Description1 paged typed letter to Mary Misao Fujii in Seattle, Washington from George Fujii, in Fort Lincoln Internment Camp in Bismarck, North Dakota on March 31, 1942. In the upper left-hand corner, George wrote "Business Letter". George writes about a policy loan agreement from Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada, to observe curfew strictly, as well as sharing with Nish that he needs to help Swinomish to buy oysters in the Spanish Bay, rush the truck sale, and to tell the Native Americans that they need to pick oysters during the April day time tides.

On lower left, a difficult to read purple square stamp reads "DETENTION ALIEN, ENEMY MAIL, EXAMINED, BY ...., U.S.A. & N.S."

Support the understanding and appreciation of the Japanese American experience.
