Early Life Among The Indians: Reminiscences From The Life Of Benj. G. Armstrong

In 1840 Benjamin Armstrong accompanied Ke-Che-Waish-Ke, or Great Buffalo (1759-1855) and other Ojibwe chiefs to Washington, D.C., to plead against the proposed forced relocation of the tribes west of the Mississippi. The mission was successful: a meeting with President Millard Fillmore brought a reversal of the removal order of 1849.
