Brewton Report 3 - Colonel Moore takes Apalache
In 1704, Col. Moore was commissioned as Lieutenant General by Sir Nathaniel Johnson, who succeeded him in the Government, to make an Expedition against the Spaniards and Indians at Apalachee about eighty Miles to the West of St. Augustine, on the same Motives that the preceding Expedition had been undertaken…. By this Conquest of Apalachee the Province was freed from any Danger from that Part during the whole War. And this important Service was effected without putting this Government to the least Expense.
