Sir

Since my last of 30th ultimo. I have had more Certain
information respecting the indian Affair on the
West fork of Piagion; the truth of the matter is,
that those three men mentioned in my last
fired on a camp of four indians, slightly
Wounded one and took from them two guns. The indians has since concluded
that if the guns are returned, they will be satisfied.

I have Wrote, their guns shall be sent to them,
if not, they shall have them, I expect to
have the guns got in a few days, and peace
Continued

I have the honor to be Sir
Your Mo. Obed. Hbl Sevt.
Signed
John Sevier
