Journal of the 4th Annual Session of the General Council of the Indian Territory
Journal of the ... annual session of the General Council of the Indian Territory composed of delegates duly elected from the Indian tribes legally resident therein assembled in Council at Okmulgee, Indian Territory.
In accordance with the 1866 treaty between the U.S. and the Cherokee Nation and the Choctaw, Chickasaw, Muskogee (Creek), and Seminole tribes, a council composed of delegates from each tribe met annually to enact legislation for the Indian Territory (now part of Oklahoma). These reports list the delegates, their debates, and their decisions. We lack the third annual report (1872) in this set.
