Dear Sarah,
It has been tough here. Grandma has gotten sick, and she hasn't been out of bed for a while. The doctor comes to visit once and a while, but there's nothing he can do. Ma and Pa are very concerned, and try to stay with Gran as much as possible. On top of that, due to the Royal Proclamation the Ohio valley is closed to expansion, and with Quebec being inhabited by French people, people in Virginia and North Carolina are becoming very unhappy with the British laws and rules. Also, colonists in Quebec where unhappy, and thought that Governor James Murray preferred the French and was unfair by giving them rights. Governor Murray was sent back to England and now a new governor came. His name is Sir Guy Carleton. I really hope this Carleton guy helps things get sorted out. It is very lonely without you. I wish that you could be here with me.
Your brother,
George Davis Lanott
i don't think James Murray is that bad...i mean...he's just trying to be nice to everyone. and i wouldn't get my hopes up about Sir Guy Carleton because i heard he's the same as Murray.
