An official communication from Secretary of War Lewis Cass dated April 11, 1834, primarily refers to two distinct federal documents transmitted to Congress. Depending on your specific area of historical research, you are likely looking for one of the following: The Choctaw Treaty Reservation Report (Senate Document No. 266). This is the most heavily cited report bearing this exact date. Transmitted to the Senate, it addressed growing legal chaos and fraud surrounding the implementation of the 1830 Treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek. Under Article 14 of the treaty, Choctaw individuals who wished to remain in Mississippi and become U.S. citizens were supposed to receive specific tracts of land (reservations). It features the official "Register of Choctaw Names" compiled by federal agents. It documents hundreds of native families who formally applied for land, detailed lists of who was approved or denied, and field notes revealing how land speculators and corrupt agents routinely blocked the Choctaw from securing their titles. his exact document became the cornerstone of the "Net Proceeds Claim," a legal battle fought by the Choctaw Nation against the U.S. government for over sixty years to reclaim the value of the stolen land.
