Letter : Pine Ridge Agency, Dakota Territory, to Rt. Rev. William H. Hare, 1883 Jun 20.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/81070798

ALS written on United States Indian Service letterhead describing the contents of a letter to Indian Agent Dr. [Valentine] McGillycuddy from the Department of the Interior dated October 18, 1881, regarding the right of way purchased from the Sioux by the Chicago, Milwaukee, and St. Paul Railroad. Of particular concern to Welsh is the fact that Sioux children were allowed to sign the purchase agreement. He also states that he has enjoyed Hare's society during his visit to the Agency, and has gained valuable information which he should be able to make good use of when he returns to the East.
