content: From card: "Hard soled moccasins. There is a band of beadwork running around the lower portion of the upper above the seam and around the top. The rest of the upper is decorated in bands of porcupine quill embroidery and also U-shaped bands [horse tracks?] of porcupine quill embroidery. The tongue is beaded and terminates in fringed leather which has been wrapped with porcupine quills. On bottom of one of these moccasins is written: "worn by Crazy Horse Genl. Lawton 5041"".
label: Notes
content: The ink notation on the sole of the moccasins is the only information in Anthropology records linking the moccasins to Crazy Horse. The source of this information is unknown. It may be speculated that the "Genl. Lawton" referred to may be Henry Ware Lawton. See also shield E359063 which is marked as from Crazy Horse and General Lawton.
