No Grave Can Hold Me

The Mutual Broadcasting System presents The Mysterious Traveler. Written, produced and directed by Robert A. Arthur and David Coker. And featuring tonight, who of radio's most distinguished personalities, Santa Sautéga and Richard Cuken, in No Grave Can Hold Me.

This is the Mysterious Traveler. Thank you for joining me on another journey around the strange and the terrifying. I hope you will enjoy the trip and it will thrill you a little and chill you a little as we travel tonight into the world of shadows for which no man may return and we learn the story of one who does return.

It's a story I call, no grave and all of me. My story starts in a court of law where a man is on trial for his life. The courtroom is tense, but the jury is out deciding the prisoners' fate.

But the prisoner himself, a tall man with glossy black hair and piercing eyes, sits calmly with his lawyer, his daughter Nora, and his son-in-law Harry Wilson, waiting for the fateful verdict. Oh dear, I wish I knew.

Father, I think the jury is coming in now. They say it's a bad sign the majority is out for such a short while. You need not to worry. I shall be free. I certainly hope so, Randolph.

But, all you know, you did admit you killed Clemens. Because he insulted me. He called me a mountain bank, a charlatan, a trickster. He called the great Randolph a paker. So he died. Where they come? Oh, father, I'm frightened.

I'm not taking any places in the jury box now. What, costly grim? I repeat. I repeat, have no fear for me. Forman of the jury. Has the jury reached a verdict? It has your honor.
