In 1865, Governor Newton Edmunds of the Dakota Territory created a Commission to negotiate with the different bands of Sioux Indians. As the result of a meeting at Fort Sully in the Dakota Territory in October 1865 nine treaties were signed, including this one.
In six Articles the Sans Arcs band agreed to cease hostilities against American citizens and to discontinue attacks on other tribes "unless first attacked by them." The Sans Arcs would, in exchange for compensation from the United States delineated here, withdraw from overland transportation routes. The U.S. promised additional benefits to members of the San Arcs who wished to settle on land for agricultural purposes. The Treaty is signed in type by representatives of the parties, and proclaimed by President Johnson. [Prucha, Francis P.: AMERICAN INDIAN TREATIES: THE HISTORY OF A POLITICAL ANOMALY. Univ.
