(Found among Major May's papers, April. A. D. Fraser. )
Father, We the chiefs of the Chippewa Nation of Indians, inhabiting and owning the lands on the West and North of the Great Water, called Lake St. Clair, now waite on you, to assure, of our sincere and friendly attachment to the people with whom but very lately we were at war, but that war not brought on by us but instigated by bad council.
