Amanda Chordas 10/21/08 Earth My Brother Sam Is Dead Letter Dear Sam, We miss you Sam, we need you here. Although I appreciate your passion for your country we need you. It’s been so hard around here with out your father. Tim and I even have to work on Sundays, witch is a sin, but I pray that God will forgive us knowing what we have gone through. Sam, you should be helping us and going to Yale not playing solider boy. I have already lost your father I will not lose you or your brother to this monster of a war. You have a duty to your family you have finished with the war. You have done your job there. Your brother can’t even go to school anymore because we have to work so much. You need to come home and help so your brother can go to school and have the same chance you did. We have least and least everyday. We heard about peoples cattle are being stolen and soon we not know what’s going to happen with the tavern. This war has come to Redding and in not a good way. They have taken Jerry too. We are worried about your wellbeing. We have people coming in talking to about the war and all I can think about is you. It’s hard to work when we know you can be dying or fighting. Let the others fight for ‘”freedom” but you are done we need you here. You will not die for my freedom. Your father would have wanted you home. He would have wanted you to help run the tavern and help to teach your brother and go back to school. We hope you will come home after reading this letter. Think about it Sam.
