To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


It appears, by reference to the amended treaty, that forty- one names are attached to it, as chiefs of the Seneca nation.
Of these, there are six who were not then, nor are they now chiefs. Their names are as follows, to wit : Reuben Pierce, Jim Jonas, John Gordon, Charles Graybeard, John Hutchin- son, and Charles F. Pierce.
The first two of these have never held any higher station than *' runners.*' For evidence of this fact, we refer the Pre- sident to the affidavit of Seneca White, dated Dec
...ember 11, 1839. Document No. 4.
That the aforesaid six Indians never were considered chiefs of the Seneca nation, and therefore had no authority or tight, according to the. laws or customs of the confederation, to sign any treaty whatever, is shown by the affidavit of sixty-seven chiefs, sworn before H. A. Salisbury, commissioner of deeds for Erie county, dated December 11, 1839. See document No. 2.
John Gordon, one of the said six Indians, swears that he never was a chief. See affidavit dated December 11, 1839.
