Reprinted by JARMAN'S, iNCOIEI'dltATKD from the 1SS7 Edition for THE GREEN BOOKMAN Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1887, by WYNDHAM ROBERTSON In the office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington. PREFACE. I offer to the narrow circle it may interest, as well as I have been able to restore it, the Tree of Pocahontas and Rolf e, as it has grown from them as its root to its seventh season (inclu­ sive) of fruitage. I accompany it with illustrative sketches of some of its notable products, within my reach, in order to relieve the blankness of it, by revealing something of its in­ ward succulence as well as its outward form. I have conden­ sed them as much as in my view consisted with my object, knowing how insignificant the whole matter is amid the great surges of the world it is thrown upon. The notice of Poca­ hontas is exceptionally long for reasons apparent on the face of it, involving, as it does, incidentally, the vindication of Captain Smith against the unfriendly strictures of some mod­ ern critics, and which all lovers of justice will thank me for introducing.

  • The First Halls in Virginia
    THE FIRST HALLS IN VIRGINIA In 1584, Queen Elizabeth I gave the English adventurer, Sir Walter Raleigh, permission to establish colonies in America. One of the most intriguing was THE LOST COLONY. They were the third group of Englishmen who tried to make a permanent settlement in this country and this group settled on Roanoke Island on the coast of North Carolina. The first few expeditions failed because the settlers did not have enough supplies, but this last group was supposed to have brought enough to be self sufficient until they could raise their own crops. They landed in 1587, but the next supply ship from England was delayed until 1580. Upon its arrival, the only sign found of the original 117 settlers was the word “croatoan” carved on a tree. The Croatans were the Indians who lived in the area. The mystery of the Lost Colony has never been solved. In 1606, the new king, James I, chartered the Virginia Company of London and in May 1607, a new group of colonists established the first permanent English settlement at Jamestown. They came on the ships Susan Constant, Goodspeed and Discovery. During the next winter, many colonists starved and the rest were ready to give up and return to England. During this time, John Smith made his famous trip up river to meet with Powhatan and the Indian princess, Pocahontas is reported to have saved his life. But springtime brought the arrival of a new fleet bringing supplies and new colonists….and by 1612, these settlers were established enough to begin to raise crops for export…namely tobacco.

  • William Thomas Eldridge
    WILLIAM THOMAS ELDRIDGE J HE character and capacity of men are almost uner­ ringly revealed by their achievements. In rare instances untoward circumstances or calamities against which no foresight can provide, and the results of which no extent of endeavor can avoid, may make the highest measure of efficiency of no avail, but though the standard is often hard, illogical and unjust, yet the fact remains that "success is the test of merit." When a boy of twelve, without means and with only a limited education, starts out upon his career in life handi­ capped by self-assumed family burdens and, without the aid of any political or financial influence, assistance or prestige, rises before he reaches the meridian of life to a recognized position of power and success in the business world, he has avouched him­ self as being dowered with inherent natural capacity for great achievements. On September 9, 1862, William Thomas Eldridge was born in Washington County, Texas, and at twelve years of age became self-supporting. Dependent upon his own resources, whether resting 'neath fortune's favors or her frowns, he was always brave, resourceful and self-reliant. Mere energy, unassociated with intelligence, is not a weapon wherewith success is won, but when it is coupled with a vision which reaches far, imagination that fashions future achieve­ ments, and intelligence which enables the possessor to translate visions into realities, his success is assured. W. T. Eldridge, before he attained his majority, moved to Eagle Lake, Texas, a town surrounded by a marvelously rich territory, and identified himself with every enterprise and interest of the community.

  • Virginia Vetusta, During the Reign of James the First
    > ', I' Virginia Vetusta, DURING THE REIGN OF JAMES THE FIRST. CONTAINING Letters and Documents never before Printed. A SUPPLEMENT TO THE HISTORY OF THE VIRGINIA COMPANY. EDWARD D. NEILL. NEC FALSA DICERE, NEC VERA RETICERE. ALBANY, N. T.: JOEL MUNSELL'S SONS, 82 STATE ST. 6 i' 7 1 915.17 PREFACE. N the belief, that there was need of such a contribution, to the documen- tary history, of the early colonial period of Virginia, this work has been prepared. It is intended to supple- ment the History of the Virginia Corn- pan ij of London, which was published several years ago, and has proved of some value to the students of American history. It is quite remarkable, that for two centuries, historical writers chiefly depended upon a book compiled by an adventurer, for a knowledge of the early English coloniza- tion in North America. The once Deputy Governor of Virginia, George Percy, in a letter, to his brother Henry the 9th Earl of Northumberland, refers to a publication, " wherein the author hath not spared to appropriate many deserts to himself, which he never performed, and stuffed his relations with so many falsities, and malicious detrac- tions." As yet no document of the period of James the First, has been discovered, which tells where the church was situated, m which John Rolfe was married to Pocahontas, and the name of the officiating clergyman. There is iv PREFACE. evidence however, that Rolfe, in 1609, left England with a white wife, and that she gave birth to a daughter at Bermudas, who soon died.
