Transcript

All aboard for the transcribed premier production, the crews of the Paul Parrot, and time to take up where we left off in the exciting story of whaling days, when the good ship Paul Parrot on its return voyage from a treasure hunt is washed ashore on an unknown island of the South Atlantic during a terrific hurricane.

On one side of the island is Captain Dalton's party, which includes Sue Grange, her brother Ezra Grange, owner of the Paul Parrot, Johnny Robbins, its brave cabin boy, good old Dickon, and Paul Parrot himself.

While on the other side of the island we find the privateer Captain Karch, his first mate Briney and the few of their crew. Captain Karch has sworn revenge on Captain Dalton in an effort to secure the diamonds that our good friends of the Paul Parrot found on Galtow Island, but now something has happened to Captain

Dalton. After being shot at by savages, Captain Dalton disappeared into thin air, and when last seen our good friends from the Paul Parrot in their search for Captain Dalton have been surrounded by these same savages.

the shouts of the savages Mr. Grange. Speak. Savages. There must be hundreds of them. Inress. You can see them in every tree all the time. Not that rifle. Don't fire at the man. Or you'll have the whole bunch down on us.

But I wonder why they're all running away. That's the part I don't like. They're up to some trickery. No, Kedra. Not for hangers. What is it, Sue? Good animal. It's blinking off in the same direction the savages took. It's a black leopard.

You're right, Johnny. And that's the strange part of it. What's so strange, ever? Black leopard in these parts. We certainly must be somewhere in the South Atlantic to be so close to the Brazilian Indians.
