Answer:

The phrase "gives me pleasure" help contribute to a tone of  satisfaction in this excerpt as A: It implies that the removal of American Indians from their land is something to celebrate.

Explanation:

“Indian Removal Act” was signed by President “Andrew Jackson” in 1830 when he was authorized to award unsettled lands in the west of Mississippi in exchange of the ancestral Indian lands of the tribes.

Use of the words like ‘happy consummation’ and ‘gives me pleasure’ in Jackson’s speech shows that he was very positive about his actions. He was happy and cheerful in doing so. Many tribes accepted this act peacefully, though many opposed this relocation.
