GOV. HULL'S ADDRESS TO THE INDIANS 21
the nations—that all the lands belonged to the nation, are held in common and undivided, and the treaties provided that the consideration shall be paid to the nations. Your Great Father wishes to do Equal Justice to all of you. Any just and satisfactory agreement in respect to a distribution of the Annuities, which you will make yourselves, will be approved and carried into effect by your Father, the President.
I have no more to say at present. When you desire to speak to me my ears will be open.
