We hereby promise to the representatives appointed by the Great Governments in Apia.

1. We will truly observe the neutrality of the territory bounded by the promontory of Tiapepe and bounded by Letogo, and will not collect together within these two places.

The boundary is established as follows: It begins at the promontory of Tiapepe and goes inland from there in Suisega through the Suisega Reservation, continues straight across following the military road; then the boundary goes from there to Suisega and comes over Vaea behind the house of the Roman Catholic missionaries, crossing behind the houses of Tanumamanono where it joins with Lafalafa and crosses to the water of Letogo. It returns to the Falane Plantation and its land and houses, continuing to the cemetery and Rev. Weber's land and houses, a short distance inland from Tanumamanono.

2. If war shall break out then we will not again raise our flag over the neutral territory; then also the representatives appointed to our Government shall go away from Mulinuu; it is prohibited also to the armies [war parties] to assemble or remain on the neutral territory when the war takes place, or to pass over the boundaries.
