January 18,1788 -
Susannah Allen - Princes of Wales Susannah Allen
We have been sailing forever, though the Captains says it has been 252 days on these seas, I sometimes think I should not of stolen that dress, but I was just cold and I had holes in my clothes. Today we have been woken abruptly they have seen the new land, the place that I shall be calling home from now on. The Captain has left the ship with some soldiers to look at the new land. We are busy gathering belongings together to go ashore. To have land underneath my feet will be so nice. The Captain has come back and we will not leaving the ship today....I vomit with fear that we will be sailing on for another 252 days...
