Naturally this caused great consternation and conflict. spanning the 18th Century and into the 20th Century. Included with the book is the original bill of sale and a newspaper clipping from the St. Joseph News Press dated November 30, 1980, titled "Constant wandering makes the Kickapoo Indians the lost tribe of America."
