Copy of the Cusata King's talk delivered to [John Galphin], 1786 Apr. 11

This document is a copy of the Cusata King's talk sent to adopted Creek John Galphin, April 11, 1786. The talk warns that the Spaniards have sent a talk to the Creeks at Tellico in which they are urged to turn against the white people in upper Georgia. They are informed that the Choctaws and Chickasaws are complying with this request and are receiving arms and ammunition. The Cusatas indicate their unwillingness to join stating that they are friends with the Americans, but some Creeks have already been persuaded and have embarked on a mission to murder whites on the Georgia frontiers. The Cusata King requests that a peaceful talk from the Governor (of Georgia) be sent to the hostile parties in order to pacify them. John Galphin and Philip Scott intend to try to intercept the hostile groups and prevent them from committing any murders.
