]]> This treaty was signed at Castor Hill, Missouri between the U.S. and Shawnee and Delaware leaders regarding lands near Cape Girardeau that the Delawares had settled on but were forced to abandon in 1815. The Delawares ceded all claims to lands in Missouri while the U.S. agreed to provide them over $10,000 in livestock, farm equipment, education funds, and goods payments to compensate for their losses and assist their settlement elsewhere. The Shawnees, who also ceded claims, received over $2,000 to facilitate removal of their Arkansas bands to Kansas lands and received food provisions as well. Additionally, annuity payments were secured for three specific Delaware leaders. Overall, besides acquiring cessions, the treaty aimed to finally indemnify these tribes for long-standing grievances over prior forced removals.
