.... character. Mother Teresa, someone who helped the poor and dying across the globe. Sounds like two heroes to me, right? But still I was perplexed. There had to be more. So, Cyrano de Bergerac...hmmm...from my first readings he just sounded like this eccentric fellow with a large schnozzle. Why was he even put on the list of heroes? I decided maybe the techniques learned in class could possibly help me out with my dilemma. I read again. I looked over notes again. I read again. I looked over notes again.

Then to further his aggression, he campaigned on to Pensacola where he attacked the Spaniards there that gave permission to the British enturpenurs to sell guns to the Seminoles.

His family lived there for the first three years of Jimmy's life, and then moved to Archery, Georgia, just outside of Plains.
