Thomas Jones: A Short Story

As I ran, I felt my foot come down on top of a moss filled rock, and I knew I was in trouble. The slick moss ripped away from the slab of granite and it sent me flying. I knew the fall would be inevitable, and took the it as best I could and prayed for some luck. Branches ripped apart my face, snapping from the contact. Blood flicked up into my eyes. My shoulder made contact with the trunk of a tree as the rest of my body dug into the mud.

Now about three months later, it’s october 13th, Molly’s birthday. It was Me, Molly, Gabi, and some other friends who I honestly can’t remember the names of.

As the attacks and counter attacks of the 15th Alabama and 20th progressed, men became scrambled into smaller groups and attacks from the right wing eventually pushed the left wing of the 20th Maine to higher ground. Intervals of the struggle were seized to gather ammunition from the cartridge boxes of the disabled friend or foe on the field as ammunition ran low. Far to the rear of the 20th Maine, our men and those of the 83rd Pennsylvania and 44th New York Regiments began receiving fire from the right end of the 15th Alabama line at higher ground . It was then that Lieutenant Martin Van Buren Gifford who was sent by Captain Woodward of the 83rd to ask if we had been turned, but I denied and asked for a company to shore up our left wing . Captain Woodward couldn’t spare a company but fortunately, he would pull back the left wing of his regimental line and straighten it to the left, closing the gap between the 83rd, for me to move my right wing to the left. However, continued attacks by the left wing of the 15th Alabama forced companies E, I, K, and D of the 20th Maine to fall back up the slope of Little Round Top .

Water has always been a great issue for Dallas, considering the fact that the population has grown exponentially since the late 1850s, growing from merely 678 people in 1860 to well over one million in population currently. Furthermore, as population grew, Dallas also spatially grew due to their power to keep acquiring more land and water resources as demand for both increased. Although Dallas no longer uses groundwater due to inefficient supply, the city did rely on groundwater in the beginning of its history. In the late 1850s, Browder Springs was privately owned by the Browder family, providing clean water to those living near, however, when it became clear that the increasing population needed an organization to effectively

Discovered in the twentieth century, The Gospel of Thomas was founded by peasants that were digging for fertilizer close to the village of Nag Hammadi, Egypt. The peasants revealed a container containing thirteen leather-bound manuscripts that were buried in the fourteenth century. The container contained fifty-two tractates that represented “heretical” writings of Gnostic Christians.
