William J.W. Wellborn at the executive office in Milledgeville writes to Georgia Governor William Schley (1835-1837) on June 19, 1836 to update Schley on recent communications and transactions, particularly those related to arms shipments. Wellborn explains that he sent arms to Floyd and Walker counties and will send a shipment to Cherokee County shortly. He tells Schley that he responded to a letter from General Hemphill that pertained to Indians, but Wellborn believes that there is little danger imminent, except to citizens of the lower territory that borders Alabama. Colonel (Charles H.?) Nelson's position is discussed with regard to the end of what he refers to as "the Creek War" and the "difficulties with the Cherokees". Nelson reported to Wellborn that he heard of the ratification of a treaty (possibly the Treaty of New Echota, 1835) in the Forsyth Court House. This letter is related to a later letter tcc582 from Wellborn to Schley.

Augustus Crawford of Madison County writes to Georgia Governor William Schley 1835-1837) to report on the status of volunteer troops in the county. He discusses resistance among some citizens to report for service, but assures the governor that most are eager to serve. According to Crawford, approximately 150 volunteers are available for service in the Cherokee Nation or the Upper Creek territory; however, they prefer not to be sent to Florida to fight the Seminoles, especially during the warmer months. Crawford mentions that the Seminole leader Osceola "out-generaled" both Winfield Scott and Duncan L. Clinch. The original enclosure is no longer attached.
