Explanation:

In the year 1830 Jackson administration forced(According to the <u>Treaty of New Etocha )</u> the shifting of the Cherokee tribe to the western territory  so that the southern territory can be used for the white people.,at that time chief Ross was the principal chief  of the Cherokee people settled in Georgia .The chief wrote a letter to" the Senate and House of Representatives,” protest  against the <u>Treaty of New Etocha </u>.
