Dear Aunt Sarah,
Jacob is all better! We are all doing very well and I am happy. Karen said that we will come and visit you in Jamestown fairly soon. This past week has been wonderful. Edward has come back from the academie and thanked me for the clothes I sent him. Myles has also come back from Dartmouth to meet Karen. As I sit by the fire righting my letter, I think of you and your dark brown eyes, beautiful blonde hair, and your lovely clothes from England. As I smile I think of the way you smile, with pure white teeth. I miss you Aunt Sarah.
Karen is teaching me more ways to make clothing. She also says I am a lovely cook. I thank her for that. It is now nice knowing that mother and Timothy are watching over us, I feel safer in some ways. I am joyous to see Pricilla. I am glad she may be over her sicknesses. I as well would miss my companions, if I left them. As I miss my mother and religion though I never came from England.
There have been discussions of Indian wars around my village. I am frightened now, however you said the Indians were pleasant in Quebec, Father and Karen say the same thing. This may be one of my longer letters as is my final for Father says I must help more around the house rather than fiddle with my quill. I miss you Aunt Sarah and wish I could right to you more, however must obey my Father.
-With Love Forever,
Ruth Alden

Dear Ruth,
I agree that you must obey your father, however I will miss your letters. This may be final as well. I am very glad that you will be coming to visit in the week after next, You may be on your way now and I may have to send this letter after you leave. Pricilla, Rachel, Edward and I are doing wonderful as your family, I am happy. I wish that you will help out with cooking as I agree with Karen, you are a wonderful cook. I must ask and will find out shortly, are Myles and Edward coming to visit me as I hope they do because I did not see them on my visit.
Things are getting better here in Jamestown and the Governor realized that Edward was no harm and now worships him as one of his companions. I do not believe you are now twelve years old and have been telling me your life for two whole years as I have been doing the same. I as well sit by the fire and think of you as I write my letters, the way your independence shines like the bright stars, the way you know that your mother is watching over you and is still with you in your heart, and all the things you said about me are as well true of you. I wish that Pricilla and Rachel grow up to be like you.
This may be one of my longer letters as well, however I love writing and hope we can communicate some other way, because I love you Ruth Alden, as much as the sun on a rainy day, as much as the birds start to chirp in the spring, as much as the quiet calm house is when you are writing by the fire. I cannot wait to see you, As my final words are…
- With Love,
Sarah

A. What did you learn from the video?
A: In Virginia, a 4th grade class did a clay animation movie with play doe dolls of the characters from the story of the Lost Colony. Sir Raleigh asked Queen Elizabeth the first if he could go to the New World searching for gold and riches. He stopped at the island where the Croaton Natives lived. They met two nice Natives named "Weetamo and Mateo" who led them to Roanoke Island. They looked for gold and riches. Weetamo and Mateo helped Sir Raleigh and the explorers with food. They went back to England showing Queen Elizabeth what they found; they brought Weetamo and Mateo as well. On the second voyage they planned to start a colony. John White and artist came with Sir Raleigh and the explorers on this voyage to record what they saw. They got to Roanoke Island and saw plants and animals they have never seen before. John White recorded for the queen. One of the explorers pointed out that his gold cup from England was missing. Thinking it was the Natives they went to the Croaton Island and attacked. They didn't think it was the Croaton Natives that stole it but accidently killed Mateo's family without knowing. John White's daughter Eleanor Dare had a baby named Virginia who was the first baby born in the New World. But Mateo and Weetamo stayed with their tribe so the English were starving. John White who was now the Governor of Roanoke went back to England to get more food and supplies. He went back but could not get a ship to go back to Roanoke for three years. When he finally came back, the colony was destroyed. He did not find any of the colonists; all he found was the word, "Croatons" written on the fence. I think that the Croaton Natives killed the colony and destroyed their village for revenge.
