Abstract
Three Oneida chiefs have been invited to Niagara by Brant and Butler. Several "family connections" of Brant also invited, but declined. Fort Schuyler "not to be attacked this season", according to Butler. Ticonderoga may be taken, however. John Johnson is living in the Seneca country as an intelligence coordinator.
