"On Friday, the Big Warrior's son arrived with the Talks from the Chief of Tookaubatchee. They were in Council seventeen days. Nine of the murderers have been executed--four in the presence of Mr. Doyell, at the Hickory-Ground. It was not in their power to take them alive; they fought till they dropt. Two of the friendly Indians were badly wounded. The Little Warrior, who headed the party that did the mischief near the mouth of the Ohio, and one or two of his companions, are still living; but the warriors are after them and are determined to have them dead or alive. The perpetrators of the murder on the post road have been discovered and put to death. Two interpreters and five warriors accompanied Gen. Flournoy thro' the nation."
