Panel 4 in a series of 20 panels. A large eagle is drawn in the top centre of the image, with wings spread. The head is turned to the side and slightly raised, showing a large round eye and sharp hooked beak. Wings and torso are decorated in formline style. Feet extend toward the surface of a river running through the drawing from top middle to bottom. Beneath the water is a large stylized fish with split tail, and formline designs on back and face. A long orange fish swims across the image. In the background is a dense forest of vined trees alongside the river. Covered with plexi frame.

Panel 1 in a series of 20 panels. Drawing of a deerskin war shirt. The shoulders of the shirt fill the drawing at the top; the neck is squared and sewn to the front with thread giving way at the right seam. Fringe hangs along the shirt’s right side top to bottom, with similar on parts of the left. The shirt appears to be arm-less. Images on the shirt are in traditional patterns showing birds, animals and whales in red, white and black formline. Covered with plexi frame.

This appears to be a cedar bark mat, rather than grass as originally catalogued. In the 1980's, Jane Walsh found a label in Charles Pickering's hand: "Sts. de Fuca - A. L. Case - Ex Ex V". If this label is correct, the mat would probably be Northwest Coast, rather than Shasta.
