United States, Georgia, 32.75042, -83.50018Georgia. Governor (1809-1813 : Mitchell)1813-08-04Georgia Governor David B. Mitchell (1809-1813 and 1815-1817) writes to Brigadier General David Blackshear on August 4, 1813, ordering him to proceed to the frontier to protect settlers against unnamed Indians until the regular troops arrive. Mitchell states that citizens on the frontier are frightened by the "present state of Indian hostility" (ostensibly referring to the Creek War, 1813-1814).
