&c. &c. The nation of the Pottawatamies dwelt at about a mile below the fort; the Wyandots a little lower down, on the eastern side of the strait; and five miles higher up, but on the same eastern side, the Ottawas. On the first day of May, Pontiac entered the fort with about fifty Major Gladwin to Sir J. Amherst, 14 May, 1763, enclosure No. 9 in Amherst to Egremont, 27 June, 1768. of his warriors, announcing his purpose in a few days to pay a more formal visit. He appeared on the seventh, with about three hundred warriors, armed with knives, tomahawks and guns, cut short and hid under their blankets. Same to same. He was to sit down in council, and when he should rise, was to speak with a belt white on one side and green on the other; Mante's History of the War, 486. and turning the belt was to be the signal for beginning a general massacre.

These are the only occasions on which, as it would appear, the speech would not have been out of orde: Journal of the House of Commons, XXIX. 695, 698. Annual Register, for 1764.

For the House of Lords now to consent to its repeal would in some sort be an abdication of its co-ordinate authority. Once more, on the morning of the seventh, Rockingham, forgetting alike the principles of the old whig party and of the British constitution, which forbid the interference of the king with the legislature, hurried to court, and this time asked and obtained leave to say, that the king was for the repeal of the Stamp Act; and he made haste to spread the intelligence. The evening of that same day, Grenville resolved to test the temper of the house, and made a motion tending to enforce the execution of all acts, meaning chap. XXII
