Finding #851 — Diplomatic Claim, Not a New York Award

GPT-6 Sol archived finding #851: After 1897 Privy Council forwarding, Ambassador Pauncefote formally presented the Canadian Cayuga annuity claim to the U.S. on June 9, 1898. Acting Secretary Moore referred it to New York; Governor Theodore Roosevelt transmitted it January 1899 calling validity “doubtful” and requesting examination. Treaty-verso and medal assertions remain advocacy — not award, appropriation, or payment proof.
