The treaty, concluded at French Broad [Knoxville, Tenn.] sets the boundary line between the United States and the Cherokee Nation, guarantees to the Nation all land outside the boundary line and cedes to the U.S. all land within the line. The U.S. pays "certain valuable goods" and $1000 annually to the Cherokees for their land and the Cherokees agree to be under the protection of the U.S. and no other nation. The U.S. reserves the right to regulate trade and navigation of the Tennessee River. Crimes by either party will be punished by U.S. law, retaliation is to end, animosities cease and prisoners restored. The U.S. will also supply interpreters and free farming implements.
