 Item — Box: 5, Folder: 40
Identifier: CAC_CC_047_1_5_40_0004
The text is a letter from George B. Schwabe, a member of Congress, to Joseph Bruner, discussing the challenges of investigating claims of the Native American tribes by a Committee of Congress. Schwabe expresses concern about the complexity and magnitude of the claims, and doubts that they can be effectively addressed by Congress. Bruner, on the other hand, advocates for a final settlement between the Indians and the Federal Government, allowing them to use their property without government supervision. The letter emphasizes the need for fairness and justice in resolving the claims of the Native American tribes.
