Edward Waterhouse's shocking report to other horrified Londoners referred to the first massive terrorist attack against English-speaking civilians in American history. The "Barbarous Massacre" on Friday, 22 March 1622, was the most lethal day ever experienced by British colonists in peacetime, as Powhatan warriors slaughtered almost 30 percent of Virginia's entire white population, including at least 35 women and 30 children; destroyed many buildings and other property; and threatened the survival of England's embryonic empire on this continent. "Besides them they killed," wrote one of the nine hundred English survivors, the Indians "burst the heart of all the rest." After fifteen years of tortured progress, Jamestown was "brought down again to the ground" in only a few hours and was once again like a "Child . . . exposed in the Wilderness to extreme danger, . . . fainting and laboring for life."
