The fact that over 400 Indians
died OF the rolls but whose names
placed on the rolls at the Choctaw
and Chickasaw Nations through fraud
Is revealed IN a report just laid be-
fore the secretary of interior. IL APP
pears that in all cases where Indians
died a few days before the final rolls
were closed IN March 1906, grafters
would secure death certificates from
physicians and through the conni-
vance ol others and through unfair
means would secure certificates show
ing that death had actually taken
place after the rolls had been closed
fheir method of procedure was some
thing like this. They would go TO the
physician who had attended the de-
ceased indian several weeks after the
demise OF the redman and ask for
certificate of death, az the same
time stating tnat John Jones a rela-
tive OF the dead man had informed
him that the indian in question mad
died on such and such a date in
March usually a few days after the
rolls had closed. Armed with this
certificate and the patent II was pret-
