Blackbeard's Ace

And now, a tale well calculated to keep you in... Sauce Spence. In a moment, act one of Blackbeard's Ace, starring Elaine Rost and John Thomas, and written especially for suspense by Jack Butram. This first portion of suspense is brought to you by the makers of Marlborough Cigarettes.

I have never believed in ESP, extra sensory perception. Oh, I had heard of universities conducting tests of this mental phenomenon, but their studies covered only those messages

transmitted from one living subject to another. The messages that came to me were just a little transmitted by the dead. Charles, my husband, was worried about my dreams. And after he finished his last book, he suggested a rest for the tours on the Carolina coast.

Margot, you remember Aunt Ida? She lives down on the coast near Charleston? What about her? Well, she's invited us to vacation in a sea coast cabin she has in her hands. Sound good? Oh, well, I don't know, Charles. You think we should? With your writing and all? I just have the feeling.

Oh, come on, Margot. She says she can't get a buyer, and the place is just standing idle, so let's go. I... Well, alright, honey. You remember the last time we went away. I had that awful dream.

Now, dearest, the doctor said those dreams were all cured. You're as good as new. Charles, they weren't dreams. They were real. They happened. I know they did. Oh, alright. Whatever they were, they're all gone now.
