Then, there were the cases
between the windows on the west wall, containing the ammunition
collection--examples of every type of fixed-pistol ammunition--and the
collection of bullet-molds and powder flasks and wheel lock spanners and
assorted cleaning and loading accessories. All that stuff would have to
be listed, too.
"I beg your pardon, sir," Walters broke in, behind him. "Mrs. Fleming
said that you wanted me."
"Oh, yes." Rand turned. "Is this the whole thing? What's on the walls,
here?"
"Yes, sir. There is also a wall-case containing a number of modern
pistols and revolvers, and several rifles and shotguns, in the room
formerly occupied by Mr. Fleming, but they are not part of the
collection, and they are now the personal property of Mrs. Fleming.
I understand that she intends selling at least some of them, on her
own account. Then, there is a quantity of ammunition and
ammunition-components in that closet under the workbench--cartridges,
primed cartridge-shells, black and smokeless powder, cartridge-primers,
percussion caps--but they are not part of the collection, either. I
believe Mrs. Fleming wants to sell most of that, too."
"Well, I'll talk to her about it. I may want to buy some of the
ammunition for myself," Rand said.
