Description
This letter dated April 4, 1946 from Three Affiliated Tribes Tribal Chairman Martin Cross to United States (US) Senator William Langer discusses a few topics with Langer. Cross informs Langer that Mr. Beauchamp and Mr. Levings (likely referring to Peter Beauchamp and Martin Levings who both served on the Three Affiliated Tribes Tribal Council) are political opponents of Langer. Cross informs Langer that he took an active part in the non-partisan league convention where he had a resolution concerning the Garrison Dam adopted. Cross requests a photograph and a copy of recent hearings from Langer. Cross informs Langer that he had a conversation with Jim Thornburg. Cross asks Langer to contact D'Arcy McNickle regarding an affidavit concerning the head nurse at the Agency Hospital.
