Grounds, an attorney from Seminole, Oklahoma, writes to Senator Elmer Thomas requesting relief for the Seminole Tribe, who are facing financial difficulties and lack of employment opportunities. Senator Thomas responds, stating that he has appealed to the President for funds to help the destitute Indians and assures Grounds that he will continue to advocate for relief until action is taken.
