Personally came before me Sunegoue the claimant of the Cherokee Nation East and affirmed that the United States which was stolen and taken from him in the year 1822 by Whiteman citizens of the United States claimant states that he went to the hog mountain in Georgia about the above named date with vinizen(?) to sell and states that he stopped at hog mountain and tied the above described bay horse and states that a Whiteman so soon as he had tied his horse went and loosed said horse and rode him off without ever saying anything to claimant and that he has never seen said whiteman since nor heard of him and further states that a whitmean came to his house to borrow a horse to ride for a few days and claimant states that he loaned said whiteman the above described bay mare and that said man did never return said mare again and that he has never heard of said whiteman or mare since and further states that a white man by the name of Baker stole his cattle above described and that he saw said cattle in Baker’s possession and that he demanded his cattle from said Baker and that Baker would not let him have the cattle and he never did get the cattle again and further states the forgoing described hogs crossed the Chattahoochy river over into the white settlement and that he [illegible] to get his hogs but could not and has good reason to think that said hogs was killed up by the whites as he was so informed by some of the whites who lived near which the hogs was and that the forgoing prices are reasonable and that he has never received the value for the same
