The Delaware tribe cetle to the U. S. all claim to the thirteen

 the Delaware Indians livius on the Sandusky waters and 

 their successors in office, in the same manner and subject to 

 the same conditions as are hereinbefore provided for the lands 

 granted to the Wyandot, Seneca, and Shawanee Indians, a 

 tract of land to contain 9 square miles, to .join the tract 

 granted to the Wyandots of 12 miles square, to be laid off as

 tain Pipe's village. 



The U. S. also agree to grant by patent to the chiefs of the Ot- 

 tawa tribe for the use of said tribe a tract of land to contain 

 34 square miles, to be laid out as nearly in a square form as 

 practicable, not interfering with the lines of the tracts re- 

 served by the treaty of Greenville in 179.5 on the S. side of 

 the Miami river of Lake Erie, and to include Tnshquegan or 

 McCarty's village, which tract thus granted shall be held by 

 the said tribe upon the usual conditions of Indian reserva- 

 tions as though no patent were issued. 



At the special request of the .said Indians the U. S. also agree 

 to grant to certain individuals 1-t tracts of land aggregating 

 9,480 acres.

 head of St. Mary's river to the point where it is intersected 

 by the line run by the commissioners of the V. S. under the 

 treaty of Fort Jackson ; thence along the said last mentioned 

 line to a point where a line leaving the same shall run the 

 nearest and a direct course by the head of a creek, called by 

 the Indians Alcasalekie, to the Oemulgee river; thence down 

 the said Ocnuilgee river to its junction with tlie Oconee, the

The Creeks also cede to the U. S. the following tract, viz: Be- 

 ginning at the High shoals of the Appalachee river; thence

 the Ocmulgee above the Seven islands; thence up the east- 

 ern bank of the I'lcofouhatchie by the water's edge to where

 the Shallow ford on the Chatahochie crosses the same, anil 

 from thence along the said path to the Shallow ford on the 

 Chatahochie river; thence up the Chatahochie river, by the
