content: The photographer was at the Crow Agency only during the years 1897-1910; he took no Indian photographs after leaving the Crow Agency-- information from John Fields (1967), grandson of the photographer.

John Fields doesn't think his grandfather, Miller, was in Montana in 1877, possibly the typed information on the print (as stated in subject) was an error, and should have been 1897 (information to MCB 1967).

The later date of 1897 is most probable because of the light colored 1880s type campaign hats, trapdoor carbines, issue blouses and trousers.-- Information from James Nottage, June 1973; see Guides to Photo Collections, "Military Uniforms" (PJR)
