Captain Randolph to James Seagrove Colerain Station 30^th June 1793 Sir, This day (after sun went went out) M^t M^cDonald arrived from the nation, he informed me that he saw some Indians on the path. He first said that they were six miles and afterwards that they were twenty miles from the station I immediately sent out seven men in order to discern their trail, they took it, and fell in with the Indians near Spanish Creek, one of the Indians on coming up to them, snapped his gun at M^t Stell (who was one of the party) within less steps of him, our people then charged on them and killed them all four in number, without loosing a man, they got five excellent horses from them which in wanted much – Alexander Young Esq^r and M^t Wright was here todays they want to take possession of Buckland Blochlines, they have but their own I think it will be necessary to send a Sergeant and one more to assist them they are in want of ammunition, but am afraid I cannot spare them any. I am &^c John T Randolph
