And now, Roma Wines, R-O-M-A, made in California for enjoyment throughout the world. Roma Wines presents... Suspense! Night Roma Wines bring you Miss Rita Hayworth, a star of Three Times Murder. A suspense play produced, edited and directed for Roma Wines by William Sphere.

Suspense, Radio's Outstanding Theater of Thrills is presented for Your Enjoyment by Roma Wines. That's R-O-M-A, Roma Wines. Those excellent California wines that can add so much pleasantness to the way you live, to your happiness in entertaining guests, to your enjoyment of everyday meals.

Yes, right now, a glass full would be very pleasant, as Roma wines bring you Rita Hayworth as Laura, with Hans Conrad as Elmer in a remarkable tale of... SUSPEN! They should know that I'm going to devote all of my remaining time to it.

I have before me a copy of a document delivered in person today to the District Attorney's Office by one, Redonia Bell. Redonia Bell was the trusted personal maid of Laura Starling Morton, whom you will remember from the widely publicized murder trial of just four months ago.

This document is a statement written by Laura Starling Morton in her own hand, and it begins as follows. Quote, I only regret that it will be impossible for me to be present when this is read aloud.

What I... I shall relate here, concerns three men. Of these three men, it is not only half of my husband Robert that I write, nor on behalf of my husband Charles. This is for Elmo.

But I don't think that Elmo will ever see it. For Elmo too is going to die. Yes Robert. Well where's my electric razor? In the medicine cabinet where it always is. Oh for the love of both.
