Daniel Claus and family fonds : C-1478:
Detroit
the 21st of July 1781
Dear Sir,
I am favored with your letter by Surphlet who seems very impatient to get back to you--the Hurons left this yesterday, and in two or three days Mr. Chene will move with the Ottawas, Chippewas, Pottawatamies & ___ I shall send the little sloop Adventure to Roche de Bout with provisions and some clothing for the Warriors. Mr. Laurimer I am told spares you... .
...will have no enemy to oppose but the inhabitants of Kentuck unless Clark should bring 50 or an hundred with him...
The man you mention coming with letters from Post Vincent - to this place has not yet made his appearance.
[Sent by] AT. S. DePeyster
[To] Alex McKee, Esq.
