sissippi, it would destroy the hopes which
the Traders have, and the motives which
from them would be connected.
In regard to the second impediment, the
connection of the first will be an antidote
to the second, for if the Indians have no
means, the Traders will let them [illegible] the
may hold a dozen Councils, and the effect no-
thing, unless the Indians and Traders are
made to understand that delay will ef-
fect nothing for them. While the Government
pays them money, they will remain till
force is used to remove then, or till I
have wasted thousands in ineffectual efforts
to set them off.
I regret the circumstances which keeps
Mr. Hamilton from the agency (sickness) but
he has appraised me that he will be
home the first week in August, and that
we may get a council about the 25th
of same month.
Should the Department be disposed
to place any of these suggestions in the
hands of the agent, it should be done by
the latter date.

Terre Haute, July 30 1844
Hon. W. Wilkins, Sec. of War:
Sir: Mr Hamilton, agent of the Miamies,
expects to be at Fort Wayne in a few days; and,
when he writes me, I will again refrain to the
Indian Country, to ascertain the disposition
of the Tribe for removal. I have acquainted
Mr Crawford with my action heretofore
and now [illegible] care to make a suggestion
to you in regard to the difficulties in the
way of emigration.
In the first place, the Traders will be
disposed to keep the Indians from remo-
val, while the Government pays out the
annuities, and never will comment to
emigration till that hope is cut off.
Secondly, they have large claims against
the tribe, individually, and fear that their
removal from the State will embarrass
their security. Hence, they will, in self
defence, use their exertions against the
humane efforts of the agent to remove
them.
With all respect , I would suggest
that if Mr Hamilton was authorized
to say, in council, that after the pay-
ment of the annuity , this year, the next
