This letter, contained in the Museum's Bill Miner file, is a request to Armstrong Museum staff to provide information on the time that Bill Miner spent in the Armstrong Spallumchen area in 1903. The letter was written on flimsy paper, so photocopying is difficult as writing on the opposite side bleeds through during copying. This writer hand wrote his translation of the letter. The back of the letter seems to conatin notes made by museum staff on follow up to the letter, and a typewritten summary is also in the Bill Miner file.

In them she mentioned that Chisholm was a dark crippled gunman with a fast horse which he sometimes let her ride. The article gives a good outline on the happenings of that April 1, 1904.
