[Footnote 16: Relating to the treaty of December 29, 1835, with the
Cherokee Indians.]
WASHINGTON, _April 27, 1836_.
_To the Senate of the United States_:
I transmit herewith to the Senate, for their advice and consent as
to the ratification of the same, a treaty concluded with the Wyandot
Indians for a cession of a portion of their reservation in the State
of Ohio.
In order to prevent any abuse of the power granted to the chiefs in the
fifth article of the treaty, I recommend the adoption of the suggestion
contained in the accompanying letter of the Secretary of War; otherwise
I shall not feel satisfied in approving that article.
