![["This text is a brief for the appellee in a replevin case involving personal property. The case was tried in the Mayor's Court of Pauls Valley, Indian Territory, and the appellant, Wettermark, sought to appeal to the United States Court but failed to do so within the required time and with the necessary documentation. The Court dismissed the appeal due to procedural errors. The appellee argues that the privilege of appeal is not an inherent right and that the appellant had already had their day in court."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Claude%20Weaver%20Collection,%201861-1953/Legal%20Career-CAC_CC_055_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_055_2_2_2_0000-Indian%20Territory,%201895-1902/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_055_2_2_2_0005_thumbnail.jpg "Dismissal of Appeal in the United States Court of Appeals for the Indian Territory")
![["The document discusses the eligibility of members of the Five Civilized Tribes in Oklahoma to represent Oklahoma in the federal Congress. It explains that, historically, Indians were not considered citizens of the United States unless specified in treaties or statutes. In 1887, a law was passed granting citizenship to Indians who received allotments or adopted civilized life, but this did not apply to the Five Civilized Tribes. In 1901, the act was amended to make members of the Five Civilized Tribes citizens of the United States."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Claude%20Weaver%20Collection,%201861-1953/Legal%20Career-CAC_CC_055_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_055_2_2_2_0000-Indian%20Territory,%201895-1902/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_055_2_2_4_0001_thumbnail.jpg "Eligibility of Five Civilized Tribes Members for Federal Congress Representation")
