Hi Guys, thanks for listening to Local Lou. If you enjoy the show please share it with your friends on social media! I appreciate it. This episode I went a little off script so it does twist and turn a bit. My hope is that hearing about this treaty will make you want to learn more about it, I know it has been hard to find a stopping point for research so I sort of decided to not have one.  The next few episodes of Local Lou will focus on this time period.  Previous episodes Philander Prescott, Fort Dakota and Yankton Trail bridge also pertain.
