Context

Two letters; one from Don Reynolds to Mr. and Mrs. Mike George discussing the second letter from Carl Chapman to Don Reynolds. The correspondence discussed artifacts found in the George's basement (Oregon, MO). The artifacts seem to be causing some confusion as they seem to come from a variety of cultures/dates. This letter specifically refers to a pottery sherd that is being returned to them with the letter and references that the location of their new house was likely a burial location for a long time.
