On October 20th, 1869, I finally saved enough money to Make my journey from Moscow Russia, down to the harbor, to get on a boat to America with enough food, buy a wagon and horse when there in America, and go to the Oklahoma territory. This was hundreds of dollars I saved up from working in a factory.

We got on the boat first and set off to America. Everyone was wearing old ripped clothing. When I looked back at the dock, there were thousands of people waiting to get on the boat.

Kovac Dikinshtein is immigrating from Russia to America because of his poor town. He wants to farm in the Oklahoma territory that is in America.

We got off the boat first at Ellis Island. We had to go through so many medical examinations. The worst one was the eye examination. We had to flip our eye lids over so they can see if we had some sort of eye disease. http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=Boston+Harbor+1800's&qs=n&form=QBIR&pq=boston+harbor+1800

When I got to the Oklahoma Territory, we didn't even have to buy land! There was the Homestead Act! When we got our land, we got seeds to plant crops with it too. After a long day of work, Some group of moronic adults came out and burned all of them! We had no crops or anything to sell.
