killed, and two wounded, on the Oconer Having communicated all that appears material at present. I remain Sir &^c— Skelth from Kiernand and other chiefs. The Cusitah King, the Mad Dog of the Tuckabachee, The White Lieutenant, and myself have sent you an answer to your talk sent by our friend George Galphin. Hatchela Town, 16^th May 1792. My Friend. When the Indians killed M^r Slemmy, and some others on St. Marys, I received a letter from you which surprized me and the rest of your friends very much. We all know very well that when we held the talk with you at the treaty, that if there should be any mischief done on either side, that satisfaction ought to be given. But when the people heard they were to be delivered up to you the Tallasee King raised the affair again and sent out and had more killed, so that we could do nothing in it. The heads of your friends towns were determined to give satisfaction, but after there was so many of your people killed it was out of our power to do any more with them. The names of the Towns that were always against the frontiers is the Cowetas, Broken Arrow, Uchees, Uuchees and the Tallasee, there was some of the Uchees that done the first mischief but it was a talk from the Uchees that made them turn out but they have left their Town and have gone and joined the others, and what is left of them is all peacable and are your friends. I have talked until I am tired, blaming the Cusitah King and the rest of our headmen, but to no purpose, so that the only plan we have concluded on is to send your people and give them a drubbing and burn their Towns and drive what property they have out of their land, and without this is done you may depend you never will get satisfaction. The Cusitahs is your friends and lives between the Cowetas and the Uchees, and hope they wont be hurt, as they mean to be still. If the white people should come by the Buzzard road, they and the Cusitahs are all one Town. There is a way to cross above the road straight to the Cowetas but hope they wont be at a loss for a pilot. There is two men now at the rock landing one for Ireland and one Donnelly that knows every path to this Country. So I would have you do just as we advise you and not to hurt any that lives at the rock, and I hope if any should come the road to my house, that they will not frighten our women and children for they might run into the woods and perish. Now my friend, I have advised you all I can, and if you should hurt any of my people round about me I will not think well of it. If you send up to take a brush with their towns perhaps there may be some about that may want to join them and if there should be any and I should be alive, I will let you know. The few towns is all that is against you which I have mentioned, there is the Tallasee river and the bare town are all our friends. I am informed General Clark is raising men to come against those Indians, and if he should meet any friendly Indians out a hunting, I hope they wont be hurt. You will oblige me very much when you receive this to send it up immediately to General Clark, and the rest of the Officers on the frontiers. I hope they will
