WASHINGTON LETTER WRITTEN TO THE CHEROKEES Cherokee Phoenix, September 17, 1828
A Special Shout-out to the Cherokee Phoenix for documenting the Federal Recognition of the Chiefs of the Chickamauga as the Chiefs of the Cherokee Nation, which even the Cherokee Nation admits the Lower Towns are signatories of Treaties with the United States as the Cherokee Nation.
Thank You George Washington for the Executive Branch Recognition of the Chickamauga Chiefs the Badger, the Dragging Canoe, John Watts, Katakiskee, the Hanging Maw, the Breath, the Boots, the Black Fox, the Thigh, the Glass, and Dick of the look out Mountain as the Chiefs of the Cherokee Nation.
Where are our "Allowances?" We have not received them in centuries.
