u.c. [typed on paper label]: 657 -8. VILLAGE IN SOUTH PASS \ During the expedition of 1870, the United States Geo- \ logical Survey of the Territories came across the above \ village of Shoshones, numbering nearly one hundred lodges \ encamped among the southern foot-hills of the Wind River \ Mountains, where the above and some of the following \ views were secured. They were under the well-known chief \ Washakie, and were on their way to the Wind River Valley \ to hunt buffalo for the winter's supply of food and clothing. \ Although the village had all the appearance of being a per- \ manent abiding-place, yet the following morning, before the \ sun was an hour high, there was not a tent in sight, and the \ last pack-pony with trailing lodge-poles had passed out of \ sight over the hills to the eastward.
