Indians to Receive $15 Each Back Pay in Michigan
The Chippewa and Ottawa Indians in Michigan are set to receive about $140,000 in back pay from Uncle Sam within a week. Some 7,000 Native Americans statewide are due money, with most claimants around Traverse City and Petoskey. A government treaty dating to 1455 led to the payments, halted in 1885, and a special agent has spent two years compiling rightful claimants. Each qualified individual is expected to net roughly $15 after expenses.
