Hostilities still rage between Georgia and the Creek Indians.

Knox informs the President of the state of Georgia's war with the Creeks. He includes a biographical description of Creek chief Alexander McGillivray and why he believes McGillivray distrusts Georgia. He describes three treaties Georgia entered into with the Creek Nation. This document (6 July) is the second part of the original report on Indian Affairs that Knox sent to the President on 15 June 1789. On 7 July 1789, Knox sends parts three and four of his views pertaining to the Indian nations South of the Ohio to the President.
