the mighty Indian Chief and Emperor * of Virginia with whom the EnglishTM, Colonists had more adventures than Captain Smith at least found welcome.

In 1585 it was recorded of the people over whom he ruled: "Sf their Tobacco we found plenty, which they esteeme their chiefe Physicke, The example of the Indian Tribes was followed by those who braved their savagery soon, “the very streets of Jamestown were sown with Tobacco" till the enterprising ancestors of the House of Wills began to make their famous Cigarettes from Tobacco cultivated with more care than Indians ever dreamed of. The "Three Castles" Chief among Virgini: Cigarettes-chief in purity, in flavour, in fragrance & in capacity to govern the most fastidious appetite.
