This man brought a message from Brant to the Six nation Indian
mentioning he had been among the westren tribes
that they had of late a great Dele of Troubles
that the British stood by & would not help the[m]
I wished they had taken their advice but i[t]

United States would agree to the line they [had]
made when they were to gather there woul[d be]
peace & desired there might be a Treaty next
Spring at Buffelon Crick, wish them to

British for not takeing the advice
