Letter. Richmond is writing at the request of Brother Joseph Rother to forward his letter concerning certain balances which the Indians claim to have due. At the last payment, a number of Potawatomies presented themselves and claimed that they were entitled to a share of the annuity since they were under no treaty obligation to move west. It might be advisable to make a new apportionment because it does not appear that the money appropriated for education was received by the Indians. It is but justice that some remuneration be made for the amount due but not received for the years 1836-1842.
