A history of Virginia for boys and girls . hite got on a ship and startedback to England. He had to go back for morefood and other supplies. He expected to returnto Roanoke Island soon ; but in those days, whenships had to depend on the winds, it often took sixmonths or longer to make a trip across the At-lantic and back. Governor White did not get back to RoanokeIsland for nearly four years. A war in Europebetween England and Spain had delayed him morethan the uncertain winds. When he returnedto the island no Virginia Dare could he find.Indeed, he could find none of the colonists he hadleft there. All were gone. Grass was growing inthe fort. Houses were empty. Some books andpictures, torn and soiled, were scattered here andthere. The only thing he could see that hethought might guide him to his lost friends andlittle Virginia Dare was a strange word cut VIRGINIA AND VIRGINIA DARE 7 into the bark of a large tree. This word was Croatan. Croatan was the name of another island thatlay forty or fifty miles south of Roanoke Island.. NO VIRGINIA DARE COULD HE FIND Governor White tried to reach Croatan, but theship fell into a storm on the way and was delayed. 8 A HISTORY OF VIRGINIA After several days the captain of the ship lost cour-age or quarreled with Governor White and turnedthe ship toward England.

Shemay have been murdered by the Indians ; or shemay have grown up and lived long among thesavages of some dusky tribe. Nobody knows. But the state of North Carolina has honored thememory of the Dares. As the state is laid outto-day, Roanoke Island forms a part of DareCounty; and every year the people who live onthe island keep a holiday in honor of VirginiaDar
