Lost Papers part 3
March 21, 2017
Beloved Abigail,
My heart is heavy
I am so far away
Mama and Papa
will care for you
until I soon return
Waves are boisterous
Crashing on the ship
Calm this morn with
Sun splashed water
There is battling now
Wind and high waves
I write you my dearest
Then seal into a jar
Lest we are lost into darkness
Floating her secrets to the sea.
I send you and the little one
Love and embraces
This ship will bring me
Quickly to your arms
Know that I love you.
Your loving Samuel
Bobby was very quiet then asked if it would be possible to find out what happened to Samuel and if he ever returned home.
His father said only if they knew what the name of the ship he was on and the date it was sailing.
“It will be almost impossible because we do not have many clues to work on. You found the chest, Bobby so it will be up to you to decide if you keep it or not.” said his father.
“Well it would be really cool to keep the chest and contents but I am thinking if we put it into a display case everyone will be able to see the contents and the letters and just maybe someday someone will remember they had relatives named Samuel and Abigail then they will sole the mystery of the
lost Letters.” replied Bobby.
All the men applauded Bobby saying:”bravo Bravo Bravo!
