  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Umatilla indian agency, erected 1863, log building; PH036_5538 Year: 1900 A view of a one-room log cabin identified as the "office of the U.S. Indian Agent Umatilla Agency erected in 1863". The cabin appears to stand on a small rise; deciduous trees are visible off to the left, and grass and low shrubs behind. In the background is a view of a river and distant shore. The cabin is built of rough-hewn logs, slightly notched, with chinking. Some of the chinking between the logs has chipped away in some spots. The roof is constructed of wooden shingles, some of which appear to be peeling or flaking. The cabin looks as though it has been modified from an earlier state: there is a heap of rock at the gable end, in front of an opening now blocked with boards. The roof at that end has a gap left, as though for a chimney; it seems likely the remains of the chimney are the rocks on the ground. The door too may have been modified; in the photo the door jambs are wide boards nailed over logs, rather than fitted in with them. The door now takes up half the long side of the cabin, and is ill-fitting, with two wide doors with hinges that open outward and wide gaps under both doors. Two long poles protrude from under and between the doors. At the right side of the cabin two metal rings have been driven into one of the logs, and a chain hangs from one of them.

The foreground of the photo shows grass with some branches lying on it. To the right is a long trench, behind which can be seen eight tipis. In the middle ground a trail bisects the encampment. Beyond it are a tent, and at least four more canvas tipis and the skeleton of another. On the trail at the far right is a buggy. A number of horses, some with saddlebags, are at the side of the trail. Beyond the skeleton tipi is another group of horses, and a person with his back to the camera, who may be wearing a pack or may be a woman with an infant in a cradleboard. Farther in the background another figure stands in front of more horses. Standing on the trail to the left, in front of a tipi, is a man wearing a broad-brimmed hat and a blanket and trousers. He also has his back to the camera. Behind the encampment runs a row of deciduous trees. It looks as though there may be a wooden structure behind the trees. A low mountain range is in the background.

Moorhouse and Wards' Umatilla Reservation. The number 5054 is written in the bottom left corner of the photo. Major Lee Moorhouse and two Native American children are seen in front of a tule-mat-and-canvas tipi. A wooden ladder leans against the right side of the tipi, along with some wooden poles. A striped blanket has been placed on the ground in front of the tipi, partly propped up by some unseen object, and two small children are on the blanket. The girl, who wears a scarf tied over her head, is sitting on the left side. She seems to be wearing a cloth shawl over a cloth dress. Standing to the right of her, next to Maj. Moorhouse, is a young boy, who appears to be wearing overalls topped with a dark cloth jacket missing all but the top button. His shoulder-length hair is cut in bangs. He wears European-style shoes or boots. Next to him squats the major in profile to the camera. His left hand is closest to the camera, and in it he holds the carcasse or hide of a small furry animal. The major wears a light-colored felt hat, a high-collar white shirt with a gingham patterned cravat, a vest, and striped wool trousers tucked into boots. He wears a buckskin jacket which is fringed at the seams and along the bottom and faced with fur. The front of the open jacket is also decorated with beadwork using floral motifs. Aside from a moustache, the major is clean-shaven. He is looking down towards the little boy. On the blanket in front of the children lies a semi-cylindrical basket with a geometric pattern woven in dark colors on a light background; the basket appears to have straps.

Seven adults stand on the front porch of the home, posed for a portrait with a baby who is perched on a pillow on the railing of the porch, next to one of its two columns. The baby is being supported by one of the men. There is some snow on the ground. The men wear hats and suits. Several of the women wear white blouses and long dark skirts; a couple others wear long dark dresses. The baby is all in white. The house is neo-Dutch Colonial in style. The clapboard walls of its lower story are painted white while the shingled second and third stories are a darker shade. Curtains can be seen behind the glass windows. In the foreground of the photograph is the wooden framework of a fence, filled in with chicken wire. Tall trees stand behind the fence, and they are nearly bare of leaves, giving a good view of two dormer windows on the second floor and a brick chimney at the right side of the roof.
