![["Congressman Page Belcher received a letter from Osage Indians regarding the probate of the will of Edmund Kennedy Kenworthy, a deceased Osage Indian, and the distribution of his estate. The Indian Agency had ruled out the original will that would have kept the lands for Kenworthy's children, and a hearing was scheduled for December 11, 1952. Belcher requested the Department of the Interior to investigate the matter and potentially postpone the hearing for a thorough review. He also informed his attorney, George B. Schwabe, Jr., about the situation and requested his assistance. Belcher received a response from the Department of the Interior explaining the appeal process for decisions adverse to the interests of the Osage Indians."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Page%20H.%20Belcher%20Collection,%201951-1972/83rd%20Congress-CAC_CC_004_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_004_2_12_35A_0000-Interior%20Department%20-%20Departmental.%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs.,%201953-1954/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_004_2_12_35a_0021_thumbnail.jpg "Correspondence Regarding the Probate of Mr. Kenworthy's Will")
![["The document is from Reverend Zunigha to Congressman Belcher, requesting assistance in removing the guardian of Mr. Jules C. Pappin, an Osage Indian, who believes his guardian has misused his money. The document explains that Mr. Pappin was issued a certificate of competency by the Department of the Interior, but he still needs to petition the County Court for removal of his guardian. The Reverend urges Congressman Belcher to use his influence to investigate and stop the corruption."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Page%20H.%20Belcher%20Collection,%201951-1972/83rd%20Congress-CAC_CC_004_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_004_2_12_35A_0000-Interior%20Department%20-%20Departmental.%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs.,%201953-1954/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_004_2_12_35a_0024_thumbnail.jpg "Correspondence Regarding the Guardianship of Osage Indian, Jules C.
