WILLIAM: I must say, it is good to be a farmer in these uncertain economic times. We may not live in one of the big cities like Richmond, but at least we, unlike those city folk.

YOU: Yes, but our family is growing fast, and there isn’t much available land around here for our children to own once they reach adulthood. I think we should consider moving to the new territories that have opened up in the.

WILLIAM: I have considered that, but Congress has set such a high price for plots of land for settlers: almost $1 an acre. It is frustrating, since Congress has been selling land to for just a few cents per acre.

YOU: I heard that some families are planning to move to the new territories without buying land from the government. They will either become squatters on unoccupied land or purchase land from .

WILLIAM: That’s an interesting idea. And with Congress unable to raise enough money to support the army, there wouldn’t be much the government could do to stop us.

 

YOU: I’ve had it with Congress. It has been three years since the signing of the Treaty of Paris, and we still haven’t seen the money that we’re owed! I haven’t received any money from my military pension. I was also promised, yet here I sit, without that either.

ABNER: It could be worse. I wasted two whole years camping with Washington’s Continental army in New York. They were barely able to give us enough wages, clothes, or even food. No wonder Congress Washington’s request to maintain a standing national army.

YOU: If Congress were able to, maybe they would be able to pay us and have that national army as well. As it stands now, our country is defended only by.

ABNER: It makes you wonder why we fought the war in the first place!

 

LYDIA: Dear husband, I was hoping we could talk about our finances. Ever since the war, it seems like the cost of food here in Boston has.

YOU: I know, my dear. I have been looking at the books as well. We haven’t been able to import as many goods as I would like. Also, since no one trusts the paper currency issued by Congress, I have had to rely on for most transactions, which is cumbersome.

LYDIA: Have you heard the rumors about a new Bank of North America? I have heard they are issuing loans, and their paper currency is backed by gold and silver, so it is risky than Congress’s paper currency.

YOU: I will consider looking into it. I do worry what would happen if we couldn’t pay off such a loan, however. If anything happens to limit trade in our new country, it is possible that our business could.

Soon after, our captain enlisted our support in the efforts of Edmond Genet. Our orders were to.

Before we could deliver our goods, our ship and crew were. I don't intend to upset you with this news, but I have to share all that has happened. I remained safe throughout all of this by becoming close with the captain and an important member of the crew. Thankfully, today is a different day, and things have drastically changed. The Jay Treaty has brought peace to the waters and we are happy the Senate struck down the provision forbidding the exporting of. Our next voyage begins in one week, and I hope to be able to visit you soon after.

Dear Harriet,

I feel the need to reflect on our current involvement with the French and British. I am sorry if I ramble in this letter, but it always feels good to write about what I am thinking. In the beginning of this conflict, it seemed the were absurd in their support for the French. While I know the British can be aggressive, I had no idea about their abilities at retaliation. Beyond their actions on water, they aided who wanted to resist white settlement. As a Federalist from the North, I  the Jay Treaty. Perhaps it will bring an end to our involvement in this war.

Sincerely,

William

April 8, 1796

Dear Christophe,

Edmund Genet is a hero! His efforts at expertly thwarting have greatly helped the revolution. American President Washington is a fool to not support our efforts and is even weaker than I thought if he feels compelled to withdraw his support for France after a series of necessary. While these sentiments are more relevant to a few years ago, they are brought up again by the actions of John Jay. Again, we have an ineffective American representing his country in international matters. He could not even get the British to agree to. Our national heroes are at least a small bit more effective than these men. I will send another letter soon to tell you what I have been doing with my time, but right now I so desired to share my French pride with you, my friend.

Take care,

Charles
