- Description:
- The letter is from Elmer Thomas to Charles E. Burch regarding a contract being drawn between the Secretary of the Interior and officials of the Chickasaw and Choctaw Tribes of Indians. Once the contract is prepared, it will be voted on by the members of the two tribes and then considered by Congress. Burch is inquiring about the government buying coal-asphalt sand from the tribes, which they have been waiting on since 1902. He requests that Elmer Thomas look into the matter.
