Elizur Butler was a medical missionary on the Trail of Tears with a Cherokee detachment. His letter to his mission board preserved at Harvard estimates deaths at one out of four – however, he made this estimate with no facts or figures, and before his detachment had arrived on Oklahoma. In fact, the deaths in his detachment did not approach the one in four figure, he quoted. Despite his mistake in numbers, he did serve the Cherokee as a missionary until his death in 1857.
