“I am sick - discontented - and out of humor. Poor food - hard lodging - Cold Weather - fatigue - Nasty Cloaths - nasty Cookery - Vomit half my time - smoak’d out of my senses - the Devil’s in’t - I can’t Endure it - Why are we sent her to starve and freeze…” (Waldo, 1777) The American soldiers spending the winter at Valley Forge suffered in the bad conditions. During that winter, the disease “small pox” attacked a large percentage of the soldiers in Valley Forge, causing them to die. As a result, many soldiers left or fled from Valley Forge. Would you have quit? An American soldier at Valley Forge should not have quit. This is because they should fight for their independence,realize that they have a high chance at survival, and both Washington

valley Forge was named for an iron forge on Valley Creek in Whitemarsh, Pennsylvania. It was not the best place to set up winter camp for the Continental Army, as it was unable to defend southern Pennsylvania at the time. This location also left the vulnerable under-supplied army in striking distance of the British, who were well provisioned and secured in Philadelphia. The area was close enough to the British to keep their raiding and foraging parties out of the interior of Pennsylvania,

Henry McCarty, born around 1859 in the Manhattan area of New York, was more commonly known as Billy the Kid or William Bonney. His mother, Catherine, was an immigrant from Ireland who worked odd jobs to support their family. Soon after the death of her husband, Catherine, Henry, and her younger son Joseph moved to Indianapolis, Indiana, where she met her future husband William Antrim. The family accompanied Antrim to Kansas, and then New Mexico after Catherine was diagnosed with tuberculosis and advised to seek a warmer, drier climate. Antrim and Catherine were married soon after the move to New Mexico.

Would you have quit at Valley Forge? Residing in Valley Forge are 12,000 of approximately 25,000 men of the Continental Army. Led by the phenomenal general George Washington, many brave lives are volunteers to fight for independence. Although the Washington’s army was very hopeful, it was having difficulties parting from Britain. Lacking a settlement for the winter of 1777, half the army retreated to Valley Forge. As they were undergoing horrific times, Britain quartered pleasantly in Philadelphia just 18 miles Northwest. Conditions are horrible for Valley Forge, lacking necessities and military aid. Although the French provided money and troops soon after, it was not nearly enough for the camp. The odds aren’t even at all and a troop’s will

“The time is now at hand which must probably determine whether Americans are or be Freemen or Slaves.” -George Washington. It all started on a cold and wintry day in December. Soldiers began to make a winter camp at Valley Forge, about 18 miles west of Philadelphia.In October Washington's army retreated from Boston and New York in October, and just recently had failed in keeping the British out of Philadelphia. Philadelphia is the Forming Nation's Capitol. The army retreated to Valley forge, where they would stay for the next many months.They would stay until they could defeat the British in Philadelphia, in which the British set up base comfortably. I am a 9 month soldier, and my contract ends on March first.

I find myself one of George Washington’s soldiers fighting for the rebels at Valley Forge. Valley Forge is a hard place to live and especially fight, but something’s make more of an impact than other things here. One is that our hearts are constantly filled with smoke and our eyes are constantly affected by this. Another is a sickness, we have thousands of men sick here and many have already died. And one of the main things is that we are running very low on meat and quality food and we are eating low protein food. But despite those things I still have a hard decision to make soon I will have to decide to reenlist or not and go home to my family. I believe that I will reenlist for three reasons which are I need to provide for my family and

In “Harrison Bergeron”, we are meant to feel bad for George and Hazel Bergeron because of how they are being punished for the kind of people they are mentally and physically, the conflict and ending of their son’s life, and Harrison’s failed rebellion.

In Valley Forge there is a big war for the capitol. I usually have no shoes but this time I am staying. It is cold and no meat. No Meat! No Meat! (Waldo,151). With the congress supporting and the army needing healthy men would you have quit? I would have stayed.

His interest was sparked by William Sturgeon’s first electromagnet that he built in 1825 in London. In 1830, Henry built the world’s most powerful electromagnet, the Albany Magnet, lifting as much as 750 pounds of metal at a time, a huge increase on the 9 pounds achieved by Sturgeon. In the months of June and July of 1831, Henry built an electromagnet for Penfield and Taft Ironworks in Ironville, NY. Henry was already familiar with the mines in the area as he was seeking pure soft iron to work with in his experiments. The device developed for ore separation is the first commercial use of electricity in history. By 1831 Henry’s electromagnets could lift more than 2000 pounds. In 1833, after moving from Albany to Princeton, Henry built a new record-breaking electromagnet capable of lifting 3300 pounds. (famous

Growing up as a child, no one expects a young one to be out in the fields, in factories or even being a slave working their precious lives away. During one of America’s toughest generations, children were seen doing some of the same jobs and tasks that adults were having to take on. Making less than twenty to twenty five cents a day, children’s lives were at risk for nothing. As time went on, child labor laws were enacted to save children from abuse, neglect, serious injury and even death in the work place. As we sit in history classes, tour museums and take upon us the emotional and sometimes gruesome images from this time period, no words can describe how awful it must have been for one involved. But on the other hand, there was a positive side to the growth and construction of the American Nation through the New York City skyline. As one wraps up inside each photo, they most of the time do not realize who truly has captured them.
