and removed from their said lands,
which was built for the purpose and
used for the unlawful purpose of inn
prisoning these Indians simply because
they pleaded and petitioned in defense
of their, freedom and inalienable and

they demand a guarantee against such
unlawful aggressions on the part Of the

IA. They claim and demand that the

right TO the control and possession of
their tribal lands and the rents and
profit thereof. That such claims are
without the protection OF law, and they
demand a guarantee against such un-

by draft to each Indian, payable to his

as in this way their moneys will all be

Again, on the agents pay days there
