Letter with autograph signature on Out West letterhead to Ora Oak, commenting on the situation between his brother Henry Oak and Hubert Howe Bancroft on the publication of the Works of Hubert Howe Bancroft and Henry Oak's assertations that Bancroft did not give him credit for actually writing several of the volumes (see: Literary Industries in a New Light.
