May I ask the Senator why he did not read all of that section and also read the previous section? Article 3 of the Creek treaty of 1866 stipulates: One hundred thousand dollars shall be paid in money and divided to soldiers that enlisted in the Federal Army and the loyal refugee Indians and freedmen who were driven from their homes by the rebel forces. to reimburse them in proportion to their respective losses. And the last part of the article read by the Senator states: In case the awards so made shall be duly approved. said awards shall be paid from the proceeds of the sale of said lands within one year from the ratification of this treaty. or so soon as said amount of $100.000 can be raised from the sale of said land to other Indians. That is a limitation placed on the treaty of 1806.
