Letter Lieut. Col. L. J. F. Rooney to Chas F. Barrett, Adjutant General, 1921 July 29

              July 29, 1921

 From: Lt. Col. L. J. F. Rooney, Tulsa, Oklahoma

 To: Gen. Chas. F. Barrett, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

 Subject: Submitting Reports Race Riot, Tulsa, Oklahoma.

 1. In compliance with yours of the 27th in the matter of "conduct"  of the Tulsa National Guard during Riot at Tulsa: Herewith I hand  you reports of Major Byron Kirkpatrick, Major Chas. W. Daley, Major  Paul R. Brown, Major James A. Bell, Capt. Frank Van Voorhis, Capt.  John W. McCuen and Capt. Roy R. Dunlap. My personal report I have  nearly completed and expect to mail it to you in a few days. I  regret that owing to various conditions at my home station I have  been unable to submit these reports at an earlier date. More accurate  data seemed to develop as time wore on and in consequence I found it  necessary to direct the several officers, above mentioned, to add to  or change slightly their submitted report. This accounts in a good  measure for the delay in forwarding these reports to you. Because of  the many developments that may occurr in this whole matter in days to come  I figured that these reports should be as accurate as the elapsed time could  make them.
