We will allow they have conquered the Sachdagughroonaw, and drove back the Tuscarroraws, and that they have, on that account, a Right to some Part of Virginia; but as to waht lies beyond the mountains, we conquered the nations residing there, and that Land, if the Virginians ever get a good Right to it, it must be by us...Speech of Tachanoontia, a chief of the six nations, at Lancaster in 1744, see Colden Histy. p 112."
