Fight all one to one to one to quickly please. For the first time in history Scotland Yard opens its secret files to bring you the authentic true stories of some of its most baffling cases.

These are the true simply the names of the participants have for obvious reasons been changed. The stories are presented with the full cooperation of Scotland Yard. Research on Fight All 1212 is prepared by Percy Hoskins, Chief Crime Reporter of the London Daily Express.

I try to get it back from him. Patricia Emmons, who married a stranger. To my sorrow. Chief Inspector Grant McCrimmon of Scotland Yard. I think that she Superintendent John Davison has it here in the Black Museum.

The one bit of evidence upon which the whole case turned. Shall we go inside and ask him to show it to us? Come on in. Oh, it's not half as gruesome in here as people that have you believe, so don't be squeamish.

Good afternoon, Meg. This is Chief Superintendent John Davidson, ladies and gentlemen. How do you do? I expect you're glad to see that this is not a chamber of horrors, as to sometimes represented, and that I'm not a master monster.

This black museum, as we call it, is merely a repository for items that are figured in crimes of various sorts. It's regrettable that so many of those crimes of a murder, these things are here for a purpose.
