noon
Before I left I had trouble with Peters . This hurried me and I have not time to write more now . I know you got back from the island -- boys of your kin do not wait long to find their sisters . By to-morrow noon , if all goes well with me on the journey , I shall be able to write that to poor little Laurel which will release her from her bondage . I will send the letter care of you . Thank the boys for use of their canoe . BRENTANO . ''
