120, Col. James Smith. The people frequently came out and asked nie where we came from, &c. I told them the truth, but they, for the most part suspected my story, and I generally had to- shew them my pass. In this way I came on to Fort Chissel, where I left Jamie at Mr. Horton's negro- quarter, according to promise. I went from thence to> Mr. George Adams's, on Eeed Creek, where I had lodged, and where I had left my clothes, as I was go- ing out from home. When I dressed myself in good clothes,... and mounted on horseback, no man ever asked me for a pass ; therefore I concluded that a hor se- thief, or even a robber might pass without interruption, pro- vided he was only well-dressed, whereas the shabby villain would be immediately detected. I returned home to Conococheague, in the fall 1767. When I arrived, I found that my wife and friends had despaired of ever seeing me again, as they had heard that I was killed by the Indians, and my horse brought into one of the Cherokee towns. In the year 1769, the Indians again made incursions on the frontiers; yet, the traders continued carrying goods and warlike stores to them.
