Description
This letter, dated August 7, 1952, from Irene Martin Edwards on behalf of United States (US) Senator William Langer to John W. Chase of Elbowoods on the Fort Berthold Reservation in North Dakota, makes reference to a recent letter from Chase explaining that he held a contract to haul coal to the Fort Berthold Reservation and had been owed a sum of $200 for his work since approximately the middle of March.
Edwards explains that, while Senator Langer is currently in North Dakota, she is replying on Langer's behalf, and that "we have taken up this claim with the authorities in the Senator's name to see what can be done to expedite payment."
