    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Candid side view photograph of Mrs. George Walters holding an eagle staff taken during festivities, possibly the June 14th Celebration. Two men in citizen&#039;s dress stand in the background. Woman with ankle-length cotton skirt and tartan shawl partially visible at left. Mrs. Walters&#039; strap dress has ribbons around the hem, above which is a band of floral beadwork. Above this is a row of tassels placed at intervals of about 8-10 inches apart, and extending down about 6-7 inches. The dress is worn with a loomwoven beaded belt. The separate sleeves are trimmed with ribbon. ]]></dcterms:description>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Jane Walters of Leech Lake, MN, AKA Shaw Wash E Quey, was the daughter of Mi-Gisins (Little Eagle) and the wife of George Walters. She no doubt participated in the lace-making program at Leech Lake, while at the same time she remained embedded in traditional customs, being chosen to carry the eagle staff at the White Earth June 14th Celebration and always seen wearing a strap dress. This is one of six photographs of Jane Walters found at three different institutions. Follow the links in the Relations field to see the others.]]></dcterms:abstract>
