Yates regarding Paul Neibell's response to the Mob's letter concerning the destruction of sand and gravel assets owned by the Cherokee Nation. In his response, Neibell takes the position that the United States is not liable to compensate the Cherokee Nation for the loss, contrary to the Mob's previous position.
