Disbound wraps. 404 pages. Disbound wraps with title printed on page 1. Light to moderate toning to the text. Contents relate of the Federal Government's Treaty with the Creek Indian Nation and Georgia. The opening letter from Georgia's Governor Troup to John C. Calhoun, Secretary of War of the United States, is critical of Georgia's perceived mistreatment. Much correspondence between Troup and the Government including some correspondence from Benjamin Hawkins, Edmund Gaines, Joseph Bevan, William McIntosh of the Creeks, and many others. From the National Park Service TREATY OF INDIAN SPRINGS (February 12, 1825): The Creek Nation ceded to the United States all lands lying within the boundaries of the State of Georgia, as defined by the compact of April 24, 1802, between the U.S. and Georgia. In return the Creeks would receive an equal amount of land west of the Mississippi along the Arkansas River. The reservations at Indian Springs and Ocmulgee Old Town were also given up. William McIntosh signed his own death warrant when he put his name on this Second Treaty of Indian Springs in 1825. He and several more of the chiefs that signed it were assassinated for surrendering all remaining claims the Creeks had to Georgia land.
