His frequent visits to the governor, and to the people called Quakers (to whom he was much attached, because they were known to be friendly to the Indians) excited much jealousy among some of his nation, especially the Monseys, who believed that he was carrying on some underhand work at Philadelphia detrimental to the na- tion at large; on which account, and as they wished the continuation of the war, they became his enemies. From the precarious situation Tadeuskund was placed in, it was easy t...o foresee that he would come to an un- timely end. Perhaps no Indian chief before him ever found iiimself so delicately situated ; mistrusted and blamed by our government and the English people gene- rally, because he did not use his whole endeavours to keep his nation at peace, or compel them to lay down tlie hatchet; and accused by his own people of having ta- ken a bribe from the English, or entered into some se- cret agreement with them that would be of benefit to him- self alone, as he would not suffer them to inflict just pu- nishment on that nation for the wrongs they had done them, but was constantly calling upon them to make peace.
