Come to North Carolina Colony

1650
Dear Sir,


Come to our beautiful North Carolina colony and enjoy the good life. It is worth the ride over the sea.

When you come to North Carolina there are many jobs to make money. For example one of the jobs is farming tobacco. That is my favorite farming job! We got the tobacco from the Indians that we traded with. We grow lots of tobacco. We even let our kids have tobacco. If you’re not interested in that then you can be a gunsmith. A gunsmith requires the skills of a blacksmith. It also takes a long time because you have to carve the shape of the gun out of wood.

Next I will tell our climate. The climate is mostly warm. You won’t have to worry about the winter we don’t get much snow. The climate also has a lot of rain the average is 50in. I think this climate is wonderful remember bring the right gear so you don’t freeze to death.

Now I will tell you about the location. It is easy to find. North Carolina is surrounded by Virginia and South Carolina. Be sure to tell the captain this 35 46N 78 38W in the southern colonies.

Finally beware of the hardships. Listen up cause if you don’t your toast. One of the hardships was Native Americans. I do not like it when they fight with us. Other hardships are swamps with snakes and alligators. Beware of the snakes!

Now you know all of the information you need to know when you come. As you can see it will be easy to get money, find the location and you know to bring the right gear for our climate. Remember about the hardships.


Sincerely,


Thomas Petersen
