My brother was 1 month from being born my aunt and uncle, who used to live in New York, were eye wittneses. They took a picture of the tower bursting in smoke and people jumping out of windows. They were headed to work when the heard another loud BANG. Another plane suddenly hit the south tower. I cant amagine choosing between being burned alive or jumping out of a window from about a 100 story building. They heard another plane hit the pentagon. The 4th plane people say was headed for the White House but the people on board hijacked the terrorists and crashed the plane in an open field in pennsilvania.

Abraham Lincoln

I am studying Abe Lincoln and this is what I learned.

1.I learned that when Lincoln was about 19 African Americans were slaves in New Orleans.

2.He had many jobs like splitting firewood, shop keeping, and even a postmaster.

3.When Abe was in New Orleans he found out that African Americans were being sold in streets.
