I am familiar with William S. Prettyman he often traveled to the Pawnee reservation to take photographs and also took Pawnee photographs in his studio

A battle between over 1000 Cheyennes and there allies attacked 800 Kitkihahki Band Pawnees as they were traveling along the Pawnee trail near the present town of Smith Center in north central Kansas in July 1853. This large engagement is little known but a highly dramatic affair. The Pawnees with the timely help of 80? Potawatomis and their new rifles won the fight Just another episode in the long standing fued between the Southern Cheyennes and the Pawnees.
