![["Miss Thelma Eaglenest received a letter from Page Belcher, a Member of Congress, regarding the investigation of the administration of the Concho School. Belcher enclosed a copy of a letter from Mr. Orme Lewis, Jr. reporting on the Department's investigation. Belcher stated that in light of the response from Mr. Lewis, there was nothing more he could do regarding the problems at the school. However, he encouraged Eaglenest to reach out if she felt there was cause for further investigation in the future. Belcher also mentioned that he had requested a report from the Bureau of Indian Affairs regarding Superintendent Aaron Dry and the petition Eaglenest had signed, and assured her that he would be in touch once he received the report."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Page%20H.%20Belcher%20Collection,%201951-1972/91st%20Congress-CAC_CC_004_10_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_004_10_141_8A_0000-Interior%20-%20Departmental%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs,%201969-1970/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_004_10_141_8A_0005_thumbnail.jpg "Correspondence Regarding Investigation of Concho School Administration")
