"For our subsistence here, the means hitherto hath been the yearly access of newcomers, who have supplied all our wants, for Cat

tle, and the fruits of our la[b]ours, as board, pale, smiths work etc: If this should fail, then we have other means which may supply us, as fish, viz: Cod, bass and herring, for which no place in the world exceeds us..Our civil Government is mixed: the freemen choose the magistrates every year...and at 4 courts in the year 3 out of each town (there being 8 in all) do assist the magistrates in making laws, imposing taxes, and disposing of lands: Our Churches are governed by Pastors, Teachers ruling Elders and Deacons, yet the power lies in the whole Congregation and not in the Presbytery [not in a larger council of churches] further than for order and precedence. For the natives, they are near all dead of the smallpox, so the Lord hath cleared our title to what we possess." -Letter written in Boston from John Winthrop to Sir Nathaniel Rich Mounting Conflict with Native Americans by John Winthrop (05/22/1634) Which statement best describes the colonist’s attitude towards Native Americans?

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

The given text is taken from John Winthrop's letter to Sir Nathaniel in 1634. In his letter he described about the rising conflict with the Natives. He described about the deaths inccurred on the Natives because of epidemic of small pox.

Through this letter we can infer that the colonist's attiude towards the Natives was that they felt that had a calling to reach out to the Natives and preach Christianity to them.

This claim is evident in the last line of the letter in which Winthrop writes that the <em>'Lord has cleared their title.'</em>

So, the correct answer is option D.

Aloiza [94]
Roman civilization is associated with the Twelve Tables, an extensive road system, and the poets Horace and Virgil. The twelve tables was actually created in order to make a universal law for consistency. These tables were actually created to protect a certain category of people like the plebeians and patricians. These laws actually were made to protect the poor plebeians from whom many rich people wanted to take away all the money. The road system of the Roman Empire was also very extensively created for use of the Romans.
