Cherokee Treaty Provisions for Allotment and Town Sites
A lengthy act details ratification of a treaty between the United States and the Cherokee Nation, outlining Dawes commission roles, land allotment standards, townsite surveys, appraisals, and conveyance procedures. It defines terms, property rights, taxation, improvements, and citizen actions to secure allotted lands and town lots in Indian Territory, with timelines and oversight largely by the interior secretary.
