January 29, 2013


I was still surprised and shocked about what I witnessed with Ned and the house getting burned down. I went down to Dr. Hobart, and Dr. Hobart was giving me a huge mug of rum. As I was there we talked about Dan Star. About how someone killed him, Mother said the war was making the men go crazy. It’s hard to believe how many people are getting killed. My father has now passed away now. He died from being sick on the ship they threw him on. If one person got sick it would spread fast. The conditions on the bout were horrible on the bout. It was dirty and all you got for food was slop. Mother said that he was buried somewhere in Long Island and that we would go down there and get him a grave stone.
