The number which fell by that diabolical conspiracy, as reported by Smith, amounted to 347, and in his Generall Historie, at page 149, he has a list of the numbers murdered at different places.

The total corresponds with the statement in Smith's Historie. The number of deaths in the census list shows a mortality amounting in one year to upwards of twenty per cent. of the whole population, exceeding the number which fell in the massacre by twenty-four. The fullest details of this and many other matters relating to the Colony while under the Virginia Company, can be found more fully shown in Neill's History of the Virginia Company than in any other work we have seen. * * * * * "Here following is set downe a true list of the names of all those that were massacred by the treachery of the Sauages in Virginia, the 22^{nd} March last.
