C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>July 17\u201d 1898<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dear Mother:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the City of our Country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will write you a few lines. I wrote you from the car, the Penn Limited, hope you have recieved [sic] it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am indeed off for Cuba. Our ship sails from New York Tuesday. I leave Washington tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It hardly seems like Sunday to-day. At 9, this morn I went down to the War department to see the Surgeon General. He was not there, is in NY, but saw the Chief Clerk Jones. he took my name so as to secure my passage to Santiago, and to-morrow I have to be down to give my oath just like a soldier which enlists. I asked if it was binding\u2014and to what extent. Mr Jones said \u201cNo. You can go where you want to. Just notify us.\u201d Only we must be true to the cause &amp; obey orders. That seems real soldier like, don\u2019t it? &amp; how proud papa would be to know it. Well you see mother I am the one that has fathers war spirit, don\u2019t you think I ought to go?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was met by one of the Daughter of Revolution. And taken to Anita Newcomb McGee\u2019s M.D. office and I am her guest while in Washington she is a charming southern lady quite business like. her home is beautiful at Wyoming and Conn. Ave\u2019s. Washington is truly beautiful, but I shall not have time to visit any of the buildings now. it is purely business now and I have lots [?] to do. . . .<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the first excerpt, ask students to tell you everything they can about the writer of the letters, Amy Wingreen, and what she is doing at the time she wrote them. If you need to prompt them, ask simple questions, such as \u201cWhere is she?\u201d \u201cIs that where she lives?\u201d \u201cWhy is she there?\u201d \u201cHow does she feel?\u201d When the information requires an inference, ask students to explain how they made it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, a student might say, \u201cShe\u2019s a nurse.\u201d The answer to \u201cWhy do you think so?\u201d might be, \u201cShe goes to see the Surgeon General. And then she goes to an \u2018M.D. office.\u2019 I think that must be a doctor\u2019s office. And besides, women couldn\u2019t be soldiers then and she says she\u2019s going to \u2018give my oath just like a soldier.\u2019 So, I think the only thing she could be doing is nursing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/publications.newberry.org\/transcribe\/#\/item\/227\/page\/50699\" target=\"_blank\">Letter of August 2, 1898<\/a><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow aligncenter\" data-effect=\"slide\"><div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_container swiper-container\"><ul class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_swiper-wrapper swiper-wrapper\"><li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"821\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-17918\" data-id=\"17918\" src=\"https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_1-821x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_1-821x1024.jpg 821w, https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_1-300x374.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_1-600x748.jpg 600w, https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_1-241x300.jpg 241w, https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_1-768x958.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_1-1232x1536.jpg 1232w, https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_1.jpg 1430w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 821px) 100vw, 821px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"852\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-17919\" data-id=\"17919\" src=\"https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_2-852x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_2-852x1024.jpg 852w, https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_2-300x360.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_2-600x721.jpg 600w, https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_2-250x300.jpg 250w, https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_2-768x923.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_2-1279x1536.jpg 1279w, https:\/\/dcc.newberry.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wingreen_Aug_2.jpg 1430w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 852px) 100vw, 852px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><a class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_button-prev swiper-button-prev swiper-button-white\" role=\"button\"><\/a><a class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_button-next swiper-button-next swiper-button-white\" role=\"button\"><\/a><a aria-label=\"Pause Slideshow\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_button-pause\" role=\"button\"><\/a><div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_pagination swiper-pagination swiper-pagination-white\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Excerpt Transcription<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Siboney, Cuba, Aug 2<sup>nd<\/sup> 1898<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dear Sister Anna:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When I remember how I wanted to go to Cuba or to this far off shore to be valiant in this cause I think that our own fervent wishes some times had better not be granted by a loving and wise providence. Think not that I would shirk when duty calls, for that I truly would not when it is well and advisable. It may be that in after years when a gray-haired woman I may be able to shine around some eager circle of friends that my vanity may be rewarded. And, for that, my experience in a land of desolation [?] may have found a response in pride of my own self. But O we haven\u2019t any thing to work with, no ice, but are promised that an ice plant will be created &amp; we will have it. I was given a little this a.m., as big as a dinner plate, and I have [?]. Truly it is a beautiful thing to have valor and die for one\u2019s county after you know there has [?] some thought about you to live &amp; provision made.&nbsp; I wonder if they know back there in Washington where they wind up with [?] that a little plain ice here might save a mother\u2019s boy, but I can\u2019t dwell on it&#8211;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The facilities for hospital work is so meager and the odds of climate so much against us that we work like soldiers sent to the front without ammunition.

Have them describe the obstacles Amy Wingreen faces. Then discuss the differences between the two excerpts. Ask students to focus on the feelings Amy expresses in each of the two letters. Ask about differences in the way the letters look. Then discuss how Amy\u2019s thoughts and feelings change between the first letter and the second letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Just for Fun!<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>If your students like competition, divide the class into smaller groups and see who can get the most information from the excerpts. Remind students that they will need to give reasons for their inferences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Background<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Amy Eleanor Wingreen was a nurse from Chicago, Illinois, who volunteered to go to Cuba during the Spanish American War. At that time, Cuba had been a Spanish colony for about 400 years, and Spain was determined to keep it. The Cuban people were equally determined to become independent and began to fight against Spain. In the Monroe Doctrine (1823), the United States had declared its opposition to any further colonization by European countries in the Americas but had agreed to respect the colonies that already existed. At the same time, the United States very much wanted Spain out of Cuba, which is only ninety miles away from the coast of Florida. The United States sent a battleship, the USS <em>Maine,<\/em> to Havana Harbor in Cuba to protect U. S. citizens in the country. The stage was set for war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Spanish American War has sometimes been called \u201cthe war that Hearst made.\u201d Newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst decided that promoting war against Spain would help him sell newspapers, so he started a <strong>propaganda<\/strong> campaign that churned up anti-Spanish, pro-war feelings. On February 15, 1898, there was a huge explosion on board the <em>Maine<\/em>, and it sank into the harbor. Despite a lack of evidence, the Hearst newspapers charged that Spain was responsible for the explosion and promoted the rallying cry, \u201cRemember the <em>Maine<\/em>!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Historians now believe that Hearst was only one factor in the overwhelming demand for the United States to declare war on Spain. There was also great sympathy for the Cuban desire for independence from a colonial power. In addition, reports that the Spanish treated Cuban prisoners cruelly outraged the American people. Certainly no one can deny that there was a kind of \u201cwar fever.\u201d On April 21, 1898, the United States declared war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extension Activities<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Have students look at the digitized images of the letters themselves and see whether they agree with the transcriptions.
