Tasks

 

     With your letter I believe we were able to make some serious progress!  You told me everything I needed to know about John Adam’s.  I have to admit, I thought he was a scoundrel for what he did, but I won’t judge him, he may yet prove to be a true American.  Also the information you gave me on the “Boston Massacre” was very enlightening.  I had learned that a boy had died at that massacre, and I feared it was my Nicholas.  By doing all that research you have shown me it wasn’t, so there is still hope that he is alive!  I have a few more tasks for you; hopefully they lead us to the truth about my son.

 

1)    I need you to investigate a Bostonian by the name of Paul Revere.  I have been hearing some whisperings that he was involved in something big that took place in Boston about a year ago.  Please, find all you can about Paul Revere.

2)    I also need you to find out what the Boston Tea Party was all about.  Maybe my son was in attendance… was it a real party?  You should read what you can on this event, and once again try your best to get an eyewitness account of it.  I am not sure if these two tasks are related or not, but if they are make sure you mention it.

 

Instructions

 

       Please get back to me by no later than a week.  Once again Mr. Postma knows how to get a hold of me, so leave him you letter.  I expect you letter to be thorough, so make sure it is a minimum of 3 pages double-spaced. Thank you for all you help!  To continue with the quest, go to More Questions.
