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 . . .
