Question

“February 9—We established a regular camp here. This last march has been a very hard one, and only a distance of thirty miles. But it took us from Wednesday to Sunday, through snow, rain, and mud ankle-deep and without rations. Kinston is a perfect ruin, as the Yankees have destroyed everything they could barely touch, but it must at one time have been a very pretty town—but now nothing scarcely but chimneys are left to show how the Yankees are trying to reconstruct the Union.”

— Louis Leon, The Battle of Gettysburg, Diary of a Tar Heel Confederate Soldier

Answer 1

What does Leon say about the town of Kinston?


During the war, the town has remained untouched.
Union soldiers have created a base there.
The town has been severely damaged by Union troops.
Kinston has been fighting for the Union.

Answer 2

@Whitemonsterbunny17 can you help?

Answer 3

what do you think @Snowman16 ?

Answer 4

Thinking?

Answer 5

My guess is B (seems to be the obvious answer) but at the same time D seems to make sense as well.

Answer 6

C. You can tell by crossing out the facts in the story. We know that Leon is a confederate soldier so that crosses out D. A. We know that all that's left of the town is only chimneys. And B is crossed out because Leon is establishing camp there.

Answer 85

To the girl whose beauty is present in all seasons
I tell you why you are beautiful, here are the reasons:
Your beauty extends into the heavens,
It goes on forever and never lessens.
Even when the clouds heighten
You are here and the world brightens.
You are like a fruit that constantly ripens
Your beauty continues to grow no mater what happens.

My fondness for you constantly deepens
Because every time I see you my heart starts to weaken.
You make everything else appear hollow
Where ever you are loveliness is sure to follow.
You shine so bright you cast your own shadow
A beauty that others would love to borrow.
But try as they might your beauty they will never catch
Because something like you they could never match.

Your beauty seems to increase with every breathe
It tests the limits my imagination can stretch.
It makes me question if what I am seeing is real
I only know it is true by the way that I feel.
Your beauty is so vast it can't be concealed
There is no hiding it, your beauty is always revealed.

The power of your beauty is the world's greatest gift
The heaviest boulder it could easily lift.
A girl this perfect I never knew
All that changed the moment I met you.
Heaven on Earth I was not aware
Until I met a girl that was crafted with such care.
You would be the answer to a prayer
If someone asked for something rare with beauty to spare.

If I had a choice I would choose this girl over air
or air can't compare to a girl not found elsewhere.

Answer 86

You must have won an award for that! It was beautiful!

Answer 87
