Something Something Sir I have the honor to inform you that we have succeeded in getting the Miami Emigration under way- [illegable] The band [illegible] in which the Indians are (5 in member?) left [illegable] yesterday, and have all [illegible] through this [illegible] to day in their way to Cincinnatti, when the Indians will go on board? a [illegable] [illegable] to be taken to [illegable] from which place they will provide by land to their country on the Osage River. The presence of the Military force has contributed very materially to being this happy [illegable] about?; and I cannot speak too highly of the conduct of Capt. J... and the force under his command. There has been no acts of [illegable] [illegable] by the Indians on each other during the collection and sep? to this time? More? do I anticipate any thang of the kind during their journey. The Chief will go with his people in their new hones, and on their arrival there I shall take him and the [Illegable] men of the tribe all through their land, and hope to [illegable] [illegable] to satisfy them, that it is as good as it has been represented to them to be in which case it will not be [illegable] before most? of them who are [illegable] to remain here will emigrate of their own free will.
