When Smith arrived in Jamestown he found 37 men alive out of 107 that had first settled there. A lack of food, disease, a fort on swampy land and bad water were the problems he found. He took control of the colony and made the rule that if you didn't work you didn't eat. This proved very unpopular so after a while there someone tried to murder him. While he was sleeping they poured gunpowder over him and set it on fire. He was burned and was forced to return to England. He may have met Pocahontas while there, but the story about her saving his life didn't come out until 1624 in a book about him and Jamestown. There is no historical record of this having taken place and she was dead by 1617 and buried in England.
