In each of these, the colonists found great improvement over Culpeper and Effingham. This romantic story, as also the executive office, were to be at least one hundred miles apart. The result was the loss of the charter. Thus began traffic in slaves that continued till after the Revolution. SIZE> 13He was killed while in captivity by one of his own race, so some authorities claim. In Martin Pring made voyage to New England son of Humphrey Gilbert sailed to Chesapeake Bay and was killed by the Indians.

Thus was founded the first of the permanent settlements which were to multiply and expand, and in three hundred years to grow into the greatest nation of the earth. The speedy downfall of Berkeley, however, had little effect on the colony, for Charles who soon came to the verge of failure, and in the belief that more liberal government would enhance the prospects of success, second charter was applied for and granted.

The people up to this time were almost wholly English, but in several hundred Huguenots made their home in the colony. One of the court favorites to whom the soil of Virginia had been granted, Lord Culpeper, came out as governor, and rapacious tyrant he was. The speedy downfall of Berkeley, however, had little effect on the colony, for Charles who soon came to the throne, was so occupied with troubles at home that he gave less attention to the government of Virginia than the company had done, and popular government continued to flourish.

To their other misfortunes was added continual fear of Indian attacks and owing to their exposure in the swamps and their lack of proper food, they were attacked by fevers. An anonymous pamphlet published in London in gives glowing account of Virginia, describing it as land where there is nothing wanting, land of 15,000 English and negro slaves, 20,000 cattle, many kinds of wild animals, above thirty sorts of fish, farm products, fruits, and vegetables in great quantities, and the like. Berkeley was recalled.

On reaching the American shore the weary voyagers were greeted by the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers. Charles immediately began to appoint to the offices of the colony swarm of worthless place hunters, and some years later he gave away to his court favorites, the Earl of Arlington and Lord Culpeper, nearly all the soil of Virginia, large portion of which was well settled and under cultivation.
