Scope and Contents

Scope and Contents
A long time ago Major Powell had me prepare notes for a Report to the Census on the education of Indians. Before it was half done, owing to lack of funds, the work ceased. Years afterward the manuscript was sent to me; but I am convinced that it belongs to the Bureau of the Census, so I am herewith transmitting it."
