There is no identification on this cabinet photograph. It is an albumen image of the late 1880s. The young woman appears to be of mixed Indian/White race. However, she could also be pure Indian. I find it hard to determine.  It really does not matter. She is dressed in American Indian costume including moccasins and holds two rifles; a single shot target rifle and a 1873 Winchester rifle.  She wears an Indian feathered headdress. I LIKE her! This is a cool image of the period.   It was taken by  F. M. Titus, Ohio. Some damage to the mount but the image itself is sharp and clear.
