Three of Spokane Chief Garry's Men - c. 1860

Three of Chief Garry's inner circle, in this early photograph by the Corps of Royal Engineers. They may be slender, but they look to be all business. Each carries something special: the man on the left has a ceremonial rattle, the man in the middle a very fine rifle, and the man on the right the traditional bow and arrow. -- This photo is restored and printed by Old Oregon.
