What happens
Captain Friday, a reckless detective who heads his own agency, investigates strange events in the City of the Dead, an abandoned cemetery. In this episode, he and his companion Dr. Tuner find bodies in a burning cabin, and then encounter a skeleton that carries a message about Theodore Beverly. Phyllis Carroll, who has been stabbed in the back, is caught up in the mystery, and her fiance Jimmy Parker is suspected of the attack. The story is from the Adventures by Morse series, created and written by Carlton E. Morse, and first aired on January 5, 1944.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
