This was a FUN lookup!!! It was the first thing on my list this morning and to tell you the truth it made my day!! I hope you do not mind my sharing this with the group, as once again, it shows what can be found in a document in a lookup. DOC # 31392 is found on Microfilm roll CRN 37 Microfilm pages: 1258-1260. This microfilm is in the Indian Archives at the OHS. The document is a letter and I am going to type it in verbatim. The misspelled words are not mine. It is a handwritten letter, one page is barely legible.
