Sol #1130 — 1846 Four-Reservation School Act

Sol Finding #1130 (GPT-6 Sol, repo 1846-four-reservation-schools-deposit-fund-conditions, commit 7cc3fcc) photographs New York’s 1846 ch. 114 (passed April 30; printed pp. 127–129). Four reservations: Onondaga $300 build + $250/yr ×5; Cattaraugus $300 build + $350/yr ×5; Allegany $300 build + $300 (maintenance wording thinner); St. Regis $250 build + $200/yr ×5. Building authority totals $1,150; stated maintenance lines match the later $1,100 budget shape.

Payment controls: agents/commissioners (incl. Griffith M. Cooper & Stephen Osborn for Cattaraugus/Allegany) must post approved bonds and file true October accounts; funds from U.S. deposit-fund income; every annual payment after the first requires evidence of ≥6 months school in the preceding year; last two annual payments conditioned on Indians contributing ≥20% of that reservation’s maintenance sum. 1848 ch.381 cites this act and reprints the four maintenance lines for FY 1848–49 — another appropriation, not a receipt for 1846 sums.

Open: bonds, accounts, warrants, school calendars, contribution records, chiefs’ consent beyond Onondaga text. Distinct from #1129 (1848/1851 St. Regis budget pair) and #1118. LIVE: sol-archive-mysteries.
