July 30, 1812

Dear Sarah,

On the 12th, William Hull invaded Canada.  He is stationed in Sandwich and is telling people not to oppose his invasion.  The nerve!  He has come to our country to kill people, yet he tells them to just sit back while he runs around Canada, invading our land.  Isaac Brock is ready to defend our colony.  He has made a response to Hull's proclamation.  From what I heard, some people are starting to desert the British forces and join the Americans.  This makes the general mood negative around here.

Your brother,

George Davis Lanott
