The letter mentions Levy's land deal with Thomas and Mary Bosomworth (a.k.a. Mary Musgrove or Coosaponakeesa), that was undermined when the Bosomworths subsequently sold the same islands (Ossabaw and Sapelo) to the British Crown.  The islands had allegedly been granted to Mrs. Bosomworth by the Creek Indians.  The letter lists a number of agreements and indentures between Levy and the Bosomworths and between the Bosomworths and Henry Ellis (Royal Governor of Georgia, 1757-1760).  Levy asks Bull to review all of the papers and agreements listed in his letter and send his advice immediately.</dc:description><dc:description>Digital image and encoded transcription of an original manuscript, scanned, transcribed and encoded by the Digital Library of Georgia in 2001, as part of GALILEO, funded in part by a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services.</dc:description><dc:format>text/html</dc:format><dc:format>image/jpeg</dc:format><dc:identifier>krc048</dc:identifier><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:relation>Mode of access: World Wide Web.</dc:relation><dc:relation>System requirements: AT&amp;T DjVu browser plug-in needed to view images of documents.</dc:relation><dc:rights>http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/NoC-US/1.0/</dc:rights><dc:source>Manuscript held by the Hargrett Rare Book and Manuscript Library, The University of Georgia Libraries, Keith Read, box 02, folder 74, document 01.</dc:source><dc:subject>Creek Indians--Land tenure</dc:subject><dc:subject>Indian land transfers</dc:subject><dc:subject>Bosomworth, Thomas</dc:subject><dc:subject>Musgrove, Mary, 1700-1765</dc:subject><dc:title>[Letter] 1760 Sept. 12, London, England, [to] Fenwick Bull</dc:title><dc:type>Text</dc:type></oai_dc:dc>
