William Strachey!!!! Who arrived with Gates.... and soon became the colony's new secretary... offered a great example perhaps. Gates, he wrote - "hath seen some of them eat their fish raw, rather then they would go gather stones cast to fetch wood to dress it." hm..Settlers were forced to eat snakes, vipers, rats, mice, musk turtles, cats, dogs, horses, foxes, squirrels and perhaps even raptors until William Strachey arrived.
