In the letter, Thornton accepts Weeks' challenge and discusses places for their meeting, but notes it must be put on hold for the time being. He goes on to state he will never again ask for a letter of recommendation for another person until he feels has again regained the right to do so, as he feels Weeks was not pleased with his previous request.
