We have also an account by the Courier, that a Sir William
Johnson sent out 11 Mohawks in order to take a prisoner to
gain intelligence, which was effected by them 5 leagues
above Montreal, and whom they bro't to Sir William; after he
had examined him, the Indians insisted on his being
delivered back to them, that they might kill him, but a
chief of the Mohawk tribe being present, he forbid his being
kill'd; they then tied him up, whip'd him severely, had an
Indian dance round him, and then delivered him up again to
Sir William for conveyance to New York. . .
