"We noted your suggestions on that point, and on all the others," Culver answered with gracious condescension. "That's why I brought cash in small denominations and didn't go near anybody with it." Larkin rose. "I've got to get to work. See you here to-morrow night at seven, Mr. Culver seven sharp. I guess it'll be Judge Graney on the third ballot.
