European colonists witnessed and wrote about the devastating effects of smallpox on American Indian populations. Following are two descriptions by English colonial leaders in North America during the seventeenth century: "For the natives, they are near all dead of smallpox, so as the Lord hathe [has] cleared our title to what we possess."
—John Winthrop, first governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony

"[Thank God for sending] smallpox, etc. to lessen their numbers: so that the English, in comparison with the Spaniard, have but little Indian blood to answer for."
—John Archdale, governor of South Carolina, 1695–1696
