The indians were this day in
council on the business we laid before them
they divers sent their deputies for
us to explain some parts of the business we
had opened to them; One of their questions
was how they should draw their plows sing
they had no oxen to draw them with
we let them know we had seen two hor-
ses running about their town, and that was
enough to draw one plough, and if they
would save some of the mony they were to
get of the white people they might buy a
pair of oxen. and they would draw another
plough; and that our young men would
lend them their horses sometimes that we
did not expect any great matters at first
and that these would do to make a
beginning. With this answer they
appeared to be pretty well satisfyed
