" In 1762, with a prospect for continued peace. 

 Sir William Johnson turned his attention more 

 diiectly to the improvement of the Six Nations. 

 He was earnest in helping all etforts for their 

 conversion and education, and his position and 

 long experience gave him practical insight into 

 measures affecting their welfare. Most of the 

 Mohawks, and some of the Oneida.s and Tusca- 

 roras, could now read, and he often furnished 

 them suitable books. As knowledge spread 

 among them, the need of a new edition of the 

 Indian prayer-book attracted his attention, and 

 he undertook it.s i)ublication at his own ex- 

 pense, securing the Rev. Dr. Barclay to super- 

 intend the work. With a copy of the old edi- 

 tion he sent translations of the singing psalms, 

 the commumou ofHce, that of baptism, and some 

 prayers, which he desired added. When com- 

 pleted the book was an octavo of 201 pages. 



"But it was not printed at once, and the 

 causes of the delay were both interesting and 

 curious. Mr. William Weyman, of New York, 

 commenced the work in 1763, and soon encoun- 

 tered difficulties of which he has left us full ac- 

 counts. He had a good font of type for printing 

 English, but was soon ' out of sorts ' in this new 

 language. Let him tell his own story : 'Wo are 

 jnit to prodigious ditiiculty to print such lan- 

 guage (in form) in North America, where we 

 have not the command of a letter maker's 

 founding-house to suit ourselves in yo particu- 

 lar sorts required, aUch as i/'s, k's, y's, etc , etc., 

 when, had it been in ye English tongue, wo could 

 make much greater dispatch — but at present 

 'tis absolutely impossible — I having been 

 obliged t" borrow sundry letters from my 

 brother pi inters, even to complete this present 

 half sheet.' 



" Rev. Dr. Barclay died in 17G4, and his long 

 sickness and death hindered, and for a time act- 

 ually stopped, the work ou the new edition, as 

 there w.is then no one in the city of New York 

 who could revise or coirect it but hiui. He 

 found that the copy sent was very erroneous, 

 and s|)ent much time in correcting it; while, at 

 the same time, it was so long since he had used 

 tlie Mohawk language, that he was distrustful 

 of his own ability. During his illness he sug- 

 gested that Mr. Daniel Clans, afterward Indian 

 agent in Canada, was better able to do it than 

 hiiuself, but he was then away. Mr. Weyman, 

 therefore, sent the copy back to be transcribed 

 clearly, under Sir William's own eye, agreeing 

 to ■ I'ollow co|iy' wlieu it was returned.
