Dear Journal,
We ended up having a marvelous harvest which filled our small home with corn and wheat. One of the news boys ran by our house shouting about someone named Thayendnegea convinced a band of First Nations to join the British, it seemed like good news. Our life here and the life of others goes on though all the same despite all the comings and goings of wealthier and more important people. Unfortunately though next door - the house with the slaves - one of the slaves accidentally made a mistake while tending to the fields and got in trouble, and I haven't seen him since. Our own problems though - even with our excellent season of crops - have gotten worse. While trying to plant for next years crops there have been heavy gales that have ruined this season. I don't know how we'll make it!
