Bradford’s description of the peace treaty with Massasoit and the help they received from Squanto reveals much about the Pilgrim’s desperate situation in New England: After these things he returned to his place called Sowams, some forty mile from this place, but Squanto continued with them, and was their interpreter, and was a special instrument send 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. According to Bradford, to what did the Pilgrims attribute his aid, and what kind of aid did he tender to them? What seems to have been Squanto’s motivation to help the Pilgrims?
