In retaliation, the US Indian agent, Wiley Thompson, declared that those chiefs were deposed from their positions.
What happened after certain chiefs refused to abide by the Treaty of Payne's Landing?
Wiley Thompson also forbade the sale of guns and ammunition to them.
What was Osceola complaining about?
Osceola, a young warrior rising to prominence, resented this ban. He felt it equated the Seminole with slaves, who were forbidden by law to carry arms.
