1759, September 12, Letters to Indian Affairs

In a recent letter, Maurice Anderson reports on escalating tensions with the Setiquo People, who have initiated hostilities resulting in the death of several individuals, including Samuel Simmons and William Veal. Despite attempts to secure ammunition and protect cattle, the situation remains dire, with communication disrupted and no safe passage for settlers. Anderson mentions the involvement of a local figure in these attacks and relays urgent messages regarding threats to Captain Stuart. Supplies in the fort are dwindling, exacerbating the precarious situation.
