Report submitted to the United States House of Representatives by Dixon Hall Lewis of the Committee on Indian Affairs. The committee requests "relief for certain Creek Indians of mixed blood, within the State of Alabama; and also the petitions of several individuals, representing themselves as friendly Creek Indians, whose property was plundered by the hostile Creeks in consequence of their attachment to the United States during the Creek War." Also included is the report issued by the Committee of Ways and Means after investigating the matter. The committee decided to appropriate $40,000 to cover the losses, which was less than the total sum of the damages: "They are aware that the sum of forty thousand dollars will not cover the whole amount of the claims...but they believe that, at this late period, it will be equal to the discharge of the claims which may now be brought forward and proven to the satisfaction of the commission." The claims were originally made after the Creek War of 1813 and 1814. |
