1793 north to Lake Erie, this line is the western boundary of Pennsylvania as claimed under the charter given by the King of England to your antient friend William Penn, of this sale made by the Wyondot and Delaware Nations to the state of Pennsylvania, we have never heard any complaint.

 Brothers, we are on this Occasion obliged to make a? speech, we again desire you to hear us patiently, the business is of the highest importance, and a great many words are necessary fully to explain it, for we desire you may perfectly understand us, and there is no danger of your forgetting what we say, because we will give you our speech in writing. 
     Brothers, we have explicitly declared to you, that we cannot now make the Ohio River the boundary between us, this agrees with our speech to your deputies at Niagara that in order to establish a just & permanent peace, some concessions would be necessary on your part as well as on ours.
 Brothers, The concessions which we think necessary on your part are, that you yield up, and finally relinquish to the United States some of the lands on your side of the Ohio, The United States wish to have confirmed all the lands ceded to them by the treaty of Fort Harmers and also a small tract of land at the Rapids of the Ohio claimed by General Clarke, for the use of himself and his warriors, and in consideration there of, the United States would give such a large sum in money or goods, as we never given at any one time for the quantity of Indian Lands, since the white people first set their feet on the Island, and because those lands did every year did furnish you with skins and furs, with which you bought cloathes, and other necessaries, the United States will now furnish you the like constant supplies, and therefore besides the great sum to be delivered at once, they will every year deliver you a large quantity of such goods, as are be suit?
