Scope and content
A group photograph of unidentified members of the Klamath and Modoc tribes taken at Camp Day in 1860. A handwritten caption on the back of the photograph reads, "Indians near Ft. Umpqua? Not so - Klamath and Modoc Indians near Ft. Day - Note Ponderosa pines in background. Photograph by Lt. Lorenzo Lorain."
Camp Day was a temporary military encampment established in the Klamath Basin in Southern Oregon during the summer and fall of 1860. The military expedition was a response to reports of potential conflicts between members of the Klamath and Modoc people and Euro-American settlers concerning land use and territorial rights.
