Extract of a Letter from Andrew Pickens Esquire to General Clarke Hopewell 28 .^th April 1793

"I received this morning by express from a friend that the whole of the Creek nation except the Cussetas had declared war against the United States that John Galphin with five hun dred Warriors, had set out about sixteen days ago to join the Seminoles and was to fall on the southern parts of Georgia but my information leads me to believe that they intend to make a blow all along the frontier of Georgia and this State.
