And now stay tuned for the Mystery Program that is unique among all Mystery Programs. Because even when you know who is guilty, you always receive a startling surprise at the final curtain. In the Signal Oil Program, the Whistler.

A woman on the front porch waiting to speak to John Granger as he stepped from the car and started up the porch steps. It was the housekeeper and she was very excited, upset. John Granger could tell it even before she spoke.

And he also knew that her excitement concerned his wife, Lillian. Mr. Granger, I'm so glad you're home. What is it Mrs. Albert? What's wrong? Mrs. Granger, yes. There's been an accident. She caught her wrist.
