Of course white people are not allowed to hold land at all except by lease, and the law forbul1 t hat a lease shall ext'nd ofei'aonger period thau one year, though that is usually evadt d by leasing for one Near with the option of five.

W hen that was dtine it Ipr6ceeded to make treaties with these tribes separhe-ly, providing for -an im wediate al1oiit of the land to each citizen. . epteinber the Chickasaws and Choctaws ratified a treaty by which each Indian, man, woman, and child, or initer married white p-rson should re ceive an amount of land equal to three hundred and twenty acres of average land, of which they would be rtquired to keepone half for twenty-one years as a homestead, while the remiainder may be sold within. one year after. .allotment.
