A message to Garcia

In class today we went over A Message To Garcia. It took place during the Spanish and American war. The president at this time was McKinley, and he was making critical decisions at the time. He had sent out a guy named Rowan to find Garcia to give him a message. But all the people trying to do this would fail. But McKinley trusted Rowan to get this letter to Garcia. It was hard work finding Garcia and they didn't have computer so they needed to use encyclopedias to find Garcia. Rowan dissapered trying to do this and that was another fail for getting this letter to him. The letter was suppose to tell Garcia about cooperating with the Americans over the Spanish. And so as you can tell people were so lazy that you couldn't trust them to give a letter to one guy. But in class we were wondering if Garcia even excisted and if they were just gonna find him not there and waste there time. Apparantly Garcia was in Cuba and that was far to give the letter. This stuff we went over was pretty interesting and i liked it.
