Carlos Montezuma, Dear Friend,

Your interested letter was rec'd May 1st - All of our family thought I had a photo of such a fine looking young man but were quite surprised when I told them that he was a full blooded Apache Indian. All here think the Mojave Indians are very kind and peaceable but are we unclear of an Apache thinking there is no good whatever in any of that tribe. Your letter and the photo seem proof against that thing. It was very kind of you to remember me with the photo. I assure you I prize it very highly and will place it with my choicest collection. I proudly show it to any friends and tell them what an Apache has accomplished and unclear
