| Title: | [Letter] 1814 Nov. 3, Flint River, [to] Colo[nel] B[enjamin] Hawkins / Tim[oth]y Barnard |
| Date: | 1814 Nov. 3 |
| Description: | This is a letter dated November 3, 1814 from Timothy Barnard, an influential trader living among the Cusseta (Creek) Indians, to Colonel Benjamin Hawkins, U.S. Agent to the Creeks. Barnard tells Hawkins that his son, Timpuge (Timpoochee?), has just arrived and has reported that (John?) Kennard (also Kinnard) told him that a party of Red Stick Creeks was on its way. He remarks on the efforts of certain chiefs to distance themselves from the hostile party. This letter also discusses the influence of Perryman (probably Thomas Perryman) and an unidentified British officer in inciting the Red Sticks. Document ID: tcc683.
