Heard. (RB 246053). There are notes in ink on the backs of the items, part of which say that they were purchased in St. Paul, Minnesota, in 1862 from D. Wilson Howe, and that the names and translations were made by Rev. Stephen R. Riggs, missionary. The note on the drawing verso identifies the original portrait photographer as Adrian Ebell.
