[Western] Missive to HE Gavin

[HE Chiang]

  My Dear Friend and Brother Centurion,
I told my surveyors to go around your home, good help is so hard to find in 
these times. I am sorry to hear of your wrecked home. I should gather a few 
folks to come help you rebuild, while we rebuild my small fence as well.
  We shall deal with the Scottish Redneck, I do so like that term.
  Looking forward to visiting with you soon.
  Your humble servant,
  HE Chiang
  Baron of Bonwicke
  and Centurion
