Gopy of a letter from Brigadier-General Clarke
to bis H r nor the Governor , dated Wafloingion,
Mao zj, 1789, io o'Clock at night.
8 I R,
YESTERDAY evening, four o’clock, I re
ceived information from the Creeks, brought
by five headmen of the Cherokees, who had
attended at the Creek nation to fettle a difpntc
between the two nations. The express came
upwards of two hundred miles in three days
from the Cherokee.*, informing that three
hundred Creeks set oil from their towns the
2 2i\ indent ; and that a runner was sent to
-tlft Cmvttas for iwriiliiT hundred to join them,
! wai informed that their iuftmttioni arc,
to fail on the frontiers of Georgia, and com
mence honilmes near the Cherokee Corner,
t e 28th laftanr. I sent express to alarm the
different parts, and in the mean time ordered
that a part of the militia Ihould march to their
relief. Ihe express returned at four o’clock
this afternoon, wuh accounts that a fort was
attacked near that place this morning by thir
ty Indians, and a confiderabie number more
difeovered in different places. O ne man was
killed at the fort. The militia firft: raised will
be on the ground this evening.'; I am coi
e mg a reinforcement, and am in hopes to
be there myfelf to-morrow with five hundred
men. Thele Cherokees farther fay, that they
under flood that five hundred Creeks were or
dered to the lower parts of Georgia; and
that they saw the three hundred firft mentioned
draw their ammunition and march, with or
ders from M'Gilliviay to breax up the new
counties at all events by burning houl'es;
and in case of refinance, to kill and take
their property. .. From these, and other co
operating circumfiances, I have every reason
to believe they aie determined on hostilities.
VVe are entirely out of ammunition, and hope
a iupply will be foi warded asfoon as possible.
1 lliall call on the Coutratfor for fupphes, and
hope it will meet with approbation.
I am with due refpett and efieem, ’ -
Your Honor’s most obedient and
Moil humble fervaut,
