The letter sent to Kemp by Griffin was full of bitterness, malice and threats. The Invisible Man Had accused Kemp of betrayal and wondered what he would gain by this treachery. He admitted being outwitted by this treachery. He admitted being outwitted by his cleverness. However, he boasted that in spite of Kemp’s best efforts, Griffin had managed to eat to his fill as well as sleep peacefully through the night. He now threatened to commence a new chapter in his life. He sounded very presumptuous and confident as he declared that he was going to start the reign of terror and port Burdock was no longer under the Queen but under him. A new epoch was going to commence and it was going to day one of year one of terror. This bay was going to be marked by him with Kemp’s murder. He challenged Kemp to do all he could to evade this death. Through the latter, he also warned the people around not to help Kemp, for they too would invite their death. The tone of the latter was very foul and nasty. The latter clearly hinted that Griffin’s ego was badly hurt and he was not going to accept that betrayal of Kemp simply lying low. The intention to hit back with equal force indicated that Griffin was determined to avenge his humiliation and would not forgive Kemp for breach of trust.
