{"value"=>"Supposes Col. Cruger has told of the alarms on the frontier; has a good idea of the temper of the people in the neighborhood; considers Williamson the only man to be trusted; has written of the conduct of Mr. King; has received complaints of Mr. Lowery by the people whose horses he had seized; had promised payment; as they are not loyalists they may make trouble; a body of 300 mountaineers from Wotaga is giving trouble; considers the Indians of little good but they may be used as bug-bears to the settlers; the overseers on the Saluda are doing well; fears trouble about the negroes who should be furnished with clothing and paid for their work."}
