Monument planned for Sequoyah in Indian Territory
A Tulsa correspondent reports Sequoyah the Cherokee alphabet inventor will be honored with a native marble shaft at Muldrow in the Cherokee Nation. The Sequoyah Monument Association will fund and oversee completion, with Cherokees leading most subscriptions. The project dates to 1891, with work moving forward as funds come in.
