From the Diary of "Nathaniel" Kerner

I've been invited to go hunting with my father and Uncle Tom and my cousins. We had to wake up very early. It was a long walk in the woods my Dad and Uncle Tom had to wait for hours. On the way, I saw many geese and then me and dad saw a turkey with a giant head. I took an aim and killed the turkey. It was my first shot and I got it. I was excited and my Dad was proud. We walked home through the woods . It was a long walk. When we got home it was dark. Mother prepared the turkey to roast.
