abstract
{"value"=>"The Pennsylvania Assembly is about to pass an act inflicting the penalty of death on those who are settled, or may settle, on any lands in the province not purchased from the Indians, unless they remove on thirty days notice; if Gov. [John] Penn acts with him in the spring, there will not be one settler left on the Monongahela; a villain named Frederick Stump has murdered ten Indians; he has received Johnson's letter of the 22d inst. by [George] Croghan with account of expenses for fitting out Indians for the Illinois, removing settlers from Redstone, etc.; [John] Hay's case has turned out as he expected; doubtful expediency of granting the bell at Niagara to the priest at Detroit."}
