Forsyth describes events in the U.S. Congress pertaining to an unnamed treaty (probably the Treaty of Indian Springs, signed with Creek Indians on February 12, 1825) and, more particularly, the passage of legislation to modify said treaty.  Forsyth explains his ignorance of certain machinations within the legislature and laments the far reaching effects of this reversal, particularly with respect to the state of Georgia.</dc:description><dc:description>Digital image and encoded transcription of an original manuscript, scanned, transcribed and encoded by the Digital Library of Georgia in 2001, as part of GALILEO, funded in part by a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services.</dc:description><dc:format>text/html</dc:format><dc:format>image/jpeg</dc:format><dc:identifier>tcc736</dc:identifier><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:relation>Mode of access: World Wide Web.</dc:relation><dc:relation>System requirements: AT&amp;T DjVu browser plug-in needed to view images of documents.</dc:relation><dc:rights>http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/NoC-US/1.0/</dc:rights><dc:source>Manuscript held by the Hargrett Rare Book and Manuscript Library, The University of Georgia Libraries, Telamon Cuyler, box 03, folder 29, document 02.</dc:source><dc:subject>Creek Indians--Government relations</dc:subject><dc:subject>Creek Indians--Treaties</dc:subject><dc:subject>Treaties--Ratification</dc:subject><dc:title>[Letter] 1826 June 15, Sand Hills, [Georgia] / John Forsyth</dc:title><dc:type>Text</dc:type></oai_dc:dc>
