The District Land Office in Phoenix can provide information and diagrams of vacant tracts for a fee. Circular 1588 containing regulations for soldiers and sailors' public land rights was also enclosed. The General Land Office offered further assistance to Mr. Phillips and returned his letter with relevant information.
