Title: Samuel Kirkland to Henry Knox
Names: Kirkland, Samuel, 1741-1808, Knox, Henry, 1750-1806

Type: Correspondence

Subjects: Indians of North America -- New York (State), Missionaries -- New York (State)
Geography: Livingston County (N.Y.), ,
Abstract: Relates proceedings of secret conference at Ft. Niagara. The chiefs have decided to go to Philadelphia. Brant also invited Samuel Kirkland to Niagara, an offer he declined, after consultation with Red Jacket and Good Peter. Many (including Samuel Kirkland) think that a split in the Iroquois Confederacy is inevitable: "unless a general peace is settled, and... unless a representation of all the Five Nations is taken to Philadelphia... many warriors will join with the Western Confederacy in the spring." Kirkland suggests that Brant be properly invited to visit Congress. A certain animosity now evident between Brant and the British.
