United States, Georgia, 32.75042, -83.50018Sturges, Benjamin H.1819-05-20Letter dated May 20, 1819 from surveyor Benjamin H. Sturges to unnamed Governor of Georgia (probably William Rabun, 1817-1819) informing him that the running of the Indian boundary line has been indefinitely postponed because no Indian guard could be secured to escort the surveyors. Sturges complains that Chief William McIntosh has refused to furnish a guard. He mentions recent news regarding the activities of the Seminoles as further reason a guard is needed.Digital image of original manuscript, scanned by the University of Georgia Libraries in 2000, as part of GALILEO, funded in part by a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services.text/htmlimage/jpegtcc010engMode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: AT&T DjVu browser plug-in needed to view images of documents.http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/NoC-US/1.0/Manuscript held by the Hargrett Rare Book and Manuscript Library, The University of Georgia Libraries, Telamon Cuyler, box 77, folder 33, document 03.SurveyorsCreek IndiansSeminole Indians[Letter] 1819 May 20, Fort Gain[e]s, [Clay County, Georgia to the Governor of Georgia] / Benjamin H.
