The Quiet Magpie

Get this and get it straight Crime is a suckers road those who travel it wind up in the gut of the prison of the grave There's no other end But they never learn From the pen of Raymond Tranborough outstanding author of crime fiction comes his most famous character in The adventures of Philip Marlowe

Now with Gerald Moore starred as Philip Marlowe we bring you tonight's transcribed story the quiet magpie Will you restrain the defendant, Mr. Callaway, for making another such outburst? Proceed, Mr. Dettie.

Thank you, Your Honor. As I was saying, ladies and gentlemen, in further proof that Vincent Callaway murdered his father Homer Callaway in cold blood, the state has established that a violent hatred existed between them.

A hatred that crystallized through the years as Vincent Callaway grew from a pampered, only child into an indolent wastetroll of a man, content to lavish on himself the profits from the Callaway Oil Company. His father's business without one lifting so much as a finger in the firms behind.

That's not true. I work with the defense. The counsel for the defense will advise his client that the court will not count and it's another interruption of his thought. Thank you, Your Honor. I hate with ladies and gentlemen that reached explosive proportions when Vincent Callaway recently took as his bride an ex-showgirl.

A woman with a long and tarnished history of flagrant fortune hunting. A woman whom he flotted in the face of his father's expressed wishes and deep desires to the contrary. Further, the state has proved that just two days prior to his murder, Homer Tallaway had decided definitely to change his will.
