common property of the whole you take the tribes aside and advise them not to come into this measure You
want by your distinctions of Indian tribes, in allotting to each a particular, to make them war with each other. You
never see an Indian endeavor to make the white people do this. You are continually driving the red people, when at
last you will anve them onto the great lake, where they can neither stand nor work.
