The Indian boys soon become adepts in this trade, forging the horseshoe and setting it, learning to fashion the iron to any desired shape, working bar steel into tools with skill and readiness hardly credible unless witnessed.
This image appears in United States Indian School Carlisle, Penna (Carlisle, PA: The School, [1895?]), p. 45. No prints of this image have yet been located.
Because no prints or negatives of this image have yet been found, we believe this photograph was probably taken by student photographer John Leslie.
