DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR WASHINGTON,

April 2, 1889

Edmond Mallet, Esq.,

U.S. Indian Inspector

Genoa, Nebraska.

Sir:

This department is in receipt of a letter from Horace R. Chase, Ex-Superintendent of the Genoa School, Nebraska, stating that you have in your possession two books belonging to him, containing data of payments made by him on account of the Government and also on his own personal account, and requesting that the Department instruct you to return the same after making such extracts therefrom as you may require.

If it is not absolutely necessary that these books should accompany your report on the investigation of said school, and if such extracts therefrom, properly verified as relate to the subject matter of your investigation, will answer all purposes of your report, you wil pursue that course, and return the books to Mr. Chase.

If however, good and sufficient reasons exist for sending the original books with your report, you will do so.

Very respectfully,

H.L. Muldrew

1st Assistant Secretary

1713, Ind. Div. '89
