• The paper alluded to by Opothleyahola, was of treasons the talk

ascertained to be some old proclamation from during the last war with England by Sir Geo. Cockburn commanding the English fleet, & was highly inflamatory & addressed to the Creek Indians and was no doubt the cause at that time of exciting them to make war on the Whites. Where these old proclamations could have been lying all this time is not yet discovered: But an Englishman who is a silversmith & resided for some time in Columbus Geo. was the man who rode among the Indians & read & explained these papers but took care to conceal the date, he is now in prison in Montgomery jail, this man says he is the natural son of Francis the Prophet, hung by order of Gen. Jackson and was borne in London at the time Francis visited England.
