Letter to Christopher Larabee,
221B Baker Street,
LondonDear Sir,
I present to you this copy of a legend that is well known around the villages on Dartmoor. I will visit you again, since you were not in when I called today. Your housekeeper allowed me to write and leave this note. You will have read of the death of Sir Henry Standish of Standish Hall on Dartmoor. I have some reason to believe his death was not entirely natural.
Your Servant,
Dr J Sanchez. M.R.C.P.

Summary
Roy Haly was a happy man. Very rarely seen without a smile, this particular Tuesday the man’s simper was particularly large. He’d ridden into Four Corners, making a pit stop on the way to "someplace else." The next scheme, the next deal, the next opportunity to get enough money to pay off his debt to Darry Carter, buying his freedom from the man forever. That was all he was looking for. Once he discovered how to get the obsessive man off his back he could travel freely around the country without dodging his one time partner at every turn. He was smiling bigger because he’d found it sooner than he thought. Vin Tanner.
It had been nearly a year since he’d seen the boy but it was still him. Darry would be awfully happy to get him back. He’d pay a mighty big price too. He’d never ask another favor from Happy Roy Haly.
