"They were then at war with the powerful and dreaded Senecas - whom Lawson styles Sinnagers. While he was at the Sapona town, some of the Toteras warriors came to visit their allies. Lawson was struck with their appearance. He describes them, In his quaint idiom, as 'tall, likely men, having great plenty of buffaloes, elks and bears, with every sort of deer, amongst them, which strong food makes large, robust bodies.' In another place he adds: 'These five nations of the Toteros, Saponas, Kelauwees, Aconechos and Scholoories are lately come amongst us, and may contain in all about 730 men, women and children.".
