I am master of the whole Choctaw nation; by birth, by long employment, & by long experience, it is to me to give instruction to the rest. . . . When I was young, the white men came among us bearing abundance. . . . I now see another race of white men come among us bearing the same abundance, & I expect they will be equally generous, which must be done if they wish equally to gain the affection of my people. . . . In case we deliver up our French medals & commissions, we expect to receive as good in their place, and that we should bear the same authority & be entitled to the same presents. . . . I am not of opinion that in giving land to the English, we deprive ourselves of the use of it. On the contrary, I think we shall share it with them, as for example the house I now speak in was built by the white people on our land, yet it is divided between the white & the red people. Therefore, we need not be uneasy that the English settle upon our lands, as by that means they can more easily supply our wants.
