Today in Chickamauga History - July 30

‍

1757, July 30: From George Washington to John Stanwix - After an angry party of Cherokee returned from Pennsylvania to Winchester and forced the release of the ten Indians on 2 July attesting that they were indeed Cherokee, they let Atkin know, Atkin reported to the commander of Fort Prince George on the twenty-second, “that on the Night of the same Day (the 12th) that I committed the 10 Indians, One of the Cherokees then here run off to go the shortest Way to Old Hop to inform him thereof and that the white People had broke out a War with them. Wherefore to prevent the ill Consequences that may arise therefrom, they desired me to send a Letter by Express, together with one they send by two Indians to satisfie the Nation on this Particular. I desire that you will immediately on Receipt hereof communicate the Contents to Wauhatchee of Keowee and some other Head Men of the Lower Towns and send the same forward in the quickest Manner possible to the Commanding Officer at Fort Loudoun [a fort built by South Carolina in the Cherokee Country at the request of the Cherokee], over the Hills to communicate the same to Old Hop and his Headmen” (McDowell, S.C. Indian Affairs, 1754–1765, 406–8). - https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Washington/02-04-02-0228
