Transcript

Mutual Broadcasting System presents The Mysterious Traveler, written produced and directed by Robert A. Arthur and David Gogund, and starring tonight to a radio's foremost personalities, Adelaide Klein and Maiton Adams, in an original radio drama titled The Visiting Caught.

This is the mysterious traveler, inviting you to join me on another journey into the realm of the strange and the terrifying. I hope you will enjoy the trip, that it will thrill you a little and chill you a little.

So settle back, get a good trip on your nerves and be comfortable if you can. As we meet the visiting cop, story begins late one night in the modest suburban home of Albert Jordan.

Oh, oh, leave me alone, but I want to hear any more, leave me alone, get me off. Many, many get to marry her. And she had to be tricked to marriage by you. Oh, leave me alone, leave me alone!

Yes, Louise, yeah. Now, don't forget to ship my trunk. Now, the Expressman will be here to pick it up this morning, Mother. Thank you, darling. It's almost nine o'clock, Mother. You'll miss your train. I have never missed a train in my life.
