A Disputed d Treaty<br />

On learning of the treaty<br />

signing, the Sauk and<br />

Mesquakie tribes tried to<br />

dispute the treaty,<br />

saying the four leaders<br />

did not have authority to<br />

sign for the tribes. Also,<br />

Article 7 of the treaty<br />

caused many Sauk and<br />

Mesquakie to believe<br />

they had only agreed to<br />

share their lands with<br />

the U.S. government.
