The handwritten original of the Point Elliott Treaty of 1855 is on display at the Mukilteo Light Station in Washington.
The document is the centerpiece of an exhibit that marks the 150th anniversary of the signing of the treaty. The Mukilteo Historical Society put the exhibit together, which also features arts and crafts and photos on loan from the Tulalip Tribes.
The opening ceremony for the exhibit will be held tomorrow.
