Summary

Description
Eonah-pah and Wife

Eonah-pah (Trailing-the-Enerny) was the only Kiowa who was in the Battle of the Washita; he had been spending the night in Black Kettle's camp when Custer attacked. He was a very active warrior, taking part in most of the better-known Kiowa expeditions against the Utes, Texans, and Mexicans. He married two of Satanta's daughters, one of whom is shown here with him. This woman, Alma, who was still living in 1935, was then a big, jolly percon, very friendlly and well liked. Notice the large number of elk teeth on her dress. Each of these was worth several dollars. It is to be noted also that she bears a resemblance to her famous father.
