The portraits of D. F. Barry of Long
Feather show possibly the Blackfoot Chief with that name.
I saw the pictures designated by Barry as Hunkpapa, but
most photographs of Barry are labelled so, and obviously
some of them wrongly.
According
to Walter S. Campbell (aka Stanley Vestal), Utley and
others, agency officials in late 1876 were sending peace
talkers to the camps of the Northern Indians to ask them
to come in. Bear´s Face and Long Feather came to
Sitting Bull from Standing Rock. Campbell stated only
that both men were from Standing Rock. Utley writes that
“Long Feather and another Hunkpapa from Standing Rock
had come on a mission of peace.”
I would suggest that this Long Feather could only be the
Blackfoot Chief, there is no Hunkpapa chief of that name
in my books or papers.
I
don´t know anything else about this Long Feather,
but he must have been a man of peace and friendly to the
whites. Perhaps the crucifix around his neck and the company
of Father Craft in the group photo show that he wanted
to be on good terms with the missionaries or had been
baptised already.
