to go this Evening: We rode
about 9 miles through the
white Settlements, and stopping
at a House to enquire the
way, we found it to be the last
belonging to white people:

Here we met with an In-
dian, who knowing, or at least
mistrusting us, by our Appear
ance, shewed great Friendship,
calling us Brothers & Quakers,
and offered to pilot us to the
Indian Settlement; but being
much in Liquor, and having a
Gun and Hatchet, it appeared
some Trial to accept his Of-
fer; more especially as the
Evening was approaching;
