Eleanor and Valentine – Chapter 12
1887

“Dammit, Valentine, how much longer before we can drink this whiskey?”
Valentine took an unlabelled bottle out of a cabinet and poured him a sip. Napoleon threw it back and let out a whoop. “Did you bring that from Kentucky?”
“I did. Ours won’t taste exactly like it, but that’s the idea. It takes four years. One more to go.”
“What will we call it?”
Valentine corked the bottle and put it back in the cabinet.
“I know what we’re gonna call it.”
