Complains of Graham's not writing enough. Mentions that he has written "to the Secty of War on Indn afs. in relation to the points suggested by you..." The only news from the Indians in the Illinois Territory, which Graham oversaw, was the application by Chief Anderson for provisions. Indicates that he will not purchase the needed corn, remarking that the Delaware Indians of Illinois will "join their friends on White River" and mentions the prospect of inducing the Kickapoo to move in the spring. Discusses some politics and one man's pursuit of a position as an Indian agent. Address leaf is not in Clark's hand. The free frank is not accompanied by a signature; "FREE" is penned on the cover.
