Nez Perce Agency Idaho, June 25, 1889. Hon. Comm'r of Indian Affairs Sir: In my communication of yesterday asking for authority to purchase hay and oats in open market I made an overestimate in the amount asked for. I shall need 2000 lbs of oats and 2500 lbs of hay. I would therefore ask authority to purchase in open market for the subsistance of my team in the field, to be purchased as required. 2000 lbs of oats at a cost not exceeding 2½ cents per lb. 2500 lbs of hay at a cost not exceeding 1 cent per lb. Yours respectfully [[signature]] Alice C. Fletcher [[/signature]] Special Ind. Agt.
