content: Circular. E261059-0 and E261059-2 have labels indicating they were made by students at Wichita School. Therefore E261059-1 and E261059-3 may have the same provenance. In 1871 just north of Anadarko, Oklahoma at the old Wichita Indian Agency commissary, Quakers opened the Wichita School. It became the Wichita-Caddo School in 1872. It later became a federal boarding school; in 1878-79 the facility was relocated one mile west to its present location along the Washita River and was named Riverside Indian School. For a half-century Riverside served Wichita, Caddo, and Delaware students.
