I rejoice that he so immediately fufreed the highest penalty of the law, deadjat the hands of i his pursuers.. Accept, ft, [my thanks I for the particularity win (which you have reported the circuit fakes of this unhappy affair, and be plaki to present them to the five militia vho with Inch agility, under your ordet, give pursuit to the murderer of Black, aid put him to death. Instant retaliiiojt tor killing a man under such circunilinces, upon the guilty, by any hand ailefo inflift it, cannot but meet the approbation ofeve ■>’ citizen of the UmtedjSjhtes, and, I may add of the world. I i|ali immedi ately nia ke known to the ii raging Maw and the Cherokee Nationgpr.eraiiy, the manner cf the killing oflijr. Black, by George and of the immedale killing of George in retaliation; da 1 have no demy but with you, and ot!;er iiig the death of the form r, and will express ti.cir entire fatisfiticn in that of the latter. Thus you be, that Ico not believe, that the front it of Sevier county, have any (Tiger to ap prehend at the hands ot the merekees. . When they arc in danger, fey fhaii be j protected, if practicable. F<r a drunk j en man to commit acts of valence, is too common, amongst endives; and blood ior blood, is the high, price re quired by the laws of Goaf man.
