Yet Another 'Found' Letter


Dear You,
I was walking by one day thinking about how to explain all the things that have been happening recently. I then met this strange man named John. I stop to talk and knowing my reporter instincts, I end up interviewing him. He probably thought I was insane. Anyways, I spotted an unopened letter and my curious side had got the best of me.
I then ran off with the letter (I meant to borrow it and return it after ... maybe). While running I dropped the interview but I remember a bit of it. I'll post in the next post. Anyways, I know many of you guys reading are very curious and are wondering what is in the letter. So, being the awesome person I am, I will post this letter on my blog for you all to see (plus I do not have to re-explain all of the current events!). BEHOLD! THE LETTER YOU HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!!!

Dear Richard,
How is it in Scotland? I miss you ever since i immigrated to Upper Canada. Anyways, I wish I could but I can’t return right now. Some very important things for Canada are happening right now and I feel I cannot abandon this place.
It's war with the Americans right now. I am a chaplain for the troops here too. You know how York was invaded? Well, the American soldiers started looting and burning the whole place up just because the British had retreated. I alone have to step forward to meet the American General Dearborn about this important issue at hand. As an Anglican priest, I cannot watch this place be destroyed by those ruthless Americans. I am going to speak to the General tomorrow. Wish me luck. I am going to try to talk Mr. Dearborn to surrender York. It would be much better for the citizens. 
Hopefully, this war will end soon. I had this great idea, Richard! After the war, can u help me with the Loyal and Patriotic Society? I want it to help raise funds to help disabled militia and their families. Please come.
Know that I miss you dearly. I wish you happiness in Scotland.
Yours Truly,
John Strachan

Interesting??? Well thats all that happened so far here. I'll update you all soon!

Love
Catherine
