![["In the letter dated October 21, 1963, J.D. Lewis declines the offer to serve as a member of the General Counsel of the Chickasaw Tribe, but offers his support in legislation affecting self-rule and restoring the capitol at Tishomingo. He expresses pride in Governor Overton James and offers to help with fundraising efforts for the restoration of the Museum. Lewis also reflects on the meaning of the word Tishomingo and urges action after waiting for a long time."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_038_8_32_20_0033.jpg "Letter from J.D.
