• Jim Peters' wickiop, Tama, IA. 5/5/1916. "This family has a frame house--shown in the background, this wickiop which is their winter residence, and a regular indian summer-house, the interior of which is shown on another page of this May 5, '16 write-up. Mr. Ellis said: 'The indians for most part have not yet moved out of the wickiops into their summer houses'. A dog feast was scheduled for this (Friday, May 5) afternoon and last week Chief Pushetonekequa gave a dog feast at which he served ten dogs to his guests."

• Indian home near Sac & Fox "Stamping Grounds." Summer house on left. "An indian residence adjoining the Sac & Fox 'Stamping Grounds'. A good-looking indian girl of 12 or 14 years of age, came outside and asked me to send her a picture. I offered to take hers, but she would go into the house--the little house at the right, and when I asked where to mail her one she said "The Mission" but I didn't get her name. The Summer house is on the left."

• Building - "Indian Stamping Grounds." "This is another of the 'Indian Stamping Grounds' buildings--probably a 'stand' as whites would call it--but I do not know. Another was a few feet away, from which I took some matting made of reeds or 'cat-tail' swamp growth--I took it for our R.I. County Historical Collections."
