mind every impression of such unworthy conduct on my unclear part. I scorn with contempt the unfounded insinuation. The cause of the detention of the Indians in the first instance originated with the Government, of which I have Gen'l Gaines a full and candid explanation personally, and with which he appeared at that time perfectly satisfied, and I have the pleasure to assure you that I hold a letter from the Sec'y of War, in which he assures me that my conduct upon that occasion was approved by the President. It would have afforded me much gratification to have seen you on your arrival at Fort Hawkins or any where else before your departure below, but in this hope I was disappointed by the various & contradictory reports which prevailed as to your route and movements. I am Sir, with high consideration & respect your very obd't serv't. D.B.Mitchell Agent for I.A.
