Dear Journal
My name is Thomas Dickson, I'm really scared of going to New South Wales.There could be dangerous animals that could attack us. I am 22 years old, I am a crossing boy. My family was very sad to see me leave. I stole a horse worth about forty shillings. I was sentenced to seven years transportation. My life is nice in some ways but mostly horrible. I never get clean water. I hate being poor. I could be in luck and New South Wales wont be that bad but I dont want to leave my wonderful family !
