Doebler asks for clarification from Langer if these Indians have gained residence in Ward County or if they are eligible to return to their respective reservations. Most of the Indians, says Doebler, come from Fort Berthold and the Turtle Mountain Agency. A few Indians are getting sick, Doebler continues, and do not want to return home to receive treatment as they are not receiving adequate treatment at their reservations. Doebler surmises that the doctor at the Turtle Mountain Agency should be investigated because, although the Indians are eligible for medical care on reservations, they do not want to receive care there. Ward County is unable to take care “of all these Indians,” concludes Doebler, without being reimbursed by either the Federal or local government. See also: Letter from Senator Langer to R.J.
