John Silver (“Long John” to the barmaid) is keen to set sail and finish the transaction.

Good Evening to ye Barrister Eke,

I will be trimming me sails and setting a steady course, awaiting your orders as to what waters we should be sailing in to, if ye get me drift.

I being strongly relying on you to be steering us through the current difficulties. I be strongly in favour of ye pursuing anything that settles this issue with all due haste.

Yours sincerely,

John Silver.
