He was trying to show the view of the Native Americans from a peer's experiences. He believed that the clash between the whites and Native Americans was because they didn't respect each other's customs and beliefs. Franklin wanted to give the Native Americans a voice. The Indian men, when young, are hunters and warriors, when old, counselors; for all their government is by counsel of the sages; there is no force, there are no prisons, no officers to compel obedience, or inflict punishment. Hence they generally study oratory, the best speaker having the most influence. The Indian women till the ground, dress the food, nurse and bring up the children, and preserve and hand down to posterity the memory of public transactions. These employments of men and women are accounted natural and honorable. Having few artificial wants, they have abundance of leisure for improvement by conversation. Our laborious manner of life, compared with theirs, they esteem slavish and base; and the learning, on which we value ourselves, they regard as frivolous and useless. An instance of this occurred at the Treaty of Lancaster, in Pennsylvania, anno 1744, between the government of Virginia and the Six Nations
A summary should include key points from what you have read or learned. Basically meaning that you should include the main idea, basic ideas, and other small points as well. When making a summary there is no need to include ALL of the original piece but just key points as explained before. So to make it easier I will write everything down into a list.
Include a thesis (explain what the text was trying to achieve)
Include the topic sentence
Include key points (main points and phrases)
Include major supporting points
Include explanations
Include your a concluding sentence as well
Include any extra information that you feel should be added.
This should be able to help you write a summary. If you feel that there is something missing you can always google it but anyways these points should give you an idea as to what needs to be in a summary.
Hope this helps!
