The first is by the spilling of the blood of the nation by which they fell; the other by covering the bodies of the dead, and thus allaying the resentment of their relations.

This is done by making presents.
"Englishman, your king has never sent us any presents, nor entered into any treaty with us, wherefore he and we are still at war; and, until he does these things, we must consider that we have no other father, nor friend, among the white men, than the King of France; but, for you, we have taken into consideration, that you have ventured your life among us in the expectation that we should not molest you.

You do not come armed with an intention to make war; you come in peace, to trade with us, and supply us with necessaries, of which we are in want.

We shall regard you, therefore, as a brother, and you may sleep tranquilly, without fear of the Chipeways....

As a token of our friendship, we present you with this pipe to smoke." When Minavavana had finished his harangue, an Indian presented Henry with a pipe, the which, after he had drawn smoke through it three times, was carried back to the chief, and after him to every person in the room.
