Mr. Arthur Pettigrew,
A token of appreciation for your assistance with that terribly unpleasant business Friday morning. Forgive the delay; I would have sent this over the weekend but it's impossible to buy high quality alcohol on Easter, as it turns out, and I was afraid choosing something inferior would have sent the wrong message. The issue itself has never much interested me, but as you know I was very invested in no one dying, so I am genuinely grateful.
E. Selwyn
