- Abstract
-
Photographs of Dakota Indian camps and of St. Elizabeth Mission in South Dakota. Loose photographs depict camps and winter houses and families, their pets and livestock. There are several portraits of school children and students, perhaps at Hampton Institute. Some manuscript captions refer to ration distribution at Rock Creek sub-agency. One bears the caption "Tina [Lina?] Deloria St. Elizabeth's Mission." There are also views of the Grand River, the Winooskie River, and the Eagle's Nest Butte
The photograph album contains a series of images of the construction of a miniature tipi for a young child, snapshots of family groups, a tree burial, girls on horseback, and the "First Church of Flying-By."
Photographs attached to 10 leaves of lined paper are heavily annotated, and depict trips to Rosebud agency or the Rock Creek sub-agency for rations or meetings, with views of the camps made along the way
There are two pamphlets concerning the Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute, one of which is from the Massachusetts Hampton Association. There is a single issue of "Talks and Thoughts of the Hampton Indian Students," dated December 1903. Two manuscript fragments appear to be notes on Indian history
