 Now to continue our story Sergeant Preston with King at his side went down the main street toward the Northwest mounted police headquarters As he was about to go in a man. I'm Sergeant Preston. I've been waiting here for you. I recognize you because of the dog I'm Jim Belden Jim Belden. I Trailed you from Whitehorse. I thought you would sir. I Want to talk to you about what happened if you listen you mean you want to give yourself up. It isn't that I didn't kill anyone Wells was already dead when I went to his room Why'd you run away? I came here to find someone someone. I thought would clear me Why'd you go to Wells room at the hotel to warn him and to prevent him from being murdered? I see Who did you expect was going to try to kill well right? I'd rather not tell you the whole story. I know he'll clear me. You won't have a chance to find him now Belden I'll have to take you under custody. Oh, please give me a chance. I won't try to get away I swear I won't tell me Jim who else besides may make Grant knew you went on that so-called business trip to Whitehorse No one and that is only the person I want to find in other words Jim You expect if you find that person and he'll confess and clear you well Yes, Jim that doesn't make sense Wells was murdered because he carried a small fortune in gold And you say the man who killed him will give up that gold and confess just to clear you You'd have to be a mighty close friend of yours do a thing like that Oh Wells wasn't killed for his gold at all sergeant. That's just it. You see Wells was a murderer himself That killing was for revenge. You're wrong Jim. I've known Wells for many years. He never wronged anyone Who told you he was a murderer? I I Can't tell you that now never mind keep your secret Jim. I have my own idea about it anyway Who didn't kill Joe Wells? After hearing what Jim Belden had to say Preston took him to a cabin where the sergeant and King stayed when in Dawson City Leaving King with Jim sergeant Preston went back to the cafe for another talk with Mamie Grant Luckily he found Mamie sitting alone at one of the tables. I thought you'd be interested didn't know that I found Jim Belden Jim didn't leave Dawson. No fight. I didn't have to search for him. He came to me the stories rather a strange one He thinks anyone would believe that story. He's crazy. What story? The one he told you that is trying to put the blame on someone else when I talked to you before Miss Grant She pretended not to know what had happened I was stalling for time. That's all they helped Jim But since he went to you and told you that Jim told me practically nothing except that he's not guilty He's very foolishly covering up for someone and I thought perhaps you might know who it is How should I know? After all Jim and I were going together, but Now well Personally, I think I've been mistaken about him. Oh in what way? He's accused of murder and I'm inclined to believe he did it. He wanted money quickly hoping I might marry him then My advice is to disregard whatever he tells you and go but you advise miss grant I left Jim waiting at my cabin There's something with him that will definitely prove who the killer is You mean Jim Belden found something in well's hotel room that was left by But the one he says got there first and killed well I've said too much already so you could believe what you like Do it headquarters for meeting with the inspector I'll see you again sometime miss grant. Good night After sergeant Preston left barkeep, then she went up to her room A short time later ken came in What's up, Leany? That malty ken. He was here again to talk to me Well, what about it? He found Jim Belden That was quick work on a part of the malty Belden in jail? That's just it. He isn't in jail That sergeant Preston isn't convinced that Jim killed well Jim must have told the malty the story we cooked up and we Oh, no, no, that fool Belden is still keeping his mouth shut for my sake He thinks you will go and clear him That's sure a hot one I know The main reason I sent for you ken Because of something that malty said without meaning to Yeah? What? He said Jim was waiting in his cabin And that he had something that would definitely prove who the real killer is But But what could Belden have? I'm sure he couldn't have found anything of mine in that room And that's something you can't be too sure about ken The only thing to do is to try to find out what it is the malty was talking about How can I do that? Well listen sergeant Preston has a meeting on at headquarters He just left here to go there Meantime Jim Belden is waiting at Preston's cabin out on the edge of town This is your chance to go out and see him ken Yeah Yeah, so it is Tell him you're going to help him And that we want to talk to him You mean you want me to bring him back here? No, don't be a fool Once you get him to leave that cabin of Preston's I don't care what you do Yeah You can leave it to me We won't have anything to worry about after tonight Belden sat waiting in his favorite spot near the fireplace Suddenly ken was startled by a knock at the door Hello Jim Ken I found out you were here and came right over I'm sure glad you're here Come in a minute Quiet king, quiet boy, this is a friend How did you know I was waiting here? Brad, malty Preston told me me Oh, I see Now look, get your things on and come over to the cafe to talk to Mamie and me We'll get things straightened out tonight But I promised to wait here for the malty Oh, he's over at the cafe now We'll tell him the whole story Well, all right I'm sorry you didn't tell him about Joe Wells before Ken You shouldn't have taken the law into your own hands like that He deserved what he got Let's get going All right, I'll get my parking I was afraid Mamie had changed toward me She acted strange when I talked to her Oh, Mamie was worried about both of us She didn't know just what to do Yeah, the poor girl, I guess she was under a strain at that She sure was Well, you have to stay here king and wait for sergeant Preston Lie down fella Hurry up, Jim All right, I'm ready Stay there We'll take this shortcut along the ravine, Jim The sooner we get there the better All right, let's go The two men walked along the narrow trail They boarded a deep ravine on the edge of town Gosh, I feel better already You know, Ken, I'm glad you came for me like you did Tell about you following Wells to Whitehorse Oh, then Preston has no idea about it Nope, I did tell him I didn't kill Wells But I wouldn't tell him anything else for Mamie's sake Jim, what was it you found in that hotel room? Something I draw? What do you mean? Stop stalling Preston told Mamie you had something at the cabin with you I don't know what he could have meant by that Let's get moving No, wait Oh, hey, what's that for, Ken? Why do you pull a gun on me? You little trustin' fool Mamie doesn't care a rap about you You came in handy, that's all I can't believe that until we talked to him You're tired But I thought you were gonna... You thought I was fool enough to clear you at my own expense, eh? Preston was right, Jim Joe Wells never killed anybody Then... And you did follow and kill him for his goal Now you're waking up Well, you won't have a chance of getting away with it Sergeant Preston and everyone else will think you got cold feet And cleared out when they can't find you What do you mean? I mean I'm puttin' a bullet in you and tossin' you in the ravine What? When the thaw comes a water down there Will carry your body away from... Told about you And you won't get the chance This is it, Bellin As Sergeant Preston shouted, Ken Grant turned momentarily His hesitation was just long enough for King to spring forward Like a streak of lightning But the throaty growl King grabbed Genn's gun arm Before he could pull the trigger Take him off! My arm! Take him off! I'm hanging down! Sergeant Preston You and King got here just in time Ken was gonna kill me I know, Jim He was waiting near the cabin when he went there Mamie... Mamie said you were going to a meeting That's what she thought I told her Jim had something at the cabin It would prove you killed Joe Wells I was talking about King You... You can't prove that I don't know anything about Joe Wells' murder I'll get the truth before long Right now I'm taking you in for the attempted murder of Jim Bellin After we leave you at headquarters Jim and I have a call to make at the cafe All right, let's get going Later that evening Mamie Grant was waiting in her room for Ken to return Finally, she heard steps in a hallway outside And looked up expectantly as the door opened Hello, Mamie You? Didn't Ken go to that cabin? Yes, he went there, Miss Grant Come in, King Good morning, the door It seems surprise to see us Why did you come here with Jim Bellin? Where's my brother? You mean you aren't glad to see me, honey? Oh, don't honey me, you fool I want to know where you...

Then you've arrested him? That's right And I'm taking you there too For playing a part in the murder and robbery of Joe Wells You can't prove any such thing It's just Jim Bellin's word against mine No, you're wrong You'll have two against you Jim Bellin and your brother You mean Ken talked? He's a fool, I should have known he messed things up Oh, but listen, he planned everything Getting Jim into it was Ken's own idea He killed Wells alone I was still here in Dawson singing every night You were in accessory before the fact And you also planned with Ken to do away with Bellin I'm taking you to headquarters right now Oh, no Table drawer, King sprang instantly You're knocking her to the floor and knocking the gun from her hand Get him away Get him away Please get him away Get up, Miss Grant You're not hurt Oh, Jim Jim, don't let him take me to prison It was all Ken's fault Oh, please, Jim, for my sake, do something For your sake, I made a fool of myself, Mamie I'm through being the fool now, though You helped Ken plan Wells' murder And you even helped him plan mine Well, thank heaven, Sergeant Preston will see to it You don't make a fool out of any other man Oh, Jim Jim, how can you talk to me that way? Even King recognizes crocodile tears when he sees them King is a wonderful dog You saved my life, Sergeant I hate that dog as much as I hate you, Jim Bellin You'll have a long time to think about King and Jim Bellin in prison, Miss Grant But I'm sure both of them will soon forget you Yes, King, the case is closed In just a moment, Sergeant Preston will give you a preview of Monday's program Ask mother, she knows Yes, mother knows that quality comes first in a food That's why Quake, what's more, mother likes the fact that weed or rice shot from guns Makes an easy to fix, thrifty deluxe family breakfast with milk or cream and fruit For added health benefits, natural great amounts of vitamin B1, niacin and iron Are restored in Quakerpuff wheat and Quakerpuff rice Buy both delicious kinds tomorrow These radio dramas, a feature of the challenge of the Yukon Incorporated Are created and produced by George W.
