Dear Sir/Madam,

The Buccaneer, Mr Anderson, was sighted near the Stokes station. His response was to utter a firm expression of his displeasure and to flee in the direction of LD-14 and, I assume, the Edinburgh jumphole. He refused any attempt to take him into custody without force. His vector changed to a portion of empty space beyond the solarsystem and after some time he was persuaded that deep space was not a wise destination. At this point he turned his ship about, and attempted to flee past me.

At this point Mr McNulty arrived to assist in the Buccaneer's capture.

I was able to take down his cruise engines after no less than twenty-six cruise disruptors were fired and proceeded to the vicinity of the Buccaneer's craft. He turned on us and fought with wild abandon for some time until, with the splendid work of Mr McNulty, we managed to scrape his hull a few times. At this point the Buccaneer's mind turned to flight once again, and I was forced to disrupt his engines several more times before I managed to find a clear shot with my Supernova.

I regret to say we did not discover a body in the wreckage, though due to sensor blindspots the nearby asteroids threw up, it is possible his escape pod evaded our scans. I apologise for this lapse.

Yours sincerely,

Marilynne.Robinson
