Subject: July 4th at Farwell


Those stubborn Brits turned up again to "take back the colonies."

A hard battle was fought. Both sides claim to have won the battle, however the territory is still under the control of the Americans.

OOPS, here they come again. Riders on horseback descending the hillside. The Americans recovered the mail in the early morning skirmish or so it was thought. The riders are delivering a packet, whether it is a message from their generals or mail they didn't surrender earlier is not clear at this point.

The horses are very well behaved and the riders make a fine spectacle.

Now they are returning from whence they came.

Peace reigns once again at Farwell as we look forward to afternoon and evening activities which include a reenactment of the Boston Tea Party and Farwell Fireworks over the Lake.

Happy Fourth!
