" This the United States " guaranteed, and secured to be convey ed in patent, " and defined it by exact boundaries ; and, " in ad dition to the seven millions of acres of land thus provided for and bounded, " the United States did "further guarantee to the Cherokee nation a perpetual outlet west, and a free and un molested use of all the country west of the western boundary of said seven millions of acres, as far west as the sovereignty of the United States and their rights of soil extend, " Th...e fifth Article of this treaty is, " The United States here by covenant and agree that the lands ceded to the Cherokee nation in the foregoing article shall in no future time, without their consent, be included within the territorial limits or juris diction of any State or Territory. " In the sixth Article is this promise : " The United States agree to protect the Cherokee nation from domestic strife and foreign enemies, and against intestine wars between the sev eral tribes. " Even after this treaty was made a great part of the nation refused to sanction it, saying that it did not represent their wish ; they would never carry it out ; hundreds refused to re ceive any longer either money or supplies from the United States agents, lest they should be considered to have thereby committed themselves to the treaty.
