The text consists of correspondence regarding per capita payments for members of the Osage tribe from judgment funds. The Indian Claims Commission entered a final judgment in 1970, but distribution of the funds is pending legislation from Congress. The process of identifying beneficiaries, passing legislation, and preparing payment rolls may take several months. The letter writer expresses hope that the funds will be distributed soon to benefit the Osage tribe.
