"We'll see," said Sutton, sourly.

"But I'm not all," said Herkimer. "There are other things. There's an asteroid, a hunting asteroid stocked with the finest game, and a spaceship. A small one, it's true, but very serviceable. There is several thousand dollars and an estate out on the west coast and some wildcat planetary development stock and a number of other small things, too numerous to mention."

Herkimer dipped into his pocket and brought out a notebook.

"I have them written out if you would care to listen."

"Not now," said Sutton. "I have work to do."

Herkimer brightened.

"Something I could do, no doubt. Something I could help with."

"Nothing," said Sutton. "I am going to see Adams."

"I could carry your case. That one over there."

"I'm not taking the case."
