Footnote

The relations with the Cherokees, their claims to lands in East Texas,
and their final expulsion from Texas, is so different from the relations
with the other Indian tribes that I shall treat it in a separate section,
contenting myself here with a reference to that tribe only when they
come into the natural development of the subject.
