Note 4 — A Treaty with the INDIANS of the Six Nations.
Reading edition
The two preceding Paragraphs were allowed by the Commissioners of Virginia, whilst they were at Philadelphia, to be very proper to be spoken by the Governor of Pensylvania at the Opening of the Treaty; but taking up an Opinion, from what passed at the first friendly Interview with the Indians, that they would not make any Claim upon Lands within the Government of Virginia, the Governor consented to decline speaking them in the Presence of the Indians.
