chapter v. of his _Virginia Company in London_, 1869, which was also

printed separately, and in chapter iv. of his _English Colonization in America_. He goes farther than Mr. Deane, and, following implicitly Strachey’s statement of an earlier marriage for Pocahontas, he impugns other characters than Smith’s, and repeats the imputations in his _Virginia and Virginiola_, p. 20. There is a paper on the marriage of Pocahontas, by Wyndham Robertson, in the _Virginia Historical Reporter_, vol. ii. part i. (1860), p. 67. (Cf. Field’s _Indian Bibliography_, p. 383.) See Neill’s view pushed to an extreme in _Hist. Mag._ xvii. 144. A writer in the _Virginia Hist. Reg._ iv. 37, undertook to show that Kokoum and Rolfe were the same. Matthew S. Henry, in a letter dated Philadelphia, Sept. 11, 1857, written to Dr. Wm. P. Palmer, then Corresponding Secretary of the Virginia Historical Society, gives us the Lenni Lenape signification of Kakoom or Kokoum, as “‘to come from somewhere else,’ as we would say, ‘a foreigner.’”

[313] [See Maxwell’s _Hist. Reg._ ii., 189; and a note to the earlier part of this chapter. Her story is likely still to be told with all the old embellishment. See Prof. Schele de Vere’s _Romance of American History_, 1872, ch. iii. A piece of sculpture in the Capitol at Washington depicts the apocryphal scene. W. G. Simms urges her career as the subject for historical painting (_Verses and Reviews_). She figures in more than one historical romance: J. Davis’s _First Settlers of Virginia_, New York, 1805-6, and again, Philadelphia, 1817, with the more definite title of _Captain Smith and the Princess Pocahontas_; Samuel Hopkins, _Youth of the Old Dominion_. There are other works of fiction, prose and verse, bearing on Pocahontas and her father, by Seba Smith, L. H. Sigourney, M. W. Moseby, R. D. Owens, O. P. Hillar, etc.—ED.]

[315] Its place is sometimes supplied by a fac-simile engraved for W. Richardson’s _Granger’s Portraits_, 1792-96. The original Mataoka or Pocahontas picture was neither in the Brinley, the Medlicott, nor the Menzies copies, and is not in the Harvard College, Dowse, Deane, or in most of the known copies.

The Crowninshield copy (_Catalogue_, no. 992) had the original plate; and that copy, after going to England, came back to America as the property of Dr. Charles G. Barney, of Virginia, and at the sale of his library in New York in 1870 it brought $247.50; but it is understood that it returned to his own shelves. The Carter-Brown (1632) edition, the Barlow large-paper copy, and one copy at least in the Lenox Library have it.

[316] There exists at Heacham Hall, Norfolk, the seat of the Rolfes, a portrait thought to be of Henry, the son of Pocahontas. This is the painting mentioned by error in _Mass. Hist. Soc. Proc._ xiii. 425, as of Pocahontas.

[317] Grigsby’s authority for his statements was the son of Sully, who also painted an ideal portrait of Pocahontas. Copies of a picture of Pocahontas by Thomas Sully, and of another painted by R. M. Sully are in the Collections of the Virginia Historical Society, and it is palpable that they are both mere fanciful representations. The original of the picture which was at Cobb’s, the writer was informed by the late Hon. John Robertson, a descendant of Pocahontas, represented “a stout blonde English woman,”—a description which does not agree with the picture by Robert M. Sully purporting to be a copy.

The late Charles Campbell, author of a _History of Virginia_, stated that Thomas Sully was allowed to take the original from Cobb’s (it being little valued), and that after cleaning it he altered the features and complexion to his own fancy. Of the picture by Thomas Sully he states: “The portrait I painted and presented to the Historical Society of Virginia was copied, in part, from the portrait of Pocahontas in the ‘Indian Gallery,’ published by Daniel Rice and Z. Clark. In my opinion the copy by my nephew [Robert M. Sully] is best entitled to authenticity.”

[319] [Force copied from the _Richmond Inquirer_ of September 1804, where Jefferson had printed it from a copy in his possession. Another copy was followed in the _Virginia Evangelical and Literary Magazine_ in 1820, which is the source from which it was again printed in the _Virginia Hist. Reg._, iii. 61, 621.—ED.]

Articles of peace were signed by John West and the native kings, May 29, 1677 (_Brinley Catalogue_, 5484.)

Mrs. Aphra Behn made the events rather distantly the subject of a drama, _The Widdow Ranter_; and in our day St. George Tucker based his novel of _Hansford_ upon them. See Sabin, ii. 4372.—ED.

[322] In 1722 the book was reissued in London, revised and enlarged as the author had left it, and this edition is now worth £10 10_s._ It was again reprinted in 1855, edited by Charles Campbell. (Sabin, vol. ii.; Brinley, 3719; Muller, 1877, no. 318, etc.) Jones’s _Present State of Virginia_, 1724, may also be noted.

[323] [Thomas Hollis wrote in the copy of Keith which he sent to Harvard College in 1768, “_The Society_, the glorious society, _instituted in London for promoting Learning_, having existed but a little while, through scrubness of the times, no other than PART I. of this history was published, and it is very scarce.”—ED.]
