Draft of the translation into Oneida of the "Speech by General Frederick Haldimand to the Oneida nation". At the governor's order, Brown & Gilmore of Quebec printed the full text of this message in parallel columns, in English and Oneida, for distribution to the Oneida nation. They produced 102 copies at a cost of 2 pounds, 17 shillings and six pence, as recorded in their account books on 10 April 1779, though only two of these imprints are known to survive, amongst the papers of Sir Frederick Haldimand at the British Library. Further commentary on the publication appears in Marie Tremaine's Bibliography of Canadian Imprints, 1752-1800 (entry 325) and Patricia Fleming and Sandra Alston's suppementary Early Canadian Imprints (entry 325).
