OF THE UNITED STATES Lattimer v. Poteet. South Carolina Indian boundary. Now, the instruction must, have referred to the southern boundary of North Carolina ; and if the Indian boundary strikes this line, it is difficult to perceive, what application to the facts the instruction would have. But if the instruction referred to the Hopewell treaty line, it was not called for in the Holston treaty ; and under the circumstances of the case, we are not prepared to say that there was error in refusing to give the instruction. And we think there was no error in refusing to give the third, fourth and fifth instructions prayed by the plaintiffs' counsel. Nor do we perceive any error of which the plaintiffs can complain, in the first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth instructions given by the circuit court, on the prayer of the defendant. The judgment of the circuit court is affirmed. Takey, Ch. J.—I agree with the majority of the court in affirming thesc- judgments ; but I dissent from some of the principles upon which they have founded their opinion. The court (as I understand the opinion) consider Hawkins's line to he the established boundary line of the treaty of Holston ; they think it is recognised as such in the subsequent treaty of Tellico ; and that being thus recognised by the political department of the government, the court (according to the principles deduced in Garcia v. Lee, and foster v. N^eilson) must also regard it as the true boundary line ; and must treai it as such, from the date of the treaty of Holston, in any question of property that may come before them. If the legislative or executive departments of the government, by ♦any clear and unequivocal act, had declared Hawkins's line to be _„. , IT T 116 the true line of the treaty of Holston, I should concur with the l majority of this court. But I do not find any act of that description by any department of the government. In the cases of Foster v. Neilson, and of Garcia v. Lee, an act of congress had been passed, describing particularly the boundary line therein mentioned, and declaring it to be the true line of that treaty. But in this case, we have no act of the legislative or executive departments of the government, recognising the line run by Hawkins as the treaty line. It is true, that jn the subsequent treaty of Tellico, the parties, in describing the boundaries of this new treaty, call, upon two occasions, for Hawkins's line, and upon both of them,rnn some distance with it. But there is no expression in this treaty which recognises the line thus called for as the boundary line of the treaty of Holston. It is mentioned and referred to, merely as a known point, like other places called for in this treaty ; and the lines spoken of, are run, merely as known lines. But so far from declaring it to be the boundary line described in the treaty of Holston, the treaty of Tellico does not even say, that it was run by Hawkins as the boundary ; nor is it described to have any connection whatever with the treaty of Holston. It is called for as a line, known in the country, and which, on some occasion or other, had been run by Hawkins ; but when run, or for what purpose, cannot be gathered from any expressions in the treaty of Tellico. We know, indeed, from public historical documents, that Hawkins's line is one of the many efforts that were made to fix a certain boundary between North Carolina and the Cherokee Indians, from the vague and imperfect descriptions contained in the treaty of Holston. Other lines were run tor this purpose, besides that of Hawkins. And we have no evidence that

These copies of federal court records were collected by photographer, George Masa. Born Masahara Iizuka and raised in Japan, photographer George Masa (1881-1933) was active in the Appalachian Trail Club and in the movement to establish the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. In 1931, Masa was named to the three-person nomenclature committee for the North Carolina Park Commission and had the responsibility for accurately naming the peaks, streams, and other features. No doubt, these records pertain to the Smokies region and the disposition of land that would eventually become the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
