Dear My Love,
Life in the British camp is harsh.we are low on food. We do not get as much pay as we do back in London.It seems like nobody likes the British in the colonies only a few colonies do. In the battle of concord and Lexington, I was one of the few soldiers that survived.The food here is not as good back home. All we get is fresh meat from cows we kill, bad soup, and rotten bread. During my first few days at the colonies I was at Boston working at a barber shop and I saw someone that looks just like you! I will be coming back in one month because I was shot in the arm.But I also bring you bad news. Your brother, John, was shot in the back during the retreat in the battle of concord and Lexington and his son is being held captive by the Patriots. After the battle of Concord and Lexington, I was promoted to general. When I get home I wish to continue our wedding plans and have time to be with Lydia. After this war is over I have plans for us to move to Georgia. It is a very nice place because I have been there.There are lots of room for her to play.And make friends. We could get nice jobs there like you could work at the barber shop and I could work at the shipyards.
love your to be husband
