Dear Mr. Johnny Tremain,
Do whatever you feel is the right thing is for you. If you want to find a new skilled trade and master do that. If you feel comfortable with the Laphams, you stay there. If people start making fun of you and crack jokes on you, ignore them. If you keep ignoring them, they will soon forget you ever had a weird hand. Keep your hand outside, don’t hide it. Feel proud that you were a very strong silversmith that lost his hand due to helping on of the greatest men in America. If you keep it inside all the time, but you accidentally left it outside once, you wouldn’t really want to be in an embarrassing situation. As for Dove, I think he is a poor naturally-dumb silversmith. Leave him alone and forgive him. I bet he feels bad for what he has done to his apprentice friend. To make yourself useful to your community, I think you should find a new skill that will be able to be done with one hand. This is just an advice which I think is the best for you. If you don’t want to follow it, that is up to you. If you have more questions or you want more advice, reply to this letter.
Sincerely,
Abby, Newspaper Advisor
