have to go and buy

flowers for me I didn't buy them I found

them on the door now listen stack told

me that you wanted to get out of here

thing you don't mind I'm questioning

miss Fox dig here miss Fox no I didn't I

was there all the time

yes Williams I find the deceased died of

asphyxia just as we discovered dr.

Johnny but I found the hyoid bone on

throat broken which shows the deceased

did not die of accidental smothering but

was strangled to death

Spex room and kill her if you were there

all the time

difficult case I dozed off for a while

same ambulance with mrs. stack he said

found him an innocent victim of the same

crazy driver really spores you go up to

511 and get acquainted with that man

no picnic but she has a very good chance

I asked your question mr. Cruthers oh

yes it was on the matter of your anemia

concentrate discovery

mrs. stack feels very strongly I already

know how very strong name is a stack

field unfortunately my opposition is

equally strong my formula goes to the

Medical Association has its ethical and

proper legally the discovery belongs to

her even a lawyer can be wrong on

occasion mr. Cruthers but not on this

occasion dr. Johnny I have the written

agreement between you and mrs. stack

I'm not interested in the vagueness of

legal terminology yes there in black and

white in plain language look at Clause

12 where it states that all formulas

developed in the hospital laboratory

belong to the hospital and the hospital

belongs to mrs. stack there's no other

possible legal interpretation the

formula is hers excuse me

[Applause]

could you tell me now can you tell me

why this little elevators with doors

that don't know

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

hey sir what are you doing there

rummaging around in my fire oh that I'm

having trouble with a new book and I

thought I might find some snappy

material down here have a great you

fellows Oh know how lucky you are you'll

put on a case the murders not a

character in that handwriting not the

Agusta stack far as I know there's only

one as one of the heaviest taxpayers of

this city I demand the services of the

police said the detective to my house as

soon as you receive this sure he doesn't

look like a detective she has her own

nerve as I don't want my household to

know I am consulting the police have the

man announce himself as a tree surgeon

since some of my trees are really

afflicted with Boris the letter of the

crank and whole we got down here that

don't look like a detective gallery not

me I'm too busy going over son you can

tell you might you might get some

material for a new novel walking right

into it at night yeah and if she has any

walk that rates police attention why

come back and report to me good morning

mr. stack I have a tree borer yeah you

look more like the brush man

don't manage is what you get and I have

no more of your impression in salad you

think I was your slave instead of your

daughter go up to your room at once

heaven knows I'm old enough to have more

than $10 a month allowance leave the

room and you better answer the door

Marty I have an appointment with mrs.

stack huh good morning mother do you

know what time it is

I've been having a little trouble with

my watch lately don't be impudent

you'll be at the hospital at night every

morning or I'll remove you from your job

where were you last night at the theater

well what do you want I'm the man about

the borers what about the trees oh why

didn't you say so

come in please headquarters don't look

like a policeman Wow inspector claims

that me unlike most women I generally

come to the point I want my hospital

secretly investigated things are

happening there that I neither like nor

understand such as I don't trust the

medical director dr. Jenny he disappears

too often from a hospital no in it I

believe that's why my sister died while

he was giving her a treatment he left

her to answer an emergency call he said

but there was no such emergency he's

simply vanished surely mr. stack you can

hardly suspect the doctor in charge of

your hospital then why was he opposed to

an autopsy

why was she cremated in such indecent

haste but if she the body has been

already cremated I hardly see how I want

Jenny washed by the police in the

hospital secretly I see I'll report to

inspector Queen good morning was a stack

well well I can understand it looks like

a clear case of spite against dr. Jenny

that Augustus stack is as unco xia party

as I ever met up with it's an

interesting household though everybody

hating the old girl

you can positively feel hatred seeping

all over practically in layers not bad

maybe I use it the book yeah but you

know I can't detail a man just to go

there and investigate bad feelings still

I think it's a matter that should be

love pintu I loved

look again be a sport go and prop

yourself up in the stack hospital and be

a patient not on your life dad I'm a

busy man I'll go on take it over no

question
