WM. EUSTIS, SECY OF WAR, TO THE INDIANS, OCT, 8, 1811.5
sent by the Pattawomie who calls himself a prophet. Beware of the man. He is not good, lie has already caused the destruction of many young men belonging to you and other tribes. All who go to him with arms will be destroyed.
My Childern. Your Great Father takes you again by the hand he bids you farewell; and he commands me to give you clothing some gun-powder and other things in token of his good will
