﻿HISTORY 
  OF 
  THE 
  NEW 
  YORK 
  IROQUOIS 
  255 
  

  

  Bellomont 
  complained 
  that 
  Schuyler 
  made 
  himself 
  popular 
  

   by 
  entertaining 
  Aquendeeo 
  (Atotarho?) 
  alias 
  Sadeganaktie, 
  

   speaker 
  of 
  the 
  Five 
  Nations, 
  and 
  25 
  others, 
  for 
  two 
  months 
  at 
  

   the 
  king's 
  expense. 
  In 
  the 
  notice 
  of 
  the 
  chief's 
  death 
  that 
  winter, 
  

   he 
  is 
  called 
  by 
  the 
  full 
  Onondaga 
  council 
  name 
  of 
  Sakoghsinna- 
  

   kichte, 
  equivalent 
  to 
  Sadeganaghtie, 
  and 
  his 
  successor 
  immedi- 
  

   ately 
  took 
  both 
  his 
  names, 
  but 
  is 
  best 
  known 
  by 
  the 
  latter. 
  

  

  June 
  19, 
  1701, 
  Maricourt 
  came 
  again 
  to 
  Kaneenda, 
  the 
  landing 
  

   place 
  at 
  Onondaga 
  lake 
  and 
  8 
  miles 
  from 
  the 
  town, 
  to 
  which 
  he 
  

   was 
  escorted 
  under 
  the 
  French 
  flag. 
  Bleecker 
  and 
  Schuyler 
  

   were 
  already 
  there, 
  but 
  would 
  have 
  nothing 
  to 
  do 
  with 
  the 
  

   French. 
  Maricourt 
  carried 
  things 
  with 
  a 
  high 
  hand, 
  and 
  Dekan- 
  

   issora 
  went 
  to 
  Kaneenda 
  to 
  arrange 
  matters 
  with 
  him. 
  Onon- 
  

   daga 
  deputies 
  had 
  reached 
  Montreal 
  Mar. 
  2 
  with 
  complaints 
  

   against 
  the 
  western 
  Indians, 
  and 
  Maricourt 
  returned 
  with 
  them. 
  

   He 
  was 
  surprised 
  to 
  find 
  Englishmen 
  there. 
  Dekanissora 
  allowed 
  

   all 
  the 
  captives 
  at 
  Onondaga 
  to 
  return, 
  but 
  some 
  had 
  married 
  

   there 
  and 
  would 
  not 
  go. 
  It 
  was 
  the 
  same 
  elsewhere, 
  but 
  Joncaire 
  

   brought 
  some 
  from 
  the 
  Cayugas 
  and 
  Senecas, 
  being 
  now 
  resident 
  

   agent 
  with 
  the 
  latter. 
  The 
  Oneidas 
  would 
  give 
  up 
  no 
  prisoners, 
  

   but 
  five 
  at 
  last 
  went 
  from 
  Onondaga. 
  Dekanissora 
  said 
  the 
  

   French 
  had 
  50 
  or 
  60 
  prisoners 
  from 
  the 
  Iroquois 
  last 
  fall 
  and 
  

   they 
  had 
  none 
  in 
  return. 
  He 
  favored 
  having 
  a 
  minister 
  from 
  

   and 
  trade 
  with 
  those 
  who 
  would 
  do 
  the 
  best 
  by 
  them. 
  The 
  

   Onondagas 
  already 
  had 
  a 
  reputation 
  as 
  " 
  men 
  of 
  business." 
  

  

  After 
  Bruyas 
  brought 
  back 
  the 
  French 
  prisoners 
  in 
  1700, 
  

   Fathers 
  Jacques 
  de 
  Lamberville, 
  Julien 
  Gamier 
  and 
  Le 
  Vaillant 
  

   were 
  sent 
  to 
  the 
  Onondagas 
  and 
  Senecas. 
  Fathers 
  d'Heu 
  and 
  

   De 
  Mareuil 
  followed, 
  remaining 
  till 
  1709, 
  the 
  former 
  being 
  resi- 
  

   dent 
  there 
  last 
  of 
  all. 
  

  

  A 
  council 
  was 
  held 
  at 
  Montreal 
  Aug. 
  4, 
  1701, 
  at 
  which 
  all 
  of 
  

   the 
  western 
  nations 
  were 
  represented, 
  with 
  the 
  Iroquois 
  and 
  

   French. 
  In 
  this 
  the 
  Iroquois 
  promised 
  neutrality 
  between 
  the 
  

   French 
  and 
  English. 
  Prisoners 
  were 
  restored, 
  and 
  a 
  general 
  

   peace 
  was 
  signed 
  with 
  great 
  ceremonies, 
  in 
  a 
  place 
  specially 
  

   prepared.
