Mount, Verso:
u.c. typewritten label: A chief of the Yampahs and formerly a man of \ siderable influence, which he has lost, however, \ through several petty thieving excursions which he \ has led against the whites. He has but few followers \ left, and is one of the few mischievous Utes. In 1868, \ was delegated to go to Washington, and while there \ was considered to have equal influence with ouray, \ both being in favor of the treaty made that year. \ Speaks Engllish well, has considerable intelligence, \ and a good knowledge of the customs of the whites, \ but since his repudiation by his tribe he has not come \ in contact with them much.
