reciprocal accusations of betrayal to indians and murder, authenticated in journals, seen as evidence of depraved morals.
Event Details
North Carolina's remonstrance accuses the infant principality of Franklin of betraying their parent state to Indians; Franklin retaliates by charging North Carolinians with murder. The commentary sarcastically notes the influence of doctrines from Price and Franklin, suggesting both accusations are likely true and exemplify American folly in quitting British care.
