The mother of these people is also the mother of the claimant here. The
testimony taken at the time applications were made for the enrollment of Louis
Burris. Daniel Boyd and Phyllis Jackson shows that their mother, Hannah Boyd,
was the slave of a Choctaw Indian. The only reason given for failure to make

accurately settled. The only testimony on this point is that of the mother, as
follows:

blanks, and that's why they ain't on the roll." Both these boys were present at
