| Description: | Letter dated March 29, 1825 from Creek Chief William McIntosh via Samuel Hawkins to Georgia Governor (and McIntosh's cousin) George M. Troup. McIntosh inquires about the ratification of a recent treaty (probably the Treaty of Indian Springs, 1825) and the hostilities that may follow.
