Revelation: a pause in one’s life;
waiting with fear and anxiety.
My dearest Catherine,
Tomorrow the British will probably attack us again. Our luck has been good so far; I just hope it lasts. And even though I’m scared, I’m proud to be a part of this effort and doing my share to protect our beautiful New Orleans.
I deeply miss you and am so sorry I cannot be with you during this terrible time with Suzanne. But you need to keep your spirits up, no matter the outcome. I have always admired your pluck and am grateful to have shared the past two years with you. Truly, you have made them the best years of my life.
I hope to see you soon, but if that doesn’t happen, I just need you to know how much I love you.
Always,
Miguel
