Fort Confederation [Tombigbee]… Here, in 1802, was negotiated one of the series of treaties by which the United States absorbed the Choctaw lands at a price of one broken promise per square mile. The Colonial Dames of America have placed on the site a marker with the inscription: "Here Civilization and Savagery met and the Wilderness Beheld the Glory of France."
