reservation, and he shall send to the Commissioner of Indian
Affairs his certificate that such consent has been voluntarily
given before such child shall be removed from such reservation. And
it shall be unlawful for any Indian agent or other employee of the
Government to induce, or seek to induce, by withholding rations or
