Inscription	Inscription: Signed and dated lower left: FREDERIC REMINGTON/1890;Inscription: Label on back of picture: memorandum from Sage & Schoonmaker, 34 West 44 St., New York: This picture by Frederic Remington represents a scene in Custer's Massacre where members of the 4th (74th?) Troopers are taking led horses away from the battle front. Mr. Merle Johnson, 234 West 44th Street, recommended to me by Miss Capen, has a photograph of this picture and has given me this information.
