Abstract
"Some time during the month of September, 18880, some twenty-six Piutes, men, women and children, who had been located at this agency, influenced by false representations and hoping by some means to find a way of returning to their old haunts; left this agency without my knowledge or permission, and before I was informed of the occurrence were at the Warm Springs Agency were they have since been. As the greaty body of the Piutes, including many relatives of the fugitives above referred to are permanently located here, as their goods and supplies are all here, and as this is their proper place, all of them being included in my receipt given the military authorities for Piute prisoners in 1879; I respectfully ask that Agent Smith be instructed to deliver said fugitive Piutes to me for return to this agency."
