Brothers the Quakers
Listen now to what
I am going to say to you. You know brothers
the read people are poor, the great spirit has
made them of another language, so that it is
very hard for us to understand one another
plainly, as their is no person here that can
interpret very well. Brothers, we take
great pains to settle the proposals you made to
us but we differ in opinion, and we must take
great pains to have everything complete.

Brothers. we suppose the reason you came here
was to help poor Indians some way or other, and
you wish the chiefs to tell their warriers not to go
on so bad as they have done; and you wish us
to take up work like the white people now
brothers, some of your sober men will take up wo-
rk, and do as you say. and if they do well,
then will your young men stay longer, but some
others will not mind what you say.
