64 ANNUAL REPORT SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION, 195 7 



A gift of 26 glass negatives of outdoor and studio portraits of 

 Indians of the Southwest, principally Apaches, was made by Dr. E. M. 

 Wurster of Williamsport, Pa., through John Witthoft, of the Penn- 

 sylvania State Museum. The photographs are believed to have been 

 taken by a photographer named Eames. 



Two groups of photographic prints were obtained for reference pur- 

 poses from other institutions (which retain the negatives and the right 

 to grant publication permission). Both groups are photographs of 

 drawings made by Robert Ormsby Sweeny in Minnesota in 1852, the 

 year in which he first settled in St. Paul. One set of prints was re- 

 ceived from the British Museum and was made from that institution's 

 collection of 20 original drawings by Sweeny. Another set of 20 

 photographs represents a selection from a group of more than 60 

 Sweeny drawings pertaining to Indian subjects in the collections of the 

 Minnesota Historical Society. 



ILLUSTRATIONS 



The illustrator on the staff of the Bureau devoted his time to the 

 preparation of a variety of maps, graphs, and diagrams, the designing 

 of charts, the restoration and retouching of photographs, and the 

 preparation of various other illustrative work. An appreciable 

 amount of time was allocated to making drawings for other depart- 

 ments of the Institution.
