Sec. 1:
1. The settlers were finally able to get food when the Indians decided to give them corn and bread. The problems that still remained were that they were once again running out of food and they had no houses to live in. This led to sickness and starvation amongst the settlers.
2. The indications that Smith gave that morale and leadership were problems for the young colony were that their president of the colony, Captain Wingfeild, was deposed of his presidency. Another indication was that the men in the colony would rather starve and rot with idleness than be persuaded to do anything for their own relief.
Sec. 2:
1. Smith and the other leaders had skilled workers such as carpenters, blacksmiths, and sailors at their disposal.
2. A great percentage of the colonists had little to contribute to the development of the colony because they were mostly poor and they did not have any experience.
Sec. 3:
1. Powhatan said that if the Indians hid in the woods, then they would famish because they had wronged their friends.
2. Powhatan hoped to have a peaceful and civil relationship with the Jamestown settlers. He did not see any reason for the settlers to act hostile and start a war between them. Powhatan believed it would be much simpler if the settlers came to them in a friendly manner.

2. The colonists believed that
