SIR THOMAS DALE.
XIV. Acting Governor.
XIV. March, 1613, to April, 1616.
When Sir Thomas Gates returned to England, in March,
1613, he left the Colony in the keeping of Sir Thomas Dale.
In April of this year John Rolfe married Pocahontas, the
daughter of King Powhatan. This union brought peace
with the Indians, and is mentioned with approbation by
every historian of Virginia. The earliest land laws, though
imperfect and unequal, gave now the cultivator the means of
becoming a proprietor of the soil. These changes were made
by Sir Thomas Dale, who has gained much commendation
for his zeal and good judgment in such matters. He returned
to England in 1616, and took with him Mr. Rolfe and his
wife, Pocahontas.
Sir Thomas Dale died in India in 1620—"whose valor,
having shined in the Westerne, was set in the Easterne
India."
