Philadelphia, June 18
I write this letter out of admiration and hope. For I, who have never purposely hurt another human being, am willing to be hurt to defend a dream.
Sir, I respect you and all that you and the great men of this land have been doing for the sake of us all. For the sake of families and faces that you have never met.
I am no soldier, but I am a believer. I am no fighter, but I am a survivor. I ask you, humbly, to allow me to be a part of history and fight for what is right. I beg you to give me a chance to proudly assure that the good men of this land and our children keep what is their, to keep what they deserve.
Respectfully.
"You ought not to think an hour upon the matter, but to spring to action at once."
The purpose of the words "hour" and "spring" is:
A) Most of the sentences contain comma splices.
A comma splice is the use of a comma to join two independent clauses. The comma is followed by a conjunction.
Two independent clauses:
1) You ought not to think an hour upon the matter.
2) You ought to spring to action at once.
conjunction used is BUT.
