Description
A black-and-white photograph of a Native American man, identified as Alexander, Yakima Indian. He is sitting on a blanket-covered object on a carpet strewn with straw. Behind him on the left is a light-colored broad-brimmed felt hat with a feather in the hatband. His hair is pulled back from his face on the top of his head, and hangs down in two pigtails on his chest which are wrapped with dark fur hairwraps. A small amount of hair on each side is threaded through quills and beads and hangs separately. He wears disk earrings and a beaded choker. His heavy dark cloth shirt has two buttons on the placket, which only extends halfway down the shirt. There is a button on each cuff as well. Above his elbows he wears wide beaded armbands with geometric designs. His light-colored leggings have designs in brass tacks below the knees, and insets of woven material with geometric designs which run the length of the front. Fringes, ermines, and braids hang off them. His moccasins are beaded with a floral pattern. His hands on his lap hold a hatchet-style pipe which has a triangular woven and fringed decoration on the end. Small bells hang amongst the fringe, which is so long that a half of it rests on the floor. Around his waist he wears a woven or beaded belt with squares of color. From it hangs a split leather belt with brass tacks, which forms two loops.

This photograph was identified as 'Jennie Peo, with children, in camp' from Major Moorhouse.

The baby is dressed in a long, white, cloth dress. Two young boys are standing on her right side. The boys are dressed in cloth shirts and overalls. The shorter boy is standing in front of the taller boy; he has a scarf or bandanna around his neck and is wearing leather boots. Both boys have very short hair. A young girl is standing on the left side of her mother. She is wearing a cotton dress with a collar and pockets, socks, and leather boots that lace up above the ankles. She has a white cloth bonnet on her head. Her face is not visible beneath the bonnet; she appears to be looking down and the bonnet is blurry as if she had moved her head as the photograph was taken. The woman's shawl hangs down to the ground and is draped behind her chair or stool and all of the children. The family is posed on top of a striped blanket that is on the ground in front of the backdrop. The cloth backdrop is suspended on the outside wall of a wooden building, with some of the wooden slats visible on the left side of the image., [Jennie Peo with children, in camp, or in Moorhouse yard.]

Chief Uma-som-kin—Walla Walla Tribe
Description
An outside photograph of a Native American man, who has been identified as Uma-Som-Kin. He is dressed in full native regalia, and sitting on a horse that is standing next to a river's edge. For his headdress, the man is wearing a bonnet with a single trail of eagle feathers. He is wearing a coat made out of a Pendleton blanket. He is wearing leggings that exhibit a geometrical design on the cuff--perhaps beaded--and beaded moccasins. Because no stirrups can be seen, it would appear that he is riding either bareback or using a blanket for his saddle. He is holding the horse's bridle in his left hand. The horse or pony has a spotted coat. The river disappears around a bend, blending into the hillside in the background. The terrain around the river shows rocks, grass, dirt and brush. On the river's opposite bank is a fence line that runs along the river's path. In the far background is an expanse of rolling hills.
