It is the wish of our head men and all good
people, to live in peace and friendship with you
and all our red brothers, and it shall be my constant
Care to prevent any more damage being done unto
any of your people, and I hope you will be equally
Watchful and cautious that no mischeif [sic] is done to
any of ours people A good many of our people moving to
Cumberland have lost horses, I wish you to make enquiry
and if any of your people have carried them ^any into your
country, that you will have them sent back again, in
order the owners may get them again -
