that long 'till the people can get their cattle back, but there is as great probability that the hunters in the woods may collect and drive them off, if so those people that have put their cattle over must abide by the consequences, as they have no right to carry on such irregular proceedings. I am amazed at the heads of the [undecipherable] bounty, that they will not oppose such measures at this critical juncture; there is now the Indians from the Northward nations trying all they can to set the Creeks on the frontiers of Georgia and such proceedings as these will be the effectual means to make the Creeks take their talks, besides our putting it out of the pow-er of any person to have a boundary line. I have to say and is for the very good, to enist for the settler on recpt of this to drive them dark back, if they do not. I have now discharged my duty and they must abide by the all consequences that may and will attend. Sam Sir. (Signed) Timothy Barnard The bearer of this, three of the head men of the [undecipherable] Creeks boys they may have a keg of rum apiece, and some corn and tobacco to bring with them, as I have got them to take down this letters if you give them a few articles the Governor will not be against it paying for it, as I can assure you, if their cattle are not removed over the rivers will be them all, and some of the hunters, it is necessary to keep peace, when the White people goes a head long to work, before the boundary lines is settled.
