London. . . Sept. 10. Yesterday the Indian Chiefs were
carried from their lodgings in King-street, Covent-Garden,
to the Plantation Office at Whitehall, guarded by two files
of Musqueteers: When they were brought up to the Lords
Commissioners, they sang 4 or 5 songs in their country
language; after which the interpreter was ordered to let
them know, that they were sent for there to join in peace
with King George and his people; . . . [22 lines] and the
Governor should entertain them; upon which the King got up
and kiss'd the Commissioners, as the Prince had done before;
the other chiefs also did the same; whereupon they sang some
more songs, and then returned home.
