This letter, written nearly fifteen years into their friendship, focuses a great deal on Mourning Dove’s activism. She lobbied effectively for equal treatment of Indian employees at the Biles Coleman Mill in Omak, and she had made effective partnerships with the Okanogan County Sheriff’s Department (half of the Colville Reservation is in Okanogan County). She was also developing the women’s club she led and she continued to give public talks on Colville tribal culture and tradition. These accounts illustrate her status as a recognized expert within and about her communities.

This letter, written more than fifteen years into their friendship, illustrates the vibrant range of topics Mourning Dove and McWhorter regularly discussed. From a clarification about elk’s rib for the Coyote story 'Chickadee Makes a Shoo-mesh Bow' (originally written by Mourning Dove as 'Chickadee Kills Elk'), to frustration with Four Seas, the publisher of Cogewea, to an observation that film star Bebe Daniels would be nearby making a movie so perhaps Mourning Dove would approach her about making a film of Cogewea, the letter depicts broad intellectual engagement with her cultural 7 work and also with the broader world of what we could call 'media' today. It also demonstrates her activist work because it included a clipping (now lost) from an article she wrote in the Wenatchee Daily News, 'Mourning Dove’s Ideas to Help Her People.' KEYWORDS: Colville Indian; Colville Tribes; Colville Confederated Tribes; Colville Reservation; Okanagan; Okanagan; Washington State; British Columbia; Morning Dove; Mourning Dove; Christine Quintasket; Christal McCleod; Christine Galler; Mrs. Fred Galler; folklore; McWhorter; legends; shoo-mesh, spirit power; elk; deer; chickadee; writing; editing; Cogewea; movie; Bebe Daniels; royalties; Four Seas; Wenatchee Daily; Omak Commercial Club; activism.

This letter, written nearly sixteen years into their friendship, is primarily a response to McWhorter’s requests for clarification on Salish words and also for information on the Scho-yel-pi (also spelled Shoyelpi) Indians, who became known as the Colvile Band of Indians on the Colville Reservation. The two different spellings of Colvile/Colville was intentional on the part of the U.S. government, because each spelling represents something different: the original Fort Colvile, built by the British-owned Hudson’s Bay Company, and the American Fort Colville, a U.S. Army post after which the Colville Indian Reservation would be named. Mourning Dove outlines the Indigenous and British and American histories of this place, including her own history. These accounts demonstrate her vast historical, political, and cultural knowledge, and reinforce her status as a regional expert. KEYWORDS: Colville Indian; Colville Tribes; Colville Confederated Tribes; Colville Reservation; Okanagan; Okanagan; Washington State; British Columbia; Morning Dove; Mourning Dove; Christine Quintasket; Christal McCleod; Christine Galler; Mrs. Fred Galler; folklore; McWhorter; language; Okanogan dialect; Salish; legends; Scho-yel-pi (Colvile) Indians; Kettle Falls; Old Fort Colville; Pinkney City; Colville Reservation; Chief Kin-kan-nawh; Nicola; Penticton, British Columbia, Canada; Fort Steel, British Columbia, Canada; Walla Walla, Washington; allotments; Okanogan Rodeo; root hat; Nez Perce; Nespelem Celebration
