Ojibwe Native American Petition, 1849

Ojibwe Native American petition, 1849. A birchbark petition sent to the United States Congress by a group of Ojibwe Native American chiefs, asking for guarantee of a permanent home in Wisconsin. The chiefs are represented by their totems: martens, bear, man and catfish, led by the crane. Lines running from the heart and eye of each animal to the heart and eye of the crane denote that they are all of one mind. A line runs from the eye of the crane to the lakes, shown in the little map (circles) in the lower left-hand corner.
