[No 32. To Major Gen^l Knox Sec^y of war — Legionville 29 Nov^r 1793 Sir, I have the honor to inform you that the Legion embarked at Pittsburgh yesterday morning & encamped at this place last evening without any accident — the ground is now staking out for the Huts of the respective Corps and and we have a flattering prospect of soon being under cover. There have been some alarms or reports of Indians being seen in the vicinity of Camp — and the commanding officer at Big Beaver block house writes me that they have arrived of three horses from the mouth of the the Ohio — one was seen within 400 yards of the Block house & fired at by Cap^t Sparks, in consequence of which I detached Major Clark on monday morning with a select corps of Rifle men to endeavour to come up with them; them, or, if should turn out to be a false alarm, to use every means in his power to discover the persons or persons who occasioned it, and to bring them under guard home. I have not yet received any account from him — upon the whole I am rather inclined to believe that it will turn out to be a false alarm — By a person who landed at this place we have information that Lieut. Prior with the Indian chiefs had arrived at Marietta, I may be hourly expected at this place — I also expect the Corn Planter in the course of a few days but have not as yet received any direct account of the terms upon which the hostile Indians have condescended to grant peace to the United States of America. I have the honor to be with true estem your most obed^t & very hum^e Serv^t Ant^y Wayne [Bottom: on Maj Gen^l Knox Sec^y of war] mills under the effect of Lieut. Prior as soon as they arrive. — I am Sir with true esteem your most obed^t & very hum^e Serv^t Ant^y Wayne The Hon^ble Major Gen^l Knox Secretary of war —
