Description
This letter, written fifteen years into their friendship, discusses both politics and the Salish language in equal measure. Mourning Dove was angry with the local Indian agent, Moore, because he had been telling people she did not write Cogewea. She and her women’s club were circulating a petition to oust Moore as agent. At the same time, Mourning Dove remained focused on their folklore project, answering McWhorter’s questions about language...
This letter, written fifteen years into their friendship, discusses both politics and the Salish language in equal measure. Mourning Dove was angry with the local Indian agent, Moore, because he had been telling people she did not write Cogewea. She and her women’s club were circulating a petition to oust Moore as agent. At the same time, Mourning Dove remained focused on their folklore project, answering McWhorter’s questions about language and correcting him on usage. It is clear to see that Mourning Dove has become both a more confident leader and a more confident writer as the 1920s drew to a close. 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; Salish language; Okanogan dialect; Spokane dialect; Wenatchee dialect; work; Moore; Indian agent; Cogewea; Superintendent Myers; Senator Dill; Lake Tribes; Great Spirit; spirituality; friendship

This letter is written during a rare summer break for Mourning Dove, the Fourth of July holiday weekend.

This letter is written during a rare summer break for Mourning Dove, the Fourth of July holiday weekend. The company where her husband Fred is employed would not hire women, so she had been swimming and readying herself for Indian games (such as stick game) at the Fourth of July celebration. She bathed in the lake and then switched her body with nettles, a cleansing practice designed to bring luck. The letter also includes response to Dean Guie’s questions regarding the Coyote stories and an account of mutual acquaintances written in response to McWhorter’s question. This letter illustrates Mourning Dove’s connections to her communities, to heritage, and also to McWhorter as a friend and confidante.
