Due to staffing limitations, the researcher may find it necessary to visit the library for inquiries that require extensive reference research.
While an effort has been made to verify the transcription against the original text, complete accuracy cannot be guaranteed. Researchers are urged to match the transcription against the original article to authenticate exact quotes. Issues of the Cherokee Phoenix are available on microfilm.
