Extract of a letter, from Charlestown, South Carolina, dated
September 13. The country is at present very sickly, owing
to some great rains which had occasioned floods in several
places. Three bodies of Indians, being the chiefs of there
different nations (Cherokees, Catabues, and Creeks) lately
arrived in town, and made peace with each other, at the same
time renewing their alliance with us. Friday and Saturday
they were shewn the armory, the church where the organs
play'd, the forts, where some shot were fired of 24 pound
weight, and whatever else was thought curious to them and
they are now return'd to their homes.
