This series contains letters sent by Dr. Arthur E. Winter pertaining to both general and specific medical situations of Indians in the Tomah Agency. Much of the correspondence is with Indians who were to be or had been patients concerning treatment and care. There are some letters to other hospitals regarding admission or treatment of patients from the Agency. A few letters, to the Office of Indian Affairs and state agencies and officials, pertain to the policy regarding admission of patients to the hospital and the welfare of Indians in the area. Letters subsequent to December 1942, when the hospital closed, are from the Field Nurse, mostly concerning results of tests given to former patients and advising as to admission to other medical facilities.
