This amendment had reference to the method of disposing of the 120,000 acres authorized to be sold by act of Aug. 15, 1876.

The members of this band originally held their lands in common under the treaty of 1854. Most of them, however, subsequently made individual selections and patents were issued to them therefor. They attempted to sell their lands, but were interfered with by white squatters who claimed the first right to purchase. Matters were tied up in this shape until this act of Mar. 3, 1879. Under its provisions the rightful purchasers have secured title to their land.

This tract was again restored to public domain by Executive order of July 13, 1883. It comprises two separate pieces.
