Jesup at their head ... now he may drive them out of the country or force them to a compliance ... of some shape." Indeed, General Jesup's solution involved controversially capturing chiefs Osceola and Micanopy under a false flag of truce after each had agreed to sign a peace treaty. Letter is faintly postmarked and measures 10" x 7-3/4".
