We are visited every day more or less
by the Indians, who are much
pleased
viewing several kinds of our goods: which
satisfaction is
increased by our giving them
some small matters. We showed
them
Howell's map of Pennsylvania
which they were much diverted, and seem-
ed to understand it pretty well, particularly
the Alleghany river, and the large streams
which run into it.
We have received of Cornplanter
we came into this country, about fifty pounds
of flour, besides several days board for two of
us, for which he refuses taking any pay.
We therefore this day made him a present
of 6 Bandana handkerchiefs, one
for his wife,
and one for each of his five daughters, Three
fine
tooth combs, two pocket knives one
paper of needles, 6 thimbles and 2
1/4 yds. of
cloth to his son Henry
attended on us as interpreter.
