Shirt and Pants with Suspenders

Sterling may have been wearing an outfit like this when he fished in the Brule River! The shirt is in the textile collection of the Wisconsin Historical Society and belonged to Elliott Fox Kaiser from Pepin City, Wisconsin. Elliott was about five or six years old when he wore the blue-and-white woven striped cotton shirt in 1901.
