TARZAN THE UNTAMED (CHAPS 11-12)

Markham and Vance continue to question suspects but progress is slow. Finally, Vance suggests they go after Mannix- the only remaining love interest. Vance's theory places two men, unknown to each other, hiding in Ms.O'Dell's apartment the night of her murder.

A good lead directs Markheim to a neurologist who was seeing the Canary often at night, and, after beggining the interview in a haughty manner, he became extremely agitated nupon having to give the details of where he was the night of the murder.   Enjoy archives from all 12 1001 shows at www.1001bestof1001stories.com.

As the investigation continues, some breaks come to Markheim - notably, the man who dated Miss O'Dell on her last night comes forward and relates his story to the D.A., who knows him to be a reputable man.  Fingerprints come in showing that one man in the apartment that night had served time in at least 5 prisons- althouhg not for murder. 

Markham and his detective question the key witnesses while Vance observes, but still no answer as to how Ms. Odell's killer got in the apartment, unless he was hiding in there through the day- which the maid's testimony pretty well destroyed.

Detectives scour thecrime scene where the young woman was murdered to try to determine what evidence was left and what exactly happened and why.  Philo Vance is asked to tag along and while there he brings up a number of very good suggestions- including dusting the inside handle of a closet door- the closet being the only area of the apartment that hasn't been turned upside by the perpetrators, who were searching for something. The search included a stell jewel box which had been forced open.   Looking for some great storioes & novel? Check out our new website at www.bestof1001stories.com today!

Betsy Ross is credited as being the seamstress who stitched our first "Stars and Stripes", but some historians say that there is no proof of it. The story was handed down through her family and shared by her grandson William Canby at a Philadephia celebration of our Declaration of Independence in 1876. Betsy Ross suffered the fate of many wives during the American Revolution, losing two husbands to the war. Her can-do attitude and her willingness to help her country in any way she could is still honored today.  Music by our friend Dusty Roads. Learn more about your ad choices.

I once was lost, but now I am found, Was blind, but now I see. 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved. How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed. Through many dangers, toils and snares I have already come, 'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far And grace will lead me home. The Lord has promised good to me His word my hope secures; He will my shield and portion be, As long as life endures. Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail, And mortal life shall cease I shall possess within the veil, A life of joy and peace. When we've been there ten thousand years Bright shining as the sun, We've no less days to sing God's praise Than when we've first begun. Learn more about your ad choices.
