The United States agree, whenever the President may think it necessary
and proper, to convene such of the tribes, either separately or
together, as are interested in the lines left unsettled herein, and to
recommend to them an amicable and final adjustment of their respective
claims, so that the work, now happily begun, may be consummated. It is
agreed, however, that a Council shall be held with the Yancton band of
the Sioux, during the year 1826, to explain to them the stipulations of
this treaty, and to procure their assent thereto, should they be
disposed to give it, and also with the Ottoes, to settle and adjust
their title to any of the country claimed by the Sacs, Foxes, and
Ioways.

ARTICLE XIII
It is understood by all the tribes, parties hereto, that no tribe shall
hunt within the acknowledged limits of any other without their assent,
but it being the sole object of this arrangement to perpetuate a peace
among them, and amicable relations being now restored, the Chiefs of all
the tribes have expressed a determination, cheerfully to allow a
reciprocal right of hunting on the lands of one another, permission
being first asked and obtained, as before provided for.
ARTICLE XIV
Should any causes of difficulty hereafter unhappily arise between any of
the tribes, parties hereunto, it is agreed that the other tribes shall
interpose their good offices to remove such difficulties; and also that
the government of the United States may take such measures as they may
deem proper, to effect the same object.
ARTICLE XV
This treaty shall be obligatory on the tribes, parties hereto, from and
after the date hereof, and on the United States, from and after its
ratification by the government thereof.
