Scope and Contents

As the young men and women of his tribe have been educated in Catholic Schools at the Osage Mission in Kansas, his tribe unaminously desires Catholic schools. In the Treaty of 1865 the Osages demanded Catholic schools under the direction of Father John Schoemaker, but as yet none have been granted. Their petitions and delegations to Washington have been disregarded. They ask him to help place their petition before the government officers so that Catholic school teachers will be given to them. The Indians are dissatisfied with the Quaker Missionaries. In James Alphonsus McMaster Collection. Copy of A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
