APUSH Jamestown Letter 9/29/12 Dear beloved brother, I have arrived here safely at the Jamestown colony of our great homeland England and I have been here for three months now. The journey over was anything but pleasant, the conditions on the way over where god awful. As we departed for the colony our ships were stalled in the channel between England and France for nearly a month. Had the winds not turned in our favor I believe we would have returned soon as the passengers were becoming rowdy as we could still see home but had none of the benefits of being at home. As the winds shifted we proceeded on down into the warmth of the tropics.
We have been on a raid into Ms. but I have not time to give you the particulars of our trip. I will write in a few days if I can get a chance to send it and write you a long one. I just came off of picket and found the boys all writing to send by a man that has been discharged who is going to start home this morning.

And they are starving.” (pg.63) The colonies were forced to cannibalism. “One provident man chops up his wife and salts down the pieces. Others dig up graves to eat the corpses.” (pg.63) there was absolutely no means of food for the colonies this winter.

A posse of men hung three men for killing a stage coach. One of the boys was crying and trying to tell the posse that he was innocent, but they did not believe him. Then art reminded me that since we were outsiders we didn’t need to get involved. How did u feel when you found out that Rose had left town? In a way I was upset that she had left and I wouldn’t get to see her.

We have drug wars, riots, and personal wars; and these go on every day of our lives, most going un-known except by the people it directly affects. I am terrified to have to live in the trenches where you would never have a bath and there are rats and other animals running around the place, and having the thought in your head there you probably going to die and never seeing your children, family, friends, love ones ever again, and the thought that you have to kill other people just to
Many of their men were starving and could no longer withstand the cold winter weather. A lot of their men had died because they were too weak for the long journey ahead of them. In the General History of Virginia, John Smith recalls that “Scarce ten among them could neither go or well stand such extreme weakness and sickness oppressed them“. Once John and William arrived to their destinations, they searched all over land to set up camp and look for clues of previous life. They and their men slowly recovered back to health by living off of corn and beans, but the December weather
