Thanks for your patience during our recent outage. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed.

That the Hand on which these Indians were before seated appears to the Council a place equally well adapted to their security and protection as any within this Province. And therefore the Council unanimously advised his Honour not to receive the said Indians within this govern- ment or to suffer them to pass thro' the Province, but to have the proper orders to the justices and magistrates of Richmond County to stop and cause them to return.
