Liber No. 47
June 7
|
Warriors of the Six Nations, in their travelling through this Prov-
ince to war with the Catawbaws: The latter being in Friendship
with the English as well as the former, we humbly conceive that such
Supply might be taken as Encouragement to such Warring; and as
those People are expert at Hunting, and require little Supply but
what that affords, we therefore do not think proper to interfere, or
agree that any Charge should be brought on the Public for that
Purpose.
Which was read and assented to, and signed by Order of the
House by the Honourable Speaker.
