The Pontiac Manuscript
On their return to the village, all the spies reported to their chiefs, point for point, what they had seen, the movements of the English, and about the number of troops whom they had in garrison. On this report, Pontiac sent envoys to the Hurons and to the Foxes, in order to advise them, by war-belts, of what had happened in the fort.
Mackatepelicite, second chief of the Ottawas, and another distinguished Indian", were sent to Take, chief of the bad band of Hurons, who received the war-belts and the runners with joy. Two other distinguished men were sent to Ninivois, chief of the Foxes, who received them with shouts, and promised that he and his village would be ready at the call of their great chief.
