| | Gen. Scott's Order to Troops |
 | | To carry out the general object with the greatest promptitude and certainty, and with the least possible distress to the Indians, the country they are to evacuate is divided into three principal Military Districts, under as many officers of high rank, to command the troops serving therein, subject to the instructions of the Major General. |
 | | The duties devolved on the army, through the orders of the Major General and those of the commanders of districts, under him, are of a highly important and critical nature. |
 | | A like indulgence, but only for a limited time, and until further orders, is tended to the families and property of certain Chiefs and head-men of the two great Indian parties, (on the subject of emigration) now understood to be absent in the direction of Washington on the business of their respective parties. |
