These Indians bear the national name OF
Muskoogoes, but inhabiting tract OF country
in the state Of Georgia and the Mississippi

by the popular name Of the Creek Indians;
and the confederacy is divided into various
tribes, such as ApaIachees, Alibamas, ,Abceas,
Cawittaws, Comhacks, Ceosas, Coosactcrs,
Cscsihomos, Natchez, Orkmulgecs, Ocouees,
Fakawnc, &c. all Of whom are dcnominatod
Creeks.
They arc in treaty with tho United States.
In 1890 and 1895 President Washington con-
cludcd with the kings, chiefs and warriors of
the Creek nation of Indians, "two treaties Of
peace and friendship"
The Creeks have been represented by
those who have resided among them to be
remarkably well made, active, hardy, and sa-
