Note 53 — Chapter II · 1608-1763. FRANCE AND ENGLAND IN AMERICA.
Reading edition
For an account of Priber, see Adair, 240. I have seen mention of this man in contemporary provincial newspapers, where he is sometimes spoken of as a disguised Jesuit. He took up his residence among the Cherokees about the year 1736, and labored to gain them over to the French interest.
