He had come a long way since them. He took up his quill and in the flickering lamplight began to write his last will and testament.
He put it away carefully in his campaign chest. He then composed a letter to his wife, his dearest Marian, the former Baroness Von Imhoff whom he had purposely left in Chinsura under the care of his good friend, the Hon. Johannes Mathias Ross, the head of the Dutch factory there. The letter was to be handed to her the next morning in the event of his death.
