Sir, The request of the Reverend Samuel Kirkland , his irksome situation, my office as one of the Commissioners of Indian Affairs for the northern department, and my vicinity to his family, as a next door Neighbour, will be my sufficient apology for my declaring to you as my opinion, that he hath attended during the late war from time to time, often with much expense, fatigue, and danger, on the business of his Mission among the Indians - that it hath been much interrupted by the hostile events - particularly since the year 1778 - that he hath hereby been prevented settling as the pastor of a Church of white Americans - and that he hath an expensive Family, whose circumstances have been and will be much more straitened if he should receive no further reward for those services. Moreover it is my opinion that the character of the Society in Scotland etc. would be much affected in the view of the Indians were Mr. Kirkland left unrewarded for his clerical services rendered them during the late War. I am, Sir, with great respect and real esteem Your most obedient humble Servant Timothy Edwards . Stockbridge, February 20th 1784. the Honorable James Bowdoin , president of the Board of Commissioners Boston Copy of Timothy Edwards' letter to Honorable James Bowdoin Esquire February 20 1784

The Bearer, Mr. Samuel Lewis , is now charged with the money for them, and their neighbours the Tuscaroras and Stockbridge Indians. You and Mr. Dean will have the goodness to make the distribution, according to the corrected list we agreed on at Oneida, except so far as further information may warrant alterations, and as may be necessary to comprehend some few cases which were then omitted: for these can be provided for only by deductions from the former. The treaty have limited the whole to 5000 dollars. I have received a letter from Mr. Sergeant in which, among other things, he mentions his expectation that Captain Hendrick will be needed at the treaty with the Western Indians; but I have thought otherwise, and so have written him. The negotiation is now in such train as I trust will prove successful: and mediators seem no longer necessary. By last Saturdays post I wrote to Mr. Dean , requesting him to prosecute the building of the saw-mill, and Mr. Lewis has 300 dollars to enable him to commence the work. I am respectfully Sir Your most obedient Servant Timothy Pickering . Reverend Samuel Kirkland .
