Ouconnostota or the Great Warrior, Attakullakulla or Little
Carpenter, the Prince of Chote, Tiftoe of Kecowee, and the
Raven of Toogoloo, formerly of Nookasee, all principal
Cherokee headmen and chiefs, arrived here, accompanied by
Alexander Cameron, Esq., commissary for that nation, and
Friday last they had an audience of his Excellency the
Governor at the State-House, being the first opportunity
they have had of waiting upon his Excellency since his
arrival in this province; they were received at the State-
House by the detachment of the Royal Americans now here, the
artillery and light infantry companies, under arms, with
whose appearance they seemed greatly pleased; they sung the
Peace Song, and danced the Eagle-Tail Dance in honour of his
Lordship.
