Brunswick June 14th 1760

Sir,

Having Wrote to you a long letter the 30th of May of which I have herewith sent a Duplicate. I have only the further to add by this Conveyance, that I have received Dispatches from Lieutenant Governor Bull of the 31st of May; that the Upper Creeks have Killed our Traders, and declared War against South Carolina ad Georgia by the Indigations of the French; and they fear that the lower Creeks and Choctaws may be also drawn into the War; Upon which I Summoned a Council to meet me here yesterday, and by their Advice have by Proclamation summoned the Assembly to meet at Wilmington the 26th Instant, and have sent off dispatches by Express with it to avoid Delay; to try if the Spreading of the Flame of War will induce them to give a Supply and raise Men without Clogs or Delays now the Storm approaches; which, I hope, will put a Stop to the Attorney General's Infernal Schemes of inflaming the Province.

By this further proof of our future Dangers if the French continue in possession of Louisiana, his Majesty must think it necessary to avoid a future War in America, to Drive the French from thence; and in case the Spaniards should take Umbrage at our Increase of power in their Neighborhood; and it may be prudent at present not to have any Brangles with them, would it not be better to have that Settlement intirely vacated by both, or even given up to the Spaniards, than allow it to remain in the hands of the French. I have such an entire Dependance on Providence continuing to protect the Protestant Cause against the Papacy, that I make no doubt of an happy Issue to the War in Germany; and by Dispossessing the French of this Northern Continent from ^of^ Civilizing and Converting these misled Indian Nations, by the [Emitical] French Missionaries. Pardon my Zeal and Enthusiasm in predicting these things from Your Active Administration under the best of Kings in Support of the Apostolic Religion and Cause of Liberty.

I am, with the greatest Respect, and highest Esteem,

Sir,

Your Most Obedient &

Most Humble

Servant

Arthur Dobbs
