Worcester vs. Georgia
![Page 169: GSE SS8H4 Westward Expansion in Georgia · •Crawford W. Long •First to use ether as an anesthetic for surgery LINK TO GA STORY Famous UGA Alumni •Henry W. Grady •First editor](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042315/5f0436647e708231d40cde55/html5/thumbnails/169.jpg)
STORY TIMEThe Cherokee leadership hoped the decision would persuade the federal government to intervene against Georgia and end the talk of removal. Georgia ignored the Supreme Court's ruling, refused to release the missionaries, and continued to press the federal government to remove the Cherokees. President Jackson did not enforce the decision against the state and instead called on the Cherokees to relocate or fall under Georgia's jurisdiction. (Although Jackson is widely quoted as saying, "John Marshall has made his decision; now let him enforce it," his actual words to Brigadier General John Coffee were: "The decision of the supreme court has fell still born, and they find that it cannot coerce Georgia to yield to its mandate.")
