"That Section 1, Article XVII, of the Constitution of Tribes be amended so as to read as follows: 'No person shall be adopted into a Tribe of the Order, except a free white male, of good moral character and standing, and of the full age of eighteen great suns.'" This matter was discussed at some length, and the Great Sachem finally ruled that it must lay over one great sun and would be in order at the next Great Sun Council. "That the Chiefs of Records of this reservation be more prompt in forwarding their six moons' reports and per capita tax to the Great Chief of Records, immediately after the 31st sun, Worm Moon, and 30th of Corn moon of each six moons." This recommendation was concurred in by the Great Council. "That Past Sachems be required to procure and wear regalia according to their rank as Past Sachems in this Great Council," and this recommendation was adopted. "That the decisions of this Great Council be adopted as a code and digest for the government of Tribes in this reservation," which was agreed to. "As new Tribes, after being instituted, are so often left with but a faint idea of the workings of the Order, that the Great Sachem, or some one properly qualified, visit them at least within six moons after institution, to instruct them in the work, or designate some Past Sachem for this work when he cannot do it himself." The recommendation was adopted. "I recommend that the dispensation issued to Seminole Tribe, No. 16, be revoked, and that the incoming Great Sachem take proper steps to receive and recover all books and paraphernalia belonging to the Tribe, and the same measure in regard to Iroquois Tribe, No. 12." The subject matter was referred to the incoming Great Sachem with instructions to endeavor to revive the council brands before arresting the dispensations. The following extracts are made from the report of the Great Chief of Records: "I am pleased to report that there has been a marked improvement in the matter of reports from Tribes, yet several of the reports received are neither complete nor correct. As the Tribes and chiefs become more accustomed to their duties I believe this matter will adjust itself. The card catalogue is now nearly complete, containing the names of members of every Tribe in the reservation to date except Iroquois, No. 12, and Choctaw, No. 20. No report has ever been received from No. 12 at Hopkinsville, and communications from brothers in those hunting grounds lead me to believe the Tribe is defunct. I received a report from Seminole Tribe, No. 16, of Henderson, for the term ending 30th of Corn Moon last, but no tax, there being none due from them at that time. Since then I have been unable to get any communication from their Chief of Records. Otego Tribe, No. 15, of Paducah, has made no report for the last six moons' term, and repeated speaking leaves to its C. of R. during the past moon have elicited no response. I have no other intimation that the Tribe is not in good condition.
