RICHARD HENRY PRATT (1840-1924)
Richard Henry Pratt devoted his life to public service, beginning as a soldier in the Civil War and later fighting Indians on thefrontier. It was on the frontier that Pratt came in contact with the American Indian and began developing the theories thatwere to guide him throughout his life.
It was Pratt's belief that the American Indian, although leading a savage and uncivilized life, was fully capable of beingeducated and absorbed into American society. Pratt gained support for this view when he commanded a group of seventy-two Indian prisoners at St. Augustine, Florida, in 1875. Through education and humane treatment, Pratt believed that eventhe most "savage" of Indians might become educated and law abiding citizens.
Pratt's efforts resulted in the founding of the Carlisle Indian Industrial School at Carlisle, Pennsylvania, in 1879. As headof the school, Pratt stressed both academic and industrial education. He believed that if the Indian was to claim his rightfulplace as an American citizen, he must renounce his tribal way of life, abandon the reservation, and seek education andemployment among the "best classes" of Americans.
During his superintendency of the Carlisle School, Pratt became an outspoken opponent of tribal segregation onreservations. He believed that this system as administered and encouraged by the Indian Bureau was hindering theeducation and civilization of the Indian and creating helpless wards of the state. These views inevitably led to conflicts withthe Indian Bureau and the government officials who supported the reservation system. Long standing animosities cameto a head in May of 1904 when Pratt strongly denounced the Indian Bureau and the reservation system as a hindrance tothe civilization and assimilation of the Indian. This controversy, coupled with earlier disputes with the government over civilservice reform, led to Pratt's forced retirement as superintendent of the Carlisle School in 1904. This did not, however, endPratt's long career as a crusader for Indian causes. A tireless speaker and letter writer, he waged a vigorous campaign forthe fair and humane treatment of the American Indian until his death in 1924.
Description of the Papers
The papers of Richard Henry Pratt provide valuable information on the still controversial question of the proper treatment ofthe American Indian. The papers span Pratt's long career as an Army officer, educator, and crusader for Indian causes.
Richard Henry Pratt papersWA MSS S-1174 - Page 6
The papers are divided into six series. Series I, General Correspondence and Official Papers (p. 7)consists of officialArmy papers as well as Pratt's incoming and outgoing letters. Pratt made copies of most of his letters. These copies, eithercarbons, drafts, or volumes of letterpress impressions, are filed chronologically as Outgoing Letters and provide a verycomplete record of his letter writing. Incoming Letters are arranged alphabetically by author.
The main subject of Pratt's correspondence until 1904 was the founding and administration of the Carlisle Indian IndustrialSchool. His correspondence reveals Pratt's efforts to gain support for the school from Indians, the government, and privatedonors as well as the day to day difficulties in the actual management of the school. In addition, there is correspondence withformer Indian students like Howard E. Gansworth, Dr. Carlos Montezuma, and Chauncey Yellow Robe on the position andproblems of Indians in America.
Pratt corresponded with many prominent Americans interested in the plight of the Indian. These correspondents include:Lyman Abbott (10 items), Samuel C. Armstrong (101 items), Spencer F. Baird (21 items), Rudolph Blankenburg (14 items),James W. Champney (18 items), Clara B. Colby (2 items), Henry L. Dawes (31 items), W. Maslin Frysinger (22 items),Henry G. Ganns (39 items), Howard E. Gansworth (22 items), Franklin K. Lane (18 items), John D. Miles (145 items), CarlosMontezuma (122 items), Knute Nelson (34 items), Arthur C. Parker (45 items), Carl Schurz (12 items), and Cato Sells (13items).
Official Papers contains material on Pratt's early Army career and his experiences with Indian prisoners at St. Augustine. Thissection contains reports, orders, official correspondence and communications. Information about Pratt's early experimentswith Indian education and on the establishment of the Carlisle School may also be found here.
Series II, Family Correspondence (p. 30), contains Pratt's letters to and from members of his family. Also included in thisseries is the correspondence of his daughter, Nana Pratt Hawkins; his wife, Anna Laura Pratt; his son, Mason Delano Pratt;his grandson, R. H. Pratt, II; his granddaughter, Sarah Pratt; his son-in-law, Guy LeRoy Stevick; and his daughter, MarionPratt Stevick. Of special interest is Pratt's correspondence with his wife about his experiences with Indians while serving inthe Army and about the founding of the Carlisle School. The correspondence of Pratt's children details their futile efforts tohave Pratt's autobiographical work published after his death. Correspondence between Pratt's children and Elaine GoodaleEastman, author of Pratt: The Red Man's Moses, reveal the preparation of and reaction to this biography.
The correspondence of Mason D. Pratt offers some insight into Pratt's experiences at St. Augustine, Florida. Details aboutPratt's role in the Sioux Commission of 1888 are found in the correspondence of his son-in-law, Guy LeRoy Stevick.
The third series,Addresses, Diaries, Writings, and Notes (p. 37), contains copies of articles and addresses by Pratt whichprovide a good source for Pratt's beliefs on Indian education and civilization. In addition, there are several versions of Pratt'sautobiographical work and also four diaries which recount Pratt's activities during the Civil War.
Series IV, Photographs and Drawings (p. 41), contains numerous photographs of the facilities and students of the CarlisleIndian Industrial School. There are also a large number of photographs of Pratt. Other subjects include the Indian prisonersof St. Augustine and Fort Marion, their place of confinement. Of special interest are the "before and after" pictures of manyIndians that contrast their "savage" appearance upon arrival at the Carlisle School with the "civilized" appearance afterreceiving the benefits of an education. There are negatives for many of the photographs in this series. Contact prints havebeen made for the glass plate negatives, and the originals have been placed in Restricted Fragile, where they may beconsulted only with the approval of the appropriate curator.
This series also includes many drawings made by Indians at St. Augustine and Carlisle. These drawings are of interest notonly because of their artistic merit, but because of what they reveal about the Indian's way of life and his perception of thechanging world. A series of drawings by a Kiowa Indian, Etahdleuh Doanmoe, relate in pictorial form his journey from theplains to imprisonment in St. Augustine and his experiences in captivity.
Series V, Clippings, Scrapbooks, and Miscellaneous Publications (p. 44), contains a large amount of newspaper clippings,both loose and in scrapbooks, that chronicle Pratt's activities from the St. Augustine days to the end of his career. Twoscrapbooks in this series are devoted to press reactions to the Sioux Commission of 1888 of which Pratt was a member.
The sixth series, Special Files (p. 46), contains assorted biographical materials about Pratt and miscellaneous materialson the Carlisle Indian Industrial School.
