Many loaded guns wenc off when the houfes were burning. [ had almoft forgot to tell you that we intended to fave -Sugar-"['own, as the place neareft the fort (where they even had aftockade fort) : Centries were placed for the fecurity of. the town, but we found the body of a dead man, whom they had pu: to the torture that very maorning, it was then no longer poffible to think of Mercy.

I dare fay, the whole nadon will readily come 1nto terms, and. will not be very fond of breaking them ; and [ think peace wirh them is a very defirable event for this province. We fhall make ufe of Tiftowe and the old warrior of Eftatoe, by fetiiog them at liberty, to inform their nation, that tho’ they are in our power, we sre ready to give them peace, as they were formerly friends gnd. allieato the white peoples And we fhall . fend offan expre(s thisevening to Capt.

We fhall only contirue here nntill we have fettled with the Cherokees. It will be -neceflary that you fhould write a letter, to encoursge fome of the rangers to -carry fiour and catle to Fort Loudoun, & thank them for their behaviour kere. They have afted with [pirit, have done whatfoever they were ordered, and have been of great ufe to the detachment. " ¥ 'Capt.

Bu: thank Hcaven, thro’ the Bravery of our Officers and Troops in that City, they were repulled. They have now no Hr-pes of recovering their Capital.
