When the Pilgrims came to Plymouth Rock, they were poor and hungry – half of them died within a few months from disease and hunger.

The native people fed them through the winter and taught them how to grow their food. How does Keeler use emotion in this paragraph from "Thanksgiving: A Native American View"?
