Excerpt from The Second War With England, Vol. 2 of 2

With promptness on the part of those co-operat ing with him, he saw that the hostile Creeks could be crushed with one blow; for on the west of their settlements were six hundred Mississippi volunteers and the 3d regiment of regular infantry, six hun dred strong, under Colonel Russel on the east were twenty-five hundred Georgia militia, command ed by General Floyd; while from the north, five thousand volunteers and militia - twenty-five hun dred from East Tennessee, under Generals Cooke and White, and the same number from the western sec tion of the State - Were moving down on the devoted tribes. This army of five thousand Tennesseans was under his own command, the western half of which he led in person. There were, besides this formida ble array, a few posts held by small detachments, and a few hundred friendly Indians, most of them Cherokees. When these separate armies should close around the hostile settlements, encircling them in a girdle of fire, it was universally believed that the war would be over.
