Due Monday after Thanksgiving

1. Moby Dick reading from your textbook. (You need the actual book to complete this reading. Because it is excerpts from a novel, I can't link to the passages that your book uses.)

2. Letter from Reverend Hooper from "A Minister's Black Veil".

Imagine you are a Reverend Hooper responding to the community's concerns about your wearing of the black veil. Create a supported response that approximately follows the format below.


 Greeting/Salutation

 Overview of your purpose for writing the letter.

 Your acknowledgement of the negative consequences wearing the veil is having on
the community.*

 Your reasons for why you feel it necessary to wear the veil.*

 Summary and acknowledgments

 Your name and information


*Each of these sections should contain multiple quotations from the text to support your claims.
