The inscription reads: "Pictures drawn by Wild Hog and other northern Cheyenne Indian. Cheifs [sic] while in the Dodge City jail in May 1879," with the signature "Jas. Clayton." James H. Clayton served as a clerk to the Kansas Legislature's 1879 Indian Claims Commission. The small ledger art booklet is tan with brown edging and binding.

Although Wild Hog is the first man listed, others are referenced as well as "other Northern Cheyenne Indian cheifs [sic]."
