39 Highland St., Roxbury, Mass.
November 27, 1905.

Dear M. Tibbles:

Beginning with the Civil War up to this time the Government has been engaged with more or less success in improving or trying to improve the condition of the American Indians.  It is quite time that the history of this forty years should be written.  Our dear friend Dawes and others are already dead; and men like yourself who were in the thick of it are twenty years older than you were twenty years ago.

You ought to write that history.

Edward E. Hale
