             in fending Belts to all Nations in that Country, to
             encourage them to drive the English out of the Country.
                             I shall be able to write Your Excellency more
             fully on this Subject from Scioto, when I see the Belts
             and Speeches.
                            As I am just setting off and have not time
             to write Sir William Johnson, Request the favor of Your
             Excellency to write him the purport of this Letter.
                                                      I Am,
                                                                &ca
                                                    /Signed/ Geo. Croghan.
