The Point No Point Treaty is signed…
1855 CE
Governor of Washington Territory, Isaac Stevens, had convened the treaty council on January 25, with the S'Klallam, the Chimakum, and the Skokomish tribes.
Under the terms of the treaty, the original inhabitants of northern Kitsap Peninsula and Olympic Peninsula are to cede ownership of their land in exchange for small reservations along Hood Canal and a payment of sixty thousand dollars from the federal government.
The treaty requires the natives to trade only with the United States, to free all their slaves, and it abjures them not to acquire any new slaves.
