Trail+of+Tears+CLM

Trail of Tears __**Little Girl in Yellow:**__ I am getting tired of walking this march. I just want to go home and be protected. My feet ach and my stomach growls. Everyone here in my family is very hungrey but Pa says that he can not get us any food. He just says that we have to keep on walking. I don't think my sister can stand another minute of this.
 * __Mama:__** All of us on this journey have had some hard times. Every since we Cherokee's were in contact with European explores we have been one of the most progressed American Indian tribes. But we were very different from the people in Europe. Slowly but surly the white influence came into Cherokee and we were changed forever.
 * __Father:__** Every since our part of Tennessee got owned by the Americans we have been on the move towards Oklahoma. (cough, cough) Many people around us did not want to move, but President Jackson made us and here we are. With hunger, diseases, and exhausion during this walk it has been especially hard on the kids. It is depressing to known that has a father I can not help them.
 * __Sister:__** I don't want to be here any more. I have seen a lot of people dead along the street and I don't want be one of them. Everyone is crying, crying, crying and can't stop. Father is looking pretty sick himself. He can't stop cough and I don't think he will last very long.
