Troup. In reply to Troup's correspondence, McIntosh gives his consent to survey and run the boundary line between the United States and Creek Nation according to the recent Treaty of Indian Springs, 1825. McIntosh discusses the potential for hostility from Creeks opposed to the treaty and voices his confidence in Troup and the federal government to defend and protect the treaty signers. He mentions difficulties with John Crowell (federal agent to the Creeks), arrangements for further property sales, and his intention to go see the territory west of the Mississippi River. The Creek leader Little Prince notifies McIntosh of an upcoming meeting in Broken Arrow. McIntosh was killed on April 30, 1825 by Creeks opposed to the treaty.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/jpegtcc183engMode 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 78, folder 05, document 08.Creek Indians--Land tenureCreek Indians--TreatiesLetter, 1825 Apr. 12, Lock,chau Talo-fau or Acre Town [to] Geo[rge] M.
