CHEROKEE PHOENIX AND INDIANS' ADVOCATE
Wednesday, May 27, 1829
Vol. II, no. 8
Page 2, col. 4a

Our readers will recollect an order we published some time since, issued by Col. Montgomery to Mr. Stidman, requesting his removal out of the limits of the nation.  We pronounced the proceeding to be cruel, and highly tyrannical.  It appears from very good authority, that the order from the War Department had reference only to straggling white men, and that it was not intended to apply to white citizens of this nation, among whom is Mr. Stidman.
