Z. Norton presided. The object of the meeting, as explained by Capt Rowe and Mr. Tesgarden, was to consider a request of the Polk county Indians for aid to get into the military service of the country. These Indians were represented by Antonio, Chief of the Alabamans; Bill Blunt and Will, Chiefs of the Nuscogas; and Mata Kiha, Chief of the Cashatras.
