1:26Name states and places in the following story are fictitious for obvious reasons. The events themselves are a matter of record. I'd like to talk to the ladies for a moment. We can't eliminate your work for you, which we could, but if your job is keeping a home in order, we'll try to lighten the load with a series of wonderful weekday radio shows on this same NBC station. Water Oak Keif is your genial host on double or nothing, and Oak Keif's okay. Set your dial to double or nothing, and the laughter will add a bit of brightness to your day. Another friend of yours is Radio's Warren Hall, who daily presides over strike at rich, the program with a heart. The program that can give you a lift while bringing financial happiness to a contestant. Dave Galway is another gloom chaser in NBC's daytime schedule.
2:30And Bob and Ray, this year's Peabody Award-winning comics, makes subtle fun of radio in a rib tickling way, so be sure to include them in your listening tool. Yes, as I said before, I wish we could eliminate your housework, but since we can't, maybe listening to these fine NBC shows will help to pass the time more quickly. Why don't you try it out tomorrow and every day this week? Now, Tails of the Texas Rangers. And now, from the files of the Texas Rangers, the case called Double Edge. It is 11.30 on a Monday morning in June during the early 1920s. The town of Holden, Texas, an elderly woman, was through a telephone call to the back. That's right, operator. A 4-2-3-j. Now you can be quiet, baby. You know your mother doesn't like you to cry.
3:31Mr. Lael? Mrs. Agatha Winford, how are you today? Well, just five things, Ms. Whiteford. Say what you hold on a second, please. Just a minute. Yes, you're very quiet, Ms. Morgan. All right, bye. Now, what can I do for you, Ms. Whiteford? Oh, well, I'm over here. Ms. Johnson, mine, you know, baby, while she's my son, and I thought she wouldn't mind if I used a phone to call you. Yes, ma'am. Well, I just got a notice from you this morning, and I want to tell you, the bank's made an awful mistake in my town. What is the mistake, Ms. Swinsha? Well, I know I've got $43 left in my check-in account, but that notice you said I've only got $23, and now that's just not so. Now, we're very careful here, ma'am. Maybe you made some kind of mistake in your decision. No, I did do. Would you please excuse me, Ms. Whiteford, can you hold on while I take care of a customer here? Well, all right. Yes, ma'am. Look at that. Oh. Wow. I'll be with you in a minute, baby. Baby. Oh. Baby, outside. Oh, well. Oh.
4:31No. Baby. Don't you cry. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. All right. You all right. Great. Sí, muy bien. Very nice. Thank you. What a lovely show. Super fun. I love it. I want the baby. I love it. Oh. Let me give you that rest in the back of the draw. I don't have it alone. You want your dreams blowin' out? Give me that money. Oh. Mr. Man. Mr. Gott. Mr. Man. Oh. Uh-oh. tego, Suganna? So you're giving that across and?.. Oh, this is awful! Operators! Operators! Oh, why don't you answer? Operators! Operators!
5:33Mrs. Winford notified the sheriff that the bank was being held up. Within a matter of minutes, the sheriff raced to the scene. Only the fine that the hold-up men had already made a getaway. After a preliminary survey, the sheriff requested assistance from the Texas Rangers. Ranger, a jace person, was assigned and arrived at the bank 15 minutes later. Over here, jace. Howdy, sheriff. I'm glad you could get here so fast. It was only about 10 miles away when my headquarters contacted me. Fellow that held up this place sure had a lot of nerve. How many were there? Only two, as far as I can gather. One of them kept the customers in the back. The other one got the money from the teller. Took nearly $6,000. Anybody able to identify them? Nope, they were both wearing bandannas over their faces. I'm about to get away. Anybody see them after they left the bank? Not a soul that I could find seemed like they just disappeared into thin air. We did get one break, though. What's that? Well, the teller keeps an extra $200 in his drawer just in case the bank is held up. $10.20 is with a special market. How are the bills mine? There's a green dot inked in under the first letter of the serial number.
6:33Naturally, the bank's got a record of the numbers. I'm going to help with some. We'll get out of the circular. Tomorrow morning, every bank police officer in Texas will have a copy. It beats me how these fellows had so much nerve. Had it planned right down to the last move. They even took into consent. Oh, there's Jim Vance coming out of that office. He's a teller. Reckon, he's bringing that list to serial numbers, huh? Got that list of numbers for us, Jim? Yes, sir. Right here. But there was something else I want to say about what's that? Well, now I forgot all about this in excitement. The man who was holding customers in the back, he passed me on his way out here. He seemed to be having trouble with his bandana. He slipped down a little just so he got alongside my window. You mean you've got to look at his face? Well, no, sir. Not exactly. But it did say one thing. Remember that while I was writing out those numbers just now, get a mole under his eye. Pretty good size one, too. Which eye was it under? Right. No. Now I got to twist it out of the face in him so it must have been his left eye. Well, we've got some information for that bulletin, Jason. Yeah, let's put it on the wires. We brought gas to list the serial numbers and a vague description of the bank robbers.
7:41The first day brought no results. On the morning of the second day, I received a call from Sam Crane, Constable in a town of Compton, 30 miles from the scene of the robbery. He told me to bank in Compton and reported receiving one of the marked bills the day before. Sheriff wasn't free at the moment, so I went to Compton alone. Ten that morning I entered the Constable's office. Well, Jay. Howdy, Crane. Good to see you again. Real good. Been a long time since we worked together. Over a year. What about that marked bill and bank tell you who brought it in? I took the bank a little while to find out. Had to go through all their deposit slips from yesterday. Finally told me it was the owner of a hardware store here. Man, by the name of Alan. Is he sure about that? Yeah, and we might be lucky. It was the only 20 in his deposit for yesterday. I haven't checked him yet. Well, no, I thought it might be better if you did it. See, Alan, then I don't get along very well. Don't think he'd be too cooperative with me. And this thing's too important to take a chance. Uh-huh. Tell me where his place is, I'll go see him. It's just down the street. I'll go along with you, Jay. But if you don't mind, I'll let you do the talking.
8:41Sure. You figure this Alan's that have been involved in the robbery himself. Him? No, Jay. Oh, man, Alan's over 60. I'll come, you two don't get along. Well, about a year ago, I bought some tools from him. No good, any of them. Your old buzzard never would let me have my money back. I'm sure hope he can give us something to go on. Well, Alan does remember who handed him this bill. My guess is, it'll turn out to be somebody. He was just passed through comfort. Maybe so. Oh, hot him, Miss Palmer. Well, tell the truth. I've been pretty busy since you came in this morning. Anyhow, I was sure your husband would be back by now. Please not. I told you one night, yesterday afternoon, right after he got that phone call, just never stayed away like this without saying where he was going. Now, Mrs. Palmer, he'll turn up. But he didn't even take the car. Whenever he goes away, he always takes it. Maybe he's over to his brother's place. Bet you haven't even called there, haven't you? Well, no, I have. Why don't you go home, then? He's probably been trying to reach you. But it's 20 miles over to his brother's house. He couldn't get there without the car. Maybe he got a ride. Now, you'd run a long home before he gets worried wondering why he can't reach you.
9:43All right, Tom. You think he's busy, isn't he? Yeah. No, that husband of hers has always taken all of it. You sure he's not missing? Yeah. If Palmer takes a note to go somewhere, he goes. He's only been away one night. I swear it never rains, but it pours. For three weeks, nothing's happened here. Now, I got more work than I can handle. Well, he's the hardware store. Hope Old Man Allen, memory, he's better than I think it is. Well, a few cars to work. But I told you, just want to do business with you no more. Don't worry, Alan. I wouldn't think of buying anything from this store. Ranger Pearson here wants to ask you a few questions. All right. What's on your mind, Ranger? We have that bill, Crane. For sure, Chase. Mr. Allen, you deposited this bill in the bank yesterday. What's the matter, Conifer? It's part of the money that was stolen from a bank and holding. Well, you mean in that big robbery over there in Monday? That's right. That's so. I read about the paper. This was the only 20-year deposit yesterday. Do you remember who brought it in here?
10:43Whatever. See you. No, Ranger, don't reckon to do. Now, I was afraid he wouldn't, Chase. Just what do you mean by that, Conifer? I'll wait a minute, both of you. I'm sorry, Ranger. Just give me a second or two. Maybe I can remember the fellow that brought it in. Let's take your time. See, no, it's been... No, no, you just can't bring him to mind. Do you have any idea if it was yesterday morning or in the afternoon you got the bill? Good and say. What time do you take the money to the bank? About 2.30, same time I always do. I see. And how much cash do you usually have on hand when you open the store in the morning? Maybe $25, $30. Just enough to make change. If somebody handed you $20 bill any time before noon, is it pretty much clean out your cash store, wouldn't it? Yeah, I reckon it would. Well, then isn't it a pretty good chance you received the bill sometime between noon and the time you went to the bank? Well, I never thought of it that way. But I still don't... Oh, wait a minute. Yeah, it's coming back to me now. I just finished eating in this fellow comming and bought a box of shotgun shells.
11:44He was the one that gave me the 20. You sure about that? Yes, I'm sure. Did you know the man, Mr. Allen? Well, I've seen him around town and don't know his name. Could be lives in one of them farms outside Compton. Could you give us a description of him? Well, I ate much of a hand at telling people what other people look like. What do you remember if he had a mole under his left eye? A mole. Got you the truth range room. Just not sure. Maybe he did, but I can't swear when we're the other. All right, Mr. Allen. Thanks a lot. Well, one thing I'll say if I was to see this fellow again, I'd know him. I hope we can show him to you soon. Come on, Crane. Let's get back to your office. I still think the old man made a mistake, Jace. That bank job wasn't pulled by any local boys. Maybe not. There's no doubt one of them in where after was around here. We've got C.P. still around. On this parmer. What are you doing here? I'm sorry to make a pierce to myself, Constable.
12:45That's all right. I called Jeff's brother. He isn't over there. I don't know where he is. Now he'll turn up. Something's happened to him. I know it. Ranger, maybe you can help me. Isn't there anything I can do to find my husband? Well, you could have the Constable file a missing person's report. That way all the police in the state would be on the lookout for him. Well, you do that, Constable. Oh, sure, Ms. Palmer. But I think before you do that, you ought to give Jeff a little longer to show up. I can't wait any longer. I couldn't sleep all last night. I know something's happened to him. All right, I'll file a report. So long since I've filled one out, I'm not even sure I've got the form. I've got some in the car if you need him. Oh, here's one. Now, Mrs. Palmer, you're all out the same. Why don't you go on hold? I'll fill this out myself. I don't forget, Kramer. Mrs. Palmer has to sign the form. Oh, yeah. Probably be better if she fills in the description anyhow. What kind of a description do you need, Ranger? Usual description, hike, weight, color of hair, and eyes. Anything we can use to identify him. Well, Jeff looks just about like anybody else.
13:46I know two people are alike, Mrs. Palmer. There must be something that's different about him. I can't think of anything except maybe a mole. I say. He's got a mole. Under his left eye. In just a moment, we will continue with tales of the Texas Ranger, starring Joel McRae as Ranger, Jason Pearson. As a civilian at home, what is your obligation to a soldier in a foxhole in Korea? Maybe you haven't considered that question. If you haven't, it's understandable. A foxhole in Korea is pretty remote after all from your everyday life. And it wouldn't help if you were constantly worrying. But if you have stopped to consider it, the least we can do here at home in the States is to help keep America financially strong. That's the best way to back up the men in the Army, Navy, and Air Force. One of the best ways to help keep America financially strong
14:46is to buy United States defense bonds regularly. If you think you can't afford it, look into the payroll savings plan where you work. You'll probably change your mind. You can have any amount you specify saved from each paycheck. When there's enough for a defense bond, it is purchased and turned over to you. And remember, today defense bonds offer you more interest to quick a return on your money. They're now even better. Invest more in defense bonds. Now tails of the Texas Rangers.

We continue now with tails of the Texas Rangers and our authentic story, Double Edge. I was fairly sure now that Jeff Palmer was one of the two men we were after. Continued questioning of his wife convinced me she knew nothing of the bank robbery. We put out an APB on Palmer three days later I had a call from the sheriff. A man whose description matched Palmer's had been found dead in a creek near Compton. The quickest way for me to get there was on horseback through two miles of brush
16:55when I reached the creek I afford to head it up screen to the spot where the sheriff and his men were waiting. Howdy Sheriff. Good thing you had your horse, Jason. It's just 20 miles of driving. Yeah, a whole wheelchair. We found the body. Those fellows over there. They were out fishing. Spotted man's arms sticking out of the water. Body had been wired to an old log, but it looks like one of the wires worked loose. Let's take a look at it. Right over here, Jason. Pretty sure it's Palmer. Well, description checks for the one whose wife signed. So I reckon it seems. Here we are. Yeah. Shot four times. Fellow did it. Must have been standing right next to him. Somebody really wanted to make sure he was dead. I wonder why Palmer was killed. Well, there's only two reasons I can think of. Either to shut him up or keep him from getting his share of the money. Maybe both. Sounds reasonable. If we find the second man in that bank robber, we'll probably have the one who killed Palmer. There don't seem to be much to go on.
17:55One thing we can be pretty sure of, he was killed right here. How do you figure that? Tense been made to cover it up, but you can still see quite a bit of blood on the ground here. Yeah, I noticed that, but I thought he could have been killed somewhere else and brought here. And there wouldn't be all this blood, not much bleeding after death. Well, he would have been smart of the killer to do the job here. Certainly not many people around. No, we'll have to go over the area. You checked that cabin up on the hill, Sheriff. Where? To those trees. No, I didn't notice it before. A person who lives there could have heard the shots. We better talk to him. Okay. Opening in that bride. We can go up through here. Uh-huh. And it's pretty much trampled from here on up the hill. Somebody's come down almost to the spot where Palmer was killed in the past few days, too, from the look of it. You think whoever lives in that cabin had something to do with his business? Good deed. They might have been hiding out here together and then, hey, Jess. And then just back behind that tree, got there. Yeah. Look, he's starting up the hill.
18:56Hold it right where you are. Hold it, I said. It's dangerous. I-I said nothing. Nobody's saying you have. What's your name? Dan Bolton, sir. Living that cabin up there? Yes, sir. Stay around there pretty much, do you? Most of the time. Except about once a week, I take my mule and go into town. Are there any shooting around here in the last couple of days? Yes, sir, I have. When was this? Oh, it was about four days ago. I was smoking some meat back at the cabin. Now, here's some shootings that have come down the hill to see what it was. Mr. Ranger, please don't ask me no more questions, Dan. It's very important we find out what happened. You could help us. Well, all right, sir. Soon as I hear the shots, I come about halfway down the hill. Could you see anybody? I've seen a man bendin' over another man on the ground. I ducked down quick in here as brush.
19:56I scared if you'd see me, you'd shoot me too, you see his face. Yes, sir. You know who he was? No, sir. I don't think you're telling us the truth, Dan. Mr. Ranger, I-I just live here in my cabin. I don't hurtin' about it, and I don't want to bother hurtin' me. Dan, tell us who the man was you saw down here the other day. I can't, Mr. Ranger. I'm scared nothin''s gonna happen to you. I can promise you that. Well, like I said, I was hiding here in the brush. I-I didn't see this man's face good till he picked the other man up and gave him over to the priest. Then I'll see him real plain who was it, Dan. The constable in the Compton is to say him cream. We questioned the old man further. He was absolutely sure it was constable Sam Crane, he had seen. We took Dan back into town with us. When we arrived the mortuary where the dead man's body had been taken,
20:56we put Dan in an office next to the mord. And I phoned the constable and asked him to come over as quickly as possible. The sheriff and I stayed in the room with Palmer's body. Five minutes later, train walked in. I got you as quick as I could, Jace. What's this all? Oh, Sheriff. Howdy, Crane. You wanted me for something? I found the body of a man. It could be Palmer. It's like you to identify him. Well, sure, but why me? Why didn't you get Miss Palmer? I wanted to be sure we were right before we called her down here. There's no use getting any more upset when we have to. I didn't know him very well, Jace. Didn't you? Funny. I got the idea you did. Is that the body over there? Yeah, never take a look. Where'd you find him? Then Creek, about 10 miles from here. Let me see back with you, Sheriff. Sure he is. Well, Crane. Oh. You can cover him up again. It's Jeff Palmer. Who killed him? I thought maybe you could tell us that. Me? Where were you at 11.30 Monday morning?
21:57Monday. Uh-huh. Where were you? Well, I don't know, Jace. I was in my office working. I reckon you weren't, Crane. Look. I lost Tuesday. The day after the bank was robbed and holed him. The afternoon the Jeff Palmer disappeared. Well, Jace, why you asked me all these questions? Because we think you and Palmer robbed that bank and holed him. What? The morning after the stick-up, you got the circular, saying some of the money was hot. Oh, wait a minute, Jace. Went out to Warren Palmer. And when you found out he'd already spent some of the money, and it would probably be traced, you had to shut him up. He took him out to Creek and killed him. You're crazy, Jace. If I did that, you think I'd have reported finding one of the stolen bills? You had to do that. You hadn't reported it to the bank would, and you knew it. That's a pretty serious accusation you're making, Jace. I wouldn't be making it unless I was pretty sure of what I was saying. How can you be so sure? I'm in the next room with his crane. What for? You'll find out better take his gun and share it. Look, you're always still here. That's better. Now, come on. I'm friend, you turned out to be. You think I like doing this? Dan? Who's this? Dan.
22:57Take a look at this, man. Yes? You know him? Yes, sir. You sure you know him? Hey, yes, sir. He's Mr. Sam Craig. What did you see him, man? Mr. Ranger. Just tell us where you saw him, Dan. Out the creek in my place. You're alive? Hold it, Crane. Dan, when you saw him out of the creek, what was he doing? He took some man off the ground and put him in the creek. That's a lie. Jace, I've known you for 10 years. You're going to take his way to guess mine? Yes, I am. Would I give me a chance? You had your chance when Thomas' wife came in and reported him missing. You tried to brush her off. You're alive. I didn't know why you were so laxed in, but I do now. You were afraid we'd find your partner's body. Why are you away? I'll kill you. You're alive. I don't think you will. Try that again, Crane. You can't railroad me like this. I'm still a police officer. That's something I've been ashamed of for the past three hours. Come on. During the ride to the county jail, Crane said nothing, but the hate and bitterness showed in his eyes.
24:07We booked him for murder and locked him up. We searched his house and found the money from the bank robbery so it inside a mattress. Two months later, Crane was tried in the district court of Holden for armed robbery and murder. They say if you want to go fast, go alone. But if you want to go far, go together.

As the arresting officer, I was subpoenaed and took the stand against him. The trial lasted a week. When the jury left the courtroom, I went outside and stood on the courthouse steps. After a while, a sheriff came out and walked toward me. Well, it's all over the place. Jury recommended the chair. They didn't seem to have any trouble deciding he was guilty. No, I'm not. I didn't know you'd walked out the last of the jury came back. Sorry, I didn't get a good verdict. It's all right, Sheriff. I wasn't anxious to hear it. Jake, you don't mind my saying so. You're taking this thing too hard. The crane is no good. He rotten clean through. You ought to be glad you helped him get what he deserves. Somehow I can't feel that way. It's bad enough sending the man to the chair any time. Somebody you've known and worked with. Yeah.
26:07I reckon I understand how you feel. The old deputies are bringing him out now. I was hoping I'd see you before they took me away, Pearson. Hello, Crane. Wait a minute, boys. I got a few words to say to Pearson here. Never mind what you've got to say. Charlie, take him on. Just a second. What were you going to say, Crane? You think you're pretty smart, don't you? Testifying against me like you did. Only did what I had to. Yeah. Well, listen, Pearson. I'll get you. I'll get you over the last thing I do. Sorry, you feel that way. You hear me, Pearson? I'm going to get you. Thank you, boys. I'll get you, Pearson. I'll get you. Pearson, I'll get you. There he is. Come on, Sheriff. Let's go get some coffee. I went back to headquarters a week later on the big crane was to be taken for County Jail to the Penitentiary. I received a message saying the sheriff won to see me and drove to Holden and went to the sheriff's office. Sorry to bring you all the way back here, Jason. I hope you're not going to be sore at me.
27:08Well, it's about crane. I was supposed to leave for Huntsville with him two hours ago. How trouble is that? Oh, no. Not a bit. Matter of fact, ever since he was sentenced, Crane's been a changed man. How do you mean? Well, his whole attitude is different, Jason. He even asked the judge to move up his electrocution date. Said he wanted to get it over with as quick as possible. He asked to see you, Jason. What for? You've got no idea how sorry he is for the way he acted last week. When he begged to see you, well, it was one favor I just couldn't refuse him. Glad you didn't. Where is he? I got him locked up back here. We're all set to leave you. Want to wait till I bring him out? I'll go with you. I just can't get over the way he changed. I reckon it's no one he's going to die. It didn't. Well, whatever it is, I'm happy to hear he has changed. You know, I'm bad. I've felt about this whole thing. Yeah, and last week, I thought you were wrong. No, I'm ready to eat my words. Here we are. Crane? Okay, sir. I've got to hold a jace for you. Oh.
28:08Thanks, sir. Hello, Crane. Jason, I don't know how to say this. Don't worry about it. I understand. No, I've got to say it. I figured out it doesn't ways of telling him, and none of them seems right. I reckon the best way is just to say, I'm sorry. That's all right, Crane. I've been thinking about it the way I blew off it. I was wrong. You just did what you had to do. Jason, will you shake hands with me? Sure I will. All right. I reckon we better get moving, boys. Would you do a favor for me, Jason? If I can, there's a girl over in Compton. We've been going together a few years. Might have been married someday. You want me to go see her? Would you, Jason, drop in on her every now and then, and see if she's getting along all right. I'd be glad to. I'd like to show you a picture of her. Sheriff, is that my statue over there? Yeah. All packed. Ready to go. There's a picture of my girl in it. Could I have it?
29:08Sure, Crane. It's right on top. I feel real sorry for that, Jason. All the publicity. This is in the leather frame? Yeah. I never deserved a girl like her in the first place. Thanks. What do you think of her, Jason? Pretty girl. That she is. Here. Let me get it into a better light. Now you can see what I wanted you to see. Jason's got a razor blade. I told you I'd kill you. Little late of my arm. Drop that blade. Drop it, man. Oh, it cops on him, Sheriff. Yeah. The dirty lousy. Shut up. Shut up. She had a known veteran to trust him.
