Dear Miss Fletcher:-

As there are still a few unassigned subjects which it is desirable to treat in the Dictionary of Indian tribes, I beg to ask if you will have the opportunity of preparing a brief article on each, similar in scope to those you have already undertaken.  The unassigned subjects are: Adornment, (personal), Buffalo, Camping and Camp-circles, Dolls, Dramatic representation, Dreams, Feasts, and Fasting, Furniture, Land tenure, Masks, Oratory, Orientation, Property and Property-right, Soldiers, Tattooing, Trading post, War and War discipline.

If you can take any or all of these for brief treatment under the conditions that you have accepted for the others, I shall be gratified.

Very truly yours,
[[signature]] W.H.Holmes [[/signature]]
Chief.

Miss Alice C. Fletcher,
214 First Street, S.E.
Washington, D.C.
