we are the good citizens of Philadelphia we are the true patriots the rich do not follow the rules of our new country all we want is a fair shake we must fight the Americans why should we honor the treaty of Camp Charlotte? The Americans haven't done it, they burned our fields, they cut down trees, they slaughtered animals for sport, I'm with you, I'm with you. You, there has to be justice for everyone, but this is not justice, this is wrong, it is freedom, zero American freedom, I have traveled the world and there is nothing like it anywhere and you, Sarah, are you an American Sarah?

This is a mistake, the trip will take me months, which is why I hired an excellent reliable guide, Mr. Petty John, and Ohio is wild, it is the

frontier

, it is uncivilized. You know, I appreciate your concern, but neither my mother nor I have received a letter from my father in years. We have to find out if he's okay. right, I should find out that's double what carrots cost me a few weeks ago, how am I supposed to feed my

kids

? Yes, Peter, I know you're hungry. I'm ready please Mr. Petty John wait for me Sarah wait do we have to yell at him? your face we are worried we will never see you again I hope to introduce you to father at least let me go with you to protect you mr petty john mr buddy john where is my bag mr petty work mr petty john come back I traveled two months and too far to fail, please don't Leave me, Mr.

Petty John, how far have I walked these last two days? I'm so hungry I'll rest for a moment oh father, where is he? ah oh oh, I'm a cornstalk. no one will hurt you here you are free to go you are free to keep some whites stay I will leave as soon as I am stronger I am glad you came at this important time the meeting will start soon running dear I find an unconscious white girl in the woods. She's afraid of me. I'll take you to her after greeting the other bosses. We can't afford ink at that price.

It's almost half of what it cost last month. That's not my problem, boy, but we won. I will not be able to publish the bulletin. How will citizens receive news of the war? I have to eat too. Are you buying the ink or not? It's not a good day for you, so how did you do that? I brought a white man. Speak English? my name is sarah phillips my name is samuel samuel phillips father sarah my lord i thought you had returned to london father mustaches look at you i guess i no longer look like the proper british officer but sarah the war i wrote to him telling him to go back to your mother your mother is she fine yes father she is fine she did not answer any of my letters and neither was I afraid I received only two letters father nothing sent 75 that's why I had to find you it's a miracle that you did it sarah you have fallen in love with this land while I look at this place walking where no Englishman has walked before living with my hands taking no orders from anyone left right left right left right the hot tan you must tell me about yourself sarah, look at you, I barely know it begins as we walk back to the village there is a tribal council to which I must attend with my friend Chief Cornstalk We, the good citizens of Philadelphia, urgently request that the local militia expel from our city all disaffected people and their supporters, you know what disaffected people are hard-working people who don't want to be poor, who wants to feed his

children

and is not afraid to say it.

We are the good citizens of Philadelphia. We are the true patriots. We are supporting this war behind our backs. The rich love us. keep your mouth shut while your children gorge themselves the rich are not following the rules of our new we want the country to be treated fairly come to a meeting at Paddy Burns Tavern tomorrow at nine and tell everyone you know and I will report on the meeting in the pennsylvania gazette excellent boy, rich man, are you afraid of us poor working Americans, maybe you are right to be afraid? we should fight the Americans, why should we honor the treaty of Camp Charlotte, the Americans have not done it, they are supposed to let us live in peace north of the Ohio River, but they burn our fields, cut down trees, kill animals for sport, they shoot at us on our shore, why should we turn our backs on them when we are wounded?

We are losing our land, our lives. our self-respect I'm not saying we should attack the Americans if they leave us alone I'm saying we should protect ourselves if they attack us or we will be destroyed I gave my word to the Americans that we would remain peaceful and I did too Many of you I have never broken my word word, right? But there is one thing that worries me even more than my honor as a man: the survival of my people, if we fight the Americans, they will come at us until they destroy us, we do not have the strength to drive them out our best hope is that the Americans lose their white man's war against the English.

I am a warrior. It's hard for me not to fight the Americans, but if we can survive this war and the English win, we will give them our children. and our daughters and their sons and daughters a chance to survive very well played sarah sarah you would be a good johnny why thank you illinipsico that is a great compliment sarah they believe that most white people are bad people our grandmothers told us so we don't I know your grandmother our grandmother is the god of Shawnee oh our grandmother takes care of us she gives us good crops and hunting trips and victory in the games red feather what is horn stock our fishing group American soldiers only I am alive we must move our village to another maybe not we must defend ourselves my people are enraged by American violence I don't know if I can keep the peace any longer I am honor bound to tell the Americans that I must go to Fort Randolph my son will go with me let me go too I know Commander Matthew Arbuckle , maybe I can help, let's send them a message they can't ignore.

Three years ago, James Wilson signed the declaration of independence. He is now a British sympathizer who is robbing us blind. I say we take Wilson's tar, feather him and ride. him out of town on the train, yeah, let's go, I want you away from trouble, wait, don't do it, uh, oh, the journalist, I thought he was with us, I'm with you, I'm with you, there needs to be justice for all, but This is not justice, this is wrong, you don't just grab someone and hurt them. I'm starting to think maybe there's another one that needs tar and feathers.

Forget the boy, let's find Father Wilson, yes, Sarah, are you English or American? As? I have often asked myself the same question: The men at the fort now consider me an American

frontier

sman, and so do I. I'm not sure my mother would be grateful to know that and neither would I, but I fell in love with this country just like I fell in love with her, it's freedom, sir, American freedom, I've traveled the world and there's nothing like it anywhere. side and you, Sarah, are you American? Ah, I hope seeing you will convince me that I won't come, Randolph, what will happen? the shawnee of the americans win the war i don't want to think about that get out of there your tory james wilson had been warned that he was the target of the mafia and he retreated to his sturdy house with 20 supporters get out wilson before we had to destroy your nice house, I ask for the cannon, I will return to my people and urge them to leave this area, but they might attack you instead, so boss, are you telling me that we may be at war with the Shawnee at any moment? , Yeah?

I have warned you and now we will leave. You're lucky you're a retired British major, Sam, or I'd have to put you in the guardhouse with my new enemies here, take them and keep them safe, but Matthew Sir Cornstar came here. In peace and honor, to warn you about the very people he tried to dissuade from attacking you, Sam, I suggest you take your daughter as far away from this place as you can. Joseph Reed, president of our city's executive council, led his light horse to break up the crowd five men were killed in the Fort Wilson riots and 17 were wounded James Wilson is no angel, but in our new nation everyone has the right to due process legal, just like the writer of this article, who was threatened with bodily harm for daring to take The problem with the mafia has the right, no, the responsibility to write the truth as he sees it in the United States of America, we People, we have the freedom to write what we want to write.

I lost you for six years, Sarah, I won't risk losing. You forever, we couldn't help Cornstalk even in ipsico, something I will always regret what will happen to them father, they will probably be held hostage and exchanged with Shawnee for American prisoners. Ron Robert Gilmore, Shawnee killed him, get the now I fear for our friends lives, they wouldn't use the elliptical, I will never understand white men, they have no rules, they have no honor, the war has been a disaster for Shawnee, What will happen to us, father, will we fight against the Americans and will we be destroyed? and what will happen to us maybe the Americans will change us for soldiers maybe they will kill us if they do since we are warriors our souls will enjoy a special place with our grandmother in heaven because we will celebrate and dance forever I said it doesn't touch the Shawnees we can change them for our own no captain we will do to them what they did to robin elin nipsico i have seen you grow to adulthood i am proud of the man you will become we will have revenge for our great The chief and his son we will make the river safe for that our fishermen fish and our children bathe.

We will drive the white man out of the Ohio Valley forever, Father, what kind of land is this? The fight will never stop, Sarah, listen to me. Listen to me, I was fooling myself into thinking that you and your mother could accompany me here. The Ohio border is too wild. I would like to get you out of here right now, but I can't. I must help my Shawnee friends through this difficult time I went through. A solemn promise to Cornstalk that he would do it, but what if I survive this wall? I also promise this and so do you, Mr.

Father. I want to go to Philadelphia, to England, to my mother. I can't stand the violence anymore, father. Can? forgive me, there is nothing to forgive, I will be happy to have you away from the fighting when the war is over, you and your mother will join me in New York, Massachusetts or Connecticut and we will live our lives together as we want, what if? We don't want to come so I will say goodbye to this land I love and join you and your mother in England. I wonder if you will like my mustaches, dear sarah james henry and moses now that the work of achieving a treaty with France is complete.

I think my duties have become even more considerable than before. Articles to write funds to raise boring swear words with fine gentlemen and powdered wigs. Forget this war for a moment. I miss you all and hope to be reunited soon. the city I love with the people I love how I long for the day when we dance and sing together happily I will play the violin badly, of course, but it doesn't matter because all of us, dear, dear friends, will live together in freedom in our cookie jar of the new nation
