content: Rushing Bear is cited as being as being in Washington in June, 1880, with a delegation by Garrick Mallery in "First Annual Report of the BAE," page 406. He also appears demonstrating sign language in uncaptioned illustrations on pages 393 and 492 (photographs from which these illustrations were made are in the Bureau of American Ethnology Negative files under "Sign Language.") Although in the sign language prints he is wearing different pants and headdress, he is wearing the same shirt, and appears to be the same age. In Bell Negative 276 (S. I. Negative 52,515) he was photographed with Lean Wolf, the Hidatsa, who was also in Washington, in June, 1880, and was an informant for the Mallery study.
