Dear Miss. Fletcher.
   Yours to Mrs Pratt tells us your address.  I got 12 Navajoes & 3 Pueblos, 6 more Pueblos to follow.
   We were in the Bi-centennial with 150 pupils.  It was a Big Thing.  Authority is given me to keep the extra Omahas, on payment of account specified.  Next year we will have better allowance from Congress, I hope.
  Am almost buried in correspondence.  Your early visit will enable a full canvas of the situation.
  All well, Grand baby!
  Your friend
