What happens
Johnny Dollar, an insurance investigator for the Mutual Insurance Company, is sent to Uniontown after the death of wealthy widow Mrs. Minard. Her late will has suddenly changed, and her secretary Danny Pringle now stands to inherit the estate. Her niece Dora, who had cared for her for years, has been cut off. Radio's Johnny Dollar, starring Bob Bailey, follows the investigation as Dollar questions the people around the widow and examines the two wills. The series aired on CBS Radio, and this episode's original air date was April 2, 1961.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
