The New World

It had been day since we've seen land.  The Virginia Company sent my Mistress, Ms. Ruth Watson.  Since she went I had to too.  As her servant I had many duties.

It was a cold March evening when my Mistress received a letter that she was approved to go to Jamestown.  I packed 3 dresses, 1 pair of comfortable shoes, socks and a hat.  My Mistress packed 9 dresses, a cap, fancy shoes, socks and a flowered bonnet.  Around April 9th we set off for Jamestown.
