Studio portrait of two small children with an infant. There is a caption written at a later date, probably by Cumberland County Historical Society staff, that identifies them as the children of Indian School staff members (and former students) Richard Davis and Nellie Aspenall Davis. That makes the two small children Richenda and Mary Davis, who also appear in other photographs. The infant is probably Esther Davis, who was born in 1892.

Richenda and Mary were not enrolled as students.

The What-So-Evers were a "circle" or a subgroup of the female student group the King's Daughters. 

The Cumberland County Historical Society has two copies of this image: PA-CH3-085 and 10-B-22. Caption on the back of the latter copy says that the photograph was taken for the leader of the group, Miss Shaffner.

On the reverse is written: "To Hannah Long Wolf, June 15 1893 From Cousin W. W. Bear." 

Presumably one of the students picture is William White Bear and the others are probably also people from his community.

The Carlisle Indian School exhibit titled Into Civilization and Citizenship at the World's Fair in 1893 held in Chicago, Illinois. The exhibit includes images of students, mannequins representing students, and other artifacts. 

This image appears in United States Indian School Carlisle, Penna (Carlisle, PA: The School, [1895?]), p. 38. The caption reads: THE WORLD'S FAIR EXHIBIT.

The exhibit of Carlisle School at the World's Fair compared avorably with the exhibits from other industrial schools of the country, and won for Carlisle diplomas from the Department of Liberal Arts and the Department of Agriculture. The School has also been awarded medals for exhibits made in Paris and Madrid, and other diplomas on less important occasions.

The Cumberland County Historical Society also has a copy of this image (PA-CH3-019a). 

It is possible this image was taken by student photographer John Leslie.
