Commander of the Federal Army
in the Indian country,and Major Campbell,
Rationed at the fort lately e reded by the
British on the banka of the Miamis: Sever
al letters paflhd on both sides, in the last of
which the Major lavs, “ 1 mufi fall adhere,
Sir, to the purport of my letter tbit morning,
to deJiri that your army, or individuals be
longing to it, vjill not approach •within reicb
of mp cannon without expt Sing the confequenr
et attending it” The only notice taken of
this threat by Gen. Wayne, was by im
mediately fating fireto and dellroyipg er,
try thing within view of the fort, and even
under the muzzles of the Guns—Had Mr.
Campbell carried his threatnings into exc
cuiion, it is more than probable he would
have experienced a storm.
