I haven’t seen you in awhile and I am not sure if I will ever again. I want you to know my loving sister that I am joining the rebellion against Britain. King George III and the Parliament have been wrongfully abusing their power; us colonists are tired of their exploitation and resent being treated as lower beings. Alice I hope you will understand what I am trying to say in this letter; that I am fighting for justice, do not think that I am throwing my life away, I hope that you will respect what I am fighting for. The colonist and I are above tyranny, we hope to make a more fair and just government and live in a country that I am proud to say I helped make.
Alice, what I am fighting for is justice, these inequitable acts
