Bitter poverty tears the Soubirous family apart.

Desperate to serve her quarreling parents, Bernadette goes to gather firewood.

But at the dark, forbidden grotto of Massabier, she encounters an unexpected and disturbing vision.

Could it be from heaven?

Or is it from some other place?

The shadow, mysterious character who aids those in distress and helps the forces of law and order, is in reality Lamont Cranston, wealthy young man of our town.

Cranston's friend and companion, the lovely Margot Lane...

is the only person who knows to whom the unseen voice belongs.

The only one who knows the true identity of that master of other people's minds, the shadow.

Today's story, Appointment with Death.

Got any dope at all, Shadow?

First, let me ask you, do you have any theory?

Petri Wine brings you... Basil Rathbone and the New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes.

The Petri family, a family that took time to bring you good wine, invites you to listen to Dr. Watson tell us another exciting adventure he shared with his old friend, that master detective, Sherlock Holmes.

And say, if you'd like to try a new adventure in good eating...

Well, you just make sure that your dinner tomorrow night includes a bottle of Petri California Burgundy.

Petri Burgundy is the ideal wine with any kind of meat or meat dish.

That Petri Burgundy is a hearty red wine, just as rich in flavor as it is in color.

It's the perfect companion to a thick, juicy steak or a piping hot pot roast or a good hamburger.

You know, that Petri Burgundy has a happy faculty of turning a simple meal like, say, a hamburger sandwich into a feast.
