The Lester James Matter (no ending)

Well, you're listening enjoyment. John Lund has... Johnny Dollar. Ned Talbot, Johnny. What are you working on? Why, nothing at the moment. I was thinking of going to New York for a couple of days. Why?

Well, I have one here on my desk. You might be able to... Well, tell me about it. How much of a shortage? I'm supposed to find out who took it. Huh? Well, I'm going to New York anyway. I'll see what I can do.

Expense accounts submitted by Special Investigator Johnny Dollar to the Continental Adjustment Bureau. Bureau for 18 Elizabeth Avenue, Hartford, Connecticut. The following is an accounting of expenditures during my investigation of the Lester James matter.

Expense account item one, $32.56. Frained fair and incidentals between Hartford, New York City. After receiving from Ned Talbot, the necessary information concerning the indemnity claim of Wallace Cotton's and company incorporated. I arrived in New York at 1.30 in the afternoon and checked in at the New Weston.

Central Division told me that Lester James is being held from the 17th precinct jail. I went right over. Well, here we are, darling. But there get easy, James. This is Johnny Dollar. He wants to talk to you.

Hello, James. Hi. I'll see you later, darling, huh? Yeah, thanks, darling. You'll give me a yell when you finish, huh? Right. Now, what are you? Lawyer or something? No. I don't want to go here.

Said somebody be around to talk to me again, but I don't want to see anybody. Why not? I just don't want to see anybody, that's all. I'm gonna have to be represented by counsel when you go in the court.
