George Room 201 Saxton Bldg., St Louis, Mo., Dear Mr. George: - I have your letter of the 2” relating to Euchee Indian work and wish to say these Indians have enjoyed years of civilization and it has subtracted the art of a native craft. I am with the Creek Indians, also of the five Tribes and none of these have any specific craft as have our Navajos + other less civilized Indians. I notice youspell Euchee, Yuchi + presume you mean the people I refer to - they were + are closely associated with the Creeks. I regret my inability to assist you in your search for work of this nature Very sincerely yours - Gertrude G Milton Superintendent Eufaula Indian School
