My Royal Highness, The colonists refuse to work. They only wish to dig for gold and have neglected all of their other tasks. The colony is quickly running out of food. I have contacted Powhatan and he will supply us with corn. I have set up stern rules that force the colonists to work if they expect to eat. Read the excerpt and identify the letter of the choice that best completes the statement or answers the question. Who could have written this letter? a. Pocahontas c. John Smith b. John Rolfe d. Anne Burras

It’s C. John Smith. It’s not Pocahontas because he’s would not be in touch with the king or care if the colonists lives or died. It’s not John Rolfe because he’s at a different colony. And it’s not Anne Burras Because she wasn’t even around when the colonies where just getting started.
