(C) Laura Secord
Laura Secord is a famous figure in Canada. During the War of 1812, in which Canada and Britain fought against the United States, American soldiers invaded Canada.
A group of American soldiers forced Secord's family to let them stay in their house. →アメリカ兵が家を乗っ取ったのですが、ほとんどの人が誤解します。letの用法が理解できないのです。日本語にはないので知識としては知っていても、体が反応しません
Secord overheard them planning an attack on the British at a place called Beaver Dams.
She traveled 30 kilometers through dangerous forests filled with enemy soldiers to alert the British.
Knowing that the attack was coming helped the British to defeat the Americans. →英語と日本語は決定的に違うのだという良き例です、日本語の発想ではこの英語は絶対出てきません!
For some time, however, a few historians thought the story was partly untrue.
This is because documents written at the time of the battle do not mention Secord.
The historians also believed the British had already been warned by local allies.
However, documents written by the British commander some years later were uncovered in 1959.
These documents confirmed that Secord had indeed brought him the information.
