Rights of foreigners to vote for Michigan territory delegates

Governor Doty submits a petition from German settlers urging a law allowing all free male inhabitants over twenty one in the territory to vote for delegates to form a state constitution and government. The rights are argued from the Northwest Ordinance, with reference to Citizenship, Congress authority, and state sovereignty. The piece references Michigan and Tennessee precedents and notes the Treasury report and a steamboat accident in Cahokia Bend with many lives lost.
