Note 4 — CHRONICLES OF BORDER WARFARE (continued 2)

Preston’s Journal does not lay much stress on Hogg’s delay. Norton’s Journal, speaking of Hogg, says, “common soldiers were by him scarcely treated with humanity,” and he seems to have regularly overruled and disobeyed Lewis. There was much rancor in camp, and Norton writes of the Cherokee allies, “The conduct and concord that was kept up among the Indians might shame us, for they were in general quite unanimous and brotherly.”––R.
