Williamsburgh, January 21. On Wednesday arrived in this
city from Fort Cumberland, a party of the Catawba Warriors,
who have been some time with out forces on the frontiers.
On the 28th of December, on their way down, they met a party
of Cherokees at Fort Washington, where they received each
other with the greatest marks of friendship; after smoking a
pipe round, the head warrior of the Cherokees desired the
head warrior of the Catawbas to give him an account of their
late rout, which being done, they called for liquor, drank
King George's health, and the head warriors of each nation,
and then proceeded to dancing, concluding the whole with a
grand war dance. . .
