Town of Washington Novem- .ber 15. 1794. Sir- I had the honor of writing to you three days since by Mr.Vaughan. Nothing material has since occurred; except that a number ofpersons have been apprehended. Twenty ofthem are in con -finement at this place - others have not yet arri- -ved. Several of those, in confinement , are fit subjects for examples and it is probable from the evidence ) already collected & what is expected that enough for that purpose will be proved. The most conspicuous ofthese for character or crime are understood to bethe Reverend John Corbly, Col.Crawford, Col John Ham- -ilton, Thomas Sedgwick, David Lock, John Munn, John La[n]ghery - The evidence has not yet fixed the situa .tion of Col. Hamilton. A warrant has been sent after Col. Gad- -dis of Fayette another very fit subject but from the 176 lapse of lime. I fear he has escaped - The bad spirit is evidently not subdued. Information is just received that within the last three days a Pole has been erected about 161/2 milesfromthis place onthe road to Muddy Creek- mea-sures are taking on the subject. But it is more and more apparent that for for some considerable time to come a military force inthis country is indispensable. I presume the tem–porary one meditated will be accomplished. Tomorrow I leave this place for Pittsburgh.If nothing extraordinary happens I shall leavethat place for Philadelphia on the 19th - By that,time every thing will have taken it’s shape. With true respect + affec[c] attachment I have the honor to be, Sir Your Obed Servant. Alx Hamilton The President of, the U.States (Endorsed) From Col. Alex[r] Hamilton 15th Nov. 1794
