Patriot Nathan Just as I watched my brother Gabriel taken away by the British for being in the continental army as a post messenger I saw my second oldest brother shot in the back when he attempted to rescue Gabriel.

As my family and I watched the British take away Gabriel the officers ordered the burning of our home. As our house was lit on fire father ran inside and came out armed with several rifles, a hand gun, a hatchet and a dagger. Then he calls out to me and my younger brother to come with him where we lined up along the British where they couldn't see and we started to attack them as we started to kill more and more of them father decided to run down there and attack them with his hatchet and dagger killing at least 10 soldiers on his own. It was amazing how well he fought in combat being it is our first time in combat I didn't know what to expect of him.

Later that night I wasn't able to sleep that well just thinking about what we did and seeing the faces of the men we have just killed. It was a horrible thing to think about especially since I am only 12 and I have killed several men I dint even know what to think about my self any more and the sad part is that I am happy that I killed them. After all they did kill my brother and burned my house why shouldn't I fell good they brought this problem upon them selves if they didn't kill my brother and burn my house this would have never happened. But since they did I will be scared for ever with the picture...
