He alleges that deceptive methods were used to obtain a majority vote to commutate perpetual annuities, resulting in a loss of approximately twenty four thousand dollars per annum. The commutation was sponsored by F.C. Campbell, who was far removed from the affected tribe.</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
