The Cumberland County Historical Society has two copies of this image: PA-CH2-075c and CS-CH-035. 

Studio portrait of Nancy McIntosh.

Photograph of a photograph of Sun Chief (La-Roo-Chuk-A-La-Shur). The handwritten caption indicates he is from the Pawnee nation. 

Photographer J.N. Choate took a photograph of this image, presumably so that he could reproduce it and sell it himself. He may have taken the original, but he might not have. No other copies of this image have yet been found among the Carlisle-related images so it's possible Sun Chief was not a visitor to the school and has no connection to the school. 

Studio portrait of a visiting chief with a male student.

Previous cataloging interpreted the name of the student as something like Van Moore. There are no records for a student by that name.

The later pencil caption below the original cursive caption was written by Cumberland County Historical Society staff.

Studio portrait of a visitor to the school, presumably a chief. He is identified on the reverse as Roan Horse from the Apache nation. 

The Cumberland County Historical Society's version of this image identifies him as Ai-sia-tiw-me or Comanche John. 

Note: A researcher has indicated that Comanche John was actually Comanche, but that he had run away to Mescalero Apache in 1879.

Students working in the print shop. 

Note: This image shows the left side of the print shop. NAA 73577 (see Related Images) shows the right side of the print shop. In NAA 73243 (see Related Images) prints of both images are combined to create a panoramic image of the print shop.

This building was demolished in July 1888 and replaced with a new building for the same purpose.

The Cumberland County Historical Society has three copies of this image: PA-CH1-002, 10A-C-02, and 12-08-03.

There are currently no known prints of this photograph.
