Abstract
The Indians inform Samuel Kirkland that a Scotch trader has just gotten a lease of ten years for his house. He wants to supposedly set up a store and public house. The Indians are wholeheartedly against this plan and desire immediate intervention. Reverse is written in Indian, and the letter appears to be incomplete.
