http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/174141677

Letter addressed to "My dear sir" states that, according to manuscripts written by Stone's father, the meaning [of an unidentified term] is "he who finds two nations together". Stone also writes that he has two manuscript diaries written by Sir William Johnson while stationed at Niagara and at Oswego and these describe every bay, creek, and inlet between Oswego and Detroit, but there is no mention of Buffalo Creek.
