Osage Chiefs to Visit Washington for Land Rules Change
An Osage delegation and interpreters plan a Washington trip to press removal of land sale restrictions and to secure shared land allotments for babies born in the past six months. Ten chiefs will join interpreters, with Black Dog and Brave among leaders, amid rivalry for the interpreter post. The Cheyennes will follow with Paul Boynton and Washee, seeking tribal fund division and notable land deals. A light note follows with a joke about a rooster named Robinson.
