Item description from seller

First complete edition, 8vo, pp. 58; full-p. map in the pagination; removed; title page separated. Published by Smith earlier the same year, but without 7-page declaration of John Sappington received after the publication of the former. Jefferson supplies evidence to prove that Michael Cresap and his party murdered the Indian Logan's family and other peaceful Indians. The account was refuted years later in a biography of Cresap by John L. Jacob, a revolutionary officer and late clergyman who had married Cresap's widow, and "resulted in the reopening of old sores by Doddridge in his then recently published Notes of 1824. The defense is complete and the biography is of absorbing interest" (see Streeter III, 1335). Evans 37701; Sabin 35880; Sowerby 3225; Vail, Frontier, 1235.
