July 4, 1776 Dear Thomas , Remember you are 25 years old boy, so if you can come home, then you can't own a farm. Also think about the animals. We miss you so much! The Boston Tea Party is getting out of hand! People are dressing like Mohawk indians and they are dumping tea into the sea. Today is when the people are going to sign the Declaration of Independence:

By the time you read this we may be still in The Boston Massacre. Our uncle that got shot in the arm, and yes, he is still alive, but he is very stiff. Also he is a good cook. We are missing five cows. The pigs that we lost all but one, I HATE THE REDCOATS!!! All they do is steal from us. We got in trouble for not letting the british have some rum. Just please stay alive. I want you
to come home. Love, Trisha
