Penn's visit to Lord Bal- timore.
After the meeting of the assembly, at Chester, Penn set out on the 11th ; at West River, he met his lordship, attended suitable to his character, "who took occasion, by his civili- ties, to show him the greatness of his power." The next day he had a conference respecting the bounds, " at the same ta- ble with our respective members of council." Penn presented to Lord Baltimore "the king's letter," on the subject of the boundaries, in which Lord Baltimore said the king was mis- taken. The conference only resulted in an appointment to meet again in the spring.2
Penn's treaty at the Elm Tree.
Tradition, as well as historians, poets, and painters, have informed us, that about this period, a treaty between William Penn and the Indians was held at Shackamaxon. Great dif- ference of opinion has existed as to the object of it, some asserting that it was for the purchase of lands, and others that it was intended as a league of friendship between the parties. If it had been for the purchase of lands, they say we should have some recorded memorials of it, or if a treaty at all, the written narrative of it would have descended to us, as in other cases of a similar nature; hence, in the ab- sence of both, the conclusion has been arrived at by some, that no such treaty or conference did take place. The His- torical Society, desirous that so interesting an event, and one which has gained for our founder so much celebrity and praise,

should no longer remain in doubt, several years since ap- pointed a committee1 to collect all the facts, and investigate the subject as far as at this late period could be done. The re- sult of their labours was a very able report, taking a view of the whole ground, and embracing almost all that has been said or written on the subject. It is printed in the Society's Memoirs, vol. iii. part 2, page 143, to which we refer those who are desirous of information respecting it. It shows con- clusively and satisfactorily, as the author thinks, that such a treaty or conference did take place, probably in November, 1682, at Shackamaxon, under the Great Elm Tree, which was blown down in 1810, the position of which is now desig- nated by a marble obelisk, erected by the Penn Society. The treaty was probably made, according to the committee, with the Lenni Lenape or Delaware tribes, and some of the Sus- quehanna Indians; that it was "a treaty of amity and friendship," and perhaps confirmatory of one made previously by Markham. In the concluding language of the report, therefore, " we hope that the memory of the Great Treaty, and of our illustrious founder, will remain engraved on the memory of our children, and children's children, to the end of time."
We would refer also to vol. i. of Clarkson's Life of Penn, who enters largely into the subject, giving even the speeches made, and a description of Penn's dress. He says that the blue sash worn by Penn at the time, was, when he wrote, still in existence. Also to Memoirs by John F. Watson, in same vol. of Memoirs, p. 129; and another by Roberts Vaux, in vol. i. page 79; also to the Histories of Proud and Gordon, and Watson's Annals. Although much of fancy may be found in some of these, they serve to show the interest taken by all writers in the event. Voltaire says, that this is " the only treaty which was never sworn to, and never broken." West has immortalized it with his pencil.
Captain Brockholls, in a letter of this date, to Sir John Dec. 28. Werden, says, " I received yours of 24th August past, the Captain 4th December, but too late to assist or serve William Penn Brockholls's letter to Sir in giving possession of what his royal highness has been John Wer- pleased to grant him ; being before possessed thereof by the persons empowered in the body of the deeds, which Mr. Penn, having since been here, hath shown and recorded; am ready

Townships pointing them, in open court, to receive all petitions from persons wanting to take up lands amongst them ; to grant warrants to the surveyor to measure the same; not to exceed 300 acres to a master of a family, nor 100 to a single person, to be laid off. at one single penny per acre, or value thereof in the produce of the country, which done, surveyor to make his return into my secretary's office. All lands formerly granted, and not taken up and settled within the time limited by the methods of your own court, shall be accounted vacant lands. All persons, for the future, that shall have grants, shall be limited to seat in a year, else the grants to be void. Endeavour to seat the lands by way of townships, as 3000 acres among ten families ; if single persons, 1000 acres among ten of them, laid out in a long square, five or ten of a side, and a way of 200 feet broad left between them, for a highway, in the town- ship, for the future good and great benefit of the country.2
A ship of 550 tons ar- rives, with 350 passen- gers. Get ashore. Kindness of Indians to them.
" A large ship of 550 tons burden arrived in West Jersey, which got aground in Delaware Bay, where, after laying eight days, by a favourable wind and tide, got off, and landed her passengers, being 360, between Philadelphia and Burlington, on the Jersey shore. Their provisions being nigh gone, they sent ten miles, to an Indian town near Rancocas Creek, for Indian corn and pease. The king of this tribe being there, treated them kindly, and directed such Indians as had pro- visions to bring them in next morning, who accordingly brought plenty, which being delivered and put in bags, the messengers took leave of the king, who kindly ordered some of the Indians to carry these bags for them to their canoes."3
Having completed the first part of our plan, by tracing the settlements on the Delaware from their commencement, and placed William Penn in full possession of his territory and government, we here close our volume, and are now pre- pared to enter upon the details of our future history.

APPENDIX.
[No. 1.]
SINCE printing the instructions from William Penn to his commissioners, on page 531, we have received from the Land-Office, at Harrisburg, through the kindness of Col. Crain, the fol- lowing commission and instructions to other commissioners, of a later date, partly for the same purpose. It will be observed that they refer to instructions dated 14th October, 1681, which we have not yet been able to find ; being only about two weeks later, they probably did not vary much from those on page 531, if indeed the same, dated September 30, 1681, be not referred to. It will be observed, likewise, that in the present instance, the name of William Haige is added to the others.
"William Penn, proprietary and governor of Pennsylvania, greeting, to his trusty and well- beloved friends, William Crispin, William Haige, John Bezer, and Nathaniel Allen :- These are to authorize and appoint you my commissioners, in my name fully and effectually to act whatever may be requisite for settling the present colony embarked this autumn at London and Bristol, for Pennsylvania, and all other adventurers, with respect to the survey and allotment of every man his share, according to the catalogue of purchasers, and the instructions that are herewith given to you ; for all which, this shall be your sufficient warrant and authority. Given under my hand and seal, at London, in the kingdom of England, this five and twentieth day of October. in the year of our Lord, according to the English account, one thousand six hundred eighty and one.
WILLIAM PENN. [L. S.]
" The present duty of the commissioners is to lay out ten thousand acres for a town, in which the purchaser or purchasers of every five thousand acres shall have one hundred acres; and that the town shares be laid out together, according to this catalogue, and the contiguousness of the counties of the purchasers belong to. And I do further order, that the last part of this town be laid out for the present purchasers; and for the rest, I refer to my instructions dated the 14th of October, 1681. WILLIAM PENN."1
[ No. 2.]
The following is the list referred to in the directions of William Penn to Philip Ford, on page 576, and which immediately follows them. We copy it from a paper in the Land-Office, endorsed " List of Purchasers, 22d March, 1682, (left by Isaac Brown,) with order to Philip Ford." This date evidently ought to be 22d May, or third month, (O. S.) Holme was not ap- pointed till April.
