Miss Fletcher -

The Omahas have solved the question of land matter to suit me. They will sell all the land west of the R.R. and save their goods lands on the East of the RR for them to settle on when they get ready. Thus they can get all the benefits of RR and also make homes for themselves.

I send papers herewith for you to use as you thing best. The House can [[accessed?]] - Yours [[Will Carson?]]
