TEXT: “We know our lands are now become more valuable: the white people think we do not
know their value; but we are sensible that the land is everlasting, and the few goods
we receive for it are soon worn out and gone. For the future we will sell no lands but
when Brother Onas [the proprietor of Pennsylvania] is in the country; and we will know
beforehand the quantity of the goods we are to receive. Besides, we are not well used
with respect to the lands still unsold by us. Your people daily settle on these lands, and
spoil our hunting…”
“If you have not done anything, we now renew our request, and desire you will inform
the person whose people are seated on our lands, that that country belongs to us, in
right of conquest; we having bought it with our blood, and taken it from our enemies
in fair war…
It is customary with us to make a present of skins whenever we renew our treaties. We
are ashamed to offer our brethren so few; but your horses and cows have eat the grass
our deer used to feed on. This has made them scarce, and will, we hope, plead in excuse
for our not bringing a larger quantity: if we could have spared more we would have given
more; but we are really poor; and desire you’ll not consider the quantity, but, few as they
are, accept them in testimony of our regard…”
“Our wise forefathers established union and amity between the ve nations [Iroquois
Nation]. This has made us formidable. This has given us great weight and authority
with our neighboring nations. We are a powerful Confederacy, and by your observing
the same methods our wise forefathers have taken you will acquire much strength and
power; therefore, whatever befalls you, do not fall out with one another.”
