Excerpt from Copy of David Bailey's Document Concerning Indians Affiars This interview resulted in our being recommended by General Vance, Judge Ruggles, Judge Crane, and others present, to first visit the Secretary of war(gov. Cass), who they apprehended was a true friend to the Indians. The above named truly great men, for such I dare to call them, cheerfully offered their service to accompany us to see the Secretary of War, next morning: it being now near bedtime we re turned to our lodging, which was at Brown's tavern. And notwithstanding in the forepart of our journey we met with discouragements which brought to the test our very best feelings, by this interview we were renewedly encouraged to believe that the cause in which we were engaged was good and that there were friends to it who we knew not of before.
