Answer 1

Here is one example.

"Royal Proclamation

Given at the Council Chamber in Boston this third day of November 1755 in the twenty-ninth year of the Reign of our Sovereign Lord George the Second by the Grace of God King of Great Britain, France, and Iceland, Defender of the Faith.

By His Honour's command
J. Willard, Secry.
God Save the King

Whereas the tribe of Penobscot Indians have repeatedly in a perfidious manner acted contrary to their solemn submission unto his Majesty long since made and frequently renewed.

I have, therefore, at the desire of the House of Representatives thought fit to issue this Proclamation and to declare the Penobscot Tribe of Indians to be enemies, rebels, and traitors to his Majesty. And I do hereby require his Majesty's subjects of the Province to embrace all opportunities of pursuing, captivating, killing, and destroying all and every one of the aforesaid Indians.

And whereas the General Court of this Province have voted that a bounty... be granted and allowed to be paid out of the Province Treasury... The premiums of bounty follwing viz:

For every scalp of a male Indian brought in as evidence of their being killed as aforesaid, forty pounds.

For every scalp of such female Indian or male Indian under the age of twelve years that shall be killed and brought in as evidence of their being killed as aforesaid, twenty pounds."

Answer 2

in reality they never solved anything ... but for school work try looking up some peace treaties and elaborate on one of those .

The United States was not yet a nation when it made its first treaty with the Indians. The year was 1778, and the treaty was made with a strategic tribe, the Delawares. The colonists and the British were at war, and in some regions the Indians held the balance of power.
