The whole loads of the new population is divided into three classes remaining in the different lines or levels, marked by their habits, property and right character. The first class of men called the forest men, is the first line of the Indian peoples. These are, properly speaking, nomads. They do not cultivate the land and do not have another job apart from cruising among the forests and trading with wildlife nations. They often spend years among the deserts and have no permanent habitat. Hut covered with bark and supported on two poles, great fire built from the eastern side, a long blanket they use as a cover when going to rest, legs turned to the fire and head under the roof, (...) As soon as they perceive that the number of animals is reduced and that the population grows and there is the need to set up court - house, they move forty or fifty miles away, to look for , they say, more food resources and more freedom and they do not want to do with justice. (...) Forest people are followed by the first settlers, that is the second line. First settlers have many similarities to the forest men, however, they are more permanently settled, eat less food from hunting, breed cattle, clean pieces of land from roots, however always no larger than needed, and they lead a more settled way of life, a bit more carefully arrange their accommodation . Their sheds (...) are wider at the top than at the bottom, have slits everywhere, and sometimes tend to be surrounded by huge, twelve feet high palisades, they are made from trees not treated, among which the remaining empty spaces are clogged with clay mixed with chaff, roof is sometimes covered with bark or chips of wood, a chimney consists of stones arranged in a column at the end wall of the dwelling (...). It often happens that the wild people take vengeance on them and sometimes attack their headquarters. Then the American defends himself fiercely, his wife does not hesitate to take a gun in her hand, and standing at one of the slits, she still shoots it; (...) As long as the savages do not master by betrayal a similar house or are unable to set fire, their attack is almost always ineffective and the American remains invincible, but then he must stay for a whole month closed, for fear of being approached, until the gifts and agreements alleviate the anger of the savages and an alliance with them is concluded. The former nomads usually stay in one place for five or six years , later the entire population, always moving forwards, gives way to the so-called great - settlers, who constitute a third line, and are the real farmers, receive some reward from those who occupy their place, not as the value of the land, which to them almost never belong, but for work they have done there, and above all to preserve their friendship. The third class called great - settlers is made up of prosperous farmers of various state who have a big family and have gone into the country in search of a cheaper land, so that having more of it, they could give each child a separate settlement. But in relation to independence, which their small fortunes provided them , they are cautious and seeking safety for their families so they do not want to be very close to savages; (...) Because the great - settler takes possession of new lands , he soon demolishes the hut of his predecessor and in its place builts a decent house, a good piece of carpentry work ; he grubs great spaces, surrounds them with ditches, plants meadows and gardens, and lives in security, abundance and happiness.
