Pratt Responds to Criticism of Cochran Regarding Durability of Wagons

Richard Henry Pratt responds to an Office of Indian Affairs letter regarding the criticism regarding wagons manufactured at the Carlisle Indian School. Pratt states that Cochran is known to misuse wagons causing them to breakdown quickly and requests that he ship the broken wagon back so it can be examined.

W. A. Jones writes in a note that Pratt's suggestion should be carried out.
