Title
Probability of Approaching Indian Hostilities
Description
"I have received a letter from Colonel Strong dated at Detroit the 7th of May last. You will judge from the information which you shall have when this reaches you how far it may be expedient to reinforce this post and from what quarter. The enclosed extract of a letter to him may serve as a guide. I will only add that my view of the subjected, probably imperfect at this distance, does not impress me with the probablity of approaching Indian hostilities or with the necessity of further accumulation of force at Detroit."
