Meriwether, JamesGlascock, ThomasBlair, JamesUnited States, Georgia, 32.75042, -83.50018Campbell, Duncan Green, 1787-18281823-01-20Copy of a letter dated January 20, 1823 from United States Commissioners Duncan G. Campbell and James Meriwether and Georgia Commissioners Thomas Glascock and James Blair to the leaders of the Cherokee Nation concerning a negotiation meeting. The commissioners would like to meet with the leaders of the Cherokee Nation, but have not been successful thus far in convincing the Cherokees to attend. Much of the letter consists of arguments for the Cherokees' attendance. The Cherokees' refusal to meet with the commissioners is largely due to their belief that the commissioners merely want to treat for more land, and the Cherokees do not intend to part with any more land.
