Extract of letter from General Twiggs with additional reason why troops did not proceed during expedition against Creeks at Oakmulgee

Notes that in addition to lack of provisions, he foresaw the likelihood that troops would have killed some of Cusseta nation hunting in small parties. This would have united friendly towns against his forces and produced evil consequences
