Readers can infer that the survival and success of the colony is largely due to Squanto’s assistance.

Which detail from the passage best supports this inference?


“He was a native of this place, and scarce any left alive besides himself.”

“He told them also of another Indian whose name was Squanto, a native of this place, who had been in England and could speak better English than himself.”

“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.”

“Who, about four or five days after, came with the chief of his friends and other attendance, with the aforesaid Squanto.”
