- Description:
- Sim L. Liles received a letter from Senator Fred R. Harris regarding the interest of John Johnson, the surviving husband of Flora Homma, Choctaw No. 14657 deceased. The letter mentions that the Bureau of Indian Affairs has agreed to leave part of the money in question until Johnson and LeForce can resolve their claim to it. A response from Acting Commissioner Theodore W. Taylor confirms this agreement and states that the fund will be distributed accordingly. The letter also mentions that Johnson is a non-Indian and the District Court of Stephens County has determined his status as the surviving husband. Enclosures with both letters are returned with the response.
