To Captain Cladwell commander,
Some fine men went down that day, there's no doubt. What was it, three to one? Ye must be proud o that. You knew we couldn.t be licked otherwise. You never could leave us alone. No more than a handful o folks in homespun 'n buckskin hopin ta grow enough corn to make it through the winter.
Well, if I get my hands on ya, we'll be paradin' ye about same as we did the Hair-buyer. And tell yer friend Girty we're a thinkin up something special fer him too.
Yrs truly,
Georgie
