M .- The mother of Regina was a native of Reutlinger, Wirtemberg, Germany. She and her husband had immigrated to America prior to the French war, and located in the upper part of Lancaster county. The family were members of the Lutheran congregation, under the pastoral charge of the Revd. Kurtz of Tulpehocken. Regina and her older sister, Barbara, were abducted Oct. 16, 1755. Regina was only 8 years of age at the time. After they had been taken about 400 miles, they were separated, never to see each other again ! Their sufferings and privations may be imagined more easily than described. After Regina had been restored to her mother, they both paid the Reverend Muhlenberg a visit, in the month of February, 1765. Touching as the incidents related in this occasion are, want of space precludes a de- tailed account of them.


N .- Sometime in March, 1768, Generals Butler and Parsons, two of the commissioners for Indian affairs in the northern and middle de- partment of the United States, from the Big Miami, where they had concluded a treaty of peace with the Shawnee nation of Indians; in a few days afterward, March 28th, a principal Seneca chief, with five young men of his nation arrived ; and on the evening of the 30th, the inhabitants and the strangers assembled in the court house, on which occasion Captain O'Bail, the chief, addressed General Butler, as fol- lows :

APPENDIX.


Brother,-The representative of the Thirteen Fires (United States) and all present, I desire you to listen !


Yesterday you heard my words-I told you my mind upon some sub- jects ; but I promised to unbosom myself fully to you to day. This island was once mine. The ground upon which we now stand, for- merly belonged to my people. Hearken to my words, brother-for I am now about to divulge to you the cause of my distress-the cause of the uneasiness which I told you hung heavy upon my mind.


Brother,-I have heard from the British, that you have concluded a treaty with the nations westward ;- although I was so informed-yet my mind could not be quieted-I therefore came among other things, to satisfy myself of what had been done between you and those nations.


Brother,-Listen ! although I joined the arms of the Great King,* and assisted him in his war against you, I have now relinquished all connection with him-I am not afraid of him, or of what he can do to me. A string.


Brother,-If you remember, in the old councils the Great King told us, that the French had relinquished all their claim to this country to him. Perhaps the writings by which they did that still remain in your possession :- those writings I am desirous of seeing. A string.


Brother,-My people were the old inhabitants of this island-it be- comes us both to join our endeavors to prevent injuries from befalling it-to ward off the disturbance which promise, before it be long, to dis- tress us-our women-and our little ones. As for me-my life is short -'tis already sold to the Great King .- Let us unite our strength, that we may be strong .- Let us live in friendship, that we may be able to prevent all people from doing us an injury. A string.


Brother,-Once more hearken to me ! I fear I tire your patience ;- but as the business upon which we have met is good-listen to me pa- tiently, while I declare to you all my sentiments. I wish to see what hath been done with the other nations to the west-that every thing may be clear to us. The Great Spirit above direct us !- and I am con- vinced that whatever is said or done is good and right. Let us, Bro- ther, implore his assistance-Let us be tied together in friendship- Encircle us within yourselves-that none may dare to provoke either of us, or to offer insult or injury to either party. A belt.


[Agreeably to O'Bail's desire, the definite treaty of peace with Great Britain ; that article of the treaty of alliance with France, which con- tains a renunciation of all claims to the country, within the limits of the United States, as described in the definite treaty aforesaid; the treaty at Fort M'Intosh, with the Wiandots, Delawares, Ottawas and Chippawas; and that at the Miami with the Shawanee nations were produced.] Whereupon General Butler addressed O'Bail, in answer to his speech as follows.


Brother,-It is with happiness I hear the sentiments which you have expressed .- As to the information which you desired, I shall give it to you with satisfaction, and as full as it may be in my power.


What you mention of this country having belonged to your people, is unnecessary for us to go into an examination or explanation of ; these matters were settled by and between our forefathers in a friend- ly manner, before we were born-but with respect to the means by


* Alluding to the King of England.

APPENDIX.


which the United States are become the sovereigns and owners of this country, I will now inform you :- Twenty and more years agone the King of England and the King of France went to war about the right to this territory, and after they had fought a long time, a treaty of peace was concluded between these two powers, by which the King of France ceded his right to this country to the King of England .-- Twelve years ago, when the King of England made war on the Thirteen Fires (U. S.) -The King of France, willing to shew his friendship to the United States, joined their arms against him, and took them by the hand as brothers, and relinquished to them all the claim he ever had to this country-The United States having conquered the British King, he ceded to them all the territory which we have described to you as con- tained in the definite treaty of peace, concluded between Great Britain and the United States, which we read to. you at Fort Stanwix, which I now hold in my hand, and will again explain to you here if you desire it.


When we thus, by the prowess of our arms, became possessed of all those lands, no people within our boundaries had any right; yet the United States commiserated the situation of the Indians ; and instead of driving them beyond the Great Lakes from their old places of habi- tation, they offered them peace, friendship and protection, and lands for themselves and their families to live and hunt on.


In return for this clemency, they only require, on the part of the In- dians, a strict adherence to their engagements. They have settled boundary lines between the United States, the Wiandots, Delawares, Ottawas and Chippawas, by a treaty at Fort M'Intosh, and the Shaw. anee nation by a treaty at the Miami river, which we have lately con- cluded .- They have proffered the same kindness to all the other na- tions, whose acceptance, we doubt not, will take place so soon as they will be able to dispel the clouds of delusion which hang over them- and to see their true interest. I promise you that while there is honor or faith in the United States, the engagements which have, or hereafter may be entered into with the Indian nations, will be most punctually complied with. In testimony of what I have mentioned to you, I here produce to you the papers, which record the transactions which have taken place between the United States and your's and other nations.


Here the different treaties were shown.


It shall be our constant endeavors to preserve a friendly intercourse between your nations and the Thirteen Fires, so long as they preserve their faith with us. I approve of your going on to Congress, as I think the measure argues the goodness of your intentions, and shews us that you are sincere.


O'Bail again replied.


Brother,-I yesterday told you of the trouble which oppressed me- I feel myself as just awaked from a dream-for I begin now to consid- er the future lot of my little ones, and reflect with anger on the decep- tions practised on us by the Great King over the water. Iassisted him -fought his battles-while he sat quietly in his forts-nor did I ever suspect that so great a person-and one who wore a red cout-sufficient of itself to tempt people, could be guilty of such palpable injustice-of such glaring falsehood .- My reason for telling you that this island would soon be disturbed is, that I am determined to avenge the injuries which I and my people have sustained from the King. He hath al-

ready begun to settle his people on the lands beyond the river, opposite to Niagara. Those buildings nor settlements shall remain. I will go peaceably to him and will desire him to move off-This request I will repeat calmiy to him three times-if he will not then decamp, I am re- solved to strike him, and hence will flow these inquietudes which I mentioned. A string.


Brother,-When we have settled all matters fully, my desire is, that Congress appoint seven of you, which I will take by the hand and lead you to our council fire at the Jenessee ; there you will discover the truth of what I say to you, and that I am sent with authority by my people. A string.


Brother,-I now take this string to strengthen your hearts-I repeat my desire that we should join our force together, by which means we shall be able to accomplish all our ends, and to drive the Great King quite away. I request you to make all these things known to the Great Council-where I wish to see you as soon as possible, as we connot do our business unless you be present. A string.


To which General Butler replied.


That he could not answer to Captain O'Bail's last requisitions - That the duty of the commissioners was to make peace, &c. with the Indian nations, and that the right of making war remained alone in Congress-that he would carefully transmit to Congress all which he said upon the subject. A string.


It must give great satisfaction to every lover of peace to find the dis- position of the late hostile part of the Six Northern Nations much changed in favor of the United States, since the treaty of Fort Stanwix, in Oct. 1784, and shew to the frontier inhabitants of Pennsylvania and New York, the propriety and good policy of cultivating the friendship of, and living on a good footing with these nations.


Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Bedford to his acquaintance in this borough, dated March 27th, 1786.


Last evening I had the honor to be introduced to Captain. O'Bail, or Cornplanter, the Chief of the Senecas, one of the Six Nations, a young Chief or Captain of their warriors, and four young men, in company with Major Montgomery, on his return from the treaty, and Mr. Joseph Nicholson their interpreter. I was delighted with their easy address and natural politeness. A great number of the inhabitants of this place waited upon them ; some out of curiosity, and others to pay their respects to them. I understand they are now on their way to Congress at New York, to manifest their pacific disposition towards the Ameri- cans.
