Show moreKirkland 73a To the Honorable Jonathan Trumbull Esquire - Governer of Connecticut - by him to be communicated to the Inhabitants of the New England Provinces. A Speech from the Chiefs and warriors of the Oneida Nation. As my younger Brothers of the New England Indians (who have settled in our vicinity) are moving down to visit their friends and move up parts of their families that were left behind. By them with this belt I desire the Road clear of all obstacles - that they may visit their friends and return to their settlement here in peace. We Oneidas are induced to the measure on account of the disagreeable situation of your affairs - and hope by the help of God they may go and return in peace - and we earnestly recommend them to your Charity. Now we more immediately address ourselves to our Brothers - the Governors and Chiefs of New England. Brothers - possess your minds in peace respecting us Indians - we cannot intermeddle in this dispute between two Brothers. The quarrel seems to be unnatural - you are two Brothers of one blood. We are unwilling to join on either side of such a contest, for we love you both - old England and new. Should the great King of England apply to us for our aid - we shall deny him - and should the Colonies apply - we shall refuse. The present situation of you, two Brothers, is new to us. We Indians cannot find or recollect from the traditions of our ancestors any like case. For these reasons, Brothers, possess your minds in peace that we refuse joining in the contest. We are for peace. Brothers, was it an alien, a foreign Nation, that had struck you, we should look into the matter. We hope, through the wise government and good pleasure of God - your distresses will soon be removed and the dark cloud be dispersed. Brethren - as we have declared, we are for peace. We desire you would not apply to our Indian Brethren in New England for their assistance. Let us Indians be all of one mind, and live in peace with one another - and you white people settle your own disputes. Brothers, we have now delivered our leading sentiments as to the situation of your prayers. Please to write to us - that we may know how you receive it. [Undated. In Kirkland's writing. A very rough draft.]

When I wrote the letter I could not talk with her (propter Causam antiquam) but last night she informed me she felt comfortable. and had done for near 3 weeks past, though many Doubts about her State. -She has been released from her old Distress, and what Distress she now meets with arises from another Source - Christ appears a complete Saviour, as willing as able, and she sees 'tis attainments, but is looking out for a sound, real, and evidential Conversion - She hates the Hypocrite - I really hope Christ Jesus is precious to the tender Heart! O! may the Father of Lights fill her with Light, and assured Evidences! Ah! scatter the Clouds of Darkness and shine in upon her mind the bright beams of Divine Glory! P.S. 2. Miss Bettse was at a loss whether it would be best to acquaint you with this: but I hope there is more reality in it than she feared, therefore you will know how better to petition for her. P.S. 3. Don't expose me, nor the Person I mentioned. Please to overlook my haste and carelessness. How much would a Letter rejoice your most sincere, most affectionate, most entire, real and ever unfeigned Friend, David Avery ! Part of a letter from David Avery to Samuel Kirkland 1769?
