| Description |
This document provides the transcript of a meeting among the Uncompahgre Utes. Captain Hall reports on the status of allotments being used for grazing and farming purposes and describes the process for selling and leasing land. Hall advises the Uncompahgres to find work building canals along the Duchesne River and specifies that water that has been designated to the Uncompahgres will only be theirs permanently if they cultivate their land. Members of the council voice their opinions regarding the federal government's suggestions regarding land use, water rights, and employment |
