"fine looking natives"? No offense to our Native friends, but methinks cousin Malcolm's been in the wood a wee bit too long!

I'll be there. I happen to think we do look rather fine.
*notes who to shoot first*
Insults not taken lightly 
actually, do to my hand injury, i won't be firing, just screaming and making lots of noise.
I was up there this weekend scouting places, and starting to construct my lodge. I've seen bits of the roster, and it looks as though we'll have a fine turnout.

Hi Nephew,
I hope your hand is feeling better soon, and there is no dishonor in how you hurt it (I am actually quite proud of your cavalier prowess). Some of my most 'daring' youthful indescretions make for my fondest memories...
As to your lodge, I understand that it is more like a council house in size. I can't wait to see it, and smoke with your father in it. Till this weekend, Nephew...
Your Most Humble Servant,
Uncle Duncan

I look forward to seeing you this weekend uncle, You are welcomed at any time to visit our lodge, or sit by our fire.
As for my "cavalier prowess". I have invited the young lady i was visiting during my " 'daring' youthful indescretion" to come see the event. If she does, i'll bring her down by your camp. To meet you and your plaid companions.

Ousaw,
I would think you'd select a smaller (and more challenging) target.
"actually, do to my hand injury, i won't be firing, just screaming and making lots of noise."
Maybe you'll at least scare your white brother with all that screaming and yelling |

Nephew,
I look forward to meeting the young lady who captured your heart. Your Aunt Eliza and Cousin Clara shall join us on Sunday, we shall celebrate our family reunion.
Your Most Humble Uncle,
Duncan
