My Dear Lord Benedict,
I have, against considerable odds, managed to find a buyer for your rendering of Lake Geneva. There is only one caveat. She wants to meet you at my gallery to discuss the possibility of a commission. Something involving a house, I believe.
I have made no promise beyond you being at the gallery, at five o’clock sharp. Tomorrow. I feel that after my efforts on your behalf at the Academy exhibition, you will not disappoint.
Yrs.
