__________ were wills that Indians signed in which title to land was transferred the moment they died, often to a non-Indian who paid them only a small sum of money

A) allotment claims

B) death claims

C) inheritance claims

D) transfer claims

The correct answer is B. Generally, there were restrictions which forbade the sale of the land, but it could be willed to someone who would inherit it upon its Indian owner's death. Therefore, some people looked for the sicker and the older Indians and for a small sum of money, they signed wills (death claims) that were transferred little the moment they died.
