What do you think about our news today? Write to us, and you could be published in our next issue. Please include five sous with your letter.
Yesterday afternoon an angry mob of around 600 Parisians attacked perhaps one of the largest symbols of our King's power, the Bastille. As we all know, King Louis XVI has raised our taxes once again, to make up for the Thirteen Colony's war against Britain, as he says. Though his wife, our Queen, Marie Antoinette has surely worsened our fate with her lavish spending on luxuries we can only dream of.
July 15, 1789
WEATHER REPORT: We're sorry to say, but it looks like it's going to be another hot week with little to no rain.
I appreciated how the cost of bread - and how hard it is to obtain - was printed in your last newspage. We are going through very tough times. You also included a list of shops with the cheapest bread, and though I realize this was with good intention, most of these stores are sold out because of their new publicity. - Gabriel Bellenger

As we all know, recently, The Estates General meeting was held for the first time in 170 years, and our group of people representing the Third Estate swore the Tennis Court Oath, in a rather impromptu decision to not go into the meeting hall. We are not going to let the clergy and nobility rule our lives anymore; we are going to take charge of our own destiny, and we will not run away.

FOR SALE: Mattieu Dupont is selling two Nubian goats, both male. Violin; barely used, great shape. Contact Melanie Hugo for details.
Everyone seems to blame our famine on Marie Antoinette. Though I agree that her excessive spending on luxuries is not helping our situation, she is not the only one to blame. I believe that most all of the clergy, nobles, and royalty are to blame. - anonymous
