Thomas Fitzpatrick's Quarters - a photo on Flickriver

Thomas Fitzpatrick's Quarters

            Indian Agent Thomas “Broken Hand” Fitzpatrick worked here as an Indian trader in 1847-49. He was formerly a trapper and fur trader, and he argued for removing alcohol from the Indian trade. Instead, he wanted to sell Indians farm tools to encourage them to adopt agriculture - a pretty optimistic view of the land in arid eastern Colorado.

The elk hide on the wall is a “Winter Count,” where American Indians painted events of the year as a form of record keeping.
