: To my dear Mohicanlanders:
: It is with great sadness that, in comparing calendars, I realize I will not be able to attend the Great Gathering this year. That same weekend, the King's Rangers are required to be at Crown Point to defend the King's interests against those Yankee Rebel Scum who have come to reject his right of authority over them. Moreover, a certain Major Mike Fitzgerald has been named Commander of the Provincial Brigade for the British Brigade (meaning he will be leading all of the British provincial forces, including the King's Rangers) at Crown Point and again at Saratoga in the Autumn. As much as I desire to accompany you all again to that place of great beauty in North Carolina of which I have many fond memories, I must, instead, support my Major in fighting for the Crown.
: I hope you will remember us when you are there.
: I remain,
: YMOS,

Damn! Damn! So sorry to hear this but I kinda/sorta had an idea the calendar would not agree with your plans. We will most definitely miss you and the Major and we will think back of a time of good cheer and laughter and realize how much we will wish you were with us. Keep us informed of your duties.
Theresa
