The battle of Saratoga resulted in a British defeat at the hands of General Horatio Gates. This defeat powered The entire company for freedom and raised morale. our company and the whole army built defenses on Bemis heights just south of Saratoga. General Burgoyne the general of the British attacked. We engaged on Freemans farm we fought and we fought and eventually general Burgoyne did withdraw and decided to wait for reinforcements because there where many casualties. General Burgoyne decided to try one more time o he attacked a second time and was defeated at Bemis heights on October 7 With no means of escape he surrendered. This victory not only re-fired the hopes of the Americans but it did something also that would change the war in a massive way. The French now seeing that they just weren't spending money to lose it but two things a treaty with a new country and also giving the British a massive bloody nose which might be helpful in later engagements.
Puss the cat
Today I read a story about a cat named Puss. One day, Puss had kittens. They were born in the cellar, but then Puss took the kittens up to the attic. But the servant thought that they should be in the cellar. So she took them back to the cellar. But Puss took them back to the attic! This happened a dozen times. Puss left the kittens and came back with an unfamiliar cat that they had never seen. This cat took them into the attic and went away. Then the servant girl left them alone. This story should teach children to help one another all the time. (Typed by mommy.)
