he came to America with no intentions to hurt any of the native Americans I don't even think he knew there were native Americans there CORRECTION Smith came on the second ship to Jamestown and for a short time was military commander of the colony. The colony was located in a Native American empire of 14,000 so he knew there were Native Americans. He was very unpopular with the men of his command. In fact, he was so unpopular they tried to kill him. While sleeping gun powder was sprinkled on him and lit. He got severe burns and had to go home. He was a rake and lied about what he did in his book.
