Female student posed with one white man, presumably an interpreter, and three Native Americans. 

Part of a scrapbook compiled by William Winneshiek (Winnebago), who wrote the caption "Montana Chiefs . . . Cheyenne, Osage + Sioux . . . Interpreter Greeting a Daughter A Daugther At Carlisle 1913." 

Winneshiek appears to be mistaken, as this appears to have been taken on the occasion when a group of Blackfeet dignitaries visited the school for commencement in early April of 1913. Based on comparision with other photos of this occastion (see Related Images) we believe this student is Blanche Jollie.
