Friendship and Thanksgiving

---

¹     It was spring in New England. Squanto and Samoset were hunting on the beach. Far ahead they saw a village. As they walked closer they saw a few people. They were surprised to see English people here. They watched the village for several days. Finally they decided to go into the village. Samoset walked into the village and said, "Welcome." Squanto followed him. The Pilgrims were surprised to meet two Indians who spoke English.
 
²     Squanto was a Wampanoag and his friend was a Wabanake. They had been in England. They had learned to speak English. Squanto and Samoset learned about the troubles the Pilgrims had. They lived in dirt-covered huts. There was not enough food. Almost half of the Pilgrims had died during the winter. They needed help. Squanto decided to stay with them.
 
³     During the next few months he taught them how to grow corn and other new vegetables. He brought them deer meat and beaver skins. He helped them build Indian-style houses so they could keep warm. He showed them how to use plants for medicine. He explained how to catch fish and how to use the fish to help the plants grow. He helped them get sap from maple trees. He taught them many other things, too.
