Comanche who opposed the treaty of medicine lodge creek; refused to move onto a reservation

Explanation:

The person you want I think is Ten Bears (otherwise known as Perry - wah - say - men). He refused to move because the land offered was too small to suit the life style of those that were to live there.

I can't help but add that this is another sorry part of the history of the Indians and their white conquerors. The wars lasted about 400 years and those that were involved in the Treaty of Medicine Lodge Creek were not uniquely dishonest, but they were not given to honor the treaties.

Their behavior coupled with congress later on up to the middle of the twentieth century cost the American Government 10s of Millions of dollars and that's when the American Dollar meant something.

Even the Supreme Court was involved in ill treatment of the Indians. The first case was Lone Wolf vs Hitchcock in 1903. I point this out because the Court ruled against the tribes claiming that the American Government had Plenary Rights. The term plenary means that they had absolute rights: they did not have to negotiate.

Many people note that if the government had negotiated fairly and honestly many lives would have been saved to say nothing of the money that was eventually paid out.
