Colonial Letters: Letters 3 & 4 (unedited or revised)
Family Letter 3
My Dearest Niece Ruth,
I have very much enjoyed getting letters from thee. Now it is my turn. I am at most health I thank God. I am glad to hear that you and your family are as well. I think you will be glad to hear that I have gotten proposed to by Edward Harris one month ago and I accepted, our wedding will be in one month. My dowry will be the money to go to the Jamestown Colony In the new World.
Edward works for the shipping industry. I might stop by Plymouth a few times while I am with my beloved Edward on his travels.
Everything here in England is so busy. I wish I was on the calm cozy coast of the New World with you and your family. King Charles the first is not a very good king here in England. So you say your father is making a group of men who do not want to be subjects of the king. I think that's a very impressive theory, Edward would like to be part of that group. You should not be afraid of your parents calling each other different names maybe the tithingman said they should.
It has been my pleasure talking with you Ruth, Now please let me ask you a few questions. How is Plymouth Colony and who is the governor? How many children do you have in your family now? What does your father do for work? Thank you Ruth, I hope you are at health still. I love you dearly
Aunt Sarah
Family Letter 4
Dear Ruth,
I am now Mrs. Sarah Harris. I got married to Edward two days before today. It is hard being a wife, there is so many chores. I remember when I was your age learning to do all the work that is so important now. I hope you are working hard because trust me, you will need to do all this work often when you get older.
Edward and I are expecting to have a baby before we go to Jamestown. Edward has already started whittling the cradle. You need to help me choose a name, do you think you can do that Ruth? If it is a girl I was thinking Rachel, I always treasured that name. If it is a boy, Daniel I like that name. If you have any other ideas please let me know in your next letter.
I am so sorry to hear about Timothy, your family must have been in terrible misfortune. I wish I could have seen Timothy before the angels carried him away, but remember God has sent him to watch over us and to make us behave well.
I am at health and again have been wishing to ask you some questions. Have you any friends in the New World? How many settlers have become part of your colony? Are you wishing to come back to England? Thank you again Ruth hope you are at health and safe I pray to God. I love you dearly
Aunt Sarah Harris

B: Read, copy & paste quote at top of page here: "The stench of the hold…was so intolerably loathsome that it was dangerous to remain there for any time…but now that the whole ship's cargo were confined together, it became absolutely pestilential. The closeness of the place and the heat of the climate, added to the number in the ship which was so crowded that each had scarcely room to turn himself, almost suffocated us"

- Summarize in well-written, 10 sentence paragraph what you learned about the Slave Trade & the Middle Passage by watching the videos in steps 5-7.
The slave trade and the middle passage were a bad part of our history. The slaves going across the ocean were so misfortunate and there were so many that came. There were 10 million slaves that came over to America. This is sort of how the civil war started. Most of the slaves in the 21st century have this bad past which makes me feel so sad. They were treated so horribly. The worst part is that no Europeans felt bad for the slaves, If I was a European, I would.
