THICK-SET, bushy-bearded man—born leader, peerless soldier of fortune and amazing Nar—met an Indian girl early in the seventeenth century, Theirs {s perhaps the first recorded “Love Story of Great Americans.” =. The man—Capt. John Smith—gave the following version of thelr first meeting—a version that many historians consider false, but that bas be- come a part of history: (Smith, by the way, had come to Virginia as leader of an English colony which was largely made up of down-at-hee! gallants, criminals and well-born loafers. The emigrants wanted to look for gold—where there was no gold. Smith forced them to work, He made them bulld huts and cultivate the soil. They hated him. As soon as he had founded his colony at Jamestown he went inland to explore, and there he was captured by Indians.) | Here {s his story of the affair: ' He was brought before the Indian “emperor,” Powhatan, who ordered him put to death. Smith's head was laid on a stone and two warriors stood above him with brandished clubs to dash out his — brains. Before they could strike there was a com- A Historic motion In the crowd around Powhatan, Rescue. The “emperor's” daughter, Pocahontas, dashed ewww» forth and flung herself on Smith's body, shielding his head with her arms, She entreated her father to spare the white man, and Powhatan, who could refuse her nothing, consented. Thus, if Smith's story ts true, the English captain and the Indian Princess first became acquainted. It is certain that she met him while he was a guest or prisoner in her father’s lodge and that she was at once fascinated by him. When Smith returned to Jamestown Pocahontas fol- lowed, paying many visits to him there. | She showed no interest in the other settlers, But when she learned how keenly interested Smith was in the colony's welfare she did all in her power for it. More than once when the settlers were on the verge of starvation she and her people saved them by bringing to Jamestown vast quantities of | grain and venison, Once when Powhatan was planning a secret attack on the colony she sped through the forest lone and by night to warn Smith. To the Indian girl Smith seemed more Ike a god than a man. she made no secret of her devotion to him. How for Smith's return of this love was due to a desire for the colony's success cannot be known, At | all events, after a year or two of almost constant companionship with Pocahontas he sailed away from Virginiu. There is no record that he tried to take her along. Soon afterward came a false report that Smith wr was heartbroken. Then the English captured her dead. Pocahontas they decided t strengthen their alliance with the Indians by mar- senmmnnnnnnnnnnane® rying her to a colonist named Rolfe, A Strange Rolfe took her to England, where she was i Meeting. presented at court. There she came face to face fn owith Smith, whom she had believed des At sight of her old-time lover she fainted, On her recovery she threw her arms about Smith, kiveine him, weeping hysterically over him and showering upon him a thousand love names, As this scene occurred not only in public but In the presence of royalty, Smith was terribly embarrassed. He soothed the excited girl as best he _ could and sought to quiet her protestations of love. Then he handed her | over to the seandalized Rolfe. Pocahontas realized the miserable truth. Smith still lived and she was married to another man. Her interest in life was gone.
