The U.S. Government Peace Commission, comprised of civilian and military leaders
with experience in Indian affairs, traveled to Laramie, Wyoming to investigate the
conditions of the Arapaho, Northern Cheyenne, Crow and the Brule, Oglala and
Miniconjou Sioux. The purpose of their mission was to put a permanent end to Indian
hostilities, restrict Indians to reservations and open up land for settlement.
Treaties were signed with the various tribes in the spring of 1868. Alexander
Gardner was the government photographer accompanying the commission to document the
participants and the area in and around Fort Laramie.
