Fremont's Party Surprised
1860: An engraving published by Virtue & Company of New York in 1860 is titled 'Fremont's Party Surprised'. The print, engraved by W. Ridgway, depicts American explorer Kit Carson pointing to an apparition of an old Indian woman as she appears beside a campfire during John C. Fremont's second expedition of the West in 1845. According to Fremont's journal, she 'had thought it a camp of her people' who had abandoned her. Given food, she bolted into the darkness, he wrote. (Photo by Robert Alexander/Getty Images)
