that he was a great favorite with many of them and that
oven those who had heen settled with and paid off in full,
were in tho Imbit of coming to him for small sum* ol
ni.uioy or article* iu the story, and I do not know tluit one
ever applied ta hiui in vain. Shorter was always ready
to listen to anv complaint of mi Indian in regard to any
error iu their business, and corrected it if it existed—up-
o i one occasion I remember that an Indian, I think bv
the nauift of Si.lar-ehi, was understood to complain that
ilia land had been sold by the, wrong Indian. Shorter
sent for hint,explained to’ him the case, and offered to
nay him two hundred dollars rather than have auy dis
pute about it a* the contract had been approved and re*
gold : to tjiis the Indian agreed and the amount was puid
him iu money. This was before any investigation had
been ordered or spoken of. Of (lie the purchase* made
bv J. J. Fannin, up to a given time, Shorter & Gordon bad
two-thirds. I know that lor those lauds Shorter and
(•urdou puid to Funuin the full certified price*, for I was

I, William C. Riasell, do state, that I was for some
li.lie principal clerk for E. Corley dfcCo. in Alabuma
during the time of their purchase of Indian reservations
—that Eli S. Shorter frequently iu person, and by letter
urged JolmS. Scott and all oilier* connected with the
business to be caution* in the purchase of land—by all
lusaiis to dcul with the trim and proper owners—to avoid
doubtful and disputed case*, and to let ulonethe business,
contracts and Indians of other purchasers. Shorter ap
peared to me privately to watch over n* well as 1 could,

the late excitement were actually engaged in j steadiness, d
ai der*, and ill the destruction of property, and
undsr Captain Jernigam and the re-inibrreitiout sent
j hence, under Major Hoxiu, a capture of the whole
body of the fugitive* scum* to be iu«\itablr. The
other hostile party will, probably, from tlie measure*
( iu operation, share the satire fate. In tire late Greek
• country tire number of tire uireiuv to bo captured or
forced to surrender, i* considered quite iucousidera-
' ble.
! Major General Scott regrets, tliut, from the sud-
J demies* of hi# sspurntion from the Army, the- op
portunity i* lo*r to him of doing that full justice to
all the corps lie ha* had the honor to commaml,
which their patriotism, seal, and gallantry claim ut
hi* hands, und indeed tiuiu the highest source*-—tho
government uud country.
To Hi* Excellency, tire Governor of Georgiu,
who ha* reumiued ou the frontier iu order to lend
hitnrelf iu every way powerfully to the prosecution
of the wur, ths particular tlmnk* of Maj. Geireml
Scott ure due. Before the Georgia line could Ire
mustered into the service of the United State*, Hi*
Excellency had tnudo dispositions of his armed
troops, not only to protect hi* own frontier, hut to
prevent tire escapu of tire enemy in the direction of
Florida. Thi* w a* the gruul danger to be guurded
against, end ull that zeal and ability could effect ou
Ins part, hu* been put in pructica uud accomplished.
It i* hoped that this slight acknowledgment made to
ths G'bicf Magistrate of a powerful und patriotic
Slate may not be deemed impertinent because com
ing from a military functionary of the United States.
It i* eminently deserved. Of the Georgiu litre,
which Its* constantly acted under the immediate ob
servation of Maj. Geu’l. Scott, Ire will ever Ire hap
py tu speak in term* of the highest approbation.
That line, hire, under it* immediate and able com
mander, Maj. Gen. Sanford, throughout evinced the
beat dispositions—a readiness to obey orders, to
march against the enemy, uud to win honor for itself,
for Geni'giu. and the Union.—The gi ester part of it,
for a long time, was held inactive for the want of
anus, which hy a series of strange accident*, failed
to arrive, w hilst other portions of lire same line, in
position* on the river, had freqdeut ami severe com-
• I bats w itli lire enemy. In these, if the Georgian de- j
lachinent* were uni always successful they at least
were ready lo oppose an obntiuute resistance, to an-
perior number*. Captains, Garniaiiy, Jornignn,
Ball, and Flewellen, w ith their companies, won foi
themselves much distinction on those xiccasious,
whilst Gaptnin* Dawson and Pearson, cruising with
tlreir companies on board steamboats, rendered
highly valuable services. Gapt. Dawson on sever
al occasion* displayed the greatest judgment and
intrepidity in marching to the relief of the fixed
post*, and landing in the presence of the eutrny, iu
order to destroy his means of passing the river.
Of the Alnhama line, w ith tire exception of Bri
gadier General Moore’s Hiignde. Maj. Gen. Mcoft
cannot speak either from his own observation, or on
a direct correspondence. Major Gen. Jc**up. him
self an able commander anil a competent judge, in
his reports, speak* highly of Major Gen. Patterson
aud Ins division, and it is directly known that Bri
gadier General Moore, placed on the lower border
of operations, has, acting almost independently,
made able dispositions of his Brigade and hu* cup-
