it was taken at a bad angle as far as the number Plate's concerned the only thing that we can be certain of is the make of the car any idea who the girl is no sir I wish I did I see what you mean well this friend help us to find out who Kendall Brown was well so we've checked the records but no such person seems to exist thank you that's all we need it to make this case perfectly simple all right

that photograph you showed me she's been here quite a lot but that's almost a year ago do you know anything about her I'm afraid I don't and you don't know her name no I'm sorry I don't think Mr Brown

look around very good I suppose it's all right well I didn't think there's much we can do here this Kendall Brown seems to be too Anonymous to be natural what do you think of this sir h Helen Castle

friends weren't you I knew him but uh quite well quite well did you often visit him yesterday was the first time in a long while who took this F guard he did where did you find this it was found on the dead man oh I didn't think he still carried it around with him funnily enough it's the only picture I've ever liked of myself gave me the negative it in love yes it is very good are you sure that you haven't had anything to do with kendle brown recently no we met occasionally to have a drink but that was just for Old Time sake but you had some important business to discuss with him yesterday didn't you you called on him three times three times the land lady says you called twice tce before we arrived the third time you came you found we were there you left rather fast I felt lonely I wanted to see someone so I went to him is that all yes that is all Miss French if you think very hard and try to help us perhaps we in turn could help you in what way I don't know we have been known to be helpful to some people this is a murder case Mr fr all right inspector I'll I'll try and help you but just at this moment I am in a hurry I've got people coming and I have a headache if only you could have come earlier we tried earlier you were out all day were you with Franklin prior how do you know have I been followed no Miss French app it's a curious coincidence Mr pry is at the airport at the time of the shooting he gave us your address to contact him it was coincidence wasn't it yes he's a friend of mine a visitor and I would appreciate it very much if he were not involved in any of this I understand but uh just in case we do want to contact him is this still his address no he has a hotel now the Sussex but you won't no we won't I tell you what Miss French you think over everything you can tonight and then you can call us tomorrow morning perhaps you'll have thought of something by then will that be all right yes inspector and call you tomorrow good may we have the thank you m Rich good day thank you did you to the young one then wasn't he cozy this is something wrong man did I say something oh no I'm just being silly people will be here in a minute come we must hurry we've got a lot to do [Music] how you doing Mr PR sorry to keep you waiting that's all right come here you take a seat you remember Cameron don't you yes hello good afternoon sir well now we'll be brief Mr pror we want to talk to you about Pauline French we hope you'll cooperate well I'll try let's start from yesterday morning at the airport I'd like to go into this matter of a somewhat unusual coincidence I presume that the person you expected to meet you there was Miss French was that presumption correct yes and to the best of your knowledge she failed to arrive she didn't I take it you know that Miss French was on intimate terms with Kendall Brown and that that connection remained unbroken until yesterday oh it's possible that Miss French was at the airport you know and you didn't see her you realize that no I didn't realize it Ken Brown was shot by an expert at a considerable distance you know that Miss French is very good with the rifle don't you yes we have to think of everything for instance we have to ask ourselves whether it was a simple coincidence that you stopped Kendall Brown to get a light VI a cigarette just by chance or whether that was a ruse to keep him still for a few moments so that he'd be a better Target that's absurd it probably is that's just the sort of thing one thinks about on this kind of job isn't it sir do you know any of Miss French's friends or acquaintances I haven't seen Miss French for 6 years until yesterday I'm afraid I won't be able to help you gentleman very much the cartridge case of the bullet that killed Kendall Brown was found in the grounds of the airport I get to tell you something rather curious Mr prior near that cartridge case was a number of footprints which showed an uneven distribution of weight and associated with them was a series of indentations in the ground which could have been caused by a walking stick or a crutch that seems to ring a bell Mr PR uh no I uh I I was just curious what do you make of it during your past two days with Miss French did you see or did you hear her mention any person of her acquaintance who was crippled or who might have used some such walking Aid uh as a matter of [Music] fact hello now we had cover in Kendall Brown's house has picked up a taxi driver called Henry Stone what was he doing waiting for the dead man you better bring him up I'll be right down huh oh she is yeah I'm right along take that into forensic on your way back see Wheels never stop well Mr pry you were saying well as I was saying um as a matter of fact uh Miss French is giving a party later on this afternoon so that I might meet some of her friends if uh someone shows up using a crutch I'll let you know good do you know anything about Kendall Brown who he was no he's a man with a very bad record I don't like to say this but doesn't speak too well for Miss French that she had any connection with him whatsoever his police history is a very nasty one there are charges against him for smuggling charges for bigamy in fact all sorts of trouble with women you're a visitor to this country Mr prior we want you to enjoy your stay if you could be persuaded not to have too much to do with Miss French until this matter is cleared up I think you might avoid a lot of difficulty all right thank you excuse me one Mr Stone yes sir I understand you were outside number 39 South Hill Street it's a regular caller mine sir you could have knock me down when the copper told me he was a goner why were you so surprised well it was fit enough a couple of weeks ago understand it was all in the papers too you drove him a couple of weeks ago I drove him nearly every week sir see like I take him down to the river and then bring him back again he's a shipping man or something does a lot of his business down at the spread eagle where it's a little Pub down on the river sir do you happen to keep a record of these trips oh yes I've uh I've got them here I think sir yes this is it yes there well I see you've got today's date here Mr St uh yes that's right sir I was to take him today to the spread eagle I see would you like to make up your Affair To The spad Eagle well I wouldn't mind you there good you can take us down there and Sh us around yeah wait few thank well Mr prior I think that's all for you we've checked your V th we know you're all right but we'd like you to stay that way London's a big and interesting City why not look at it on your for you're through with me then huh yes thank you very much thank you Franklin prior leaving the building better put a man on where's Cameron well tell him to get rid of it we've got a job to [Music] do I come on stupid thanks so much for the invitation I said did you hear about baby here she's got the partk oh

out of here where you going oh darling I I tried to telephone you this afternoon to explain frk I must ask you please don't try to stop me now go ahead doesn't make much difference for the right Stu you're not anyway the police will do that what for because they think you're involved with the murder of Kimo Brown that's fantastic is it the police are at the Spread Eagle right now that man that you were talking with her today the one who walks with a crutch they've got linked with the was shooting how do you know this I had a special invitation to Scotland Yard they advised me to stay away from you if I wanted to keep out of [Music] trouble Frank please I've waited too long and come too far you got to tell me what this is all about [Music] I what do you want to know I want to know what you're hiding from me what's separating us who is this kendle Brown why was he killed what have you got to do with it and this this lipping man who is he God yes you can you can don't you understand I don't care what you've done in the past the important thing is us now Pauline I'm not going to let you shut yourself off for me any longer all [Music] right when when you left I was desperately alone I wanted to forget nothing was too wild or too crazy to try including Kendall Brown he was attractive and mysterious and and I fell for him it's as simple as that is that [Music] it no there was more we did dangerous and I thought exciting things together we used my launch to pick up contraband from ships in the channel I did the navigating and I didn't ask questions all seemed to be part of the thrill that I needed but I didn't know how many other things apart from our petty smuggling he was involved in or how rotten he was until later when I found out I I left him that was a year ago go on well he didn't want it that way foolishly I'd written letters that talked of everything we done together he used those letters to get money from me and two weeks ago he said I could have them all back for £2,000 [Music] that was where I was going to collect them when I met the police well then your problem's over he's dead yes but he has a wife Helen castler singer now she has the letters and she wants the money she was the one who sent the man to the pub to find her this morning my maid told her we'd gone to the river the lipping man yes I don't know what all the fuss about him is he's only the stage doorkeeper at the theater where she works that's where I've got to go now buy back my past all sounds very sord and ugly doesn't it that's the way is Frank blackmailing can go on and on you know why don't you go to the police wouldn't it be better that way no Frank those letters were published don't you see what it would mean horrible publicity humiliation perhaps even [Music] jail I could never work again I couldn't face anyone even you especially you that's where I must go through with this there's no other way no isn't there any way out of this building besides the front entrance yes I'm going down through the kitchen to use the fire escape I'm going with you no Frank you're not getting involved in this Frank please come [Music] on [Music] what are we going to [Music]
