"The Spaniard* a re devils, and the olggeat devil among them Is the half Spaniard, half-Frenchman, half Scotcb man aud altogether Creek blackguard McOllllvary." Tbu* wrote Oen. Jumtu Robertson, the Tennessee pioneer. The iuan be referred to was a half breed Creek war cbk'f who went by the Scottish name of Alexander McQHUvray. He had other nainea and titles. F\>r In stance, be called blmaelf "emperor of the Seminole* and Creeks." Ha bam" boozled uv? b Spat:; aud the United I States Into giving blm commissions aa major general and persuaded Kng* land to make him a colonel. He drew pay from all three countries, playing one agalnat the other and being loyal to none. McGIUlvray was born in the Creek "nation" in 1740. His father waa a Scotch emigrant of good birth, bin mother a half-breed Creek princess. In the son's velna ran the blood of four race# ? Indian, Spanish, trench and Scotch. Underneath the polish und learning he received, he waa al ways a typical Indian of the worst | sort. Ilia father's family planned a ] white man's career for the lad. They gave him a splendid education; then found a position for him In a Savaiv nah counting house. A Flight From Civilization. Hut the tame life of civilization wearied him and he. went back to his mother's people. His education and natural genius soon raised him to the rank of chief, not only of the Creeka, but of the Semlnolea and Chicka maugaa, too. This triple power put him at the bead of- fully 10,000 war riors and made him lord of a domain larger than many European kingdoms. Small wonder that he took the title of emperor, surrounded himself with a royal court and was accompanjed everywhere by a retinue! When the revolutionary war broke out the Hritish made him a oolonel. This title, and the gay uniform that went with it. delighted McOllllvray's barbaric soul. Nor was the extra pay displeasing to him. He fought for. the English throughout the revolution. Georgia therefore confiscated all his property In that state. In revenge for this he waged war on the white set tlers In. the south and west. When the United States and England signed a peace treaty, in 1783, McGUllvray began to look about for new employ ment. Spain ? then master of Florida ? sought alliance with him. For a goodly sum he became a Spanish agent, with the title of general, and I used his tribal power for Spain's ad vancement Then. 1790, he consented to go to New York for a personal con ference with President Washington. | He made the Journey in imperial state. I At every city along the route there I were crowds and music to welcome the "Emperor.** All this put him In a good humor. He readily made a dip lomatic and commercial treaty with Washington, consenting to act as United States agent, with the rank of general and a salary of $1,200 a year. He also received $100,000 Indemnity for the land that Georgia had confis cated from him. Although he then took oath of allegiance to this country, he sent word to his Spanish employers that he should continue to look after Spain's interest just the same. In view of such loyal services the Span iards raised his salary to $3,500 a year. This, with his yearly $1,200 from the United States and his tribal proper ties, added to the money ho could earn by grafting and his Income as partner in a large southern commercial house, made him a very rich man. ALGe&T mt&Oti TCPtlUNC Spain, Great Britain and the United States were not upon the friendliest terms in these days. Indeed, in the south their Interests were forever clashing. Yet McGillivray had enough tact to keep his n,.me on the pay roll of the three countries and to give ' more or less satisfaction to all of ? them. He also jrrew daily more pow erful and secure in his office of "Km i peror," using white men and Indians J alike as- pawns in his successful gamo j of pell tics and fins nee. Past Master of Treachery. | Though in the sworn Kervice of the I United States, he did not. cease hia I bloodthirsty raids on southwestern settlers. Nor diif ho ever let hi3 oaths of allegiance to any nation in terfere with his personal Interests and pla.p? of vengeance. It lias been said of McGillivray: "He was an instance of a powerful intellect absolutely di vorced from moral principle." In his declining years McGillivray took pleasure in Riving a statesman like education to his nephew, a youth who was one day to Maze a bloody trail in history under the name Tied Eagle, and whose life story has been told in an earlier article of this series. McGillivray escaped punishment for his countless offenses and died rich and honored. February 17, 1793. He was buried with Masonic honors In the garden of hts business partner's house at Vensacola, Fla. (Copyright.) . . __ _ : ? Reciprocity.
