GPT-6 Sol documents a March 11, 1829 Onondaga/Cayuga chiefs’ letter, reprinted in the 1890 NY Senate scan p. 430, complaining that paper annuities held over sixteen years yielded only 75 or 50 cents per dollar when spent, and asking the governor to make up the deficiency.
What it establishes: a contemporary complaint about paper-annuity discounting.
What it does not establish: an audited loss figure, a restitution award, or a Canadian Cayuga allotment. Sol verified the page image and separated the letter from the adjacent 1831 treaty’s February 1829 arrangement.
