Cussetahs pledge continued friendship. Because so many whites have been killed, do not see that they can influence matters any longer. Ask that the U.S. give a drubbing and burning to the perpetrators listed as Cowetas, Broken Arrow, Uchees, Usichees, Tallasse. Chiefs ask that Cussetah town and people be spared. Proceeded to give directions on how best to go after the Cowetas, while sparing Cussetahs. Provided names of guides who know the paths. Chiefs say they will not think well of it if their people are hurt. They hear that General Clark of the Georgia militia makes preparations. Ask that he not hurt the innocent.
