Book Description
Copy of a letter dated December 2, 1817 from Major General Edmund P. Gaines to David B. Mitchell, Creek Indian Agent (and Governor of Georgia 1809-1813, 1815-1817) reporting on recent skirmishes with Seminoles and other warring Indians in southern Georgia and Florida. A recent encounter between Lieutenant R.W. Scott's troops and Indians on the Apalachicola River just below the intersection of the Flint and Chattahoochee Rivers was a disaster for the U.S. Upwards of five hundred Indian warriors attacked Scott's boat, killing, wounding, and capturing nearly everyone, including several women. Gaines offers reasons for this loss, relates plans, and discusses his relationship with "friendly" chiefs in the area. The original enclosure is no longer attached.

Book Description
In Creek Paths and Federal Roads, Angela Pulley Hudson offers a new understanding of the development of the American South by examining travel within and between southeastern Indian nations and the southern states, from the founding of the United States until the forced removal of southeastern Indians in the 1830s. During the early national period, Hudson explains, settlers and slaves made their way along Indian trading paths and federal post roads, deep into the heart of the Creek Indians' world. Hudson focuses particularly on the creation and mapping of boundaries between Creek Indian lands and the states that grew up around them; the development of roads, canals, and other internal improvements within these territories; and the ways that Indians, settlers, and slaves understood, contested, and collaborated on these boundaries and transit networks. While she chronicles the experiences of these travelers--Native, newcomer, free, and enslaved--who encountered one another on the roads of Creek country, Hudson also places indigenous perspectives squarely at the center of southern history, shedding new light on the contingent emergence of the American South.

This is a letter dated December 2, 1814 from Henry B. Wigginton at the Creek Agency to Colonel Benjamin Hawkins, agent to the Creek Indians. Wigginton reports that someone called young (Barnard?) arrived at the Agency to report that he had been stopped from pursuing runaway slaves by the Chehaws, who told him that a war party was on its way to the Creek Agency. Barnard sent George Lovitt to relay this news to Hawkins and to his father (Timothy Barnard?). Barnard says that the elder Chehaws then went down and managed to temporarily stop the war party, and he asks that Hawkins provide the Uchees under his command with provisions so that they can remain on guard should the war party resume its course. Wigginton refers to Barnard's letter (no longer attached), and includes a note about having run across some of their hogs. Also mentioned are (Thomas?) Perryman's connection with the British and the escape of (John?) Canard's (also Kennard) slaves to an unnamed location.

This is a letter from Henry Jackson at Franklin College (the University of Georgia) in Athens to Governor David B. Mitchell (Governor of Georgia, 1809-1813 and 1815-1817) in Milledgeville.
