About this recording

Colonel Middleton is entrusted by his critically ill military superior, Sir John Danvers, with carrying some valuable family jewels from India back to his nephew, Ralph, in England. Ralph is a younger son, but is favoured over his brother, Sir Charles Danvers, who becomes a suspect when, in the course of a large house party and some amateur theatricals, the jewels go missing. The story follows what happens to the jewels. (Summary by Simon Evers)
