Then the Commissioners of _Virginia_ presented the hundred Pounds in Gold, together with a Paper, containing a Promise to recommend the _Six Nations_ for further Favour to the King; which they received with _Yo-hah_, and the Paper was given by them to _Conrad Weiser_ to keep for them. The Commissioners likewise promised that their publick Messengers should not be molested in their Passage through _Virginia_, and that they would prepare Passes for such of the _Conoy Indians_ as were willing to remove to the Northward.
Then the Commissioners of _Maryland_ presented their hundred Pounds in Gold, which was likewise received with the _Yo-hah_.
_Canassatego_ said, We mentioned to you Yesterday the Booty you had taken from the _French_, and asked you for some of the Rum which we supposed to be Part of it, and you gave us some; but it turned out unfortunately that you gave it in _French_ Glasses, we now desire you will give us some in _English_ Glasses.
The Governor made answer, We are glad to hear you have such a Dislike for what is _French_. They cheat you in your Glasses, as well as in every thing else. You must consider we are at a Distance from _Williamsburg, Annapolis_, and _Philadelphia_, where our Rum Stores are, and that although we brought up a good Quantity with us, you have almost drunk it out; but, notwithstanding this, we have enough left to fill our _English_ Glasses, and will shew the Difference between the Narrowness of the _French_, and the Generosity of your Brethren the _English_ towards you.
The _Indians_ gave, in their Order, five _Yo-hahs_; and the honourable Governor and Commissioners calling for some Rum, and some middle-sized Wine-Glasses, drank Health to the _great King of_ England, and the _Six Nations_, and put an end to the Treaty by three loud Huzza's, in which all the Company joined.
In the Evening the Governor went to take his Leave of the _Indians_, and, presenting them with a String of Wampum, he told them, that was in return for one he had received of them, with a Message to desire the Governor of _Virginia_ to suffer their Warriors to go through _Virginia_ unmolested, which was rendered unnecessary by the present Treaty.
Then, presenting them with another String of Wampum, he told them, that was in return for theirs, praying him, that as they had taken away one Part of _Conrad Weiser_'s Beard, which frightened their Children, he would please to take away the other, which he had ordered to be done.
