Title

Supplying the Indians Without an Intermediary

Description

McHenry declares that supplying the Indians without an intermediary entails difficulties that are not insurmountable. It is hoped that gradually intercourse with the Indians will become more friendly so that they will become the sellers of their own peltry and buyers of the articles they want in return.
