of the North East corner of Township 32, N. Range 2 East. These being the facts in the field, and we being on the ground and knowing the condition of the lines and corners would it not be practicable to close Township 33, N. Range 4 East without an error, i.e. if too great an error is not found in the field, then run a random line West from the South-West corner of Township 32, N. Range 4 East, & if an error is found, to throw it on the South boundary of Section 31 Township 32 N. Range 2 East; then to run the line north from Township 31 ^[[illegal?]] Ranges 2 & 4 East, and if an error is found it can be thrown upon the legal place.

May I ask that you will fully investigate this matter, as we are in the midst of the difficulty surrounded by Gov't surveys, & desire of duplicate instructions as soon as possible.

As to the requests of [[????????]], it will give me pleasure to do everything you desire in the vicinity of this reservation.

Respectfully
