Nez Percé Indians-Photographs.

Primarily case files (1943-1964) relating to Chase A. Clark's service on the United States District Court in Idaho; also documents concerning Clark's law practice in Mackay, Idaho; and personal and business correspondence, clippings, political materials, and memorabilia. Included are arguments for the pardon of Harry Orchard and a photograph of an Indian baseball team from DeSmet, Idaho.

These papers contain original, typescript, and copies of letters written by E. Jane Gay during her residence on the Nez Perce Indian Reservation in Idaho, 1889-1892. Also included are notes and marginal notes. The recipients of the correspondence are not specifically identified but research indicates the original letters were sent to family and friends in Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Washington, D.C. The collection represents the working copy of a manuscript entitled "Choup-nit-ki."
