way.[1] His name and fame were ſo high on record, that count Zinzendorf, when in this country in 1742, became deſirous of ſeeing him, and actually viſited him at his houſe in Shamokin.[2] About the year 1772, Logan was introduced to me, by an Indian friend; as ſon to the late reputable chief Shikellemus, and as a friend to the white people. In the courſe of converſation, I thought him a man of ſuperior talents, than Indians generally were. The ſubject turning on vice and immorality, he confeſſed his too great ſhare of this, eſpecially his fondneſs for liquor. He exclaimed againſt the white people, for impoſing liquors upon the Indians; he otherwiſe admired their ingenuity; ſpoke of gentlemen, but obſerved that the Indians unfortunately had but few of theſe as their neighbors, &c. He ſpoke of his friendſhip to the white people, wiſhed always to be a neighbor to them, intended to ſettle on the Ohio, below Big Beaver; was (to the beſt of my recollection) then encamped at the mouth of this river, (Beaver,) urged me to pay him a viſit, &c. Note. I was then living in the Moravian Towm on this river, in the neighborhood of Cuſkuſkee. In April 1773, while on my paſſage down the Ohio for Muſkinghum, I called at Logan's ſettlement; where I received every civility I could expect from ſuch of the family as were at home.
