Title: Rufus Putnam draft letter to person unknown
Author: Putnam, Rufus, 1738-1824
Description: Putnam, writing from Marietta, probably to Henry Knox, Secretary of War, transmits the original treaty of peace signed with the Indians at Vincennes, delayed because of his illness following the negotiations. He arrived at Marietta only two days ago. There is no word from the Delawares and other tribes whom he invited to meet him at the mouth of the Muskingum. [Letter is dated 20 September 1792, but should be 20 December 1792.]
