Sir

Gentlemen.

I have been directed by his Excellency Governor
Sevier to inform you , that your report of the 8th of
February, on the Subject of the road leading through
the Cherokee Nation into the State of Georgia, which
has lately been cut and opened by Adam Peck, had
come to hand, and that the report is of such a
nature that he cannot act upon it.-

The Excecutive wishes you as soon as may
be convenient, to report specially and particularly the
State and condition the road was in when you viewed it
First- whether the road is cut and opened on the ground
marked out, by Joseph McMinn, Samuel Wear and John
Cowan Esquires Commissioners appointed for that purpose, or not,
