who have separated themselves from the present

east Of the Mississippi River and have taken up
their residence In the States and have removed
their effects out OF the limits OF the Nation. ana
the Eastern band OF Cherokee Indians who re-

forfeited their rights and privileges as citizens OF
the Nation. and that such persons cannot regain
their citizenship unless they comply with the Con-
stitution and the laws OF the Cherokee Nation ana

The Court recognizes the legislation Of the Chero-
kee Nation constituting tribunals TO pass upon
certain classes Of citizenship cases and concludes:
'"The acts OF the Cherokee Council In the deter
mnation OF applica tions for citizenship in the Ma
tion will be regarded as Judgments Of court and
Will subject 10 the same tests AZ to their valid
ity'' This ruling affects large class OF prom
inent people in Georgia and North and South Caro-
lima and their descendants. who are scattered over
the land and trace their ancestry back among the
Cherokee Indians Among those affected are the
Hubbards OF the Southwest. and the Grays. or
