The Pontiac Manuscript
At seven o'clock p. m. news came that the Indians had been to the houses of all the settlers on all the shores and had carried off to their camp all the old men and heads of families, to be present at a council which should be held, and in this council they wanted to oblige the Frenchmen to take up arms against the English. During the night it was known that the Indians, after the council which I am going to describe hereafter, had sent home all the fathers of families and the old men without having done them
any harm.
