The photograph dated 1882 showed three figures, two male figures and one female. The photograph was faded and had been grainy to start with, but it was apparent that the two men pictured were none other than Gassy Jack and Gimpy John Dawson. The female figure is believed to have been Dawson’s Indian wife who was called Lily and she is holding in her arms what looks to be a Bear cub, bundled up in a blanket like a child.
