Miz Crone,
Hit's me, Jeroboam. Now don't go gettin' testy and puttin' me in jail agin. T'aint my fault. I had too many o' them rum libations at Bumppo's an' woke up with a sore head and sour stomach on the good ship "Mahala." I bin right across the North Atlantic Ocean, south to the Indees, then right round to Montevideo. We hightailed it back 'coz o' that big blow in the Atlantic. An' I hope the Good Lord an' His Angels protect all the good citizens of Mohicanland who are in the path o' that evil storm.
Miz Crone, I'm right sorry to hear about yer house. Here I come with all these yerbs an' spices an' fine lace fer ye, an' I hear yer house is settin' sail fer parts unknown. I aim to help ye build a new place, an' Miz Crone (hehe), how's about if I wattle yer daub, so to speak...
Yer faithful servant,
Able (hehe) Seaman Jeroboam Jones
