Full Description:
Alexander McGillivray to Colonel John Stuart. Creek Nation. Desires the Euply town chiefs to be allowed to purchase necessaries.. Friends uneasy about about the trade. Will have a meeting soon. The Cowetas behave well; they still attack the rebels and large parties are now out. An Abeeootchie party will turn out before long. In short al that has come in from hunting declare themselves much in our favour. I can assure you that 'our party is far beyod the Oakfuskees and hope by May to make them look small''. While the Cowetas, Chehaws, and Onekas are for us they will carry their point from the whole Nation. Nothing material on the rebel sides happening as being watched very closely.
