Leather rattle with wooden handle and decorative beadwork. On one end of the rattle, there are coarse dark and lighter brown hairs protruding. The hairs are wrapped into the rattle with fabric that looks similar in width and texture to medical tape. The same hair also appears to be stitched into the fabric on the underside of the rattle. The rattle is wrapped with the fabric until about half-way along the handle. After this point there are many strings of small beads wrapped around the handle. The beads are grey, white, red, green, and yellow. After the beads, the handle narrows and then extends into a bulbous leather rattle. There are small stitches around the skin section and the thinner part of the handle. There are unknown pieces of something inside the rattle, to make the noise.

Gift of Mr. and Mrs. Alastair B. Martin, the Guennol Collection

Spear supposedly belonging to Crazy Horse, with hide and bead trimming and iron head. This was given to Dr. Brooks by the daughter of General Brown.Although titled as singular "spear" there were two numbers assigned to it. If this did not indicate the two component parts- shaft and fringe trim- then an additional piece is missing.

This pipe has a long, wood stem with brass tacks along the length. The pipe bowl is made from a reconfigured metal spear of shaft with a French style fleur-de-lye design shape and engravings.
