The Indians perform a ceremony in your honor. Clothed in loincloths of skin and feathered headdresses, they dance in a circle, rattling gourds to rhythmic singing, stamping, and clapping.

The English are amazed by the precious powdered leaves the Indians burn on roaring fires and smoke in clay pipes. But you recognize that smell—tobacco!

“Soothing uppowoc leaves are healthy for body and soul,” explains Manteo. “You must smoke to cleanse body of evil humors. It quiet storms and cure diseases. You bring much uppowoc back to England.”

You help Grenville’s men load the boats with bales of tobacco. “Raleigh will be delighted!” says Grenville, as he watches the men work.

So that’s the treasure from the New World, you think. Tobacco!

Grenville plans to leave over one hundred men as colonists and to return to England with the rest. You decide to jump in time. The colonists will think you went back on the Tiger, and the crew of the Tiger will think you have stayed.

Jump ahead three months to England to find Sir Walter Raleigh. Click here.
