[Extract from letter of Governor St. Clair to General Harmar. From St. Clair Papers, ii,
p. 144.]
Cahokia, May [no date], 1790.
Sir: I had the honor to receive your communications by Captain
Armstrong, and have given him my opinion upon the subject; that it
is, at present at least, impracticable, for the reasons which he will inform
you of, as I think it best not to say any thing about it in writing.
