The Pontiac Manuscript
We shall be obliged to you for that. " All Frenchmen answered that they were perfectly willing. At the end of the council, the French retired, satisfied with their negotiation with Pontiac, and from the same day on the Indian women went to work raising-corn, and several settlers worked the ground for them for sowing it. In the afternoon Pontiac came to give orders all along the shore for the subsistence of all the Indians, and that nothing more should be taken from settlers by force.
