United States, Southern States, 33.346678, -84.119434Georgia. Governor (1809-1813 : Mitchell)1813-10-10This document is a copy of a letter from Georgia Governor David B. Mitchell (1809-1813, 1815-1817) to Major General Allen Daniel, dated October 10, 1813. Mitchell requests that Daniel be careful not to falsely alarm frontier residents with incorrect information about "hostile" Creek Indians in the vicinity. Mitchell believes that the Indians will not cross the Chattahoochee into Georgia land, particularly since a large group of Cherokees have encamped adjacent to them. Mitchell requests that information be gathered about the presence of Indians by means of spies and not an entire detachment, as a large gathering of militia men would make an easy target for the Red Stick Creeks.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/jpegtcc395engMode 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 46, folder 06, document 02.Cherokee IndiansCreek War, 1813-1814[Letter], 1813 Oct. 10, Milledgeville, [Georgia to] Major General Allen Daniel / [Governor of Georgia David] B.
