The Leland Blackburn Matter

From Hollywood, it's time now for Edmund O'Brien as... Johnny Dalla. Jean Rimer is dead. This is wife no yet. She was... Oh sure, Galla. I'll come right over and get the rest of the story from you.

Edmund O'Brien, another adventure of the man with the action-packed expense accounts. America's fabulous freelance insurance investigator. Yours truly Johnny Dalla. Expense accounts submitted by special investigator Johnny Daller to Home Office, Plymouth Insurance Company, Hartford, Connecticut.

The following is an accounting of expenditures during my investigation of the Leland Blackburn method. Expense account item 1250 cab fare from my apartment to the Plymouth building. Hey, Johnny. Yeah? Oh, hi, Merle. What is on on here?

It was Gene Rimer shooting. I wondered if it heard. He talked a lot about you. You were a good friend. We learned the business together in the Penguinen Agency. Almost opened our own office. It didn't pan out.

I wish I had had. We're going to miss him around here. He was a great guy. Yeah. Bob Hall's waiting for you, Marlai. Better get in there. Sure. Good luck, Johnny. Waiting for you. Go right in.

Thanks. Hiya, Bob. Thanks for coming right over, Johnny. Wouldn't have blamed you if you turned it down. I got it. I feel pretty awful about it. I gave the case to Gene myself. He wasn't up for one, but there would have been some extra money for him.

I knew he needed it. He didn't have to take the case. He didn't have to earn a living this way. It's a funny thing for you to say. Well, there's no other way to look at it.

you can't have trouble forever without finally running into some i got the idea that you were his friend i was but you are hiring a friend bob you're hiring an investigator you want to go to work unless i better get some facts i don't understand you what about the case he was on
