Es ist nicht gerade die feine Art, seine Ehefrau vor anderen Menschen zu demütigen und zu kompromittieren. Daß Bella Manningham die Bloßstellungen schon beinahe an den Rand des Wahnsinns gebracht haben, ist nicht verwun derlich. Die immer wiederkehrenden Unterstellungen, sie hätte ein Bild von der Wand entfernt, den eigenen Hund mutwillig verletzt und ihren Schmuck verloren, bringen Entsetzen und Zweifel über sie. Bella glaubt an eine erbliche Belastung, denn ihre Mutter brachte man in eine Irrenanstalt. Jack Manningham nutzt dieses Wissen schamlos aus, um seine Frau zu verunsichern, damit er jeden Abend ohne sie das Haus verlassen kann. Er weiß nämlich, daß für Bella diese Abende zur Qual werden, denn sobald Jack Manningham gegangen ist, hört sie in der oberen Etage Geräusche, und das Gaslicht verliert an Leuchtkraft. Dann erhält Bella eines Abends den Besuch von Inspektor Rough. Er ist gekommen, um einen alten Mordfall aufzuklären, dessen einziges Indiz damals die Gasbeleuchtung war.…

More Drama

Radio drama, old-time radio and historic broadcasts from the Internet Archive (its Old Time Radio collection with the Old Time Radio Researchers' sets, WWII Era Audio Recordings, the Pacifica Radio Archives, the Radio Haiti Archive, German radio plays and listeners' uploads), Wikimedia Commons (with the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision's broadcasts) and the Library of Congress. Every episode plays from its archive, which this site does not copy; rights are as each archive states them. Nothing here is called public domain on this site's say-so. In the United States, sound recordings first fixed before 15 February 1972 have federal protection under the Music Modernization Act of 2018, for most until 2067 at the latest, so most American radio of the 1930s to the 1950s is not in the public domain there. Each set shows the licence, mark or statement its archive gives, and says whose it is. An episode whose only basis is its uploader's public-domain mark is not played, as that law protects it; one under its rights holder's licence plays everywhere. Horror, crime, war and westerns are for teenage and adult profiles, racist caricature for adults only, and children’s profiles hear what was made for children. More about these archives.
