I-aw-Beance--a Chippewa. A man of delicate features, fine form, great activity, and a very amiable disposition. He is somewhat of a dandy, but deals less in paint than most of his people, a little touch of green, and a slight portion of vermillion satisfied him. [P. 22.]
Catalogue of One Hundred and Fifteen Indian Portraits, representing eighteen different tribes, accompanied by a few brief remarks on the character, &c. of most of them. Price 12 1/2 cents.
