Letter home

Dear Mother,

How is everyone back home? I've been better. This war is so stupid. They make us sleep out side in the cold, the snow, and the rain. The houses we stay in are bad they smell bad the other men are pissing up stream from where we alol get are water, its really the worse camp i've been in. why would some one just want to run for months on end, wasition runs and runs and acts like he dont want to fight, but if we dont start fighting i'm going to a diffent camp. I am sick and tired of running all the time thats all we do is run, sleep drink water with piss in it.i hope little alex is okay. tell him daddy will be home soon and i miss him. i'll write him next time.

Tell Susey that her big brother is coming home,and hows dad? i hope hes well and Jan is she well too? if so tell her that i miss her with all of my heart and i love her. I cant wait until i can come home to see all of you.

Love always and forever Jim-Boy

Commom Sense essay

The king of england was a very mean guy. He wanted every one that was in the states to still answer him, the colonies fought for there rights. Some acts the king put in play is Grenville,townsend, coercive, and the proclamation acts, made it so they could only use english money and they couldnt have town meeting because the king was tring to take there rights away
