Abstract

Buck is requesting any "contraband meat that can be turned over to Frank Sohappy at the Wapato Long House before the Thanksgiving feast which will be on Thanksgiving Day." They also give early warning that meat will be needed for the first foods feast in April, where a memorial will be done for Tomanawash. The second letter is sent to Rex Buck after receiving a response back about deer. He also describes a visit with Frank Sohappy and his wife.
