September 21, 1779 [At end of long speech from Indian chief
Keleeleman to Machingive Keeshuch] Now listen to me, my
grand-children, you see how dreadful the day looks, . . . [2
lines] I have finished the chain of friendship. The
Thirteen United States and I are one . . . [12 lines] I have
got in my hand what you say will save my life, and
immediately sung his war-song. The speaker, having danced,
delivered the scalps to the King, who likewise rose and sang
the war-song, and said now my grandfathers, although you
have often sent good speeches to the other tribes of the
Shawanese nation, . . . [17 lines]
