of Edgar Cotten, no doubt.
"You mean to tell me that I have to go and hunt for a family beater.
"Well he was a family beater, but the last time he went playing games with a stick he hit his wife a little too nard, and now she's dead."
"Oh a murder rap, that's different," apologized Manley.
"Yea that's different," agreed Rodney.
"Well when do we start," asked Manley. "This is the closest to a big job we've ever had. "Manley had the habit of saying we all the time, for where he was Rodney was.
"Right away Manley my boy. Here is a picture and discription of him."

"What ever gave you that idea," moaned Manley. "The chief said he was going there didn't he?"
"Well no, he didn't exactly, " pouted Rodney. "He only said perhaps he was going there because of the amount of stuff he was taking.
"Ah don' worry kid, the chief is usually right away."
So until the end of their journey the two rested comfortably, but never the less they were very much relieved to hear that two men, one of which answered Cotten's discription was supposidly heading on a prospecting trip to Titan.
But now we catch up on Ed Cotten and George Hempstead stroling across the fertile fields of Titan.
