John Jr. O'Sullivan, middle/late 19th century


It’s a miracle! I survived the journey! I’m safe and sound and in America- the country where dreams can come true. And they are already about to! I met the most stunning girl I’ve ever seen on the boat that brought me here and were expecting our first baby! I also found a way to support my home, my Ireland. We donate some of our money- I got a very good job here- to the “Fenian Brotherhood”. They send the money to Ireland people there can fight the British. Tomorrow we will invade Canada the second time- we failed the first time, but we won’t give up! Canada is a British colony; if we conquer it, we conquer a part of Britain! I hope I can make my family proud.
