Bagone-giizhig (Hole-in-the-Day the Younger), Eshkibagikoonzh (Flat Mouth), Lawrence Taliaferro, Henry H. Sibley, Wisconsin governor Henry Dodge, and others meet at Fort Snelling to negotiate the sale of Ojibwe lands east of the Mississippi River. About 1,400 Ojibwe camp near the fort during negotiations. In the treaty, signed on July 29, the Ojibwe agree to sell the land to the federal government for $215,000. The treaty marked the first opening of Minnesota land to settler-colonists and retained the rights of the Ojibwe to hunt, fish, and gather foods in the ceded lands. The fishing clause led to a lengthy legal dispute in the 1990s.
