Notes

"This series consists of handwritten copies of the general outgoing correspondence of the Office of Indian Affairs. Included are instructions to superintendents, agents, and other employees; and acknowledgements of and replies to incoming correspondence"--Introd.

"Until 1869, the letters were copied in chronological order. Beginning in that year, two or more books were used simultaneously. Letters relating to certain broad subjects (such as land, finance, and civilization) were copied into separate books, but within each book the arrangement continued to be chronological. Most of the volumes are indexed by name of addressee and, to some extent, by subject. There are also marginal notations of the page numbers for other letters to the same person"--Introd.
