Lundy's Lane

Dear His Majesty,

I have some interesting news for you. I am not sure if it's goo or bad because it is about a battle with no real victor. A little while ago on Lundy's Lane near Niagara Falls we fought a battle with the Americans in the dead of night. We could not see anything. Both us and the Americans fired on our own men several times. We both suffered heavy casaulties but in the end the Americans retreated to Fort Erie and we pulled back to fortify ourselves and to get reinforcements. We were waiting for an attack which never came. The next day both us and the Americans claimed victory. I am not sure if this is good or bad but I think sir the Americans are beginning to want to end the war sir, I think this may have been the last battle we fight. Please inform me on the developments on the war with Napolean.

Signed
General Sheaffe

  1. Dear Sheaffie,
    Are you INSANE?!? Why on earth would you have a battle in the dead of night?!? Even though you one the battle, it was not worth the price you paid for the lives of those men that you yourself killed. Oh, by the way, you need to come over to my house for dinner some time. Also, I hope you like the tea cozy that I sent you in the mail. Happy Birthday.

    XOXO,
    Granny Sheaffe
    Mother of General Sheaffe
    That's RIGHT.
