In his instructions to Henry Woodward, dated May 23, 1674, Lord Shaftesbury says: "You are to consider whether it be best to make a peace with the Westoes or Cussitaws, which are a more powerful nation said to have pearle and silver and by whose Assistance the Westoes may be rooted out, but no peace is to be made with either of them without Including our Neighbour Indians who are at amity with us."1 (Swanton)
