Strange Wills. Starring the distinguished Hollywood actor Warren William and featuring Lorraine Tuttle and Leo Cleary with Howard Culver and an all-star Hollywood guest. Original music by Del Castillo. Death Men's Wills are often strange. We cannot attempt to understand them or try to find the answers.

We can but tell the story. This is Warren William bringing you the story of Meisser's Gold. But first... Now back to Warren William as John Francis O'Connell in

Meisser's Gold. Of all the strange, weird characters, I've had the pleasure to represent in Probate Matters none I think ever can measure up to the caliper of old Nick, gold miner extraordinaire. I saw him for the first time on a cold March morning when he came up to my office for legal advice.

He won another hat nor overcoat, and his toes, blue with cold, was sticking out of his broken shoes. He was a coward. Mr. O'Connor, I'm an old man, sick man. I want to know what happens to your money when you kick the bucket.

Well, Nick, under the law, it goes to your next of kin. If you have a wife and children, then... I ain't got no wife and kids. Well, then to your blood relatives. That is, of course, if you die without making a will.

And if I make a will? Then, to whom, so ever, your name has been a fishery, is Nick. I only got one sister and two brothers. Ha-ha, well, you've answered your own question. But I don't want them to get my money.

I hate them. Well, how about some charity? No, no, no. I ain't going to give my money to no strangers, neither. Well, Nick, one thing is certain. If you have any money, you can't very well take it with you, can you?
