Scope & content
Letter: re discontinuance of presents to the Indians. Advises that the Report of the Council is against the discontinuance and makes recommendations about changes in the kind of presents given as well as new regulations regarding their issuance. Recommends that wandering Indians [identified as being 125 in number] should not continue to receive presents unless they settle down and farm. Recommends that schools be established and maintained and that compact settlements should be formed as well as the option given for the Indians to settle elsewhere, following their own choice and that they be given agricultural implements. Refers to Treaty now in progress with the Iroquois at St Regis.
