Chains Letter

Dear Ruth,

Why did you get sold? Where did you go? I have so many questions. The British have invaded New York, and they took some rebels prisoner. Curzon was one of those. Some of the British are here at this house, and some hessians too. Becky left, and we have more slaves in the house. There was a huge fire that destroyed a lot of the city, Lady Seymour's hose was set a flame. We only have a few things from her house. I was there, sleeping, when it started. I hope everything is going well for you.


Love,
Isabel
