Part of the reply of the Indians of the Six Nations to a speech made by Col. Johnson at Onondago by order of William Clinton, Governor of New York,
Sept. 10, 1753. The Nations promised to leave Oswegalthy (a French settlement with a priest). They didn't see the harm in it, but they would do as
Johnson requested. It was not with the Nations' consent that the French committed hostilities in Ohio. The Nations didn't know what the English and
French intended; they were so hemmed in that there was hardly a hunting place left and hunting was their livelihood. They hardly knew what to think.
