- The document is from Carl Albert, a member of Congress, to George C. Williams, addressing the sale of segregated coal and asphalt lands to the government and the payment to the Chickasaw and Choctaw tribes. Albert states that the full amount of $8,500,000 has been included in an appropriation bill and that he is working to expedite the per capita payments. He anticipates the payments to be made within three months. Williams had inquired about the payment and Albert assures him that he is working to settle the matter as soon as possible.
