Footnote

16Jackson refers to the Neches claim in similar terms in later letters
to Butler, of September 4, 1832, and November 27, 1833, in Ibid., IV, 472;
V, 229-230. In that of November 27, 1833, Jackson writes that he must
soon be told if the desired boundary (ceding all or a large part of Texas)
could not be obtained, so "we may proceed to make one ourselves . . .
and take possession of Nachedages."
