Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Removal of the Pottawattomie Indians From Northern Indiana: Embracing Also a Brief Statement of the Indian Policy of the Government, and Other Historical Matter Relating to the Indian Question The question of the extinguishment of the Indian titles to the lands of the Pottawattomie Indians in Northern Indiana and Southern Michigan and their removal to a reservation to be provided for them west of the Missouri river, was one of the most important and delicate questions the government had to deal with in the early settlement of this part of the Northwest territory. General treaties were made from 1820 to 1830 between the government agents and the chiefs and headmen of the Pottawattomies in this part of the country by which large tracts of land were ceded to the government, and numerous reservations made to various bands of Pottawattomies in Northern Indiana and Southern Michigan. Later these reservations were ceded by treaty by the Indians to the government for a stipulated amount, and in all the treaties it was provided that the Indians should remove to the reservation west of the Missouri within two years from the date thereof. The dates of these treaties were about all in the years 1835 and 1836, the last date for removal expiring about the first of August, 1838. In the numerous treaties and historical sketches which have been written concerning the early settlement of this part of the country up to the present time but little information has been given in regard to this interesting question. The story which follows was a paper prepared by the writer for, and delivered to, the Northern Indiana Historical Society of South Bend, in the early part of 1898. It was so well received by the society and the large and intelligent audience who heard it, that it has been deemed of sufficient historical interest to preserve it in this form.
