Excerpt from Exceptions to the Account Stated, Under the Direction of the Secretary of the Interior, Exhibiting in Detail All the Moneys Which From Time to Time Had Been Placed in the Treasury to the Credit of the Chickasaw Nation: Resulting From the Treaties of 1832 and 1834, and All the Disbursements Made TherefromThe rations charged as delivered to the Indians exceed, it appears upon looking at the account, five millions (between five and six millions.)

And yet rations were charged as though issued to the whole number that left Mississippi.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
