tell him hee lyed, Againe hee said It is very troublesome
Captaine Fleete should belye mee thus It is not to bee beleived
what Captaine Fleete doth said, hee doth lye soe much And hee
wondered why wee should take notice what Captaine Fleete
said in that kinde, whereuppon it was told them that this
gentleman of Yawacomico did not knowe Captaine Fleete soe
well as wee of Virginia becaus they were lately come.
Then all the Councellors and Indians present said, when
they came to speake with Captaine Fleete, all the lyes would
redound uppon him and lye uppon him as high as his necke,
and at last breake his necke.
Then Errammahonda asked the king of Pascatacon leave
to speake one thinge which Captaine Fleete had said lately
at Pascatacon in his hearing, Att first the Kinge said let
it alone, then presently the Kinge of Pascaticon said to the
Kinge of Patuxon doe you tell it who replyed I will meddle
with that wherein Captaine Fleete hath belyed mee, and nothing
else, At last the Kinge of Pascaticon said to Errammahonda,
I care not if you tell it, Then Errammahonda said that Captaine
Fleete bad him tell Captaine Clayborne that the greate men of
Pasbehayes would kill him and that it would bee in vaine for
him to runne away any where, for that if hee goe to the Isle of
Kent the greate men can fetch him there, And if he runne
away any where among the Indians I will have six Indians for
tenne armes length of Roanoake a peice to fetch him to mee
for I am hee that am appointed kinge of Pascatacon
confessed that Captaine Fleete did bid him take heed that he
should have a care hee came not abourd Captaine Clayborne's
boate becaus Capt: Clayborne would take him prisoner and
