Journal of a Settler Number 5

Dear Journal,

We arrived in Upper Canada and decided to travel to Newark, the capital. Unfortunately when we arrived in Newark a man named Simcoe arrived and was made the first lieutenant governor of Upper Canada, and he chose to move the capital from Newark to a place called London and he also established a military base in York. So despite the fact that we are no longer in the capital we are still happier then we were in Nova Scotia. We bought a nice piece of land near the lake so it is quite fertile and very easy to work. So far our life here has been good without many problems so we may just make it.
