Pierce is inquiring about payments to the Choctaws and Chickasaws for the sale of their coal and asphalt lands. Carl Albert, M.C., informs her that living enrolled members will receive around $350 per capita payment in July. Payments to heirs of deceased members will be made after living members are paid. He advises Pierce and the Gollihare family to contact the Superintendent in Muskogee if they do not receive proof of heirship notices. Pierce also asks about the timing of payments to living Choctaws.</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
