My leg has begun to heal quite nicely, and though I now walk with a limp, I do not notice the discomfort. Now that this business of the Anaconda Plan is over, I wonder what will come next. I am on my own again now, waiting to find new opportunities and friends in my surroundings. After some contemplation, I have decided a return to Washington might be rash. It is best for me to remain in Richmond for the time being. But I am looking forward to the day when I can return and have my revenge.
