  • Sail To America

    Sail To America
    My brother and I sailed across the Atlantic Ocean in a smelly and crowded boat at the ages of 19, and 20. It didn’t take long till people started getting sick and started dying. We noticed dark clouds ahead and didn’t think much of them, until it hit us…….storm clouds! We vigorously fought trying to keep the ship on track and we did. The rest of the trip was just dealing with weirdos and trying to stay calm.
  • Landed in Rehoboth Delaware

    We arrived at Delaware to begin our journey of the new land. Me and my brother found a nice place to stay that had big beds and provided us with breakfast, and dinner for a small extra cost. The food was decent but not amazing , especially the meat! The meat is undercooked and we started to consider moving. We started to get more involved with stealing and will soon join a gang on December 1st, 1890

    Looking for new job
    November 19th, 1890, I go looking for a job to try and get more money to support our house.
    I am interested in working in a meat packing industry. I found a factory named, "the meat works."
    I went in and applied for a job. I got accepted but I was not able to start until December 1st.
    I will get paid 9$ an hour and will be provided with discounts off any meats that I purchase from our factory.
  • New Life

The people I work with are great, I made a couple of new friends today. My boss is Great! He called me in today and asked me how I was liking the job. I love this job, Me and my brother finally found a gang and we began to rob people, and get things we wont, life here is great for us, and it is way better than Russia!
