![Six Alaskan students upon arrival [version 1], 1897](/sites/default/files/styles/views_image/public/image-photo/NAA_73313.jpg?itok=MVa-xUOb "Six Alaskan students upon arrival [version 1], 1897")
Studio portrait of Annie Coodlalook (far left), Tomiclock (second from left), Laublock (standing in center), Anna Buck (second from right), Cooki Glook (far right), and Esenetuck (seated in front). All are wearing clocks with fur-timmed hoods. This photo seems to have been taken shortly after their arrival at the school in November, 1897.
Note: This is a photograph of a photgraph. Previous cataloging states that there is a date of October 1897 on this image (which is probably incorrect) and that these students were brought to Carlisle by Dr. Sheldon Jackson.

Studio portrait of Geneva Jamison.
Note: Two students named Geneva Jamison attended Carlisle, both from the Seneca nation. This image is probably of the Geneva Jamison who arrived in 1898 and departed in 1901. She is sometimes known as Geneva B. Jamison and was 11 years old when she enrolled. Since the other Geneva Jamison arrived in 1895 and departed in 1898, a date has been assigned to this image that accomodates them both.
