Letter of
November 15, 1958
from
William McKinley Osceola,
Patriarch of the
Miccosukee Seminole Nation
disowning his renegade son,
Mike Osceola. |
|
To Whom It May Concern:
It is with profound regret that I
publicly announce
that the Indian who calls himself Mike Osceola, who was once
my son, is a traitor to his people and a disgrace to us.
He has no further right to use the name
OSCEOLA as he is
no longer a member of our family, or the Miccosukee Seminole
Natio n.

Envoys of my Miccosukeee Nation, who are going to
Washington on November 17, in the event Mike Osceola appears
there to make trouble as he has in the past. I want the
world
to know that his father, his family and his Tribe consider
him
a ren agade and disown him.
