Cameron, The Commissary For The Cherokees



"...Hillsborough, who was then President of the Board of Trade, and was appointed the first Colonial Secretary in January, 1768, outlined an elaborate plan for the use of the Indian Agents.  The British territory was divided into two districts, north and south, by the Ohio River."

"The superintendent of the Southern District was the first to attempt to inaugurate the new scheme.  He received a copy of the plan in 1764 and proceeded to select commissaries." 10
