PROCLAMATION.
GEORGE IZARD. GOVERNOR OF THE TERRITORY OF ARKANSAS,

To all whom it may concern, Greeting: WHEREAS, a Treaty between the United States of America, and the Cherokee Nation of Indians, West of the Mississippi, was made and concluded, at the City of W1;1.shington, on the 6th day of May, A. D. 1828; which Treaty was accepted, ratified and confirmed by the President of the United States, on the 28th day of May, 1828:

And whereas, the 3d article of the said Treaty is as follows, viz: "The United States agree to have the lines of the above cession run without delay, say riot later than the first day of October next, and to remove, immediately after the running of the eastern line from the Arkansas river to the south-west corner of Missouri, all white persons from the west to the east of said line, and also all others, should there be any there, who may be unacceptable to the Cherokees, so that no obstacles arising out of the presence of a white population, or a population of any sort, shall exist to annoy the Cherokees-and also to keep all such from the west of said line in future."

Now, therefore, know all men, that the citizens of the United States, and all other persons not forming a part of the Cherokee Tribe of Indians, who are now resident within that part of the county of Lovely which has been ceded to the said Tribe, are hereby warned to prepare for removing from the western to the eastern side of the new boundary line, so soon as due notice shall be given that the same has been surveyed, agreeably to provisions made by the General
Government.

And farther, the President of the United States, being desirous of extending to those removed settlers all the indulgence which may be consistent with the obligation imposed by the Treaty, has directed them to be informed, that they will be allowed NINETY DAYS from the time when notice may be published, that the line has been run.

All settlers who shall not remove within the stipulated period of ninety days, will be debarred from the pre-emption right, as provided by act of Congress of the 24th of May last; ,o and all those who shall have complied with the above condition, must register their names with the Indian Agent, as the persons who have been by the provisions of the Treaty obliged to remove.

Done at Little Rock, September 27th, 1828.
GEO. IZARD.
By the Governor:
B. SMITH, Aid-de-Camp.
