A Treaty between the Agents of Massachuset’s Bay, New-Plymouth, and Connecticut, and the Sachems of the Five Nations, at Albany, in the Year 1689.

This chapter describes the treaty between the Five Nations and the English. At the beginning of September 1689, Colonel John Pynchon, Major John Savage, and Captain Jonathan Bull, agents for the Colonies of Massachuset's Bay, New-Plymouth, and Connecticut, arrived at Albany, to renew the Friendship with the Five Nations and engage with them against the Eastern Indians, who, with the support of the French, were warring against the English in those colonies. Speaking to the New-England agents, the Sachems assured them that they were resolved to look on their enemies as such, and that they intend to attack the Owaragees, then the Owenagungas, and lastly the French.
