Mitchell, William G. Transcript of negotiations between Little Raven and Winfield Scott Hancock and related material, 1867-1917.

Title: Transcript of negotiations between Little Raven and Winfield Scott Hancock and related material, 1867-1917.

Official manuscript transcript by William G. Mitchell of a preliminary meeting between Little Raven, a Southern Arapaho Indian leader, and Major General Winfield Scott Hancock at Fort Dodge, Kansas, April 28, 1867, which Mitchell prepared for Little Raven. The ensuing negotiations led to the Medicine Lodge Treaty, a set of three treaties between the United States and the Kiowa, Comanche, Plains Apache, Southern Cheyenne, and Southern Arapaho signed in October 1867. Two photographs accompany the transcript. One is a portrait photograph of Little Raven, probably created by William Stinson Soule at Fort Dodge, Kansas, circa 1867. The other photograph is a group portrait that consists of Little Raven and his daughter, Annie Little Raven; Yellow Bear and his daughter, Minnie Yellow Bear; and Left Hand and his son, Grant Left Hand, circa 1879. It was created by Frederick Gutekunst of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, when the Arapaho Indian men visited their children at the Carlisle Indian School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. The collection includes a letter by Cato Sells, the Commissioner of Indian Affairs, January 25, 1917, which certifies that Little Raven, a son of the elder leader, was a member of a delegation of Cheyennes and Arapahos from Oklahoma visiting Washington, D.C.

In particular, Roper had close ties to people in the business community and was sympathetic to their concerns. In addition, the collection tracks the course of the New Deal in the Department of Commerce and the career of Roper not only as a United States government official in Roosevelt's cabinet but also as a progressive Democrat.
