I also go for the 2nd scenario Written by Connie (5/6/2010 11:13 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, I did notice it, and over time worked out four possibilities, penned by Kathleen Glancy

As Stephanie pointed out, Wickham says it was immediately before his father's death, and I think he does this deliberately to gain sympathy. Deathbed promises have an added solemnity and sacredness--witness John Dashwood's promise to his father in S&S.
