- Correspondence between Virgil H. Barber and John G. Deane, Esq. Barber was a Jesuit priest assigned to Old Town until his recall in 1830. Here he transmits the Penobscot Tribe's answer to Deane's proposed sale of two townships near Mattawamkeag. "And what do white people suppose we must think when we see they wish to take from us one piece of land after another, till we have no place to stand on, unless it is to drive us, our wives, and our little children away? But if so great and so free a country as this would exterminate us, we have no chance anywhere else; we or our children must sooner or later be driven into the salt water and perish."
