Presenting the transcription feature, Superman! And now, Superman, strange visitor from another world, was come down to Earth as the champion of the week and the oppressed. When we last saw him, Superman and his character of Clark Kent was in the library of Stone House in the suburb of Brentwood, attempting to revive Dr. George Haven Beach, a world-famous
scientist and explorer, who had been struck by a poisoned dart which came through the window. outside in the dark mysterious brown figures from the jungles of South America are a seaging stone house in an attempt to recover the sacred emerald of the Incas which Dr. Beecham brought back from his latest expedition.
Else, the doctor's daughter has vanished and so has his native servant Zingri. As our story continues today, an hour has passed. The taxi driver whom Superman found on the grounds has fled in terror to the cellar.
Dr. Beecham is rapidly recovering as Kent stands anxiously over him. Listen. What's that? Two o'clock, Doctor. You've been daylight another couple of hours. How are you feeling? Oh, I'm all right, I'm quite all right.
But Elsie, Kent, who has my daughter? Doctor, I don't know. She's out there somewhere. Kent, they've got her. Those murderers native. I don't think so, Doctor. I don't know where she is, but I don't think they've got her.
That taxi driver, where's he? Scared out of his wits. He's down on the cellar. Kent, the door. They're trying again. Block it up. Stay back, doctor. I'll handle this. What are you doing, man? Don't open it.
Doctor, did you hear that? I'll see your daughter. He'll see, darling. Miss Beigeham. Oh, help me. Quick! Who's that with you? Great Scott. Singery. It's singery. Oh, Dad. He's hurt. He's died. Get him in the close the door. Quick!
