[LAURENS]
I may not live to see our glory

[ELIZA]
Alexander, there´s a letter for you from South Carolina

[LAURENS]
But I will gladly join the fight

[HAMILTON]
It´s from John Laurens. I´ll read it later

[ELIZA]
No, it´s not

[LAURENS]
And when our children tell our story

[HAMILTON]
Will you read it?

[LAURENS]
They´ll tell the story of tonight

[ELIZA]
"On Tuesday, the twenty-seventh, Lieutenant Colonel John Laurens was killed in a gunfight against British troops in South Carolina. These troops had not yet received word from Yorktown that the war was over. He´s buried here until his family can send for his remains. As you may know, Lieutenant Colonel Laurens was engaged in recruiting three thousand men for the first all-black military regiment. The surviving members of this regiment have been returned to their masters."

[LAURENS]
Tomorrow there´ll be more of us

[ELIZA]
Alexander, are you alright?

[HAMILTON]
I have so much work to do
