The President of the United States, embraces your proposal and He will send Commissioners, to meet you at the time and place appointed, with the sincere desire of removing all causes of difference, so that We may be always hereafter good Friends and Brothers. It is desired that there may be a full assembly of all the Chiefs and Head Men of all your Tribes, so that the peace, which it is hoped will then be concluded, may be fully known, and perfectly observed by all the parties. The United States will endeavour to furnish by the way of Canada and the Lakes, a full supply of provisions during the Treaty; but lest there should any unforeseen obstacles to the Measure, a Supply will also be forwarded to our nearest Post to you, for this purpose; and it will be expected that there be no interruption on your part to the Transportation thereof. We shall prevent any of our parties, going into the Indian Country, so that You may send your Women & Children, rest in full security; and We desire, and shall expect, that You call in all your Warriors, and prevent their going out again. It will be in vain to expect peace, while they continue their depredations on the frontiers. Given, by order of the President of the United States, in the City of Philadelphia this twelfth day of December one thousand seven hundred and ninety two.
