The subjoined premable and resolution,
introduced By Mr.. Owens, we're called up
on Saturday last, and unanimously agreed
| to by the Legislature :.
Whereas some of the members of thi. Le-
sislature, have received information from a
gentleman of responsibility, just from the
Greek nation, stating that he was informed
by the Indians, that there were three In
dams belonging to the Greek nation who
had lately returned home badly wounded,
and that they received their wounds in a
light the white people and Indians had IL
Florida, which circumstance if true, land
IL appears to be well authenticated III the
opinion of this legislature is sufficient
proof OF the hostile disposition of con,id-
cradle part of that nation towards the Uni
ted States. and particularly towards The
state of Georgia:
Be it therefore resolved by the Senate &
House of Representative that H. Ex-
cellency the Governor of the state of Gcor-
gia, be and he is hereby authorized and re-
quested 10 direct Col Hawkins to cali on he
Iniefs of said nation to deliver the wound
ed Indians if alive, and such other wounded
Indians as were engaged in the late a ton
in Florida, to such persons &c at such time
and place as his EXcelency may appoint !;
and that sixty days be allowed to the In
dams TO make such delivery.

by authority, and was not known to great
many until after night, the illumination was
