In 1584 the adventurer obtained a patent from Queen Elizabeth, whose favors his genius readily commanded, and dispatched to the New world the first of bis expedition The little band, under Ama-da- s and Barlowe, sailed through an Inlet on July 4, 15S4, to discover Roanoke Island a spot so favored In climate and setting and so rich In fruits, game, and bird life that it seemed to them a veritable paradise. Back to England they sailed to describe it, taking with them two friendly Indian chiefs ; and also tomaize, pumpkins, bacco, sassnfra squash, grapes, and other fruit Their story created excitement, and In the following year Raleigh sent out Sir Richard Grenville with a second colony, numbering 108 souls, determined to make a permanent home on Roanoke Island and establish plantation They landed on August 17, 1585, and built a log fortification, to which they gave the name The New Fort In Virginia, also spoken of as "Fort Ifalelgh. However, they could not live at pence with the Indian and the entire colony sailed back with Sir Francis Drake In 1580, Just two weeks before the arrival of reinforcement Finding the fort deserted, the new group also returned to England, but left 15 men oo the Island. A third expedition, sent out by Raleigh In 15S7, found the fort demolished and no trace of the 15 men except the bones of one slain by The gruesome discovthe savage ery was a shock to the homeseek-ers- , and they willingly followed the advice of their leader, John White, to forestall future hostility by making friends of the Indian The plan succeeded admirably.

On August 18, 1587, five days after the baptism of the Indian, was born John White's granddaughter, Vlrgiaia Dare, the first English native of America. She wa baptized on the following Sunday. Thus was Elizabethan civilization anchored here by a baby, a mother and the American family. Around little Virginia Dare remained more than a hundred men, women and children.
