Mrs Langsworth's Children were killed & the Murtherers
were delivered they found a Man Indian dead in the path killed
by the English for which they have no Satisfaction & desire it
may be Considered
Your hogs & Cattle injure Us You come too near Us to live
& drive Us from place to place
We can fly no farther let us know where to live & how to be
secured for the future from the Hogs & Cattle
Heads of Choatick's Speech
Let all the fellows that carry tales on both sides be bound &
delivered on both sides if they cannot prove their Allegation
to be punished As they treat the English friendly so let not
the Indians be beaten without Cause when they come amongst
the English & let their Priviledge of hunting be preserved as
also fishing & crabbing
They desire to have the Liberty to send us their Wives &
Children amongst Us in case of danger, & that the English will
furnish them with Arms & Ammunition & they will Endeavour
to defend both them & Us against the Janedeas &c. And fur-
ther that the Governour will be pleased to fix the place whither
they shall bring their Wives & Children to in Case of Danger
& thither they promise to bring them.
They own the Power that Kittamagund gave to the English
to choose the Emperour of Piscattaway & Submitt to it
Isapatawn for the King of Nangemaicks Son
That the King lately dead willed that his People should live
under the Governour at Nanjemy & desired him to protect
them upon the Land where they are & not to put them under
any Indian whatsoever & that the People there desire to have
their Kings Will fulfilled, & that if the Governour think fit they
desire to have the King's Son here present Necatahamon to be
King
And present the Governr with Roanoke to the End he pro-
tect them
Emmerson hath thrown down the Fence made by the Indians
at Nanjemy about their Corn by which Eight men have lost
their whole Crop of Corn for which they Complain & desired to
be secured for the future
