William Johnson, et al., 1756
[JOHNSON, William. (1715-1774).] An Account of Conferences held, and Treaties made, between Major-general Sir William Johnson, and the chief Sachems and Warriours of the Mohawks, Oneidas, Onondagas, Cayugas, Senekas, Tuskaroras, Aughquageys, Skaniadaradighronos, Chugnuts, Mahickanders, Shawanese, Kanuskagos, Toderighronos, and Oghquagoes, Indian Nations in North America. London: A. Millar, 1756.
First edition. "These conferences were held and treaties made to prevent the encroachments of the French. Smith in his History of New York, says that in 1756 Sir William Johnson, within nine months after the arrival of Braddock, received £10,000 to use in securing the allegiance and pacification of the Indians. To what good purpose this amount was expended appears in the results of this conference" (Church). There is a two-page French and Five Nations vocabulary at the beginning and an appendix containing an account of conferences between several Quakers in Philadelphia and representatives of the Six Nations in April of 1756 at end. Church 1010; Howes W-155 ("b"); Sabin 36337; Waldon, p.380.
