Mr. MountainTroll,
Regarding your latest missive, my ire would be raised if such accusations came from a man of standing, as opposed to a broken down, slanderous homeguard. Your efforts to deflect responsibility onto your brethren in other camps is simply specious. I was dismayed to learn that Sterling Price had defected to the opposing forces, assuming a lying scoundrel such as yourself would ever reveal the truth. If this be fact, he will face court martial, and hanging, should the forces of good ever acquire his person. As for your threats regarding my troops, they revel in the chase of fleeing homeguard. This activity keeps them in condition such that no other physical training is required. Such merriment is a welcome distraction for hard fought and hungry men. In parting, I hope General Price is more faithful to your cause than the previous oath he took. I look forward to a fleeting glimpse of your fleeing back at our next engagement.
Until Then, I Remain
Your Obedient Servant,
Capt. Ferguson
