After the council the tribes In their and many colored dress danced the green corn dance while the fashionable audience applauded. Not only did many new simpers print the story or one similar to it, but some of them editorial i70d at length on It. Others, however, Ignored the story or the opportunity for editorial com meat. Ierlmps they considered It Just another "press ngent yarn." Or they may have reiaeni bored that eight years ago tills same "war was going to be olln ially ended." At least, that was what press dispatches from Miami said at the time. Those dispatihes told how Chief Tony Tommy, 'ordained leader of all the Setmnoles lit Florida," was going to Washington "to make for mu! peace with the United States government and ask for citizenship for his people." Al! of which made good copy for the new spa pers and good pnldbity for Miami and that part of Florida. Fait a short time later this press dis patch from Fort Myers, Fla, appealed in the Vapors : Nuck Sue 11,1 Choe, chief of the Merida Semltioles, vigorously denies thut the gl.nle tribesmen seek American citizenship or reo-- t onclllation lie government of the with United States. The position of "ottr little nation" is nude plain In n letter from Stanley Hanson s., of the Seminole Indian ass.a lotion of Florida, to Judge George W. Storter of Col her county, a life long friend of the Indians, In which the Indian chief repudiates state meats made by Tony Tomtnv of Miami, 'seif styled leader" for the Seim miles, "All news d spatohes carried out o Miairi recently." the letter continues, "have boon unauthorized hy Seminole leaders and there fore without foundation. When Hie Seimnoles take action It will be through a dti.y const! luted council which governs the little na tlon." So that was that, and nothing more was beard of the proposal to "end officially" a non exNient "war" until recently when Se. rotary I. kos, 0t vacation in Florida, was reported to he making "peace medicine" with the Semin,. les.

In reality there were two Seminole wars. The first one was a comparatively short affair. It took place in 1M7-1and lasted less than a year. An aftermath of the Creek Indian war, It was a minor Incident In the larger field of diplomacy and International relations. After the defeat of the Creek Indians In 1817, many of those tribesmen sought refuge among the Seminoles in Florida, then held hy the Span tsli. To the Seminoles also had tied many runaway negro slaves. So there was constant friction between the Indians and slave catchers, of the law and settlers on the southern border of vvliat was then the United States. After a number of Indians and whites had been killed in the spasmodic warfare which followed, General Gaines was sent with a force of regulars to demand the surrender of some of the Si min, des actus,. of killing white settlers. The Indians refused, claiming that the whites were responsible for the first aggressions, which was probably tin truth. So Gaim-tittmked a party of Seminoles at Covvltown Just north of the Florida border, ana stirred up a veritable hornet's nest, which re suited In an atta.k by the Indians on his gar r.sun at I ,rt Sect, 'l fie War department then ordered Games to .omintie his offensive against the Indians, put suing them into Spanish terriIf tory necessary but not molest any Span tsh garrison The department next ordered Gen.

But the land hungry whites crowding In upon them there and demandin' they be removed across the Mississippi!; oilier southeastern tribes. So another treaty was nude at Payne's mg in 1S32 hy which tin Seminoles, at fc part of them, agreed to migrate within years. The majority of the Indians, howe'e pudlated the treaty. Matteis came to a cg November, 1835, when Amathht, a chief wt signed the treaty and received his share money for doing so, was siiot by a party: the leadership of Micanopy, the headcliie' usual It gli handed methods Old iMkorv" invaded Florida, captured the Spanish post of t ! , ''l.::1 his na he t s In t nator faill r reel a that ( Etilierla 'hicagr icretar 'ailed atnus e Osceola, n Gen.
