It's all over!

Hi it's the local priest on Mr.Riley's home. I'm sad to announce that a local slave named Ben has died. He was tortured by Mr. Sims for not giving the warabouts of some of his friends. I felt lots of sorrow for the young man who was whipped to death. Whoever gets this message please tell his friends Liza, Adam, Jullily, and Lester who should know how this amazing man died.

Sorrow

Hi my name is Ben if you have heard of me you'd know my story by now. But you probably don't know my whole story. The truth is I haven't been that brave lately. My friends have left to Canada while I have stayed here in Mississippi. I feel hurt and sorrow. I just couldn't leave and put my life on the line like that.
