Read the excerpt from the *An Understanding with the Indians (1621)" section from Of Plymouth Plantation
Select the evidence that best explains how the settlers view Squanto compared to other indigenous to people they had encountered.
After these things he returned to his place called Sowams, some 40 miles from this place, but Squanto continued wih then and was
their interpreter and was a special instrument sent of God for their good beyond their expectation. He directed them how to set their
corn, where to take fish, and to procure other commodities, and was also their pilot to bring them to unknown places for their profit,
and never left them till he died. He was a native of this place, and scarce any left alive besides himself. He was carried away with
divers others by one Hunt, a master of a ship, who thought to sell them for slaves in Spain; but he got away for England and was
entertained by a merchant in London, and employed to Newfoundland and other parts, and lastly brought hither into these parts by
one Mr. Dermer, a gentleman employed by Sir Ferdinando Gorges and others for
discovery and other designs in these parts.
