John Dady states
"...there is a white man by the name of Henry Smith married to Agnes Moro, a Pala Indian. These people live on the Pala Reservation. I presume he is the same man as the Henry E. Smith you mention in your letter. He lives at Pala by right of sufferage only on account of being married to an Indian..."
