Caddo Women taking repatriation of Ghost Dance Pole into their own hands - Dolores Purdy Corcoran
A ledger drawing with five figures in ghost dance dresses sit on horses on the left to middle of the page. The two in the middle of the page carry a Ghost Dance Pole between them which is a black and green line ontop of each other. They seem to be racing away from three figures in police outfits on horses. Each police officer's horse reads a different phrase. Starting from top to bottom: "POT HUNTER" "GRAVE ROBBER" "ARTIFACT THIEF" The top left of the page says "RECORD OF PAROLED PERSONS," and the top right of the page says "DISTRICT COURT, OSAGE COUNTY, KANSA" The title of the drawing is written on the right side of the picture but near the middle. The bottom right says "Dolores Purdy Corcoran '07"A ledger drawing with five figures in ghost dance dresses sit on horses on the left to middle of the page.
