Manuscripts
This group of nine letters consists of letters written to Jonathan Baxter Harrison from several missionaries and educators who were advocates for reforming the U.S. government's policies toward Native Americans, including the management of reservations. The authors are M. D. Baldwin, Blackfeet Agency; Episcopal missionary William J. Cleveland; Reverend Charles S. Cook, whose mother was Yankton Sioux; Clinton B. Fisk, member of the Board of Indian Commissioners; William T. Leeke, former president of Ashland College (now Southern Oregon University); Robert C. Ogden, Hampton Institute; C. C. Painter, agent of the Indian Rights Association; and Terence Powderly, head of the Knights of Labor. The letters are about activities at various Indian agencies, staffing and financial issues, social conditions, publications on Native American rights, and other matters. Herbert Welsh, co-founder of the Indian Rights Association, is mentioned twice.
