- Description:
- The author of the letter expresses regret for being misquoted in an article regarding the appointment of Belvin as Choctaw Chief. They mention that Belvin had received a letter from the recipient of the letter, indicating opposition to his appointment. The author recommends that Belvin should be appointed despite any disagreements, as he received majority votes and the salary comes from Choctaw funds. They express concern that the delay in the appointment may lead some Choctaws to vote Republican in the upcoming election.
