Yazoo Fraud \Yaz"oo Fraud\ (U. S. Hist.)       The grant by the State of Georgia, by Act of Jan. 7, 1795, of       35,000,000 acres of her western territory, for $500,000, to       four companies known as the          {Yazoo Companies} from the region granted; -- commonly so             called, the act being known as the          {Yazoo Frauds Act}, because of alleged corruption of the             legislature, every member but one being a shareholder in             one or more of the companies. The act granting the land             was repealed in 1796 by a new legislature, and the             repealing provision was incorporated in the State             constitution in 1798. In 1802 the territory was ceded to             the United States. The claims of the purchasers, whom             Georgia had refused to compensate, were sustained by the             United States Supreme Court, which (1810) declared the             repealing act of 1796 unconstitutional. Congress in 1814             ordered the lands sold and appropriated $5,000,000 to pay             the claims.
