...FINDER I love the idea of using the Greek word for Finder as the main character’s name… maybe that could even work into the title? The headlines are talking. They say that there are only an estimated 6000 Followers left worldwide and about 10 percent of them may be found in North America. China claims to have wiped them out altogether, while India believes that they can be rehabilitated. Those headlines were from two days ago blaring through my Blue Tooth and YAHWEH alone knows how many of us are left. But after 80 - 100 years of persecution, since the Government’s war on the Followers, we’ve learned how to hide in plain sight. It takes a lot more money living in The Cities than in the communes where I was raised. But after they found our camp, about forty people strong, maybe 34 of us all told were BORNAGAINSAVED. The others were people we’d find on the road hungry, alone, broken; designated appointments from YAHWEH – well after they found our camp . . . well, I’ve been living in cities since then. They called us something else then, but the name has been lost. Now they just call us walking dead or religious trash. Either way it’s all the same. If they catch us, then it’s the Big Show: no ifs, ands, or but’s. Even on the news feeds, we’re “they,” or “suspects,” or “fanatics” and never our names. We’re the nameless ones. That’s how we can tell true Followers from the government plants they keep sending us. You can tell by the scars we carry. Many of us grow our hairs...

...cannot take control of their own actions. The theme for “Pocahontas to Her English Husband” is love but it is described in a different way. She tends to portray a more pity type of love than affectionate and romantic way. Pocahontas has a way to display a very kind hearted personality because she is willing to show her support to help John. “Had I not cradled you in my arms / oh beloved perfidious one, / you would have died” (“Allen” 1-3). The tone for “Taking a Visitor to See the Ruins” was dull without my life behind the words but humor. “His eyes grew large, and then he laughed / looking shocked at the two women he’d just met. Silent for a second, they laughed too” (“Allen” 28-30). The theme is happiness and laughter even after he realized that his friend was playing a joke on him he took that great moment and continued on. “ And he’s still telling the tale of the old / Indian ruins he visited in New Mexico, / the two who still live pueblo style in high-security dwelling / way up there where the enemy can’t reach them / just like golden times” (“Allen” 31-35). The tone for “ Dear John Wayne”, seems very sour, it seem that the character John Wayne is viewed as a item of central society and states that the face is “a thick cloud of vengeance, pitted / like...

Towards the beginning of the story, Abigail chooses to lie about the dancing in the woods and falsely accuse many innocent people of witchcraft. Abigail threatens Betty with “Now look you. All of you. We danced. And Tituba conjured Ruth Putnam's dead sisters. And that is all. And mark this. Let either of you breathe a word, or the edge of a word, about the other things, and I will come to you in the black of some terrible night and I will bring a pointy reckoning that will shudder you.

...In the letter written by Abigail Adams to her son John Quincy Adams, who at the time was traveling with his father, a United States diplomat and the country’s second president. Abigail expresses to John Quincy Adams how important it is to take advantage of the great opportunity and to never stop excelling in life no matter what he may face. Through the use of parallel structure, imagery, and allusions, Abigail Adams effectively advises her son to be better, to make his nation and better and to excel in the high expectation that is given to him. All through her letter, Adams utilizes her honest tone to encourage her son to make his parents and his nation happy. She consistently uses the words "my son", from the earliest starting point beginning off her letter with "my dear son", to the end. She does this to advise him that despite the fact that she talks formally, with great detail and expectation, she doesn’t want him to think that he...

...S. History 08 October 2012 A Letter to My Dearest Friend John Smith September 15, 1616 Dear John, Since I have met you I, Matoaka (Pocahontas), have matured into a great woman. Most people know me as "the most dear and well-beloved," but other people (Powhaton Tribe Members) still think of me as "the devil child or playful-one." In my opinion I am just a strong, resilient, self sacrificing, and overly caring lady of the Tidewater Region. Therefore embracing my new lifestyle as a Christian wife and mother is easy. When I was growing up in Werowocomoco which is about twelve miles outside Jamestown, Virginia I learned what I thought were necessary skills to being a good wife and mother but not how to be a colonial wife and mother. Being a colonial wife and mother means cooking, cleaning, sewing, making clothing, and assisting in raising baby Thomas to be a great man. In contrast to my tribes way of life where the good wife and mother constructs the house and everything associated with it, cooking and preparing food, gathering firewood, collecting water, rearing children, making clothing, planting, harvesting, making useful items (baskets, pots, wooden spoons), processing meats, tanning hides, and collecting plants. Apparently being a Powhaton mother and wife is harder than being a colonial one. I am really enjoying all the free time. In regards to my feelings I think I am finally in love with my husband John Rolfe. Even though I was forced to marry him for peace between...

...The American Revolution Project Letter Dear Sister, I take this one spare moment I have to tell you, I have been wounded and will not be returning home. I’m currently at Valley Forge. It’s dreadfully cold, and we have no food or clothing for most men. I’m missing you and the family terribly bad at this point. With all Love, Ben Zucchini John Hancock John Hancock was born on January 23rd, 1737, in Braintree, Massachusetts. After his father died, he was raised by his wealthy aunt and uncle. John Hancock went on to graduate Harvard in 1754. After he had graduated he went to go work for his Uncle. After his uncle, Thomas Hancock, died, John Hancock inherited his import-export business and became one of the richest men in all of New England. Hancock would later on be very generous with his wealth. He used it for public projects; however, he received criticism from many people including Samuel Adams, for living a plentiful life. In 1775 John Hancock married Dorothy Quincy, daughter of a merchant. They had two children, a boy and a girl. Neither of which survived to adulthood. In 1776 John Hancock entered local politics when he was elected Boston selectman. The next year, he won election to Massachusetts legislature. Around this time, British began imposing tax laws, and trying to gain more control over the thirteen colonies. The colonists opposed these laws, and started to become anti-British, this lead to the American Revolution. Hancock came into direct conflict...

...Dear John Doe, I’m very interested in how this subject will help me in my field of study. I have a few questions to ask, and was looking for some clarity on the subject matter. A few of my concerns are, what benefits will I gain so I can use them on my job? How will this enhanced my major in computer networking? Last but not least, how will this expand my writing? From past experiences, writing was never one of my strong suits, but I’m willing to learn what I need to know in order to take it to the next level. I want to know how I can apply some of this stuff to my job. Are there any workshops I need to attend? For example, some sample writing on trying to get a job that you have the experience for yet. Another question I have is how will this enhanced my area of study? I know job wise will help but say if I’m running binary codes for networking. Are there any tips for brainstorming? My last question is how can I expand my writing skills? There are many more questions I have but these will be some of the highlight ones I’m looking to get answered. To conclude, I hope I gain the proper knowledge in writing. I’m looking to be the best at whatever I put my hands to, and with the proper help, I hope I’m able to pass some of this valuable information off to someone else who are having the same types of questions that I’m having. So thank you for giving me the opportunity to ask some questions and I’m looking forward to hearing back from you and some of the response that you...

It’s a sort of testament. The people signing it declare their good opinion of Rebecca, and my wife, and Martha Corey. Danforth looks down at the paper. Parris, to enlist Danforth’s sarcasm: Their good opinion! But Danforth goes on reading, and Proctor is heartened. Proctor: These are all landholding farmers, members of the church. Delicately, trying to point out a paragraph: If you’ll notice, sir-they’ve known the women many years and never saw no sign they had dealings with the Devil” (Miller 75). In this part, John hands Danforth a piece of paper containing a bunch of names agreeing to Rebecca and Martha Corey’s good name and saying they had no correlation with the Devil. “Proctor, his voice about to break, and his shame great: In proper place-where my beasts are bedded.
