Answer:

Dear Family,

The days here in Valley Forge are getting harder by the minute, we are running out of food, the weather is painfully freezing, we have an extremely limited supply of medicine. I don't know how much longer we are going to be able to make it. The only person keeping me sane right now is General Washington, he is so very loyal to his men. During the day most of us are huddling together in our very enclosed tents and/or log cabins. We usually try to eat about three meals a day but with the cold weather and other soldiers not being rational, we sometimes go days without eating. I can feel my stomach slowly eating away at itself. When we do eat, its usually pork, bread, cornmeal and if we're lucky, rum and/or whiskey. The cold weather and lack of positivity makes me feel depressed but the stress of war drowns it out. I do truly miss home, I would give anything to be back with my family. Hopefully I will see you all soon.

December 28th, 1777  

Dear Mom and Dad, I know it’s been a long time since I've written a letter to you. The reason is really easy to explain, the harsh conditions of the weather, the little amount of food, and disease. All of those made it hard to write letters with my hand trembling because of the cold and freezing temperatures and me getting all those kinds or sickness. I’m fine now, I feel brave. Many people here look like they regret it. Coming here. I feel brave. General Washinton, the leader, was very brave. He’d make sure we camped near somewhere that’s safe. In fact, Washington camped in a place we call Valley Forge. It is surrounded with many defenses in case the Britan come to invade. Mom, Dad, I’m safe and sound. I’m healthy and happy. America will soon be free. Have hope

Sincerely Phillip James Smith (Totally made-up name you can change it though)

What did Lincoln see as the job of all Americans?
masya89 [10]

As president of the us , Lincoln used his First and Second Inaugural Addresses to explore the meaning of the American union within the face of a divided country. Upon assuming the presidency for the first time, he spoke at length about the nature of union, why secession was antithetical to self-government, and how the federal constitution imposed a duty upon him to defend the union of the states from rebellious citizens. When he was reelected four years later, and because the war drew to an in depth , Lincoln transcended both Northern triumphalism and Southern defiance by offering a providential reading of the war and emancipation in hopes of reuniting the country.

____________________________________________________________

In his most famous speech, delivered upon the dedication of a national cemetery at the battlefield in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, Lincoln gave a brief but profound meditation on the meaning of the Civil War and American union. With the Emancipation Proclamation as a replacement and pivotal development of the federal war effort, Lincoln sought to elucidate why the war to preserve the Union. The nation would need to experience "a new birth of freedom" so that "government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth, According to Lincoln.
