Description: [SEMINOLE WARS] Report of the Committee of Claims, to whom was referred the memorial of the Legislature of the State of Tennessee, in relation to payment for horses lost in the Seminole campaign Author: [US House of Representatives Committee of Claims] Title: [SEMINOLE WARS] Report of the Committee of Claims, to whom was referred the memorial of the Legislature of the State of Tennessee, in relation to payment for horses lost in the Seminole campaign Publication: [Washington]: [US House of Representatives], 1822 Edition: First Edition Description: First Edition. Un-bound. Octavo, [1], 2-24pp. Folding chart laid-in. Un-bound; three unopened and untrimmed gatherings, which were likely to be side-stitched or bound into a larger volume, though this was never done. Very good; some foxing and marginal soiling, but a complete and generally clean example of this rare document of the claims made by Tennessee militia members who had fought against the Seimnole tribe in Florida under Andrew Jackson. The legal question centers on whether volunteer militiamen who lose horses and other valuables should be compensated by the government for their losses. A large folding chart is titled "Statement of the number of Tennessee Volunteer Mounted Gunmen in the service of the United States during the war against the Seminole Indians, from accounts filed in the office of the Second Auditor of the Treasury." OCLC records just three holdings, at the LOC, AAS, and Emory. Rare. Checklist of American Imprints 11128. Not in Sabin. Not in Allen. Very good.
