What happens
Elliot Darby, the last of an old San Diego family, is about to marry his second cousin Catherine Peabody for her money. At the altar he sees a woman he thought he had left behind, and he recalls how he came to be married to her. The Whistler, a long-running West Coast radio mystery series, aired this episode on April 23, 1950. Bill Foreman, Hans Conried, Mary Jane Croft and Mary Lansing appear in the cast. Elliot's sense of control is shaken as his past and his plans begin to collide.

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.
