contracting for the Seminole war
Dear Gcncral-Now my proposition, is to take
this war upon contract. If the General Govern
mcnt will pay me eight hundred thousand dollar,
in good hard money, drafts on pet banks will no,
be received, | will engage (wi,hont any " any 81
ia 0Homdnccs'') to drive every Creek cut of the
Two States in less than six months. will ust take
a couple of coiton-epaulcitcd Colonies, out of our
pine woods, with many regiments from
llcklebcrry swamps, and III make every copper
faced rascal of an Indian, scanpcr ont of the nation
like rabbits from woods afire and (if you'll close
the contract, before hucklebcry season is over
that may not have TO buy provisions) I'll engage
that every one of my soldiers gets home time
nongi to make crop of peas and potatoes, and
three hundred dollars in his pockeI. My boys
will give 'em none of your wine drinking play-sct-
ing, trace chain shooting play: they'll give them
swamp for swamp, bush for bush, tree for tree, and
give em rosum besides. The truth is, friend
Hickory, we don't want any more imported Gene
ra Is to learn how TO fight with the Indians.
We learned little about that at Bradd0ck's de-
feat. Just hand over your war to us cow-drvers,
and let us manage in our own way, and well show
youa thing or two that will tickle you that you'll
not curse any more for week. But la you
know what we ae if we have but halfa chance.
And look what saving to the government
All the public shooting irons saved, all the clothing,
all Tie provisions and the three millions two hun
dred thousand dollars besides !! This is another
sort of contract to your Rip Raps. Pray let me
hear from you Immediately. BOB SHORT.
