[EDITORIAL]: Throughout this document the Chickamauga and Chickamauga Nation are referred to as the Arkansas Cherokee, the Western Cherokee or Old Settlers. These terms were used not only by the East Cherokee but the United States government as well. The United States was too lazy to correct their actions and behavior, all the while the East Cherokee used these names to claim the power, authority, honor, and dignity of The Chickamauga Nation and their traditional customs and beliefs associated with the Mound Building Culture and the Southeast Ceremonial Religious Complex. The Cherokee had NO Claims to the Mound Building Culture or the Southeast Ceremonial Religious Complex because they are Canadian, Great Lakes, Erie people who were expelled from the Iroquoian Confederacy after the end of the Beaver Wars and eventually immigrated into the Southeast sometime after the mid-1670s and whose Chief, Charles Hicks says they assassinated Lower Town Chiefs and Priest when they arrived in 1705 – 1715.
A call was issued on June 20th for a “general council” of the people of the eastern and western Cherokees to met at the national council at Illinois Camp Grounds on Monday the 31st day of July, 1839.” It was signed by George Guess and Captain Bushyhead.
Fort Gibson, June 20, 1839.
Gentlemen: We have the pleasure of enclosing, herewith, a communication to you from the chiefs of the Cherokee Nation, which we hope will be acceptable to you and your people who have arrived here of late from the east; as a compliance with the propositions now made to the late emigrants will, at an early period, enable them to enjoy a full participation in the government of the Cherokee Nation, when such alterations in the government can be made as will secure justice to the whole nation.
[EDITORIAL]: General Arbuckle, whether an accomplice or not, allowed the Coup to take place and refused to help The Chickamauga Nation in its most desperate of times. Instead of protecting The Chickamauga Nation, the rightful Treaty holders, he allowed the Coup and then protected the instigators of the Coup.
If the proposition now made to you by the old settlers be rejected, we can scarcely doubt that serious difficulties and misfortunes will happen to the Cherokee people at an early period, which we hope you will cordially assist us to prevent. We have done all we could with the chiefs’ and others here to induce them to make the accompanying proposition to you, which we hope and believe you ought to accept, and that you should, without delay, take measures to prevent the further effusion of Cherokee blood. A report was received here yesterday that a party of Cherokees are now ranging through the country about Honey creek, with the object of killing three Cherokees; two of them for former political offenses, and the other, as it is supposed, for an offense of a personal nature.
[EDITORIAL]: General Arbuckle admits he went to The Chickamauga Nation and got them to concede their government because the Cherokee would continue to kill them until no one was left. This was the ultimate desire of the Cherokee since Nancy Ward issued the kill order against the Chickamauga, Little Turkey assisted the United States in committing genocide against the Chickamauga, and now, John Ross gets to fulfil the true intentions of the Cherokee against the Chickamauga: Kill them because they are traditionalists.
We believe that two governments cannot exist in the Cherokee Nation without producing a civil war, and are of the opinion that the government that existed before the arrival of the late emigrants should continue until it is Changed in a regular and peaceable manner. We hope that you will take the proposition of the chiefs into consideration, and make an early decision, as some of the chiefs and others will remain here until they know the result.
We are, gentlemen, with much respect, your obedient servants,
[EDITORIAL]: The Treaty of New Echota provided for a single government in Indian Territory. That government was to be on the 1828 Treaty lands of The Chickamauga Nation. General Arbuckle
