AL. The writer, who is accompanying the [Iroquois] chief Teoragaron [Ano8ara], encloses a ms [missing] which is a portion of what should be printed in order to counter the Methodist literature. The enclosed ms is written in a language that is understood by the Oneiots or Onenhiotehakas [i.e., Oneidas], the Onontagués or Onontehakas [i.e., Onondagas], the Goiok8ens or Koiok8enhakas [i.e., Cayugas], the Ataskarorens or Ataskarorenhakas [i.e., Tuscaroras]. In the language they use, only 12 letters of the alphabet could be used to express concepts. The fact that the Methodist, who teach the Mohawks or Mokawks, employ more letters of the alphabet (as from their book which is also enclosed [missing]), makes their literature less comprehensible. This M is addressed to "via di [C]apo le [C]ase no 79" [a building close to the palace of PF].
