[ Enclosure ] Extracts of a letter from James Seagrove Agent of Indian affairs to Constant Freeman dated Fort Fidius 28^th September 1793. "I am most unpleasantly situated with respect to the business I set out on. I find that I am opposed by the armed force of this frontier Militia in my endeavours to give them peace. Parties are continually out between this and the Oakmulgee to intercept me or any Indians or Messengers from, or to me, and yet they have not been successful. I have received expresses from the nation since I have been here, and from appearances of matters in that quarter, I am led to believe I can settle matters to satisfaction of the general government, if not counteracted by the the bad conduct of the people of Georgia. A party of about one hundred men under command of Col^t. Alexander, and others went from Lyon County on the 15^th instant and on the 20th entered a small Indian town on the Chataucha river about forty five miles above the Calpulah town killed one Indian man, brought off as prisoners one man and four women. This information I have received from Flem Barnard who is now here, he had it from four Indians who were and report after him and overtook him on the road the 17th instant; I cannot find that the white party lost any men. I cannot discover by what authority these parties are sent out but think it very unwarrantable. I have wrote Governor Telfair to put a stop to such practises in his State but as usual I have no reply to my request or any notice taken of so serious an application. There is a number of Indians now waiting for me
