Business is very slack until the firm gets a peculiar sort of case. At the house of old Bixby, a millionaire, mysterious messages have been received from a criminal signing himself "Scarface." These predict the disappearance of a valuable diamond necklace, worn by Betty, his daughter. The note names midnight as the hour the necklace will vanish. Bixby communicates with the detective agency, and Lloyd and the manager come out to the house to protect the valuables and capture the crook. They station the occupants of the house at points of vantage and wait for something to happen. They are warned that whoever the flashlight falls on shall die. They do not have to wait long, for doors begin to open and close, and mysterious noises are heard. Lloyd is scared stiff but tries to catch the crook, although the fateful light falls on him. Scarface adopts the disguise of a huge gorilla and terrorizes the entire household. He glides from room to room, through walls, trapdoors and secret exits, completely mystifying the watching detectives or frightening them out of their wits. The chase leads to the cellar. Lloyd is left there alone while boxes and barrels move around the gloomy place. Finally he thinks he has captured the crook-but it is only his partner. The gas light in the cellar is blown out and the gas escapes. Lloyd asks for a match to light the gas and when the match is struck the house blows up, the explosion landing the two detectives and the crook on the branch of a tree. Lloyd slips the handcuffs on the crook just before the bough breaks. Written by Press Sheet from Library of Congress See less
