My Dear Mistress Ros,
I am most gratified by your estimation of my prowess as an up-and-coming Ranger but your flattering me with a promotion will not, I am sorry to say, earn you the receipt for Ping, and I remain a Private. My shoes, musket, regimental, leggins ... always in need of cleaning and repair, but that too will not earn you the desired receipt, for rewarding you is beyond my power.
I do suggest you post the request for the Major, as he, you know, is the keeper of the keys.
YHOS,
Pvt. Chauncey Goodrich
Rogers' Rangers, Rogers' Own Coy.
Rogers' Island, Fort Edward
: Welcome back from the battle, Sgt Chauncey. Do you need your boots polished? Your gun cleaned? I work for a very reasonable price - just a little recipe will do it.
