FOOTNOTES:

[1] Alluding to an ineffectual attempt made during the war in 1793, when six Friends, as before stated, attended with the commissioners of the United States.

[2] A British agent for Indian affairs resident in Canada.

[3] I apprehend there is some mistake in the account given, of the quantity of land possessed by Cornplanter. By the act of assembly, it appears six hundred acres was the quantity located at that place.--ED.
