1863 [was date of removal; see BAE Bulletin 30]

"This picture was photographed at Fort Snelling at the time of the removal of the Winnebagoes in 1865. [Note: should be 1863.] Winne-Sheik refused to go with his band to the new reservation, and it was necessary to send soldiers for him. The council with his chiefs followed the solemn feast of dog meat and beans, at which they appear in gala dress." -- Caption with original photograph.
