Kangaroo_cury is right I think. Casey finds the letter written by the dear hunter, this is why it's about a message in a bottle because they never actually get to who their intended. Casey reads the first message and reads about this man who gives up a woman.
"She must have been so glad for him to throw it out." IT being the message that the dear hunter apparently threw out. Casey realizes that since he found this message in a bottle, the girl this letter was written to never got it.
Further down the beach Casey finds another bottle with a letter in it. It also has tears streaking the page and he wonders if its from the dear hunter as he wrote it, or from Ms. Leading as she read it.
I'm not sure what happened to Ms. Leading, but Casey sings about how she is probably better off now. He's taking a "everything happens for a reason" approach, or just can't bear to hear about this little tragic story he happened upon.
