S' 10462-20 JWS NE.D Supt. & S.D.A. Encl, 101 Genoag Nehraska Supt. Sam B. Davis, Dear Mr. avis: I hand you herewith cashier’s check #7863 on the Colony •tate Bank made payable to your order in the sum of 085.00 which represents volunteer deposit on the part of Onano for Maxie or Mazine Onaho, pupil from this xoservation enrolled in your School and -s an a is to be used Lor nor return to this reservation for a short vacc tion, balanco to co into hor bonk account and be held for return carfare and expenses this fall. A July 14, 1919 As regards the return of Jeanette and innie Biggs, re- garding which xou recently wrote me, I be to stste that the sum od 280.00 vhcih wac sent vou from the aacount of Nelson Riggs was with the nndorstandng thet such shond bo used ■' r ‘in Jo. The presentdinencisl condition of the parents of these trro girls would not justify me in recomonding that this money be used for carfare. However. I have instructed the k;r.cr to ask the parent if it is possible to raise an additional sum which would make it pufibnat to take care of their expenses both ways. I suggest th at the girls remain at Genoa. I am sorry that it is only a matter of finance which necessitates their losing aportion of the vacation but I am not responsible for some of the reckless expen- ditures which the parents have made in the oast and I suppose the children will have to suffer for it to a certain extent. You may expect to hear from this office immediately if we have anyth! thing favorable for the girls. V ery re spec tf ully.
