Strange Wills. Starring the distinguished Hollywood actor Warren William, and featuring Marvin Miller and Lorraine Tuttle with Howard Culfer and an all-star Hollywood cast. Original music by Del Castillo. Dead 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, East of Hudson's Bay. But first, now back to Warren William, as John Francis O'Connell in East of Hudson's Bay.
If I spent my winters in sunny California or balmy Florida, well, it's not without just cars I can assure you. Once and only once I had the very dubious pleasure of visiting a client, East of Hudson's Bay. Oh, it wasn't a pleasure trip, believe me. Only the diarist of circumstances made me go.
It all started in the crispy month of October. It was one of those rare fall days. Indian summer, in fact. When the lovely young and headstrong Angela Nelson came into my office to see me.
Just imagine John. Just imagine me falling air to a 10,000-acre ranch. It's the most thrilling thing that ever happened to me. Well, Angela, inheriting a ranch that size is about all that's left for you to get. Your grandfather gave you one fortune, then your father made you sole heir of his estate, and now your uncle comes through with a ranch. But there's
a catch, Angela. There's a catch. A catch? Oh, you're fooling, John. Here it is, Donum, Black and White. Now, wait a minute. I'll read it to you. To Angela Nelson, my beloved niece. I devised in McQueen a parcel of land consisting of approximately 10,000 acres. The interesting Part is still to come, Angela. Remember I wrote the will.
