Give the children from here my best regards. Superintendent. Very truly yours. My dear Mr. Davis: Mr. Sam B• Davis, Supt., Genoa Indian School, Genoa, Nebraska. October 21, 1918. We are having our siege of the influenza, all pupils and all but four employees have been confiadd to hospital or room and many developed pneumonia with it but there have been no fatalities to date and we believe we are going to get through without any. Our physician took down when we most needed him and it was a task to secure the services of another. Iio nurses in the country, so you can somewhat imagine our predicament. I am inclosing herewith a check for $4.00 payable to the order of Maxie Onaha, one of the girls transferred to your school this past September from this school and ask that you hand it to her or have it properly endorsed and cashed for her so that it will clear out of our accounts. The check was drawn and not delivered and has been overlooked since.
