Battle Of Calabee Creek





"We return to the Georgia troops. Having his force increased to about seventeen hundred men and with his four hundred Indians, General Floyd moved into the Calabee Valley...".

"...[the Native Americans] suddenly sprang from their lair in the undergrowth of the creek and made a furious assault about daylight. A charge soon drove them into the recesses of the swamp with severe loss. But the cautious Floyd was effectually checked and his campaign brought to a premature close."  [Source]
