I have this bad feeling that this is the way it always works.  The 'JERK' had
to wear (and carry) the gloves before wielding (and carrying) the 'c'.  When he
died, hack unloaded his possessions in a..zA..Z order, putting the 'c' higher
in the heap than the gloves.  You will always encounter the 'c' before the
gloves.

Leave a time-bomb behind for posterity.. carry a cockatrice !
