the_o indian_n affirm_v that_o the_o indian_n say_v they_o be_v encourage_v by_o some_o gentleman_n in_o boston_n vigorous_o to_o prosecute_v the_o war_n be_v mere_a invention_n and_o a_o most_o false_a and_o groundless_a imputation_n unless_o by_o such_o gentleman_n in_o boston_n be_v mean_v foster_n and_o waterhouse_n two_o of_o their_o own_o party_n who_o be_v of_o the_o conspiracy_n to_o

according_o if_o the_o revolution_n at_o boston_n have_v not_o happen_v the_o force_n be_v draw_v off_o from_o the_o eastern_a part_n garrison_n desert_v and_o they_o supply_v with_o ammunition_n

to_o renew_v their_o peace_n since_o to_o the_o indian_n knowledge_n there_o have_v be_v no_o war_n between_o they_o and_o that_o they_o have_v not_o only_o by_o word_n but_o by_o action_n manifest_v their_o good_a heart_n to_o the_o english_a particular_o to_o new-england_n since_o they_o have_v by_o mean_n of_o the_o government_n of_o new-york_n engage_v themselves_o in_o the_o last_o indian_a war_n for_o their_o interest_n against_o the_o indian_n their_o enemy_n by_o which_o mean_v much_o christian_a blood_n be_v save_v although_o but_o little_a notice_n of_o their_o service_n have_v be_v take_v by_o those_o who_o have_v the_o benefit_n thereof_o that_o they_o be_v then_o in_o war_n against_o the_o french_a and_o will_v not_o increase_v the_o number_n of_o their_o enemy_n until_o they_o certain_o know_v that_o those_o eastern_a indian_n assist_v the_o french_a against_o they_o this_o be_v the_o sum_n and_o truth_n of_o that_o negotiation_n which_o cost_v we_o above_o four_o hundred_o pound_n expense_n and_o what_o advantage_n or_o credit_n we_o be_v like_a to_o get_v thereby_o all_o man_n may_v judge_v we_o of_o new-england_n i_o find_v be_v too_o apt_a to_o boast_v of_o what_o we_o neither_o understand_v n●r_n have_v any_o assurance_n of_o and_o build_v too_o much_o on_o mistake_v notion_n and_o false_a ground_n as_o in_o this_o case_n of_o the_o indian_n 9_o the_o

story_n take_v out_o of_o some_o history_n of_o the_o spanish_a indies_n and_o only_o insert_v by_o the_o author_n to_o enlarge_v his_o strange_a news_n and_o fill_v up_o his_o paper_n but_o it_o must_v be_v admit_v that_o with_o those_o mohawk_n and_o other_o indian_n several_a french_a priest_n and_o jesuit_n have_v dwell_v and_o inhabit_v and_o endeavour_v to_o propagate_v their_o religion_n among_o they_o which_o be_v more_o than_o any_o of_o our_o english_a priest_n or_o teacher_n have_v do_v for_o although_o by_o the_o piety_n of_o our_o forefather_n considerable_a sum_n of_o money_n have_v be_v give_v and_o a_o corporation_n erect_v for_o the_o evangelize_a of_o the_o indian_n in_o new-england_n a_o very_a small_a progress_n have_v be_v hitherto_o make_v therein_o and_o now_o scarce_o any_o endeavour_n or_o proper_a mean_n use_v at_o all_o for_o their_o conversion_n though_o large_a sum_n of_o money_n be_v annual_o send_v over_o and_o dispose_v of_o among_o the_o brotherhood_n on_o that_o pretence_n which_o the_o government_n or_o those_o chief_o concern_v therein_o will_v do_v well_o to_o inquire_v after_o now_o there_o be_v so_o many_o of_o that_o country_n here_o capable_a to_o give_v a_o account_n thereof_o that_o so_o good_a and_o pious_a a_o undertake_n may_v be_v neither_o neglect_v nor_o pervert_v 10._o it_o be_v too_o true_a that_o great_a devastation_n have_v be_v make_v in_o new-england_n by_o the_o indian_n since_o the_o revolution_n there_o which_o those_o that_o subvert_v their_o majesty_n government_n have_v be_v and_o be_v the_o sole_a occasion_n of_o and_o that_o the_o fort_n of_o pemaquid_n a_o considerable_a frontier_n next_o the_o french_a have_v be_v take_v the_o whole_a county_n of_o cornwall_n great_a part_n of_o the_o province_n of_o maine_n and_o part_n of_o the_o province_n of_o hampshire_n be_v destroy_v and_o desert_v beside_o other_o mischief_n in_o the_o massathusets_n colony_n within_o thirty_o mile_n of_o boston_n the_o loss_n and_o damage_n of_o all_o which_o when_o i_o leave_v new_a england_n be_v not_o compute_v at_o less_o than_o one_o hundred_o thousand_o pound_n beside_o the_o loss_n of_o above_o three_o hundred_o of_o their_o majesty_n subject_n and_o the_o whole_a fish_n mast_n and_o lumber_v trade_n and_o all_o outpart_n force_v to_o garrison_n but_o that_o so_o considerable_a a_o force_n as_o be_v pretend_v be_v send_v out_o against_o the_o say_a indian_n be_v a_o misinformation_n for_o there_o be_v not_o one_o man_n send_v from_o connecticott_n last_o summer_n nor_o have_v they_o resolve_v to_o be_v concern_v in_o the_o war_n tho_o much_o persuade_v thereto_o by_o those_o of_o the_o massathuset_n and_o when_o i_o leave_v those_o part_n and_o for_o some_o month_n before_o there_o be_v not_o a_o soldier_n out_o and_o they_o have_v reason_n enough_o to_o apprehend_v a_o attack_z from_o the_o french_a as_o well_o as_o indian_n in_o the_o spring_n so_o soon_o as_o the_o river_n be_v open_a and_o the_o snow_n off_o the_o ground_n which_o by_o their_o present_a ill_a management_n of_o affair_n want_v of_o authority_n and_o the_o many_o division_n among_o they_o they_o will_v not_o be_v in_o a_o posture_n to_o resist_v nor_o to_o defend_v and_o secure_v themselves_o and_o country_n 11._o i_o do_v hear_v before_o i_o leave_v new-england_n that_o about_o sixty_o man_n be_v order_v to_o march_v for_o albany_n from_o the_o several_a town_n on_o connecticott_n river_n but_o whether_o they_o be_v to_o assist_v those_o of_o albany_n against_o the_o

government_n of_o new_a york_n which_o those_o of_o albany_n always_o refuse_v to_o submit_v to_o but_o continue_v as_o they_o be_v be_v a_o great_a question_n and_o can_v only_o be_v know_v by_o their_o fruit_n and_o service_n the_o base_a imputation_n which_o the_o unworthy_a author_n of_o that_o scurrilous_a paper_n will_v cast_v on_o sir_n e._n a._n and_o other_o person_n concern_v in_o their_o majesty_n government_n i_o think_v be_v not_o worth_a my_o take_v any_o particular_a notice_n of_o since_o both_o he_o and_o their_o action_n do_v plain_o show_v they_o of_o who_o he_o so_o speak_v to_o be_v faithful_a and_o loyal_a subject_n and_o from_o the_o whole_a scope_n of_o proceed_n in_o new-england_n it_o be_v most_o plain_a that_o the_o late_a subverter_n of_o the_o government_n have_v no_o manner_n of_o regard_n to_o their_o majesty_n interest_n or_o service_n but_o when_o they_o have_v as_o far_o as_o possible_o ruin_v and_o destroy_v the_o same_o think_v
