INDIANS POISONED AT PEACE MEETING:
In May 1623, (Captain) William Tucker led English soldiers from Jamestown to meet with Indian leaders here in Pamunkey territory.
The Indians were returning English prisoners taken in March during leader Opechancanough's orchestrated attacks encroaching English settlements along James River.
At the meeting, the English called for a toast to seal the agreement, gave the Indians poisoned wine, and then fired upon them, injuring as many as 150, including Opechancanough and the chief of the Kiskiack.
The English had hoped to assassinate Opechancanough, who was erroneously reported as having been slain; they succeeded in 1646.

INDIAN TREATY OF 1646:
Shortly after paramount chief Opechancanough's 1644, attacks on English settlers in response to the settlers' encroachment on Indian lands, he was captured and put to death at Jamestown.
His successor Necotowance signed a treaty, ratified by the Grand Assembly in October 1646, acknowledging the Indians' subjection to the English Crown and agreeing to pay a yearly tribute.
A provision of the treaty that allowed the Indians sole use of the land north of the York River was broken later in the same Assembly session, when another law was passed that opened the treaty land to English claims.
