And whereas in defcribing the Boundary before mentioned, the Words, if ftrictly conftructed, would carry it from the Portage on that Branch of the Miami, which runs into the Ohio, over to the River Au Glaize; which was neither the Intention of the Indians, nor of the Commiffioners; it is hereby declared, that the Line fhall run from the faid Portage directly to the firft Fork of the Miami-River, which is to the Southward and Eaftward of the Miami Village, thence down the main Branch of the Miami-River to the faid Village, and thence down that River to Lake Erie, and along the Margin of the Lake to the Place of Beginning.
