The Pontiac Manuscript
Monday, June 13. It rained all day. There was no shooting on either side.
Tuesday, June 14. The day was like the preceding one, until against four o'clock p. m., when the Indians fired some shots to which the Englishmen did not pay any attention.
This day the Indians found out that Mr. Cavallier had liquor. He refused to give them any, which enraged the Indians against him, and they plundered all his liquor, his merchandise, and even his provisions, which he had brought for the return voyage, knowing well that he would have to buy provisions dearer here than at Montreal.
