And it is very agreeable to me and the Commissioners from all the Governments present to find a Disposition in you to receive the Christian Religion Bretheren

As I have given you Satisfaction with respect to one of your Complaints about your Lands which lay heavy on your minds, and have assured you that I shall endeavoui' to do you Justice, as to the rest when 1 come to New York, I shall not say anything farther to you on that Affair now.

The Governor being informed by the Interpreter that

they choose to have the pouder divided on the Hill, told

them it was in his Opinion better for them to have it sent

to Schenectady.

Hendrick Answered for them, just as his Honour pleased, who told them, he would order the pouder to Schenectady and the Rum above the Settlements, with which they expressed themselves Satisfied.

His Honour then said

I have now done speaking to You but before I cover up the Fire I must recommend it to You to behave quietly and peaceably to all your Bretheren and their Castle in your return home. Hendrick then Replyed

Your Honour told us you now covered up the Fire we are highly pleased that all things have been so amicably Settled, and hope that all that has passed between us may be strictly observed on both sides.

Bretheren of the Several Governments

We hope that you will not fail in the Covenant Chain wherewith we have mutually bound ourselves, and now so solemnly renewed and Strengthened.
