Boar of Indian commissioners, 
New York, Aug. 12, 1982

T. J. Morgan, commissioner. 
My dear General.

I have pleasure in handing you the enclosed paper. Am sorry that there was delay in sending it but I have had to help my brothers at the office and have not had time to give to such matters.
From letters recently received from Lapwai I gather that matters are growing worse on the reservation.
Mr. Robbins is [[underlined]] pushing [[/underlined]] those who testified against him in any way.

Yours truly,
D. R. James.
