Re:  Transfer of remains of Warren BIGHAWK.

Cheyenne & Arapaho Agency
Darlington, Oklahoma
June 1, 1911

Mr. D.B. TAYLOR,
Additional Farmer,
Kingfisher, Okla.

Dear Sir:

RED LEAF, of the Calument District, states that she wishes to transfer the remains of her son, Warren BIGHAWK, now buried on the allotment of ELK RIVER, to the cemetery at the Kingfisher Mission.  Please see Rev. Mr. HAMILTON as to whether he approves of the plan and if so, send me an estimate of the cost of disinterring the remains, enclosing them in a neat wooden box, and reinterring them in the cemetery.  Warren BIGHAWK died about six years ago.

Very truly yours,
Wm. B. FREER,
Supt. & Spl. Disb. Agt.
