Petrick Wine brings you.

Basil rath Bone and the new Adventures.

Of Sherlock Home.

The Petrie family, the family that took time to bring you good wine, invites you to listen to doctor Watson tell us another exciting adventure he shared with his good friend, that master Detective Sherlock Home.

And as for me, well, I'd like to ask you if.

You know that one of the favorite wines of American women is Petrie California Muscatel.

In fact, the whole family likes Petrie Muscatel.

And you'll certainly know why, if you'll just pour yourself a glass, why that Petrie Muscatel is wonderful, Just to look at It's the color of sheer gold, and raise that Petrie Muscatel to your lips.

Boy, what a wine.

Look.

Did you ever walk through a vineyard early in the morning, you know, when the dew is.

Still clinging to the grapes, And did you taste one of those luscious, plump mustard grapes.

Then you'll know what to expect the first time you taste Petrie Muscatel.

Petrie Muscatel brings you that same wonderful muscat flavor right from the heart of the grape.

Try serving petrie muscatel after dinner by itself or with fruit or nuts.

It's the perfect after dinner wine.

And serve it.

Probably because five letters P E.

T R.

I spelled the proudest name in the history of American wine.

And now I'm sure our good friend doctor Watson is ready for us.

Let's go in and join.

Come in, Oh there, you almost bought her good evening?

Doctor?

Are you all ready with the nice new Sherlock Holmes adventure?

I'm ready if you on the boy, how would you like to hear a story that took patient Italy?

In Italy?

Say you and the great Cheerlock home certainly did get around?

What took you there?

We've gone to Rome to investigate the sudden death of Cardinal Tosca, an inquiry which I may tell you, mister Bartell, was carried out by Holmes at the express desire of his holiness, the Pope.

And say, doctor, that sounds like, oh no, no, mister Bartell, that's the story that I am afraid I can never tell you.

However, tonight's adventure took place a few days after Holmes had brought his case to a satisfactory though somewhat terrifying conclusion.

I suggested to the great Man that a short holiday would be good for us before returning to England.

And so we spent some happy days browsing among the architectural traces of old Rome, the Colosseum, the baths of Caracalla, the Forum, the wonderful ruins on the Palatine Hill.

I couldn't drag homes away from mister Bartell, and at night time he was able to indounce to his heart's content his great love of music.

Finally, it was two nights before we were to sail for England.

I remember we went to the opera house to hear the famous Italian soprano Gina Valcaesi singing bared his immortal l traviata.

I can hear that exquisite voice now, mister Bartel, as hoes and I seated in the box, listened Spale down to the great bell Casey singing her last he.

Que a hoy S Watson, What a magnificent boy.

Yes it is, Holmes.

So pretty though that most Offera stars who see a nightingale seemed to have the figures of unusually well fed out of pigeons.

Poor woman.

She must wave least twenty stone.

Nevertheless, you mustn't prefer to her as poor, my dear jap.

Despite her some out unfortunate proportions, Signora tuned about case remains one of the greatest and wealthiest of contemporous funnels.

Listening to her pa and not a listen sing a OnCore.

We might as well go back to addressing them now the operas o.

Well, we going back to herdress.

During the last division, I received a note from her requesting my attendance.

What did the notes say?

Well, it seems that the lady is not too popular with certain members of the opera company.

Well, I've no wish to become entangled in any opera clashed temperaments, I confess I find myself not a little interested in meeting the lady she's been seeing a blancore.

Are you really going back to her dressing?

A summons from you know is no more to be disobeyed than our royal commands.

I must ask her, you, gentlemen, not to stand outside bla bark a dressing room.

We permit on our strangers, particularly for us.

The Senora has requested our presence.

May I ask who you are.

Permit me to introduce to myself, gentlemen, I am Armando Belini, Inspector of Police.

My name is Homes.

Sheilla comes and this is my friend, doctor Watson.

Sure lack of Homes ah, but this is a great honor.

Allow me to apologize here in the opera, eurse.

We have to be so careful.

You understand that of be intrigued.

There are so many but Senor Homes and his friend.

I am so happy to meet you both at headquarters.

I hear wonderful reports of your work.

And the Cardinal Toskap I prefer not to mention that unfortunate matter.

Inspector accept on the conditions of extreme privacy are quite so.

And behind the scenes that the opera is not the most secluded place.

Please to forgive me.

You are waiting still level cases.

Yes, she is still on the stage, as she has requested your presence.

You say in your home, Yes, I trust the meeting is to be a social and not a profession.

No one where staying for England in a couple of days, and.

You come to hear the great virquesa singer before you.

Left, must understand a magnificent voice.

Inspector yes, a doctor and still well, I am a devout operl ova myself.

Yet I cannot help but feel it's a futilizer with those who can add a youth and bety into a great volar.

That's true, true sign.

But where can you find such a combination?

I have found it here in the opera.

There is a girl.

She is my protege.

Some day I hope she will be my wife.

At the moment she is only understudying La Balcsi.

If she should ever get the opportunity of seeing her her place, then a new star will be born.

Really, what's her name?

Lisa Bordoni.

She has but recently come to Ron from Milano, where she was studied with the great Alphaer.

Confidentially, I think that laval Casey is so jealous of all that here is Lisa now, and that is her brother with her, that Lisa Karma pleaser to join us, by goge, What a beautiful girl?

What is did Armando permit me to present the famous English detecative senior shell like a Holmes and his friend doctor Watts.

You do you do, young lady?

Glad to meet you both.

This is my brother worry, I'm.

Going to do I certainly feel that I know a lot about you, two gentlemen.

No, I can't tell you how many times I've read your stories, Doctor Watson in Dieta.

I'm very flattered, Lisa Karma, and we were just a saying that an youth and the beauty combined with the voice lies our future harp in the offera your They will come, Lisa Mirr, they will come soon.

I hope you're right, Armando, But as long as I understand a Gina Valcati, I don't see when I'll get my chance if she's disgustingly healthy.

If you're about my saying so, young lady, though your name is BORDONI you and your brother don't sound to the East.

Italian, but we're not, mister Holmes, We're American.

But to succeed in Italian opera, my sister has found that the Italian name is essential, so the Bordon family became the Borders.

In any case, my real name is Lizzie Bordon.

I'm sure you, mister Holmes, is a famous detective.

She will see that I had to change my name.

I can will understand who was Lizzie boy.

Well, my never are one of the greatest and most successful of murderesses, who will enacts with incredible dexterity.

I've often regretted that I was in Tibet instead of America at the time of that particular case in your arms.

I do not understand you Angelo's accents to me, and murderous is a murderous Now when you speak of a greatness in women, I feel But here comes jin Abal Casey.

Now I will introduce.

You many times, but I tell you a lot.

No, I want to stand outside by Trasy Rome.

Send him away, Love Casey is time.

But do you wish to see Senior shell Uck Holmes said the famous detective.

Here's a come here in answer to your request.

Please uponmit me to present him.

And also is a friend, Doctor Watts?

Are you losing?

I'm Readianna to meet you, senor Dr Casey.

And now perhaps if we may come into your dressing room and can sir privately?

What would love?

But did you have to say to a detective, I mean you're not the police.

That's zero, okay?

What you get that she slammed the door in my face?

Water waiter, bring me some more coffee.

Please say you're very pleasant dining here on the hotel.

Tell us someone's confess.

Amazingly considering yesterday snow, yes it is later.

I suggest we pay another visit to the opera, and yeah about Cases, saying you'll done Rigoletto.

Oh, my soul, Homes, it seems to me that you're astonishingly casual after the way that woman insulted you last night, spamming the door in your faces.

If you were a tradesman, shocking.

What would you have me do, my dear chap, boss my way into a into a room, demand an apology, or I have my friend challenge her to what duell in order to offend my honor.

Oh, don't try to be funny, Homes.

You know perfectly well what I mean.

The lady asks you to come and see her, and when you do, she pretends she's never heard of you.

And here it is nearly twenty four hours later, and you've done absolutely nothing about her.

Dearl Watson nearly quite upset over the affair, aren't you well?

If it will make you any happier, let me tell you what I have done something about it.

I hear it what This morning I was able.

To obtain a specimen of bradal Case's handwriting from an autograph picture in the possession of Inspector Bilinae.

I compared the writing with that on the note and I that I received from the box last night.

It was that it was the same, proving that the message I received was authentical.

In that case, why did she snub you like that?

Well, something was to find her.

I suppose something or someone who was standing at the dressing room door with us.

Well, who was the inspect of Blini, Lisa Bordoni and her brother.

Therefore, we may assume that La Valkeese had notes to recognize me their presence.

But if you think they're those, why haven't you been in touch with her today?

She may be in some dreadful way.

If she is, she can find me easily enough.

I meanwhile, I'm perfectly happy to be alone.

The last few weeks have been sufficiently strenuous.

Willout becoming involved in some fresh case?

Im I so home?

You must be tired.

I've never known you to be so indifferent to a case.

Great Scott is Watson look walking to waters Signora vel CAZy herself and judging.

From the expression, she seems to be in some distressed could mean Senola, you wrong I must speaks I Joe, this is my colleague, doctor Watson.

How do you do First, I'm not apologize for my behavior last to night.

She would have been dangerous if.

That old Katie had acknowledged that she had to communicate with you.

That's just what my friend assumed.

A lease speak quite pretty now, Senola, no one can overhear us seen.

I am a being persecute.

My life is in a danger.

You want have saved me be dreading see seas and now today tried to do as a stroke my sist.

My beloved Bella, their death from a murderous attack, an attack that was a meant for me.

Good Lord, what happened, madam?

If you will please to keep it quiet and level that Jesus speak, will I learn that happen?

Well?

Sorry, madam the money.

This is the morning, nor is myself.

Take my dog for a walk, but this is the morning.

I feel the trace of a cold.

I asked my sister to take the dog for a walk.

Please don't understand that my seater is a very much like me, a peeress.

I understand, Senora.

Please continue.

She woke alone in the park from nowhere her husband come gallop and the ride her door sink.

How much I learned from the traces in the snow when I pray and goes to find her.

Was she able to tell you who the horseman was?

No, she cannot speaks to you.

They say at the hospital that her skull is a fractured, that she may not leave it in your arms.

That attack, it was a.

Meant for me.

You must have protected me.

I shall do everything in my No, No, what's.

Wrong, madam?

Somewhere to the cat I know, I cannot.

I'll make it go away.

Please, I gotta stand some without even a thing.

No, no, I.

It must be your imagination.

I am sorry to make such a scene, but I cannot appear to be nearing cap I cannot tell you what it.

Does to me.

May sound no, no, not a sula.

Such a condition is quite common.

In fact, I believe medical science has given it a name.

It's known as ila.

Whatever is called make me ill.

I must go to my room.

I cannot stand much more, My poor.

I imagine your sister death.

Do Simula, you will not sing tonight?

See your arms.

I love her very much, but even as sister, he is only a sister.

My heart is my life in an hour, singer, I think you'll either wriggle let though, you will attend the performance, and afterwards you.

Will tell aloud that Katy as she may trap.

This devil who'll stick to destroyer.

Oh Holmes, it's after I'm thirty.

We've missed quite a lot of the opera.

Hardly worth going to our box now, just been time to hear about kids hastening the incomparable caronomy Alta.

Let's set in quite as we can.

Seems to me we should have been in our box from the beginning of the performance.

She asked you to keep an eye on it and as all chance.

But it occurred to me that an attack on her during the performance was unlikely, and that our time might be more proper to pretent thinking inquiries of the writing academy.

She drew a blank with there no trace of that mysterious rider.

No, but at least be tried.

Here we are.

Let's turned at the back of the fear.

For few minutes.

It's Scott that isn't our cases singing.

It's I'm just study.

But he is proto shape the American girl.

He said, well, don't it what a beautiful life?

Fun but with a beautiful, so wonderful range.

Okare we We have no time to listen to her now and this go to that out cases dressing him at once.

We know she left the tonight with the intention of singing.

I'm very much afraid there's devil's work of what wats you?

Why doesn't she answer?

Listen right, that's inside her dressing room.

Come on, watch them look, let just hold it for it.

Come on, help me, Come on, that's more.

Come on now'n't there.

Freaks cut?

She's unconscious, Watson, See what you can do for her.

She must have think it's a spice.

Yes, some fiend, knowing her deadly fear of cats as lucked her in here with half a dozen of them.

True, Poe off me shoe.

Her eyes are opening, homes, she's coming too, seor DARKIZI.

Her lips are moving, she's trying to speak.

Signor darkies?

Tell me who did this to you?

Great heavens?

Her voice gone.

I've known many vicious crimes my lifetime, Watson, But to murder a voice, a voice that was one of the treasures of the world, is as by a killing as I've ever encountered.

Doctor Watson will tell you the rest of his story in just a few seconds.

And right now would be a wonderful time to try a glass of Patrie California Port.

In the evening after dinner, Well, any time you're taking things easy is the perfect time for Petri Port.

Petri Port is a rich red wine, the kind of wine you like to sift slowly so you won't miss a drop of its truly fine flavor.

I'm not kidding when I say you owe it to yourself and your family to try Petri Port.

In fact, you should try petri Port and Petrie Muscatel.

So don't buy one by two, buy both Port and Muscatel.

Just be sure you get Petrie, because Petrie wine is always good wine.

Doctor Watson saw the great.

Opera singer lost her voice when someone locked in a room full of cats.

Huh, what did you and Sherlock Holmes do?

We took senior Valcazy back to her hotel at once, and so that she was properly taken care of.

How did the understudy Lisa Bordoni make out?

Doctor?

The tragedy of the Dover tookk Valcazy gave her her great chance.

She received a tremendous ovationion of the close of the performance, and it seemed certain that another star had been borne.

But let me tell you the story just as if happened, mister Bartel.

A little later that night, Holmes and I.

Were once again standing on the balcony of our.

Hotel, watching a crowd of people.

That are assembled in the courts.

Do you see that crowd, Watson, Yes, I suppose they've come here to acclaim the news stuff.

Oh no, my dear fellow, that crowd isn't planning a celebration.

Look at them and listen to their angry murmuring her faith.

There's going to be trouble.

I don't like to look at it.

Hello, here comes Lisa Border and his brother.

Worry.

What rum'sir?

Mister Holmes, Mister Holses, you've got to do something.

What's happened?

Well, somehow the story about the cats in Lord Old Casey's dressing room is spread.

The crowd outside are saying that my sister Lisa planned the whole thing so that she could sink all Casey's part in the opportunity of her sister.

Now in a room at the hotel here, I managed to get her away from the crowd and I locked her in.

The mob I'm fighting.

Ah yeah, comes the official representative, the blond daughter and inspected Billina Walla.

Where is Lisa?

I was just telling mister Holmes that I'd locked her in a room, and that crowd's in a dangerous mood.

You ain't what precautions you're taking.

I ever thrown a card on a polish around the hotel.

The mob is getting out of my hand on the moon.

I must be protected.

As a matter of fact, the situation is even worse than the crowd knows.

I have just been told that labat Case's twin sister, Bella died in the hospital to night, that I had some murder charge.

If the crowd knew about that, I tremble to think what might happen?

Did you say that laid Casey's sister there was a twin, Inspector says, in your arms, she was a hor exact double in everything but voice.

Indeed, how very illuminating.

If you don't mind I striking a few words in private with my friend, Doctor Watson excuses prommandes, what do you make of at homes?

Why do you will chat?

Well?

The American girl seemed really charming and all that, but she might have done it.

It had to be either her, her brother, or the inspector himself.

They all had a motive for wanting La Belle Casey to lose her voice.

But I would say, I can't understand the motive behind the murder of her twin sister.

I think I can give you the answer to that question in aoy two minutes.

But meanwhile the mob gets uglier and uglier.

The only way to avert violence, Watson, is to give them proof and there certainty of conviction and just go back to BERLINI and the American and I want to keep an eye on them.

Meanwhile, I want you to slip out and get me a cat.

Cat.

You will find out soon enough.

What kind of a cat?

Oh?

Any kind?

But hurry, come on, kitty, Come on, kitty.

There's a good kitty.

Yeah here, Yeah, what you're doing a hotel kage?

Senor?

Oh?

You want to play with my cat?

Or?

Is he you're a cat?

Johnny Little?

I'd like to borrow him for a little while.

Why you want to borrow my cat?

Oh?

I thought i'd take him up to my hotel room and have a little game with him.

I've got some old socks he can play with.

Deal.

The English had a crazy race.

My cat does not like to play with the old socks.

Look here, he has fifty lire for you.

Oh no, no, no, I tell you my cat does not like to play with old socks.

My cat will stay here and you can keep in your mind.

I'll give you a hundred lyric dog that you.

May stuff my cat full of old socks.

No, no, give me back.

Makes this with you, you'll get it back the stuffing stuff in the crazy englishman, he's stealing my cart.

Well, I got a cat for your homes, but I wish you'd tell me what we're doing outside Valkes's door with it.

I'm going to try an experiment.

You open the backroom door softly, so slip the cat in so and close the door.

Homes Man, what.

The places you think you're doing?

You'll drive on.

Man, I did not listen and watch through the keyhole.

If you can Holmes come back, Yes, I thought it might.

I can see her through the keyhole.

She's picking the cat up by the scruff of its neck.

She's walking toward the.

Balconyes, and towards the crouch down below.

An excellent opportunity for a public confession.

Come on, come on, what do you want?

I charge you with the murder of your sister, the great singer about Kissy if there was a magnificence in your homes, a magnifers the way you force her to confess on the balcony and the foreside of the muth and so.

You saved Lisa.

I can't thank you enough, mister Holmes.

No can I though I still don't see how you guessed she up so much like her sister, the chief FOOLI in me her understands.

Yes, it was an extremely cunning plot, mister Dunney.

Maril Valcase sent me that note last night.

When I met her at the dressing room door, she denied having sent for me.

Because the three of you were there, I suppose that she suspected one of us.

Oh yes, obviously and no doubt.

She told her twin sister Bella and about having sent me the message, and also announced her intention of coming to see me.

Tell Us saw her opportunity murdered.

La Valkase assumed her identity and to give added realism to her role, followed through with her sister's plan by coming to see me today, But I.

Still don't understand this business, mister Holmes.

Why did the twin sister lock herself in her dress room and fill it with cats?

What did it accomplish?

It gave me the chance to say.

That's true, which is why Watson felt certain the criminal must be you, your brother, or signor Belline.

But you see, the episode of the cats accoplished on another thing.

It made it plausible that the great Bealcase should never sing again.

To whose advantage would there be foster across a person or a twin sister who could not sing, and who must surely end her sister's great Now exactly, my dear fellow.

As soon as I knew they were twin sisters and everything but vice, it became more than a possibility.

It became probability.

But it had to be tested.

That's why I sent for the cat, Watson.

When the sister, thinking herself unobserved, exhibited no terror for cats, well, it became a certainty on my soul.

Home.

This is as fantastic as plot as ever.

We've met a diabolical plan, Watson, and I'm only thankful Miss Boudonney that we were able to expose it.

Before the crowd reached you tonight.

I don't know what I can ever do to repay you, mister Holmes.

Oh that would be hard, my dear.

A box of clock and garden for your London debut would be well an ample repayment.

And from what I hear of your reception in Rigoletto tonight, I shan't have to wait very long for that reward, eh.

En, excuse to be pleased.

All over the hotel I look up for my cat, I say to myself, pease, he's stealing my cat.

He's pector Bellina you were next time he tried a pine and then he run away from the cat and filling for a holding this suck o.

Ship doctor, I'd jill like to have a picture of you running away with that fellow's cat under.

You.

A cat stealer, you know, a bit funny, mister, Believe me.

It was most embarrassing.

I know, but it was all for a good cause, and I think you were splendid about the whole thing.

Uh.

Incidentally, how'd you happen to look for a cat in a hotel kitchen?

All there's usually one round the back door of a kitchen, haven't you ever wandered a well, the backstage in the hotel fascinating, of course I have, But I've never been in a hotel kitchen.

Then where were you and the wine selling?

I should have known.

Yes, I like to look at bottles of Petrie wine because when I see a Patrie wine, I know I'm looking at a good wine.

And Petree wine is good because of the Petrie family.

The Petrie family first started making fine wine before the beginning of this century, generations ago.

Since then, wine making has been their heritage, handed on down from father to son.

So you can take it for granted that the Petrie family really knows how to turn luscious, sun ripened grapes into clear, fragrant, delicious wine.

And you can take it for granted too, that the name Petrie on a bottle of wine is more than a trademark.

It's the personal assurance of the Petrie family that every drop of wine in that bottle is good wine.

You just can't go wrong with Petrie wine because Petrie took time to bring you good wine.

Well, doctor Watson, what story are you planning to tell us next week?

Next week, mister Bartil, I'm going to tell you a strange adventure that Holmes and I had many many years ago.

It concerns a young girl, the mutilation of her doll, and the tragedy that overtook a certain wise woman from the mountains.

Tonight.

Sherlock Holmes adventure was written by Dennis Green and Anthony Boucher, and was suggested by an incident in this Arthur Conan Doyle story.

The Adventure of Black Peter Music is by Dean Postler.

Mister Rathbone appears through the courtesy Petro Baldwin Mayor, and tonight Doctor Watson was played by mister Eric Snood, who substituted for mister Nigel Bruce.

Mister Bruce is scheduled to return to the program next week.
