John Silver delivers a promissory note.

Good Day to ye, Barrister Eke,

I am attaching a promissory note for ye. I am hoping that it be what ye be wanting as I am not well versed in the runnings of such matters.

I be thanking ye for your wishes for Mrs Silver and she, poor woman, thanks ye also.

My Age, Barrister Eke? I be 49 years of age.

My condolences about the unfortunate loss of your relative. I must be telling ye that I used to lose me Dad most regular like. Until I bought the pub, ye understand!

I will be hearing from ye next week,

Yours most sincerely,

John Silver.
