Macmillan,

You're bold to speak to of honor after what you've done. Did the duel mean nothing to you, or did the bullet wreck you so terribly that you were so quickly about to forget the agreement we made? You agreed to cease your pursuit of my cousin in the event you lost, and yet she comes to me with news that you've asked her to be your wife.

I hope your love for her makes the misery worth it.

V. Macnair
